After Jamahal Hill vacated the light heavyweight title, the UFC set up a bout that looks guaranteed to create fireworks.

But before they meet, Britain’s heavyweight hope, Aspinall, will put it all on the line when he takes on Pavlovich. And while his Russian rival hits with destructive power, former middleweight champion, Michael Bisping, is convinced his countryman can emerge victorious en route to cementing his legacy as the most dominant fighter in the history of the division.
In an interview with Betway, he said: “Tom absolutely can become the best heavyweight of all time. Tom’s doing a Bisping – in terms of the short notice. But Tom’s going to surpass my career. Tom’s going to make my career look like an amateur career. Tom’s going to reign supreme in the heavyweight division for a very long time.”
So, with a sense of excitement in the air, let’s have a look at how you can tune in for an epic night of entertainment.
