The UFC octagon touches down in Abu Dhabi with a loaded fight night card headlined by former middleweight champion and fan favorite Robert Whittaker taking on dark horse contender Reinier de Ridder.

Casey Leydon preview the fight card, including what's at stake for Whittaker and de Ridder, who has the best chance to steal the show, how this card stacks up to some of the UFC's recent pay-per-view offerings, low-key bangers, fan questions, and more!
