The UFC’s 2018 kicks off in two weeks with UFC Fight Night St. Louis, but the real show in January is UFC 220 in Boston, Massachusetts. Here is the full card as it stands:
- Stipe Miocic vs. Francis Ngannou
- Daniel Cormier vs. Volkan Oezdemir
- Gian Villante vs. Francimar Barroso
- Dustin Ortiz vs. Alexandre Pantoja
- Abdul Razak Alhassan vs. Sabah Homasi
- Islam Makhachev vs. Gleison Tibau
- Calvin Kattar vs. Shane Burgos
- Kyle Bochniak vs. Brandon Davis
The two biggest belts in the UFC will be on the line on January 20 as Stipe Miocic defends the heavyweight title from Francis Ngannou, while Daniel Cormier looks to retain the light heavyweight championship opposite Volkan Oezdemir.
It’s the first time the UFC light heavyweight and heavyweight titles have been featured on the same card since UFC 44 in 2003 and both fights promise edge-of-your-seat action.
Worth noting, however, is that just eight bouts have been officially announced for the event as of this writing (UFC 218, by comparison, had 13).
While UFC 220 may still be under construction, it’s worth taking a look over the event as it stands and previewing the fights that have been penned in.
