UFC 259 is shaping up to be a hell of a card. Three title fights, including one fighter going for a second title. A battle of top five 205ers as well. Heck, the event is so deep that former bantamweight king Dominick Cruz is fighting on the preliminary card.

The main event will see Jan Blachowicz looking to defend his light heavyweight title for the first time when he meets middleweight champ Israel Adesanya. Double champ Amanda Nunes will defend her 145-pound title against Megan Anderson in the co-main. And in perhaps the most potentially exciting of the title fights, Petr Yan will meet Aljamain Sterling with the 135-pound strap on the line.

Here’s a look at the full current card, which will go down on March 6th in UFC Apex.
