UFC returns to Edmonton for the first time since 2019 with a pair of thrilling flyweight contenders' clashes in the headliner of UFC Edmonton 2024: Moreno vs. Albazi, which takes place at Rogers Palace on Saturday, November 2, 2024.

The event will mark the first UFC event in Edmonton in over five years. Since debuting in the Great White North with UFC 83: Serra vs. St-Pierre 2 in 2008, UFC has held a total of 33 premiere sporting events in Canada that span across 11 cities.

Former UFC flyweight champion and No. 2 ranked Brandon Moreno battles No. 3 Amir Albazi in a pivotal bout. Also, No. 3 ranked flyweight contender Erin Blanchfield squares off with No. 5 Rose Namajunas in the first women's non-title, five-round co-main event in UFC history.

A two-time UFC flyweight champion, Moreno looks to cap off his year with a statement-making performance. Moreno holds spectacular victories over Deiveson Figueiredo, Kai Kara-France and Brandon Royval. He now aims to halt Albazi's momentum to set himself up for another world title opportunity.

Albazi intends to shine in his second UFC main event. Currently riding a six-fight win streak, he has earned impressive victories against Kai-Kara France, Alessandro Costa and Francisco Figueiredo. Albazi now has his sight set on taking out a former UFC titleholder to stake his claim for a shot at the gold.

Blanchfield plans to defend her spot in the rankings by taking out another former UFC champion. Victorious in nine of her last 10 bouts, she holds memorable wins over Taila Santos, Jessica Andrade and Molly McCann.

Namajunas intends to secure her third consecutive victory at 125 pounds.
