Major UFC Middleweight Fight Set For April 2024

Fight fans are gearing up for a massive UFC bout in the middleweight division.

The UFC's middleweight division received quite a shock when Sean Strickland pulled off an upset unanimous decision victory over Israel Adesanya back in September 2023. Many felt the tide had shifted in the 185-pound weight class in a big way.

That brings us to the big UFC middleweight clash on the way for a UFC Fight Night card. Marvin Vettori will collide with Brendan Allen on April 6, the UFC announced. Allen, who is ranked number eight at 185 pounds, wanted a top five opponent and he is getting his wish. Vettori sits at the number five spot on the official UFC middleweight rankings.
