We are just over 24 hours away from one of the most loaded events of the year as UFC 304 gets underway tomorrow night (Sat., July 27, 2024) live on ESPN+ PPV from inside Co-op Live in Manchester, England. It will feature two title fights and some of the fastest-rising contenders on the roster.
Leading the way will be a main event rematch pitting reigning UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards against streaking contender Belal Muhammad. Edwards is riding a 12-fight win streak and coming off two-straight title defenses, while “Remember The Name” has won his last nine trips to the cage. It is a massive matchup between two of the very best fighters in the world today.
Adding to the mix will be a co-headliner pitting interim UFC heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall against veteran contender Curtis Blaydes. These two met back in 2022, but Aspinall ended up blowing out his knee in the opening seconds of the fight. This is a rematch two years in the making and a clash of the two best heavyweights in the world not named Jon Jones.
On Friday, UFC 304 fighters stepped on stage for final staredowns and one last chance to strike fear into their opponent. Some of them required instant security, while others were cordial. Check out the action below:
