UFC CEO Dana White has been announcing fights like crazy since the beginning of 2024, and on Friday night he added four more to the list of tantalising bouts on the future.
First, he revealed that the heavyweight bout between Tai Tuivasa and Marcin Tybura has been rescheduled from UFC 298 in February to the main event of UFC bout Night on March 16.
The UFC president then stated that former strawweight champion Rose Namajunas will battle No. 9 rated flyweight Amanda Ribas on March 23 at the UFC APEX.
Namajunas’ most recent fight was a decision loss against flyweight contender Manon Fiorot. She’ll aim to get into the top ten at flyweight, a position well deserved by Ribas, who is coming off a fantastic spinning wheel kick knockout of Luana Pinheiro.
The UFC will return to Atlantic City on March 30, as previously announced, and A.C. now has its main event.
Sean Brady, the No. 7 ranked welterweight, will face all-action finisher and No. 9 ranked Vicente Luque, who is coming off a convincing win over Kelvin Gastelum. It’s a crucial match for the welterweight contenders’ landscape.
Finally, White added another excellent fight to the already star-studded lineup for UFC 300.
