UFC 251: Usman vs. Masvidal takes place on Saturday, July 11, on Fight Island on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi. UFC 251 is the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s first of four events during a 15-day span on Fight Island.

UFC 251 features a championship tripleheader. It is headlined by welterweight champion Kamaru Usman putting his belt on the line against late-replacement Jorge Masvidal after original opponent Gilbert Burns was removed for testing positive for COVID-19. The UFC 251 co-main event sees featherweight titleholder Alexander Volkanovski put his belt on the line for the first time against Max Holloway, the man he took it from. The third title fight pits Petr Yan against Jose Aldo for the UFC bantamweight belt vacated by former champion Henry Cejudo.
