Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is back for another primed event later tonight (Sat., July 25, 2020) at UFC on ESPN 14 live on ESPN/ESPN+ from inside Flash Forum on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, as former UFC middleweight champion Robert Whittaker meets Darren Till in the main event.
UFC on ESPN 14 will mark the fourth event in the past three weeks that the promotion has staged on “Fight Island,” allowing them to host matchups involving international fighters that would have failed to materialize elsewhere. The promotion is likely to return to “Fight Island” in the coming months as COVID-19 restrictions continue to play a role in sports, but for now this is the last installment of UFC’s initial set of events.
While UFC president Dana White left “Fight Island” after last weekend’s card he’s still breaking down the action in a UFC on ESPN 14 preview. It may not be the typical pre-fight media scrum that fans are used to seeing, but White still discussed the best matchups of the weekend and why fight fans everywhere need to tune in.
Check out White’s preview above courtesy of UFC.
Outside of the main event clash between Whittaker and Till, UFC on ESPN 14 will also showcase notable Octagon names like Alexander Gustafsson, Mauricio “Shogun” Rua, Fabricio Werdum, Carla Esparza, Alex Oliveira, and Bethe Correia, as well as slew of promising young talent.
