The UFC kicks off its 2025 pay-per-view schedule in Inglewood, California with two titles on the line at the state-of-the-art Intuit Dome.
The undisputed lightweight title will be up for grabs in the main event as the UFC’s No. 1-ranked pound-for-pound fighter Islam Makhachev puts his 155-pound title on the line against Arman Tsarukyan, while in the co-main event, newly-crowned bantamweight champion Merab Dvalishvili will look to register his first title defense by turning back the challenge of undefeated challenger Umar Nurmagomedov.
