Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is just a couple of days away from the upcoming UFC 268 pay-per-view (PPV) event, taking place this Sat. night (Nov. 6, 2021) at Madison Square Garden in New York City. That’s where reigning welterweight champion Kamaru Usman will run it back with top-ranked division contender Colby Covington.
In the UFC 268 co-main event, resurgent strawweight titleholder Rose Namajunas will also face a familiar foe in the form of Zhang Weili. “Thug” stripped “Magnum” of the 115-pound strap by way of thunderous knockout in the UFC 261 co-headliner last April, in what marked the first defeat for Weili since joining the promotion back in summer 2018.
All four combatants will be present for today’s UFC 268 media day, streaming LIVE in the embedded video player above. Don’t feel like sitting through the entire fight card? Below are the expected appearance times for each fighter. Covington is expected to take the mic at 12 p.m. ET against 2 p.m. ET for Usman, who previously stopped “Chaos” at UFC 245.
