Alexander Volkanovski vs. Brian Ortega for the featherweight title has been booked for UFC 260 on March 27, according to
Ariel Helwani
The hope is for the fight to serve as co-main for a card headlined by Miocic vs. Ngannou 2 for the HW title, tho, that fight isn't finalized yet.
Alexander Volkanovski is the current UFC Featherweight Champion which he won by defeating Max Holloway. Volkanovski made his first title defense in a rematch against Max Holloway on 11 July 2020 at UFC 251. He won the fight via split decision.
Ortega was scheduled to face Chan Sung Jung on December 21, 2019, at UFC on ESPN+ 23. However, Ortega pulled out of the fight in early December citing a knee injury.
The bout against Jung eventually took place on October 18, 2020, at UFC Fight Night: Ortega vs. The Korean Zombie. Dropping Jung multiple times, Ortega won the one-sided match by unanimous decision.
