A rumble is coming to the Garden.
On Saturday, Nov. 16, UFC 309 will go down at New York City’s Madison Square Garden.
This one-off event will be the first time that the mixed martial arts league has come to midtown Manhattan since UFC 295 in November 2023.
As of now, the main event fighters have yet to be announced. The only confirmed matches are a Chris Weidman and Eryk Anders middleweight bout and a Women’s Flyweight bout between Karine Silva and Viviane Araújo.
There is a bit of a New York connection here, too; the 40-year-old Weidman is a Long Island native.
For those that want to attend, tickets can be picked up as soon as today.
At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on tickets was $640 before fees on Vivid Seats.
Floor seats start at $2,053 before fees on Vivid Seats.
