UFC Freedom 250 takes place Sunday from the South Lawn of the White House. The unique location provides fighters on the card with a chance to stake their claim to a unique piece of sports history.
In the night’s main event, lightweight champion Ilia Topuria will face interim champion Justin Gaethje in a fight with potential to produce explosive results.
Another title is on the line in the UFC Freedom 250 co-main event, with former middleweight and light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira looking for heavyweight gold when he faces Ciryl Gane for the vacant interim heavyweight title.
Elsewhere on Saturday, fast rising heavyweight sensation Josh Hokit looks to take the next step toward a title shot when he takes on the legendary veteran Derrick Lewis. Hokit announced himself on the scene in just three UFC fights with his last being considered an all-timer against Curtis Blaydes at UFC 327 in Miami. Now, he must get past the all-time knockout leader if he wants to keep rolling into a potential fight with the winner of Saturday’s co-main event.
With so much happening on Saturday night, let’s look closer at the full fight card with the latest odds before we get to our staff predictions and picks for the festivities that you can consider before hitting the sportsbooks.
