When is UFC London 2026? Fight card, tickets and how to watch Lerone Murphy vs Movsar Evloev

The UFC is back in London this weekend, with a pivotal match-up headlining a card full of British talent. In the main event, Manchester’s Lerone Murphy takes on Movsar Evloev in an intriguing featherweight clash, with one man set to lose his unbeaten record – and the other likely to earn a shot at champion Alexander Volkanovski . Evloev last week denied he was having Visa issues , after a rumour circulated that Jean Silva would be stepping in for the Russian, so the O2 Arena’s headline bout looks set to go ahead as planned.

And what of Silva? He may even challenge Volkanovski before the winner of Saturday’s main event does. ‘The Miracle’ Lerone Murphy survived being shot in the face in his early 20s (Getty Images) Elsewhere on the UFC London card, Paddy Pimblett’s teammates Luke Riley and Shem Rock step out to represent Liverpool, Michael “Venom” Page and Sam Patterson meet in an all-British bout , and fan favourite Nathaniel Wood is in action.

Furthermore, heavyweights Louie Sutherland and Mario Pinto will make their domestic debuts in the UFC, with the latter aiming to stay unbeaten as a pro . Here’s all you need to know. When is UFC London?
