The final event of 2017 sees UFC 219 take place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas as Cris Cyborg defends her featherweight title against Holly Holm.

Two of the finest female fighters on the planet will square-off in the main event as Cyborg looks to extend her incredible unbeaten run which stretches all the way back to her debut – the onyl fight she has ever lost – in 2005.

Unsurprisingly, it is Cyborg who is the favourite, but Holm has shocked the world before, when she beat Ronda Rousey for the bantamweight title in 2015, so she will be confident of doing it again.

The highlight of the undercard sees terrifying Russian lightweight Khabib Nurmagamedov looking to continue his unbeaten record against solid contender Edson Barboza.
