Why Should I Watch UFC 285 PPV?

The debut of the Argentinian knockout artist Esteban Ribovics looks very promising. Heavy-handed Farid Basharat is looking for another vicious victory, while Ian Garry and Cameron Saaiman are looking to extend their winning streaks.

Cody Garbrandt will try to send Trevin Jones to sleep, while wrestling expert Derek Brunson squares off against powerful former KSW champ Dricus du Plessis. The prelims are stacked, but the main card looks even better.

An amazing wrestler, Bo Nickal, makes his UFC debut against dangerous long-range fighter Jamie Pickett, while Granby roll expert Mateusz Gamrot meets a master of straight punches, Jalin Turner. Geoff Neal will try to snap Shavkat Rakhmonov’s undefeated winning streak at UFC 285.

The main and co-main events are even more amazing on paper. Two title fights, the return of Jon Jones after a long layoff, and a very hard mission for Alexa Grasso. Are these belts are going to change the owners? Can Jon Jones become the heavyweight king too? Will Valentina Shevchenko defend her strap after a hard fight against Taila Santos?
