Get results and discuss today’s UFC Vegas 33 event in Vegas on ESPN/ESPN+, which features middleweights in the main event.
Join us today on Bloody Elbow for live results and discussion for UFC Vegas 33 at the APEX facility.
The headliner of the card is a middleweight fight between ranked contenders Uriah Hall (#8) and Sean Strickland (#11). A myriad of cancellations shuffled the bout order so the new co-main event is Cheyanne Buys vs. Gloria de Paula following today’s cancellation of Kyung Ho Kang vs. Rani Yahya.
We’re a bit short-staffed this weekend and let’s be real, this is not a highly anticipated UFC card even by Fight Night standards. Most of our attention will be guided towards Bellator 263, which means we are not doing play-by-play for this UFC card.
This is an ESPN show but it’s also being simulcast on ESPN+. The six-fight preliminary card is scheduled to start at 6:30pm ET/3:30pm PT on ESPN and ESPN+. The five-fight main card will kick off at 9pm ET/6pm PT on the same channels.
