Fight fans express disappointment over main card lineup for UFC 297: “Looks like a Fight Night”
Fans have shared their views on the UFC 297 card, and it isn’t pretty.
UFC 297 will be held inside the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario on January 20. In the main event of the first UFC pay-per-view of 2024 it’ll be Sean Strickland putting his UFC Middleweight Championship at stake against Dricus Du Plessis. Strickland and Du Plessis have some bad blood brewing, and it led to the two brawling in the crowd during UFC 296.
Fans Not Impressed By UFC 297 Card
We recently shared a post on X asking you for your thoughts on the UFC 297 main card. It’s clear that many of you do not believe UFC 297 is worthy of a buy if you’re looking for something more than the headliner.
A 5 maybe, but the main event and Arnold Allen could make it higher depending how the fights play out. Mallott is fun too but Magny could make that a snoozer
