UFC 297 headlined by two title fights

Along with the two title bouts at the top of the card, UFC 297 will feature the return of two-time The Ultimate Fighter winner Brad Katona after being cut from the promotion in 2020. The Canadian will take on Garrett Armfield in his first non-TUF UFC bout after four years.

The card will also feature big names like Neil Magny, Arnold Allen, and Chris Curtis. And with two title fights headlining the event, it is promising to be an exciting affair.
