UFC 276

The broadcast plans for UFC 276 this weekend during International Fight Week has been set – with longtime color commentator, Joe Rogan returning to the booth for the first time in two months at the T-Mobile Arena event.

As per an initial report from MMA Junkie, Rogan, who missed UFC 275 last month in Singapore – due to his decision not to travel beyond North America for pay-per-view events, will return to the booth this weekend in ‘Sin City’ for UFC 276 – partnering up alongside play-by-play lead, Jon Anik, and fellow color commentator, former two-weight UFC champion, Daniel Cormier.

Hosting a championship doubleheader at the T-Mobile Arena, undisputed middleweight champion, Israel Adesanya returns to the Octagon in search of his fifth successful defense of the division title – tackling challenger, Jared Cannonier. 

In the night’s co-main event, featherweight division standouts, Alexander Volkanovski and Max Holloway meet for the third time under the promotion’s banner, as the current and former champion, respectively, draw each other once again in a title trilogy tangle. 

Another high-profile main card matchup sees the surging #4 ranked middleweight challenger, Sean Strickland face off with Brazilian striking phenom, Alex Pereira – with the victor likely earning themselves a shot at divisional spoils.

As for the analyst desk, Michael Eaves will take host duties, where he will be joined by both former UFC lightweight, Din Thomas, and one-time light heavyweight championship chaser, Anthony Smith. 
Taking roving reporting duties, Megan Olivi features in ‘Sin City’ where she will be providing live updates throughout the card, as well as conducting post and pre-fight interviews with athletes over the course of UFC 276.

Veteran cage announcer, Bruce Buffer also returns to the Octagon for UFC 276 this weekend to boot.
