In case you didn’t know…
UFC 241 is looking like a stacked card, with the headliner featuring Daniel Cormier and Stipe Miocic. The card also features the returning Nate Diaz who will face Anthony Pettis and the long-delayed fight of Yoel Romero and Paulo Costa. The current lineup for the night is below:
UFC Heavyweight Championship Fight: Daniel Cormier vs. Stipe MiocicNate Diaz vs. Anthony PettisPaulo Costa vs. Yoel RomeroRaphael Assuncao vs. Cory SandhagenDerek Brunson vs. Ian HeinischManny Bermudez vs. Casey KenneyChristos Giagos vs. Drakkar KloseGabriel Benitez vs. Sodiq YusuffHannah Cifers vs. Jodie EsquibelBrandon Davis vs. Kyung Ho KangShana Dobson vs. Sabina MazoPoliana Botelho vs. Maryna MorozDevonte Smith vs. opponent TBA
The heart of the matter
John Makdessi is withdrawing from the fight due to an undisclosed injury. It is not known when he will return to the Octagon.
Devonte Smith has made his way to the UFC after a KO victory last August at Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series. He has also had two first-round victories in the UFC since then, defeating Dong Hyun Ma and Julian Erosa.
What’s next?
UFC 241 is set to take place at the Honda Center on the 17th of August, so the UFC does not have much time before they would need to select an opponent for Devonte Smith.
