One of the biggest MMA cards of the year is upon us, UFC 280, with both the vacant lightweight title on the line with (technical) former champion Charles Oliveira set to offer Islam Makhachev his biggest career fight to date while defending bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling puts his title on the line against former champ TJ Dillashaw.

On this week's All Things MMA with Ken McGuire and pro fighter Myles Price we'll have a look at the top three fights on the main card and what comes next with reports that featherweight king Alexander Volkanovski will be next in line for the new lightweight champion while the winner of Sean O'Malley and Petr Yan looks set to face whoever leaves Abu Dhabi with the bantamweight strap.

There's also talk of the next or final steps for Tony Ferguson while we've been reviewing footage of power slapping in the wake of news that a 'power slap league' could be heading to the UFC Apex.
