UFC, the world’s premier mixed martial arts organisation, and the Department of Culture and Tourism - Abu Dhabi announced a ground-breaking five-year partnership to bring UFC events to the capital.
The first Abu Dhabi Showdown Week, headlined by UFC 242: Khabib vs. Poirier, attracted 14,000 fans.
UFC 254: Khabib vs. Gaethje did not only witness Khabib’s unforgettable title defense win, but it also marked his monumental retirement. The emotional event marked a milestone for the two partners, UFC & Abu Dhabi.
UFC 267: Blachowicz vs. Teixeira marked a new milestone for Abu Dhabi, making it the first city outside of Las Vegas to host four UFC numbered events.
Simultaneously, Glover Teixeira produced a stunning performance to win the light heavyweight title fight in the main event, becoming the second oldest UFC champion in history.
Oliveira vs. Makhachev offered one of the most stacked fight cards of the year – with two title fights, two women’s bouts, and Arab fighters entertaining the sold-out crowd.
Makhachev vs Volkanovski 2 saw Islam Makhachev defend his lightweight title against Alexander Volkanovski and the highly anticipated return of Khamzat Chimaev facing off Kamaru Usman in a middleweight bout.
In a historic precedent, Mohammed Yahya became the first Emirati to compete in the UFC.
