UFC Fight Night 281 Du Plessis vs Usman

Sábado, 18 de julho de 2026 · 18:00

Paycom Center · Oklahoma City, OK · EUA

An electric atmosphere takes over the Paycom Center as the Octagon returns to Oklahoma for UFC Fight Night 281, headlined by a legacy-defining middleweight war between former divisional kingpin Dricus du Plessis and former dominant welterweight ruler Kamaru Usman. The primary hurdle for both elite mixed martial artists is navigating the extreme strategic layers of a true cross-divisional chess match, where du Plessis must neutralize his opponent's legendary wrestling base while Usman handles the jarring transition to a heavier weight class. The objective for the South African powerhouse is to dictate a grueling, chaotic pace from the center of the cage, weaponizing his signature physical blitzes to compromise Usman's legendary defensive shell. Concurrently, the mission for Nigeria's "Nigerian Nightmare" centers on executing a clinical tactical masterclass behind his sharp, piston-like jab, blending timed level changes with heavy top control to stifle the former champion's explosive output and instantly assert himself as a premium contender in the 185-pound landscape.

The Oklahoma City Thunder is an American professional basketball team based in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The team plays in the Northwest Division of the Western Conference in the National Basketball Association (NBA). Its home court is at Chesapeake Energy Arena. The Thunder's NBA Development League affiliate is the Oklahoma City Blue, which is owned by the Thunder.

Formerly the Seattle SuperSonics, the team relocated in 2008 after a dispute between owner Clay Bennett and lawmakers in Seattle, Washington. As the SuperSonics, the franchise qualified for the NBA Playoffs 22 times, won their division six times, and won the 1979 NBA Championship. In Oklahoma City, the Thunder qualified for their first playoff berth during the 2009–10 season. They followed that success by winning their first division title as the Thunder in the 2010–11 season and their first Western Conference championship as the Thunder in the 2011–12 season, appearing in the NBA Finals for the fourth time in franchise history and first since 1996, when the club was based in Seattle.
