DALLAS – The complete UFC 277 bout card was in attendance for Thursday’s pre-fight press conference.
All five of the fights on pay-per-view, which follow the preliminary matches on ABC/ESPN and ESPN+, ended with some classic staredowns.
All the main event fights took place, including the two championship bouts at the top of the bill between Derrick Lewis (26-9 MMA, 17-7 UFC) and Sergei Pavlovich (15-1 MMA, 3-1 UFC), Alexandre Pantoja (244-5 MMA, 8-3 UFC), and Alex Perez (26-6 MMA, 6-2 UFC), as well as Magomed Ankalaev (17-1 MMA, 8-1 UFC) and Anthony Smith (17-1 MMA (36-16 MMA, 11-6 UFC).
The three non-title faceoffs were hard, but courteous, as you can see in the video above.
