UFC 222: Cyborg vs. Kunitskaya fight card

The UFC kicks off March with a pay-per-view event at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. This was supposed to be featherweight champion Max Holloway defending his title against Frankie Edgar, but Holloway is injured and a new title fight is the main event, as women’s featherweight champion Cris Cyborg defends against Invicta FC bantamweight titleholder Yana Kunitskaya. Edgar will instead face Brian Ortega in the co-main.

Also on the main card is bantamweight prospect Sean O’Malley against Andre Soukhamthath, heavyweight veterans Stefan Struve and Andrei Arlovski, plus women’s bantamweight contenders Cat Zingano and Ketlen Vieira.
