Massive Middleweight Stretch Starts Saturday Night

The middleweight division has quickly become one full of exciting storylines and matchups.

That is on display over the next few weeks as a handful of pivotal fights are set to go down at 185 pounds, including a title fight featuring Dricus Du Plessis and Khamzat Chimaev that has everyone counting down the days until UFC 319.

Kicking things off this Saturday inside UFC APEX in Las Vegas will be a bout between No. 9 ranked Roman Dolidze and the surging No. 10 contender Anthony Hernandez to close out the card. Dolidze enters his third main event on a three-fight win streak after knocking off Anthony Smith, Kevin Holland and avenging a loss against Marvin Vettori.
