UFC 276 time: When does Adesanya vs Cannonier start in UK and US tonight?

UFC 276 Time: When will Adesanya vs Cannonier launch in the UK and US this weekend?

The UFC stack card will complete International Fight Week on Saturday, with two matches of the championship taking place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

In the main event of UFC 276, Jared Kannoner (15-5) will be looking to finish the dominant Israel Adesanya race as the middleweight champion. Adesanya (22-1) recently secured his fourth successful belt defense, narrowly past Robert Whitaker in February to claim a second win over the man who ousted him in 2019.

Earlier in the evening, American Cannonier brutally halted Derek Bronson with a series of elbows to firmly establish himself as the number one competitor to the New Zealand-born Adesanya. Cannonier, who previously fought in both heavyweight and light heavyweight divisions, took his fierce knockout power to the middleweight, going 5-1 with four wins from stops.

In the UFC 276 co-main event, Alexander Volkanovsky and Max Holloway are fighting for the featherweight title for the third time. Australian Volkanovsky (24-1) has had an impressive streak of 21 wins and has twice beaten Holloway by decision – once in 2019 to win the gold, then controversially in 2020 to retain it. Hawaiian Holloway (23-6) has impressed since his losing streak, and he’s looking to reclaim the title here.
