The UFC is expecting to sell out the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas tonight with an event that highlights two of the most popular, and interesting, characters in the sport. UFC 279 features super prospect turned title contender Khamzat Chimaev taking on the fiercely different Nate Diaz, in what could be his final Octagon appearance.
Many are expecting Chimaev to run through Diaz, but you should never count out a Diaz Brother. And the younger Diaz might well have a trick up his sleeve. Given that Diaz is fighting Chimaev just to see out his UFC contract, there may also be some weirdness on tap.
