UFC 273

Alexander Volkanovski is building an all-time great resume at featherweight. "The Korean Zombie" is one of the most fun fighters in the division's history.

Petr Yan (ic) (-425)—bantamweight title bout That's likely to change against Gilbert Burns. Durinho is the perfect opponent for Chimaev at this stage of his career. Khamzat Chimaev has established himself as the most mysterious prospect in the UFC right now. Chan Sung Jung (+475, bet $100 to win $475)—featherweight title bout He landed seven takedowns in the first fight and should feel more comfortable with Sterling's style in this second fight. The Russian is a large favorite after losing the first fight by disqualification. After all, his nickname is Zombie, and he's waded through plenty of punishment to earn it. While he should be able to win wherever the fight takes place against Zombie, it will be difficult to get the finish. It's the likes of Conor McGregor, Max Holloway and Jose Aldo. Those are just the top three fights on a card that really has talent and intrigue scattered throughout. Aljamain Sterling will look to show that his disqualification win over Petr Yan was no fluke in a rematch for the bantamweight championship. The two will meet in the main event of UFC 273.

MMA Junkie analyst Dan Tom breaks down the UFC 273 main card, which features an anticipated Gilbert Burns vs. Khamzat Chimaev clash.

Torres, who appears to be in the best form of her career, should also carry a significant speed and experience edge into this fight. I wouldn’t mind being wrong, but I’ll take Chimaev to force a stoppage in the second via ground strikes. And though I’m typically one to fade the hype trains until they can provide a more reliable sample size, I can’t help but see the obvious abundance of things like proprioception, fighting instinct and technical skills when watching Chimaev work. For that reason, I’ll be siding with Yan to pull away down the stretch for a competitive decision win. Sterling has endured a lot since their first meeting, as I’ll be curious to see what adjustments he will bring to the table outside of improved pace management. Ronda Rousey-like odds aside, it’s nice to see Alexander Volkanovski getting some overdue respect as one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the sport.

In his last two fights before meeting Sterling, Yan finished Urijah Faber by knockout at UFC 245 to set up a vacant title matchup with Jose Aldo at UFC 251 in which Yan also finished by TKO to win the belt. Chimaev will be entering the fight undefeated at 10-0, 4-0 since he joined the UFC in 2020. The loss happened during Dern’s first UFC main event as Marina Rodriguez defeated her by unanimous decision at UFC Vegas 39. After missing his chance at a title shot in his fight with Ortega, Jung looks to make the most of the position he is in now following Holloway’s injury as he has been granted a title shot that was maybe still one or two wins away. Since then, he has picked up a TKO win over Danillo Belluardo in his debut, followed by back-to-back decision wins over Austin Hubbard and Clay Guida. The next win was another first round TKO finish as he defeated former UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar in their main event at UFC Fight Night 165. A rematch was scheduled for soon after their first fight however Sterling was forced out of that fight because of problems he was having with his neck following a procedure. In his first fight back, he knocked out Dennis Bermudez in round one of their main event at UFC Fight Night 104. Inching closer to a title shot coming off those two wins, Jung was matched up with Brian Ortega in his next fight at UFC Fight Night 180. As he looks to defend his title for the third time, it will be no easy task as he takes on a tough opponent. When the season was over, Volkanovski and Ortega met at UFC 266 where Volkanovski was able to successfully defend his title for the second time, defeating Ortega by unanimous decision. Overall, Volkanovski holds a record of 23-1 as he has not lost since 2013, winning his last twenty in a row since that one loss.

Alexander Volkankovski will try to extend his unbeaten run in the UFC and defend his featherweight title for the third time against “The Korean Zombie,” ...

I prefer to bet that the fight will end inside the distance (projected +111, listed +125 at WynnBet) or Under 4.5 rounds (listed +130 at MGM) at a similar price point. Volkanovski was initially supposed to face Max Holloway for a trilogy bout in March, but Holloway pulled out with an injury, and the UFC provided Jung with an additional month to prepare for his second title shot (he lost to Jose Aldo at UFC 163). Many consider Jung — the No. 4 featherweight contender — as undeserving of this opportunity. Can Jung become the fifth featherweight champion in UFC history?

Two title fights and the return of Khamzat Chimaev highlight a big card at UFC 273. Follow live.

Hansen got a takedown in the first round, landed some decent ground-and-pound and finished the first five minutes working for an arm-triangle choke. For the graybeard 44-year-old Russian, the neck crank he used to elicit a tapout from Vanderaa was his 47th submission victory in a 60-fight career. But the referee rightly stepped in to save Gall and end the fight. Fremd agreed to take the fight on short notice in his UFC debut. Pennington, of Colorado Springs, picked up her fourth win in a row by thoroughly outpointing the 27-year-old Ladd. All three judges awarded the fight to Pennington, 29-28. In the third round, Garry started getting into his rhythm when he dropped Weeks with a right hand and landed a big left head kick. It felt like he was landing every combination he threw, including the one at the end of the round that nearly stopped Jung. Early in the fourth, it was over. Chimaev (10-0) is now 5-0 in the UFC and the previous four wins all came via finish. She is a multiple-time jiu-jitsu world champion, one of the best grapplers in all of MMA, with submissions in seven of her 11 victories. To his credit, Burns was able to get another wind and land some shots later in the round. Chimaev dropped Burns with a perfect left jab near the end of the first round and nearly finished with huge ground and pound. The answer to the latter question was a resounding yes.
