Though the organization has left its mark in Singapore before with Fight Night cards, it’s time for a massive PPV event in the Singapore Indoor Stadium.
In the main event of UFC 275, the prestigious UFC light heavyweight championship will be on the line. The 42-year-old Brazilian champion, Glover Teixeira, would defend his gold for the first time against a vicious contender, Jiri Prochazka, who has run through the competition in the light heavyweight division.
Likewise, the expected co-main event of the night will see one of the most dominant champions in the UFC, the pound for pound queen Valentina Shevchenko, defend her flyweight championship against #4 Taila Santos.

Another big matchup to feature on the card is the pivotal matchup in the middleweight division, where Robert Whittaker would square off against Marvin Vettori. Both fighters have two losses on the record courtesy of ‘The Last Stylebender‘. Hence, both of them will look to get the win to stay relevant in the middleweight division.
The fifth event overall and first PPV in Singapore for UFC
With only four trips to Singapore that took eight years, a PPV return comes as a welcome surprise, as the organization has only been to the site for the Fight Night events before.
