Join us Sat, Sep 10th, for a LIVE ‘radio style’ play-by-play ‘watch party’ of the UFC 279 PPV MAIN CARD, with LIVE updates, commentary, results & reactions; which began at 10/7PM ETPT, around the start of the Main Card opener between LHWs, Johnny Walker vs Ion Cutelaba. The event on ESPN+ was live from the T-Mobile Arena, in Las Vegas, NV. Check out the VIDEO broadcast of this show on our Combat Culture YT Channel at: https://youtu.be/AfyZjVTTNbI

Throughout the telecast, our host, Matt Ryan, will bring you all of the face-punching goodness the UFC can provide.

Headlining the UFC 279 PPV event is a blockbuster welterweight showdown at 170lbs as Nate ‘The Stockton Badboy’ Diaz battles our former top-ranked lightweight contender, the people’s champion, Tony ‘El Cucuy’ Ferguson in his debut return to the division. Meanwhile, in the co-main event, No. 3-ranked contender Khamzat Chimaev takes on opposing foe Kevin ‘The Trailblazer’ Holland, in an additional five-rounder. Prior to that, we get to see Li ‘The Leech’ Jingliang in a likely barnburner, now that he is facing Daniel ‘D-Rod’ Rodriguez.

Does all of that sound unfamiliar to you? It should, up until this Friday afternoon, this event featured Chimaev vs Diaz, Li vs. Ferguson, and Holland vs Rodriguez. But Khamzat did not hit weight, not to mention their extracurricular activities that resulted in the UFC 279 press conferences being cancelled. Now we have this all new PPV lineup involving all the same players for you. Nothing has changed on the Prelims.
