For the fourth time in UFC history, the promotion makes its annual November stop at Madison Square Garden with UFC 244, one of the most anticipated events of the year that features an unprecedented title fight.
In the main event, Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz will throw down in a welterweight clash for the “BMF” title belt that is expected to be wrapped around the winner’s waist by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. And in the co-main event, former welterweight title challenger Darren Till makes his middleweight debut in a tough matchup with recent interim title challenger Kelvin Gastelum.
