The mixed martial arts world has once again come together to celebrate one of the biggest events of the year. UFC 273, comprising two title fights, is now live and available. Fight fans are eagerly looking forward to various key matchups that bring out the best of two title contenders in The Korean Zombie (vs Alexander Volkanovski) and Petr Yan (vs Aljamain Sterling).

A card of this magnitude saw the celebrities come out in droves to catch the action.

Pro wrestling royalties from AEW were spotted among the crowd at UFC 273. As the camera panned towards AEW’s president Tony Khan and Legendary Jim Ross, the crowd erupted to cheer them on.

They may have felt that they got their money’s worth with the spectacular show in the people’s main event, i.e. Gilbert Burns vs Khamzat Chimaev.

UFC 273 had an enthralling three-round fight between Gilbert Burns and Khamzat Chimaev

The fan-favorite welterweight match-up stole the show. UFC upstart and undefeated prospect, Khamzat Chimaev & top-ranked welterweight contender Gilbert Burns, put on a performance that will be remembered for a long time.

The fight produced a brutal three-round slugfest, which left both men bloodied and completely exhausted. The Swedish fighter walked into this match up with a special record, as he had absorbed only 1 significant strike in his last 4 bouts with the promotion. However, in this bout, ‘The Wolf’ got hit more times than he had in his entire career.
