UFC is about to make history in Southeast Europe.
The promotion today announced the upcoming UFC Belgrade event for Aug. 1 at Belgrade Arena in Serbia. No fights have been attached to the Paramount+ fight card at this time, but hometown heroes like ranked welterweight Uros Medic (13-3) and “Contender Series” veteran Dusko Todorovic (13-6) are expected to be at or near the top of the card.
“MMA has become a prestigious and officially recognised sport in Serbia, with our athletes earning the respect they deserve,” said Luka Nikolic, President of the Serbian MMA Federation. “By bringing UFC to Belgrade, we want to show the world how firmly Serbia stands behind the MMA community. Our fans and fighters bring an energy that is truly unique, and through this partnership, we are ready to take the sport to new heights.”
“I have always wanted to bring UFC to every corner of the world. Serbia is our next stop,” said UFC CEO Dana White. “The passion of our European fans is incredible and I can’t wait to make our debut in Belgrade to deliver world-class fights. See you there!”
