Report
Two-division champion Islam Makhachev returns to defend the welterweight crown he claimed from Jack Della Maddalena, and unbeaten Irish striker Ian Machado Garry presents a fascinating stylistic puzzle.
The story is simple to state and hard to solve: can Makhachev's relentless takedowns and top control neutralize Garry's reach, footwork and volume striking over five rounds? Garry will look to keep the fight standing and make the champion work. The co-main is a women's strawweight title fight, giving the card two championship bouts.
