UFC 276: What is the start time for the UFC card tonight (July 2, 2022)?

The UFC is returning with its next big pay-per-view event, UFC 276: Adesanya vs. Cannonier. The action will go down on July 2 at the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada, and fans are in for a treat.

The pay-per-view packs a deep lineup of fights topped by a middleweight title clash between defending champion Israel Adesanya and No.2-ranked contender Jared Cannonier.

'The Last Stylebender' has run through most of the top contenders in the 185-pound division and looks set to make a fifth successful title defense against 'The Killa Gorilla'. Meanwhile, the American earned his crack at gold with a brutal knockout of Derek Brunson in his last fight. This is the first time Cannonier is competing for the title, and he will look to make the most of the opportunity.

The highly-anticipated trilogy bout will take co-main event honors as Alexander Volkanovski puts his 145-pound title on the line against former champion Max Holloway.

The Hawaiian will have the opportunity to reclaim the 145-pound belt when he takes on 'The Great' this Saturday. However, the Australian will be looking to cement his legacy in the featherweight division by going 3-0 against 'Blessed'.

Also on the card is No.4-ranked middleweight Sean Strickland's potential title eliminator bout against former Glory Kickboxing champion Alex Pereira.

In yet another intriguing matchup, No.13-ranked Sean O'Malley will aim to break into the bantamweight top ten with a win over Pedro Munhoz, who is currently positioned at No.9 despite losing four out of his last five fights.
