The UFC will begin a stretch on the UAE’s Yas Island with the UFC 251: Usman vs. Masvidal fight on July 11.

In this weekend’s event, welterweight champion Kamaru Usman will go up against 2019 Fighter of the Year Jorge “Gamebred” Masvidal. Plus, it’s a rematch for the featherweight belt when Alexander Volkanovski faces Max Holloway, and Petr Yan and Jose Aldo square off for the bantamweight title. One of the most memorable strawweight bouts of all time also gets a rematch when Rose Namajunas and Jessica Andrade clash, and Paige VanZant returns to face Amanda Ribas.

Fans will not be present for UFC 251, or other upcoming UFC events. The UFC has safety precautions in place for staff including social distancing and medical screenings.
