Fans in Singapore will get to see two of MMA’s best grapplers tangle in the middle of the octagon Oct. 26.
UFC on ESPN+ 20 takes place in Kallang, Singapore, and will be headlined by former welterweight title challenger and ADCC Submission Wrestling World Champion Demian Maia, who takes on former Bellator and ONE welterweight champ Ben Askren.
The formerly undefeated Askren will look to get back into the win column after his knockout loss to Jorge Masvidal when he meets the surging 41-year-old Maia, who was able to bounce back from three straight losses by winning his last two in a row.
Check out the official poster (via Twitter):
