Dustin Poirier and Khabib Nurmagomedov are set to headline a card heavy on international talent as the UFC heads to Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates with UFC 242.
The main event features the long-awaited return of lightweight champion Nurmagomedov in his first action since his memorable blockbuster against Conor McGregor. In his time away from the cage, Dustin Poirier has emerged as the interim lightweight titleholder.
He'll get an opportunity to unify his belt with the actual crown, but he comes in as a fairly large underdog.
Nurmagomedov remains undefeated, and the odds reflect his unbeaten status.
