Singapore Will Stage UFC 275 In July
The UFC continues to expand its events outside of Las Vegas
UFC 275 will take place in Singapore, which will be the first time in years. The headliners of this event will be Glover Teixeira (33-7, 16-5 in the UFC) and Jiri Prochazka (28-3-1, 2-0 in the UFC).
Teixeira will try to defend his title for the first time while Prochazka will have the opportunity to earn the gold of the UFC in his third UFC fight.
Shevchenko (22-3, 11-2 in the UFC) will defend her belt against prospect Taila Santos (18-1, 3-1 in the UFC) in the co-main event.
Also, former middleweight champion Robert Whittaker will hold a title eliminator fight against former title challenger Marvin Vettori.
It will be the first event in Singapore after a three-year break. The last time they held an event was UFC Fight Night 162. That event’s headlining bout was a welterweight bout between Demian Maia (28-11-0) and Ben Askren (19-2-0), where Maia finished Askren, a former Bellator and One FC champion in the third round.
