UFC 298 at the Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif., features a three-part fight card airing on ESPN+, UFC Fight Pass, ESPN, and ESPN+ starting at 6:30 p.m. ET. The event culminates in a featherweight title fight between Alexander Volkanovski and Ilia Topuria as the main event of the ESPN+ pay-per-view at 10 p.m. ET.
Former UFC bantamweight champion Henry Cejudo advises Alex Volkanovski to skip his upcoming title fight against Ilia Topuria at UFC 297 and take time to heal from his recent knockout loss. Cejudo believes that Volkanovski's candidness about his struggles and anxieties has exposed him to potential opponents who may try to exploit his vulnerabilities. On the other hand, Cejudo suggests that Topuria should capitalize on Volkanovski's concussion and challenge him on January 20th for a better chance of winning. A decision on the fight is expected in the coming weeks.
