Ah true. Didn’t think of that.

Fevola has mentioned about the fight on his Fox FM breakfast show in recent weeks, and has been training hard for his bout.

Tickets for the event goes on sale at Ticketek website at 11am AEST today.

UPDATE: the fight has been postponed until after the 2022 AFL season concludes.

Couldn’t even set his Zoom to HD (and thus widescreen) :roll_eyes:. He’s the presenter/interviewer.

This really pisses me off when even after all this time people (as in those who do this often/as the presenter or interviewer etc. not once off guests) still haven’t set their cameras to widescreen.

Jake got it right.

The first UFC numbered event of 2026 was revealed during CBS’ coverage of Thanksgiving Day NFL today. UFC 324 will take place in Las Vegas on January 24 (January 25 Australian time). The main fights will remain exclusive to Main Event and Kayo, while the preliminary fights will be on Paramount+.

Won’t be on P+ despite the new UFC Deal. Numbers would’ve been huge had it been on free to air TV with PPV’s scrapped like in the US
