Fights on Tap is a weekly roundup of all the fights booked in the UFC, Bellator and other promotions.
The UFC either announced or finalized 12 fights this week, and a new main event for UFC Columbus has been confirmed.
An injury suffered by Jan Blachowicz led to him withdrawing from his fight against Aleksandar Rakiu0107, which was scheduled to serve as the headliner for the aforementioned upcoming event. In need of a short-notice replacement, the promotion found one in a clash between top ten ranked heavyweights. Curtis Blaydes and Chris Daukaus have agreed to meet on March 26, with contracts expected to be signed soon.
