Abu dhabi: UFC, the world's premier mixed martial arts organisation, in partnership with the Department of Culture and Tourism - Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi), today announced the return of the Octagon to Abu Dhabi with UFC 333 at Etihad Arena on Saturday, October 24.
According to Emirates News Agency, Abu Dhabi Showdown Week returns to Yas Island this October with another week of world-class MMA and fan experiences. With more than 20 events staged in Abu Dhabi since 2010, UFC has become a fixture on the region's sporting calendar. Recent events have continued to reinforce Abu Dhabi's status as one of the sport's premier destinations, with July's UFC Fight Night: Whittaker vs. De Ridder last year delivering a night of action, followed by Abu Dhabi Showdown Week, which culminated in UFC 321, headlined by Tom Aspinall and Ciryl Gane.
This month's UFC Fight Night: Ankalaev vs Guskov continues that momentum.
