The UFC returns to Vancouver on Saturday for the first time since 2019 with a GOAT in the main event as the illustrious Amanda Nunes headlines UFC 289 inside Rogers Arena.
Nunes, widely regarded as the greatest women's fighter of all time, defends her bantamweight title against Irene Aldana. After reclaiming the belt last summer and avenging a submission loss to Julianna Peña, Nunes looks to secure her first bantamweight title defense since a unanimous decision win over Germaine de Randamie in November of 2019.
Oliveira, the former UFC lightweight champion, aims to bounce back from his title loss to Islam Makhachev last October. With exceptional grappling and elite striking, Oliveira's presence in the Octagon guarantees an electrifying clash.
