The makeover to the top of the next month’s UFC 222 fight card has forced the UFC graphics department to redo promotional materials for the event.
Officials today revealed the updated poster design for “UFC 222: Cyborg vs. Kunitskaya.”
UFC 222 takes place March 3 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, and the main card airs on PPV following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass.
In the replacement main event, UFC women’s featherweight champion Cris Cyborg (19-1 MMA, 4-0 UFC) puts her title on the line against promotional newcomer Yana Kunitskaya (10-3 MMA, 0-0 UFC). And in the co-headliner, ex-lightweight champ Frankie Edgar (22-5-1 MMA, 16-5-1 UFC) meets surging featherweight contender Brian Ortega (13-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC), who agreed to step in for injured 145-pound champ Max Holloway (19-3 MMA, 15-3 UFC).
Here’s the official poster, featuring both fights (via Twitter):
