UFC 308 is set to take place at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi, featuring a highly-anticipated featherweight title fight between champion Ilia Topuria and former titleholder Max Holloway. The co-main event will see former middleweight champion Robert Whittaker face undefeated contender Khamzat Chimaev. Weigh-in day revealed some drama, with two fights undergoing changes: Mateusz Rebecki vs. Myktybek Orolbai shifted to a catchweight bout, and Victor Hugo weighing in significantly over the bantamweight limit, which will now see him fight Farid Basharat at a higher weight. Despite these changes, all fighters successfully made weight ahead of the event, which promises high stakes for several bouts. Additionally, fans had the chance to engage with fighters during a Q&A session, including new bantamweight champion Merab Dvalishvili and Alexander Volkanovski. The event will be broadcasted on ESPN+ pay-per-view.
