Tomorrow’s UFC 302 headliner between Islam Makhachev, and Dustin Poirier is now official – with the championship pair successfully making title limit weight for their heated grudge match in Newark.
Makhachev, the incumbent undisputed lightweight champion, is slated to return tomorrow night in New Jersey, headlining UFC 302 in a title defense against former interim gold holder, Poirier.
Sidelined since October of last year, Russian star, Makhachev most recently turned in a dominant first round win over then-featherweight titleholder, Alexander Volkanovski, in the form of a blistering high-kick knockout win.
