There are two titles up for grabs at UFC 273 on April 9th in Jacksonville, Florida. The main event sees reigning featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski go up against Chan Sung Jung, aka ‘The Korean Zombie.’ In the co-main, Aljamain Sterling makes his first title defense in a rematch vs. Petr Yan, who was disqualified and thus lost his belt after a very illegal knee to Sterling’s head in a fight Yan was otherwise on his way to winning.

Also on this card is a women’s bantamweight scrap between Irene Aldana and Aspen Ladd, women’s strawweights Mackenzie Dern and Tecia Torres, and former middleweight interim title challenger Kelvin Gastelum versus rising contender Nassourdine Imavov.
