Rounding out this championship tripleheader will be the featherweight title fight between Max Holloway and Alexander Volkanovski and the women’s bantamweight title showdown between Amanda Nunes and Germaine De Randamie.
Making the first defense of the title he took in dominant fashion from Tyron Woodley in March, Usman has won 14 straight fights leading up to UFC 245, and he expects to end his feud with Covington once and for all this December. Winner of seven in a row, a stretch that includes wins over Robbie Lawler and Rafael Dos Anjos, Covington plans on backing up all his words when the title is on the line in Las Vegas.
