With UFC 231 going down in Toronto this week, the UFC kicked off the proceedings with a live press conference Wednesday afternoon, featuring the key players from the weekend’s big show.
UFC 231 goes down Saturday night in Toronto, Ontario. Topped by a featherweight title fight between champ Max Holloway and challenger Brian Ortega, the Great White North was getting a stacked card. In addition to Holloway vs. Ortega, the vacant women’s flyweight title was on the line. In the co-main event, Valentina Shevchenko would face off against old rival Joanna Jedrzejczyk, once the most dominant strawweight in the UFC.
