Tyson Fury is back once again. After a year away from the sport following back-to-back losses to Oleksandr Usyk, the Gypsy King returns to the ring to fight Arslanbek Makhmudov on 11 April at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, live on Netflix.
With plenty of interest in the Tyson Fury vs Makhmudov odds already building, one question keeps coming up more than any other. Who exactly is Arslanbek Makhmudov, and does he have what it takes to face the Gypsy King?

The upcoming UFC event on the White House South Lawn has generated enormous buzz. Announced by President Trump in 2025 as part of America’s 250th anniversary celebration, the fight card is set for June 14, 2026, Trump’s 80th birthday. UFC CEO Dana White has vowed to make it “one-of-one” and the “best card we’ve ever done”. The contest will be broadcasted on CBS and Paramount+, with a live audience of roughly 5,000 on the lawn and up to 85,000 watching on big screens at the nearby Ellipse Park. Every major UFC star has been eager to volunteer for the event, and with no official fight lineup announced yet, fan speculation is at a fever pitch. In the sections below we break down the biggest matchups fans are clamoring to see, from title fights to dream super-fights.

Figure 1 The top fighters in UFC will be preparing for title fights in the months ahead – Source: Unsplash
Two months into 2026, and we have already witnessed some incredible bouts in UFC. Justin Gaethje and Paddy Pimblett headlined the first big show of the year, with the American fighter claiming the interim lightweight title thanks to a unanimous decision after five rounds of the headline bout of UFC 324.
That event was swiftly followed by UFC’s eighth visit to Australia, where local favorite Alexander Volkanovski retained his featherweight belt thanks to another unanimous decision against Diego Lopes. More recently, there have been some high-octane Fight Nights in Las Vegas and Houston to round off February’s UFC schedule.
Now, our attention turns to yet another star-studded event at the home of UFC, the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. All the best UFC betting online sites will already be doing brisk business as fans back their favorites ahead of the big show. The next few months promise to be some of the most explosive yet in mixed martial arts. Here’s what’s coming up in the world of UFC.

Charles Oliveira knows how to take a punch. He has taken a few. After all, the man has been in 47 professional bouts. Winning some, losing some. Never giving up in the process. That’s Do Bronx for you. If some other fighters were in his boots, he would have retired a while ago, but not Charles Oliveira. Instead, he will put his body on the line once again when he meets Max Holloway at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on March 7th. For a fighter of Oliveira’s past there couldn’t be a better opponent than Blessed, for a symbolic title of the Baddest Mother F**ker in the UFC.
While symbolic in terms of UFC rankings, for two fighters of Holloway’s and Oliveira’s pedigree it means more than your average title. Max more than deserved to carry the BMF belt, after securing it in a memorable fashion at UFC 300. Oliveira, on the other hand, is trying to get another title shot through this bout, and despite his 36-11 record is entering the T-Mobile Arena as an underdog. You will need all the betting tips for UFC 326 you can get as this match is going to be a tricky one.
While every bookmaker out there is pitting the odds against the Do Bronx, Charles is not one to be underestimated. In the past, he carved a career out of being a fighter and bookie underestimating him. He is prepared to go against the odds once again, and we’re more than eager to witness how he will do it. Oliveira can win, and we have more than a few ideas on how he could do it under the right circumstances.
The UFC 326 location and UFC 326 date have been locked in, and people can’t wait to see what the outcome of the match between two of the most decorated fighters in the MMA will be. The first fight between the two, Max Holloway and Charles Oliveira happened in 2015 when the contestants were still finding their feet in the sport. But the situation is different now. They are returning now as established fighters.

UFC 326 is expected to be an intriguing fight night in 2026, especially with Max Holloway and Charles Oliveira making headlines in a long-awaited rematch for the prestigious BMF (Baddest Mother F*er) title. This 2026 bout is a clash between two veteran MMA stars with different paths to the top. Let’s break down tactics, physicality, psychology, and fight scenarios.
March does not ease you into the year. It throws you straight into rematches with history attached, former champions fighting to stay relevant and contenders trying to force the rankings to move. From Las Vegas to London and Seattle, this month carries consequences.
The headline belongs to a fight ten years in the making. But the real story runs deeper than one rematch. It runs through divisional crossroads, market signals and the subtle tension between legacy and momentum.
