Ilia Topuria vs Max Holloway – UFC 308 LIVE: Start time, score card, round-by-round updates as Topuria looks to defend his featherweight title for the first time

And welcome to Mail Sport’s coverage of tonight’s UFC 308 card from the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi.

We have an excellent main card in store, headlined by a pair of must-see matchups.

In the co-main event, Khamzat Chimaev faces the toughest test on his seemingly unstoppable rise to UFC gold as he takes on former middleweight champion and perennial contender Robert Whittaker.

Then, in our main event Ilia Topuria will look to make the first defence of his featherweight title since KO’ing long-reigning champion Alexander Volkanovski to secure the belt back in February.

Standing in his way will be the man widely regarded as one of the best 145lb fighters the sport has ever seen, Max Holloway.

So stick right here as myself, and Charlotte Daly provide all the news and updates for what promises to be one of the most exciting events of the year.
