UFC 284 TO BE HELD IN AUSTRALIA

For the first time since October 2019, the UFC will be holding an event in Australia. Perth's RAC Arena has been confirmed as the host of UFC 284 on February 12. While the company may not have been on our shores for a few years, there's still plenty of talent from this part of the world lighting up the sport. Farah Hannoun of MMA Junkie reports that Mullarkey and Nasrat Haqparast are expected to share the Octagon at UFC 284, the upcoming pay-per-view event scheduled for Feb 12 at RAC Arena in Perth, Australia. Both fighters have confirmed the bout on their respective social media accounts. Mullarkey recently returned to the win column with a split decision over Michael Johnson in a ‘Fight of the Night’ awarded appearance at UFC Vegas 58 this past July. Prior to that, the 28-year-old saw a two-fight win streak snapped after he suffered a second-round TKO loss to Jalin Turner at UFC 272 in March.
