At UFC 218, Max Holloway makes the first defense of his new featherweight title reign against veteran and former lightweight champion Frankie Edgar.
It’s the first time Holloway has been in the cage since his third round victory over Jose Aldo earlier this year. For Edgar, it’s an opportunity to become the fifth man in UFC history to hold two belts in two divisions.
And, as is the nature of the UFC’s end of year events, UFC 218 features a number of interesting bouts. In the co-main event, we go from featherweight to a heavyweight contender fight. Alistair Overeem faces Francis Ngannou in a number one contender’s fight.
