The champions of two UFC divisions will meet in the main event of UFC 284, with featherweight champ Alexander Volkanovski moving up in weight class to challenge lightweight title holder Islam Makhachev. UFC 284 will broadcast live from Volkanovski's home country of Australia on February 11; the main card is scheduled to start at 10 p.m. ET on ESPN+.
Volkanovski has been undefeated since making his UFC debut in 2016, and has successfully defended the featherweight belt four times since 2019. Makhachev has won 11 straight fights dating back to 2016; he earned the lightweight championship with a submission victory over Charles Oliveira in October 2022.
With Volkanovski moving up to lightweight, a fight to decide the interim featherweight champion is on the UFC 284 undercard. Yair Rodriguez and Josh Emmett will face off in that match.
