MMA Knockout has you covered with a full preview for this Saturday's UFC 302 card, headlined by Islam Makhachev vs. Dustin Poirier.
UFC 302 finally goes down in Newark, NJ this Saturday night, and the card features a tremendous lightweight title bout to close out what should be a fantastic night of action-packed fights.This will be the third time that Poirier has challenged for the UFC’s undisputed lightweight title after failed bids against Khabib Nurmagomedov and Charles Oliveira.
Lima had two different opponents pull out of UFC 302, and now Raposo will step in on short-notice after he was previously set for a second appearance onthis summer. Raposo has finished four-straight opponents and captured two titles on the New England regional scene since losing his firstfight in 2021, and this matchup with Lima should be an entertaining scrap after the Brazilian’s UFC debut famously ended in the second round after he was bitten by Igor Severino.
It’s been nearly two years since fans last saw Gall enter the Octagon, and that was for a matchup with Mike Malott at UFC 273 where the New Jersey-native was brutally knocked out for his second loss in a row. Gall will have a chance to return to the win column in front of the Newark crowd this Saturday against Bassil Hafez, but if the 32-year-old comes up short it could be the end of the road for him in the UFC.
