Video: UFC Fight Night 238 Weigh-ins
The Ultimate Fighting Championship brings Octagon action to the Apex Facility in Las Vegas for the fourth time this year with the upcoming UFC Fight Night 238, set to unfold on Saturday, March 2.
The main event is a classic showdown between a once-dominant force experiencing a slump, taking on a rising contender eager to seize the established ground of the veteran. Staying on course with that narrative, Jairzinho Rozenstruik will be keen to revive his destructive form that sent chills down the spine of fellow contenders. Meanwhile, Shamil Gaziev, fresh off a second-round TKO victory over Martin Buday, will be driven by the prospect of making his way up the heavyweight ladder with an emphatic victory.
Before the heavyweights swing it out, the co-main event features a light heavyweight clash between the surging Vitor Petrino taking on knockout artist Tyson Pedro. Petrino is undefeated in 10 professional fights, while Pedro boasts a 100% finish rate in 10 professional victories. The event also features undefeated prospects Umar Nurmagomedov and Muhammad Mokaev, going up against Bekzat Almakhan and Alex Perez respectively.
UFC Fight Night 238 will stream on ESPN+ in its entirety. The main card starts at 4 p.m. ET/1 p.m. PT, while the prelims begin at 1:30 p.m. ET/10:30 a.m. PT.
