The UFC returns to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, with a pay-per-view headlined by Jan Blachowicz and Glover Teixeira and a heavy international flavor, including the return of Khamzat Chimaev.
Blachowicz will be defending his light heavyweight crown for the first time. He won the championship over Israel Adesanya, who was tabbed to fight for it after Jon Jones vacated the title to pursue the heavyweight belt.
It's an important fight for the division as it could be argued that Adesanya was never a true light heavyweight to begin with. In the post-Jones world, the title of champion is still going to be debated until someone brings back some legitimacy as champion.
