A pivotal contest in the UFC’s 185-pound title picture is now set to go down from Buffalo, New York at UFC 210.

The UFC has announced that former UFC middleweight champ and current No. 4-ranked Chris Weidman will take on No. 5-ranked Gegard Mousasi in Buffalo’s KeyBank Center:

Weidman comes into the bout on a two-fight losing skid after having his undefeated career winning streak snapped by Luke Rockhold at UFC 194 in December of 2015, followed by a flying knee knockout loss to Yoel Romero at UFC 205 from the Madison Square Garden Arena. With a win over Mousasi, ‘The All American’ hopes to once again step into the Octagon for the opportunity to reign as the middleweight champion of the world.

Mousasi is currently on a four-fight win streak over names such as Thales Leites, Thiago Santos, Vitor Belfort, and most recently Uriah Hall. The Dutchman’s last three victories have all come via knockout, as the former Strikeforce champ continues to impress on his quest to UFC championship glory.

UFC 210 will go down live on PPV from the KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York on Saturday April 8, 2017.

UFC 210: Buffalo Plays Host For First Time Since 1995

After over 21 years of absence in the state of New York, the UFC have scheduled their third pay-per-view event in six months (‘210), and their second of this year, since the overturning of the lengthy ban in the state.

During the broadcast of UFC Fight Night 103 on Sunday, it was announced that UFC 210 is set to go ahead on Apr. 8 at KeyBank Center in Buffalo, N.Y. No bouts have been confirmed, however.

UFC 210 is the second New York card announced for 2017. The first jaunt to N.Y is UFC 208, scheduled for the Barclays Center in Brooklyn on Feb. 11. Fans on the East Coast are certainly feeling a welcome surge in activity following the overturning of the ban on pro MMA last year.

This event is not the first time that UFC has visited Buffalo, however. Fans may be able to cast their memories back as long as September 1995, where UFC 7 took place at the Memorial Auditorium. The top card of the night featured UFC hall-of-famer Ken Shamrock and UFC 6 champion Oleg Taktarov.

UFC 208 was originally scheduled to go down live on pay-per-view (PPV) from the Honda Center in Anaheim, California on January 21, 2017, but it has been announced by the UFC that is no longer the case.

UFC officials have announced that the event will be moved to February 11th in Brooklyn, originally set to be UFC 209, from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. UFC 209 will now be moved to Las Vegas in March which was originally set to be UFC 210:

UFC® announced today that its Jan. 21 Pay-Per-View event at Honda Center in Anaheim, California has been rescheduled to Aug. 5. The event will remain a Pay-Per-View broadcast. UFC 208 will be shifted to the Feb. 11 event at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

Anaheim will get a pay-per-view (PPV) event when the UFC returns there on August 5. The reason for the major shuffle is due to the lack of possible headliners for the previously scheduled Anaheim PPV, as all champions were either booked or nursing injuries.

The UFC 208 PPV from Anaheim was also originally set to go head-to-head with the Chael Sonnen vs. Tito Ortiz event from the Forum in Inglewood, California, but now it seems that spotlight will be all Bellator’s come January 21.
