UFC heads to Qatar this week!

The UFC rolls into uncharted territory this weekend as it makes its first-ever stop in Doha, Qatar, bringing a stacked card to the ABHA Arena just days after an electric event at Madison Square Garden.

The night is headlined by a crucial lightweight showdown between Arman Tsarukyan and veteran contender Dan Hooker, while the co-main event features former welterweight title challenger Belal Muhammad taking on surging Irish star Ian Machado Garry in a bout that could reshape the 170-pound landscape.

With additional matchups including Volkan Oezdemir vs Alonzo Menifield, Jack Hermansson vs Myktybek Orolbai, Serghei Spivac vs Shamil Gaziev, and Alex Perez vs Asu Almabayev, plus a prelim lineup packed with rising prospects and international talent, UFC Qatar promises a high-stakes, action-heavy night as the promotion extends its red-hot run of events.
