#UFC 270 fight card

The first PPV event of 2022 is upon us as UFC returns to California with a pair of titles up for grabs. UFC 270 goes down from the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, on Saturday night and features title bouts in the heaviest and lightest divisions within the promotion. Heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou looks to turn away interim titleholder Ciryl Gane in the main event atop the marquee.

MMA Fighting has UFC 270 results for the Ngannou vs. Gane fight card, live blogs for the entire main card, and live UFC 270 Twitter updates. In the main event, UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou will put his title on the line against former teammate and UFC interim heavyweight champion Ciryl Gane.

Interim UFC heavyweight champ Ciryl Gane squares off against one of the most dangerous strikers the sport has ever seen in Francis Ngannou at UFC 270 tonight, but that’s not the only title fight on tap. Flyweight champion Brandon Moreno will face Deiveson Figueiredo for the third time in what should make for a thrilling co-main bout. The main card fights began at 7 p.m. PT/10 p.m. ET, but the co-main event actual fight time should begin at around 8:35 p.m. PT/11:35 p.m. ET on ESPN Plus PPV.

UFC 270 live stream results and play-by-play updates will begin at 7 p.m. ET TONIGHT (Sat., Jan. 22, 2022) for the Francis Ngannou vs. Ciryl Gane-led pay-per-view (PPV) fight card, staged inside Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif., also featuring a flyweight title fight pitting Brandon Moreno against Deiveson Figueiredo for the third (and perhaps final) time. Despite several last-minute cancelations (details here), UFC 270 still boasts 11 action-packed fights, including the welterweight war between Michel Pereira and Andre Fialho, as well as a bantamweight battle that has Said Nurmagomedov taking on Cody Stamann.

For the first time since beating Stipic Miocic for the UFC heavyweight title, Francis Ngannou will defend his belt against interim champion Ciryl Gane. Ngannou beat Miocic for the title back at UFC 260 in March. It was a rematch from their fight in 2018 when Miocic beat him. The win was the fifth in a row for Ngannou via some form of knockout. Joining the UFC in 2019, Gane has won all seven of his fights with the promotion. Gane won the interim heavyweight title in August, beating Derrick Lewis via TKO.

Depending on who has their hands raised at the end of the night, we could see the beginning of one rivalry and the conclusion of another. That’s the baseline of what to expect heading into UFC 270 as Francis Ngannou and Ciryl Gane meet in a heavyweight championship unification bout and Brandon Moreno takes on Deiveson Figueiredo in a flyweight title fight for a third time.
