Did you miss the debut of UFC 294 “Countdown” or just want to watch it again? Check out the main event preview now.
The segment takes a special look at the lightweight title rematch between champion Islam Makhachev (24-1 MMA, 13-1 UFC) and short-notice challenger Alexander Volkanovski (26-2 MMA, 13-1 UFC), the UFC’s featherweight champ.
Volkanovski will attempt to become a two-division champ for the second time. He lost to Makhachev in February. Given Volkanovski took the fight on just 10 days’ notice when Charles Oliveira pulled out, the “Countdown” segment focuses primarily on Makhachev’s preparation for UFC 294.
UFC 294 takes place Saturday at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. The main card airs on pay-per-view at a special time of 2 p.m. ET following prelims on ESPN+.
“Countdown” goes behind the scenes, and you can watch the full segment above.
