The UFC Has An INCREDIBLE Card In Store For Their Return To Madison Square Garden

WHAT A CARD!!! WHAT A GOD DAMN CARD!!!

Obviously, the main attraction here is Kamaru Usman vs Colby Covington II - as it should be, there's some INCREDIBLY real hatred between those guys and they truly seem to be the best of the best in that division right now - but this slate runs deep already!

Give the first Usman/Colby fight a rewatch if it's been a while….

As much as we all hate Colby, he's an incredible fighter and so engaging to watch because of his ridiculous output; and going into the fifth and final round of that fight, one judge had it 3-1 Usman, one had it 3-1 Covington, and one had it all tied up.

If Kamaru hadn't broken his jaw and sent him sprinting to the back, who knows which fighter the judges woulda given the nod to….

Will we see another all out brawl in the rematch, or will one of these wrestlers try to utilize their grappling?! I'm fascinated to find out.

In the co-main event, we've got Rose Namajunas vs Weili Zhang II, which is another one I can't wait for! I know some wanted Carla Esparza to get a championship opportunity here but I'm fine with Zhang getting the immediate rematch. This record justifies that for me….

Rose has had some spectacular memories at the Garden as well….

Michael Chandler vs Justin Gaethje is either gonna be fight of the year or somebody is getting knocked out brutally in the first round - so that sounds fucking awesome - and there's a ton of local flair as well! Bada bing bada boom!

That MSG crowd is gonna be going bananas for the likes of Frankie Edgar and Al Iaquinta. 

Hopefully our guy Billy Quarantillo gets on that card next, he's been pushing for it hard. Maybe against Andre Fili?

Simply incredible start to that card tho - can't wait! I'll be there and will have plenty of content in the lead up, hopefully getting some fighters into HQ during the build.

P.S. Sneaky good card on tonight as well….

Still time to tune in for Edson Barboza vs Giga Chikadze in the main event.
