Dana White, the big boss at UFC, is pumped. After a smashing 2023 event, he’s all in for another epic showdown in Western Australia. Perth, with its top-notch vibe and fight-crazy fans, is ready to rumble.
Rewind to UFC 221 on Feb. 10, 2018. That’s when Yoel Romero KO’d Luke Rockhold, lighting up the main event. Fast forward to UFC 284, Feb. 11, 2023, Islam Makhachev kept his lightweight title against Alexander Volkanovski. Both showdowns? Absolute fire.
