This coming Sunday night, the premier promotion hosts one of the most unique combat sports events of all time.
After several months of build-up and anticipation, UFC Freedom 250 finally goes down this coming Sunday from the South Lawn of the White House.
The card boasts two huge title fights atop the bill, with Ilia Topuria and Justin Gaethje clashing for the undisputed lightweight title in the main event.
And in the co-main event, Alex Pereira looks to make UFC history when he takes on Ciryl Gane for the interim heavyweight title.
Here is everything you need to know about the one-of-a-kind event before Sunday night.
UFC Freedom 250 start times
The event takes place on Sunday 14 June, and throughout the building of the event, the start times have changed.
Despite the current set times, Dana White revealed weeks ago that the time of the fights could still be subject to change, depending on the weather forecast.
Also, with the event being a unique one-of-a-kind event, it doesn’t include its typical 12-15 fights, and instead there will only be 7 fights on the entire card.

Unfortunately for fans in the UK, the event doesn’t begin until 1am on Monday morning.
