With UFC 322 on Saturday, take a closer look at the champion vs. champion title fights that headline the UFC’s return to Madison Square Garden in New York.
In the main event, former lightweight king Islam Makhachev moves up to 170 pounds to face Jack Della Maddalena, fresh off of winning the welterweight title this past May. Will Makhachev cement himself as the No. 1 pound-for-pound fighter in the world or is Della Maddalena poised for an upset and a legacy-defining victory?
Makhachev isn’t the only fighter looking to become a two-division champion. Indomitable strawweight champion Zhang Weili also vacated her title for a shot at a second belt and she is set to fight Valentina Shevchenko for the flyweight title in the UFC 322 co-main event. Not only are these future Hall of Famers battling for gold, the winner could go down in history as the best female fighter to ever compete in MMA.
