Come Saturday, November 15, we’re back in the New York groove (R.I.P. Ace) when UFC 322: Della Maddalena vs Makhachev touches down at Madison Square Garden.
Without fail, UFC events in NYC are simply extra. Call it magic, call it mystique or aura, call it what you will; if you’ve been to one of the 11 events there since 2016, you know what we’re talking about. This year’s iteration will be no exception as Islam Makhachev and Zhang Weili—two former champions and two of the best to ever do it—vacate their championship belts in an attempt to claim a new one in a new division.
