UFC 251 PPV price: How much does it cost to watch the Kamaru Usman vs. Jorge Masvidal 'Fight Island' card?

After spending the past month hosting fights from Las Vegas, the UFC now heads to "Fight Island," where it will hold UFC 251 from Yas Island in Abu Dhabi. 

UFC 251 is headlined by welterweight champion Kamau Usman vs. Jorge Masvidal, who will take their heated rivalry inside the Octagon.

It's the fight everyone wanted as Usman and Masvidal have been embroiled in a heated feud since January when the two were involved in a shouting match on media row during Super Bowl week in Miami. 

Now they will get to settle their differences as the UFC welterweight champ faces the "BMF" titleholder. 

Masvidal is stepping in on short notice to replace Gilbert Burns, who tested positive for COVID-19 a week before the fight.   

In the co-main event, undefeated Alexander Volkanovski defends his UFC featherweight championship vs. Max Holloway. It's a rematch from their December fight, when Volkanovski defeated arguably the greatest 145-pounder in UFC history. 

And in another title fight, Petr Yan and former UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo will battle for the vacant UFC bantamweight championship. Yan is undefeated during his UFC tenure but will have to get past an all-time great.
