The last UFC event in London was on March 22 earlier this year, headlined by Leon Edwards vs Sean Brady.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prior to that, there was a UFC numbered card in Manchester, once again headlined by Edwards. July 2023 saw Tom Aspinall headline a UFC London card, with Edwards again headlining UFC 286 back in March 2023 in his trilogy with Kamaru Usman.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The UFC were also in London in July 2022, March 2022, March 2020 and March 2019. London isn\u2019t always the city the UFC puts shows on in the UK, with several in Liverpool, Manchester, Glasgow, Belfast, Nottingham, Birmingham and Newcastle dating back to the early 2000s.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, London has played host to the most UK UFC events, and is likely to host another major fight card in March 2026, judging by the latest UFC Europe social media tease.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Who Will Headline The Next UFC UK Event?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are a few possibilities when it comes to who could headline the next UFC Fight Night or numbered card in the UK.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With UFC London likely for the first quarter of 2026, there are a few major names who could feature on the bill.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">UFC heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall is of course recovering from his eye injuries following his eye-poke by Ciryl Gane in their no-contest fight at UFC 321 back in October.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Two-division UFC champion and arguably the greatest MMA fighter of all time <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/jon-jones-labels-tom-aspinall-incredibly-overrated\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jon Jones labelled Aspinall \u2018incredibly overrated\u2019<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, with the Manchester-based fighter potentially the main event of this pending announcement.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">See you at 7pm \ud83c\uddec\ud83c\udde7\ud83d\udc40\ud83c\udf7f <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7mXzcrt5py\">https:\/\/t.co\/7mXzcrt5py<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/rCZ9uLgx13\">pic.twitter.com\/rCZ9uLgx13<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Tom Aspinall (@AspinallMMA) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AspinallMMA\/status\/1995178670189850688?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 30, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That remains to be seen given Aspinall\u2019s current eye state, but it is a possibility that he could rematch Gane as soon as March. Another possible UFC London headliner could be undefeated featherweight contender Lerone Murphy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Murphy is currently ranked #4 in the 145-pound division, and has his sights firmly set on capturing the UFC Featherweight Title next year. His next fight won\u2019t be for the belt as Alexander Volkanovski vs Diego Lopes 2 is the featherweight title fight, but he could well find himself in a final eliminator.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/aljamain-sterling-vs-lerone-murphy-targeted-ufc-325\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aljamain Sterling vs Lerone Murphy<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was rumoured to be targeted for UFC 325 on January 31, but that fight could well headline the next UFC London card instead.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Arnold Allen already has a major fight announced, so it won\u2019t be him. Leon Edwards is said to be taking time out, with nobody else really a big enough name to headline in their own eight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The likelihood is that either Aspinall or Murphy will headline the UFC\u2019s next UK event, perhaps at UFC London in March.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">March UK against anyone.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; LERONE MURPHY (@LeroneMurphy) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LeroneMurphy\/status\/1994199442182852963?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 28, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The official UFC Europe social media account has teased a major fight announcement for the UK.
