UFC 266 on September 25. will bring with it a two-title fight card showcase — with both the featherweight and flyweight championships up for grabs from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Per a recent report from ESPN MMA report, Brett Okamoto as per UFC president, Dana White — The Ultimate Fighter 29 coaches, featherweight champion, Alexander Volkanovski and the #1 ranked contender, Brian Ortega will see their championship bout finally rescheduled following a failed UFC 260 pairing back in March — headlining the September showcase.

In the night’s co-headliner, reigning, dominant flyweight queen returns for her second attempted defence this year as she draws the fellow streaking #3 ranked challenger, former Invicta FC bantamweight champion, Lauren Murphy.
The news of the two-title fight card follows the recent confirmation from the promotion of a rematch 17-years in the making as the returning former welterweight title challenger, Nick Diaz meets with former undisputed gold holder, Robbie Lawler in a five round main card re-run.
