THERE’S NO CONOR McGregor, Jon Jones nor Ronda Rousey on tonight’s bill, but despite the absence of the three biggest names in mixed martial arts, UFC 200 is still the most stacked card the Ultimate Fighting Championship has ever assembled.
When fights such as Daniel Cormier-Anderson Silva and Jose Aldo-Frankie Edgar are languishing outside of the main and co-main-event slots, and TJ Dillashaw-Raphael Assuncao and Joe Lauzon-Diego Sanchez have to settle for the prelims, you know it has to be something pretty special.
Miesha Tate’s bantamweight championship defence against Amanda Nunes — the only undisputed title bout on the card — will top UFC 200, with former heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar returning to face Mark Hunt in the co-headliner. The other contest on the main card sees another former heavyweight title-holder, Cain Velasquez, clash with Travis Browne.

The three early prelims will begin at 11.30pm Irish time and they’re only available to watch live on UFC Fight Pass — the UFC’s online broadcast service — a subscription to which will set you back $7.99 a month if you haven’t already taken advantage of the one-week free trial.
The preliminary card, featuring another four bouts, will then move to BT Sport 2 at 1am. BT Sport 2 is also where you can watch the main card, which kicks off at 3am.
