UFC 285 will return to action this weekend in Las Vegas, Nevada from the T-Mobile Arena. The five-bout main card starts at 10 p.m. ET on Saturday, March 4, and will be highlighted by a showdown between Jon Jones and Ciryl Gane for the vacant UFC Heavyweight championship.
The full event will get started with the early prelims at 5:30 p.m. ET on UFC Fight Pass. That will be followed by the late prelims at 8 p.m. on ESPN and ESPN+. The main card for UFC 285 will be live-streamed on ESPN+ PPV, which will cost $79.99 for the full card.
The main event marks a return to the UFC for Jones (26-1-1) after a three-year layoff. The former two-time UFC light heavyweight champion and 2020 UFC Hall of Fame inductee is making his long-awaited debut at heavyweight. Gane (11-1), a former UFC interim heavyweight champion and seasoned kickboxer will prove to be a tough challenge after he showed great power in knocking out top-five contender Tai Tuivasa back in September. Jones is a -165 favorite at DraftKings Sportsbook while Gane is in the underdog role at +140.
In the co-feature, it will be Valentina “Bullet” Shevchenko defending her UFC women's flyweight title against Alexa Grasso. Shevchenko, who is a massive -800 favorite, will be attempting to successfully defend her title for the eighth consecutive time.
