All eyes in the fight world are on next week’s UFC 268, which takes place at Madison Square Garden. But before arriving at that destination, there is a Saturday afternoon special from Abu Dhabi with UFC 267.
The card is free for ESPN+ subscribers. Though the card will have some solid fights, there is not a lot of star-power here, plus it starts at an odd time (2 p.m. ET). So, turning what would have been the lowest selling pay-per-view into a free offering is a wise marketing move.
The main event sees Glover Teixeira get one more shot at the gold, taking on light heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz.
