UFC 251 Countdown Featuring Alexander Volkanovski-Max Holloway

A few changes needed to be made to UFC 251 after Gilbert Burns was pulled due to COVID-19.

However, as is always the case with the UFC, the show goes on.

In the new headline bout Saturday night, Jorge Masvidal steps in for Burns to challenge Kamaru Usman for his welterweight title.
