As Lawler prepares for his final Octagon appearance, fans won’t want to miss this legendary fighter’s last hurrah. While Lawler may not be in his prime, he still knows how to deliver an entertaining fight.

2. Robert Whittaker vs. Dricus Du Plessis:
Whittaker, the second-ranked middleweight, aims to solidify his position. However, Du Plessis, an unpredictable force, is eager to disrupt the division. With a potential shot at middleweight champion Israel Adesanya on the line, this tactical encounter could produce surprises.
1. Alexander Volkanovski vs. Yair Rodriguez:
