Your support makes all the difference.Calvin Kattar and Arnold Allen will look to earn a featherweight title shot at the other’s expense on Saturday, as the UFC contenders clash in a Fight Night main event.
American Kattar last fought in June, suffering a controversial points defeat by compatriot Josh Emmett. Meanwhile, Britain’s Allen is chasing a twelfth straight win, having last stepped into the Octagon in March, when he knocked out Dan Hooker in the first round in London.
The winner of this bout could be next in line to challenge champion Alexander Volkanovski, meaning the stakes are high at the UFC Apex institute.
While Volkanovski has his eyes on the lightweight belt won by Islam Makhachev last week, Kattar and Allen will hope to welcome him back to 145lbs at the earlliest opportunity.
