Three Title Fights Will Define UFC 259's Impressive Card

UFC 259 delivers an extremely impressive card, highlighted by three different title fights that offer massive implications.

In addition to star power, the card is stocked with emerging talent like Islam Makhachev. Ultimately, this show will be defined by championship gold. The main event features middleweight champion Israel Adesanya moving up in weight class to challenge light heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz, and two other title bouts include Amanda Nunes—a main-event talent on a dominant run—defending her featherweight championship against Megan Anderson, as well as bantamweight champion Petr Yan in his first title defense, taking on an incredibly talented opponent in Aljamain Sterling.
