Bengaluru, January 19: The Ultimate Fighting Championship arrives in Boston as TD Garden is all set to witness two title fights in the first pay-per-view of the year - UFC 220: Miocic vs. Ngannou on Saturday (January 20).

In one of the most anticipated fights, Heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic defends his belt against Francis Ngannou in main event, while Daniel Cormier meets Volkan Oezdemir for the Light Heavyweight championship in the co-main event.

The Nigerian Ngannou is currently one of the promising stars in MMA and stopped top challenger Alistair Overeem in his last contest by a sick knockout, however, Miocic is an experienced champ and is very close to breaking UFC record for most heavyweight title defences.

In the co-headliner, Cormier starts favourite against the division's rising Oezdemir, but the Swiss star has shown devastating power and holds a significant height advantage over the champ.

Also on the main card, Featherweight knockout artists Calvin Kattar and Shane Burgos collide, light heavyweights Gian Villante and Francimar Barroso lock horn, and the main card opener is a bantamweight showdown between Rob Font and Thomas Almeida.
