The UFC 328 Countdown special is putting a bright spotlight on the flyweight title clash between champion Joshua Van and challenger Tatsuro Taira in the co-main event.
The preview segment breaks down the matchup ahead of UFC 328, which takes place Saturday at Prudential Center in Newark, N.J. The focus centers on Van’s first attempted defense of the flyweight belt against Taira, who is described as a slight favorite to win the title.
Van enters the fight with a 16-2 record in MMA and a 9-1 mark in the UFC, while Taira brings an 18-1 MMA record and an 8-1 UFC slate into the championship opportunity.
The promotion is branding the feature with its signature "Countdown" treatment as it builds anticipation for the co-main event showdown.
