The UFC has landed on TNT Sports. The great and the good of the UFC - the likes of Jon Jones, Weili Zhang, Leon Edwards, Alexa Grasso, Israel Adesanya, Valentina Shevchenko and Islam Makhachev - are available to watch on TNT Sports.

The first fight night of the TNT Sports era was in London on July 22 at the O2 Arena. It was headlined by Tom Aspinall, who fought Marcin Tybura. Aspinall produced a hugely impressive return to the ring since suffering a serious knee injury against Curtis Blaydes in July of last year, and secured a first-round stoppage of Tybura at the O2 Arena.

Molly McCann also featured on the card and was looking to bounce back from her submission loss to Erin Blanchfield in New York at UFC 281. However, Julija Stoliarenko produced a signature armbar to claim a brilliant win over 'Meatball' Molly.

Following UFC London was UFC 291 on July 30, and headlining that night were Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje, which represented a second meeting between the pair after the former’s victory in an epic contest in 2018.

Gaethje potentially earned himself a shot at the UFC lightweight title after an impressive knockout win over Poirier in Salt Lake City.

The fine victory saw Gaethje claim the symbolic BMF title and put him in prime position for a shot at the lightweight crown.

The 34-year-old will likely face the winner of October’s UFC 294 main event where champion Islam Makhachev defeated Alexander Volkanovski.

UFC 292 brought yet more drama as Sean O'Malley took Aljamain Sterling's bantamweight title with a vicious stop just 51 seconds into the second round at the TD Garden in Boston.

At UFC 293, Sean Strickland became the middleweight champion against the betting odds, with Strickland in typically confident form after the fight.

UFC 295 saw Tom Aspinall become interim heavyweight champion with a great performance against Sergei Pavlovich, while Jiri Prochazka lost to Alex Pereira.

Leon Edwards defended his welterweight title with a comfortable victory over Colby Covington at UFC 296, while on the co-main event Alexandre Pantoja defended his flyweight belt with a unanimous decision victory over Brandon Royval.

The top action will continue to come on TNT Sports.
