About UFC 284: Makhachev vs Volkanovski
The main event of UFC 284 will feature Australian superstar Alexander Volkanovski taking on lightweight champion Islam Makhachev. Volkanovski will attempt to make history by becoming just the fifth UFC fighter to achieve champ-champ status. The return of the promotion to Australia could not be more anticipated.
For the interim UFC featherweight championship, Yair Rodriguez will compete against Josh Emmett in the co-main event. Whatever happens in the main event, Volkanovski might face one of these competitors later. However, UFC 284 in Perth is the most prominent feature this week. At the same time, the capacity of RAC Arena will not exceed 15,000–16,000. There’s a potential that Perth residents in attendance may witness a significant moment in UFC history.
