UFC Vegas 90: Brendan Allen vs. Chris Curtis 2: Full fight card, date, start time, streaming, how to watch, venue and more
The UFC is set to make its comeback at the Apex facility in Las Vegas, Nevada on April 6 for UFC Fight Night: Allen vs. Curtis 2 (also known as UFC Fight Night 240 and UFC Vegas 90). The highly anticipated main event will see a rematch between middleweights Brendan Allen and Chris Curtis, as Allen seeks to redeem himself after his loss in 2021.
The original main event for the card was supposed to feature a middleweight bout between Marvin Vettori and Brendan Allen. Unfortunately, Vettori had to pull out of the fight due to undisclosed circumstances, resulting in a rematch between Chris Curtis and Allen being scheduled instead. In their previous meeting at UFC on ESPN: Font vs. Aldo, Curtis had defeated Allen via second-round TKO.
The undercard bouts are scheduled to commence at 3 PM ET (8 PM BST), followed by the main card at 6 PM ET (11 PM BST). The main event is expected to begin at approximately 9 PM ET (2 AM BST) for the ring walks.
Fans in the United States can watch the event live on ESPN+, while viewers in the United Kingdom can tune in to the broadcast on TNT Sports.
With a six-fight winning streak under his belt, Allen is determined to keep moving up the middleweight rankings. Hailing from Louisiana, he was discovered on Dana White’s Contender Series in 2019 and has secured five of his wins through near-naked choke submissions, proving himself to be a formidable threat on the ground.
Curtis has gained recognition for his thrilling fighting technique and is determined to continue his success following his split-decision victory over Marc-Andre Barriault in January. With a UFC record of 5-2 and one no-contest, he has solidified his position as a dominant presence in the middleweight division, earning him the nickname ‘Action Man’.
