The UFC returns to Australia for the first time in more than three years Saturday with UFC 284 , which takes place at RAC Arena in Perth with a main card that airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and ESPN+. Two title fights will headline the card “Down Under.” In the main event, just the seventh champion-vs-champion fight in UFC history will unfold with Islam Makhachev (23-1 MMA, 12-1 UFC) set to put his lightweight strap on the line against featherweight kingpin Alexander Volkanovski (25-1 MMA, 12-0 UFC), who moves up in pursuit of a second belt. With Volkanovski doing business at 155 pounds, the promotion implemented an interim title at 145 pounds. The co-headliner of the card will see Yair Rodriguez (14-3 MMA, 9-2 UFC) clash with Josh Emmett (18-2 MMA, 9-2 UFC) to determine who will get the right to face Volkanovski when he returns to the division.
