Islam Makhachev and Alexander Volkanovski will go head-to-head in a mouthwatering main event in Abu Dhabi tonight.

The pair went face-to-face at UFC 284 earlier this year in what was a close contest. Makhachev triumphed on the scorecards, with the challenger desperate to become a two-division champion.

Makhachev was due to fight Charles Oliveira, but the Brazilian was forced to pull out of the main event due to a cut he suffered in a sparring.

Tonight's co-main event will see another sensational fight take place. Kamaru Usman has stepped in on 10 days notice and will take on undefeated star Khamzat Chimaev. 'Borz' was due to face top middleweight contender Paulo Costa, but the Brazilian pulled out with a nasty elbow infection. 

Mail Sport breaks down everything you need to know ahead of Islam Makhachev and Alexander Volkanovski.
