UFC 287: Pereira vs. Adesanya 2 UFC on ESPN: Holloway vs. Allen UFC Fight Night: Pavlovich vs. Blaydes

UFC on ESPN: Holloway vs. Allen (also known as UFC on ESPN 44) was a mixed martial arts event produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship that took place on April 15, 2023, at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Missouri, United States.[2]

Background

[edit]

The event marked the promotion's second visit to Kansas City and first since UFC on Fox: Johnson vs. Reis in April 2017.[2]

A featherweight bout between former UFC Featherweight Champion Max Holloway and Arnold Allen headlined the event.[3]

A bantamweight bout between Danaa Batgerel and Brady Hiestand was scheduled for the event.[4] However, the pair was moved to UFC Fight Night: Pavlovich vs. Blaydes a week later for undisclosed reasons.[5]

A heavyweight bout between Jake Collier and Martin Buday was expected to take place at this event.[6] However, the bout was moved to UFC Fight Night: Tsarukyan vs. Moicano for unknown reasons.[7]

At the weigh-ins, Joselyne Edwards weighed in at 136.5 pounds, half a pound over the women's bantamweight non-title fight limit. Her bout proceeded at catchweight and she was fined an undisclosed percentage of her purse which went to her opponent Lucie Pudilová.[8]
