Report: UFC 300 Main Event Announcement Date Revealed

The world is waiting and wondering what UFC 300’s main event could be.

All questions will apparently be answered in Anaheim, California at UFC 298 this weekend (Sat., Feb. 17, 2024). Kevin Iole has shared on Twitter that in a recent conversation with UFC CEO, Dana White, he stated that the historic card’s headliner bout will be announced at the UFC 298 post-fight press conference.

After no fun surprise during the Super Bowl LVIII broadcast in Las Vegas, rumors have continued to swirl. Mostly surrounding the Welterweight and Middleweight divisions with the likes of top contenders, Khamzat Chimaev and Israel Adesanya, there’s still been no clear indication of where things are headed.

White recently stated that UFC 300 only has two more fights to be added, which included the main event and something more centered down the list. At present, there are two title fights scheduled: Zhang Weili’s UFC Strawweight title defense vs. Yan Xiaonan and Justin Gaethje’s Baddest Motherf—ker (BMF) title defense vs. Max Holloway at Lightweight.
