UFC 242 has one of the best match ups you will ever see in MMA history, between Khabib Nurmagomedov defending his title against Dustin Poirier. However, looking at the rest of the card, it leaves a lot to be desired for a UFC PPV. Joining Jeff Wall on this episode of Fistic Arts is Nick Ward of Fansided.
It's the UFC's third trip to Abu Dhabi, and for the most part, it looks like the UFC is trying to tap into the Eastern Europe, and Russian market on this one.
