Saturday's UFC 309 card set the stage for what could turn out to be some of the biggest fights of 2025.
The card went down in New York City, with a suitably substantial headliner. The main event saw former light heavyweight champ Jon Jones defend his title for the first time, stopping former heavyweight champ Stipe Miocic with a third-round kick to the body.
The co-main event was also a big one, with former UFC lightweight champ Charles Oliveira rematching former Bellator lightweight champ Michael Chandler after winning a back-and-forth title fight by decision in 2021. The second time around, Oliveira won a wide unanimous decision — despite a dicey final round.
