The Las Vegas-based promotion announced on Wednesday that UFC 312
will take place on Feb. 8 at Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney. No bouts
were revealed for the card.
UFC 312 is the second event of a four-year, multi-event agreement
as part of the promotion’s partnership with the New South Wales
Government. The Octagon last touched down in Sydney in September
2023 for UFC 293, which memorably saw Sean
Strickland claim middleweight gold with an upset victory over
Israel
Adesanya in the evening’s main event.
More recently, the company went Down Under for UFC 305 at RAC Arena
in Perth on Aug. 17. In the evening’s main event, Dricus Du
Plessis retained the 185-pound belt with a submission of
Adesanya.
UFC 312 is the first event of 2025 to be announced by the
promotion.
