The UFC’s first pay-per-view show in the vast Southern California market in 25 months features former middleweight champion Robert Whittaker’s long-delayed meeting with Paulo Costa in the penultimate bout. Former two-division champion Henry Cejudo also takes on bantamweight Merab Dvalishvili, while strawweights Mackenzie Dern and Amanda Lemos headline the preliminary card.
Volkanovski (26-3) could become the first fighter in UFC history to make two successful title defenses after losses if he beats Topuria (14-0), the German-born Georgian who trains in Spain. Volkanovski followed up his first loss to Makhachev with a dominant victory over Yair Rodriguez last July.As evidenced by his busy schedule, few champions in recent mixed martial arts history have been more active or more fearless than Volkanovski. This bout will be his sixth in less than two years, and he claimed this week that he would love to jump on the landmark UFC 300 card on April 13 after he makes quick work of Topuria.Volkanovski’s multilingual, multitalented challenger does not lack for confidence of his own, however.
