Zhang, with a record of 26-3, also relinquished her 115-pound championship to compete at 125 pounds.\n\nMakhachev defended his lightweight title four times before announcing his move up in weight. He will attempt to achieve what his mentor, Khabib Nurmagomedov, never could: become a two-division champion.\n\nDella Maddalena (18-2), from Perth, Australia, hasn&#8217;t suffered a defeat since his first two professional fights in 2016. He conquered the UFC title after defeating Belal Muhammad by unanimous decision in May.\n\nZhang is coming off a title defense against Tatiana Suarez in February. Shevchenko, at 37 years old, is the most dominant flyweight fighter in UFC history, with two titles and eight defenses.\n\nWhite also announced a welterweight fight on the main card between former champion Leon Edwards (22-5) and the promising Brazilian contender Carlos Prates (22-7).","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Luxury UFC Card in New York A couple of super fights will headline the annual UFC pay-per-view event in New York City.
