The Ultimate Fighting Championship kicks off the month of March with UFC 259, a blockbuster pay-per-view featuring three championship bouts.
In the main event, middleweight champion Israel Adesanya moves up to light heavyweight to take on 205-pound champion Jan Blachowicz in an effort to become the promotion’s latest two-division champion.
In the co-main event, two-division women’s champion Amanda Nunes puts her featherweight belt on the line against top contender Megan Anderson.
And if that wasn’t enough, bantamweight titleholder Petr Yan defends his strap against the always exciting Aljamain Sterling.
