The UFC dropped its latest posters on Instagram last night, both using the same color scheme we saw for UFC 245, the event headlined by Kamaru Usman’s title defense against Colby Covington. UFC Norfolk goes down Feb. 29 in Virginia. UFC 248 is scheduled for Mar. 7 in Las Vegas.
Headlining UFC Norfolk is a flyweight battle for the belt stripped from Henry Cejudo, with Joseph Benavidez and Deiveson Figueiredo competing for the title.
At the top of the UFC 248 card is a middleweight title bout between champ Israel Adesanya and challenger Yoel Romero. Co-headlining the event is a strawweight title fight between champ Weili Zhang and former champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk.
