On Saturday December 10, it’s time for the last UFC pay-per-view event of 2022.

UFC 282 takes place at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and is headlined by a fight between former champion Jan Blachowicz and Magomed Ankalaev who will clash for the vacant light heavyweight belt.

A rematch between Jiří Procházka and Glover Teixeira was originally expected to headline the event, but Procházka had to pull out of the fight due to an injury and vacated his light heavyweight title.

Ankalaev rides a nine-fight winning streak that includes former title challengers Anthony Smith, Thiago Santos and Volkan Oezdemir.

Paddy ”The Baddy” Pimblett returns

In the highly anticipated co-main event, fan favorite Paddy Pimblett returns to the octagon to take on the tough Jared Gordon. ”The Baddy” is undefeated in the UFC with three wins, while Gordon is 1-4 in his last fights.

We will also see another Liverpool fighter in Darren Till who returns to the cage to take on Dricus Du Plessis. Till had a rough couple of years behind him with one win in his last fight outings. In Las Vegas he hopes to get back in the win column again.

In the prelimsm the hyped Raul Rosas Jr. will make his promotional debut.
