The spectacular Sphere plays host to a visual combat sports event unlike anything we’ve seen before for UFC 306: Riyadh Season Noche UFC.
The star of the show will be the Sphere itself, as the newest iconic venue in Las Vegas looks set to deliver a stunning audio-visual experience as the stars of the UFC compete inside the Octagon in front of 18,000 fans on Saturday night.
Headlining the event is a battle for the undisputed UFC bantamweight title, as reigning champion Sean O’Malley puts his belt on the line for the second time when he faces hard-charging Georgian contender Merab Dvalishvili.
There’s a title on the line, and a whole lot more, in the co-main event, as UFC women’s flyweight champion Alexa Grasso looks to turn back the challenge of the woman she defeated to win the belt, former champ Valentina Shevchenko, in a trilogy bout.
There’s also a high-octane matchup at featherweight, as former title challenger Brian Ortega faces Brazil-born, Mexico-based finisher Diego Lopes. And there’s also a host of Mexican stars on the card as the UFC looks to put on an unforgettable show on Mexican Independence Day weekend.
