Check out all the fights announced over the past week in the UFC, Bellator and other promotions.
Fights on Tap is a weekly roundup of all the fights booked in the UFC, Bellator and other promotions.
A bevy of fights were either announced or finalized this week, with 17 of them coming from the UFC. Perhaps the most notable of the group is the championship rematch between welterweight champion Kamaru Usman and Colby Covington set for UFC 268 in November. That event will also feature a lightweight battle between Justin Gaethje and Michael Chandler.
Bellator bolstered its schedule as well. The promotion is returning to London with a card headlined by a welterweight rematch between Douglas Lima and Michael Page in October. Two weeks after that event, the Light Heavyweight World Grand Prix will continue as the semifinal matchups between the remaining four fighters have been made official.
