UFC officials revealed in a recent press release that UFC 288 will take place at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey.
The event is targeted to feature a bantamweight title fight between reigning champion Aljamain Sterling and the returning former double-champion Henry “Triple C” Cejudo.
The card also features a pivotal lightweight fight between former champion Charles “do Bronx” Oliveira and No. 4 ranked Beneil Dariush. The winner could very well face lightweight champion Islam Makhachev next.
