UFC 217 schedule: How the New York fight card will pan out ahead of Bisping vs GSP
UFC 217 has a huge headline fight as Michael Bisping and Georges St-Pierre clash but the schedule will see plenty of other quality fighters in action.
The UFC 217 schedule will see GSP take to the Octagon at around midnight local time
Cody Garbrandt and TJ Dillashaw used to be training partners but are anything but friends now after the later left Team Alpha Male in acrimonious circumstances.
Now, Garbrandt will defend his bantamweight title against former champion Dillashaw but not before Joanna Jedrzeczyk and Rose Namajunas have battled it out for the women’s strawweight strap.
So here’s the schedule for the UFC card of the year in New York, in order of expected appearance with the main event set to take place around 4am, depending on whether the other main card contests go the distance.
