It's officially UFC 311 fight week as the UFC brings two big title fights to the octagon. In the main event, Islam Makhachev is set to defend his title against Arman Tsarukyan in a rematch, while Merab Dvalishvili puts his newly won bantamweight championship on the line against the undefeated Umar Nurmagomedov. On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel previews Saturday's big pay-per-view event, the two championship bouts, the highly anticipated light heavyweight bout between Jamahal Hill and Jiri Prochazka, and the rest of the card as a whole. Additionally, they'll give their thoughts on the shocking airplane incident involving Khabib Nurmagomedov, Mackenzie Dern's big win over Amanda Ribas at UFC Vegas 101, Leon Edwards vs. Jack Della Maddalena to headline UFC London in March, and much more. Host Mike Heck moderates the matchup between MMA Fighting’s Jed Meshew and Morning Kombat’s Luke Thomas.
