Jack Della Maddalena talks upcoming UFC 275 fight against Ramazan Emeev
Jack Della Maddalena has a huge opportunity in front of him.
Maddalena will be fighting on the upcoming UFC 275 card on June 11, which will feature a light heavyweight title fight between Glover Teixiera and Jiri Prochazka, a flyweight title match between Valentina Shevchenko and Taila Santos and the card will also feature a rematch of the greatest women’s MMA fight of all time when Zhang Weili and Joanna Jedrzejczyk meet for the first time since their epic 2020 Fight of the Year.
While fans are buzzing over those three fights, it’ll be Maddalena who actually gets things started as he will kick off the main card against Ramazan Emeev.
For Maddalena, it shows how much the promotion thinks of him as he gets the honor of kicking off the main card of a huge pay per view event in just his second UFC outing.
Prior to the fight, Maddalena spoke with MyMMANews about his upcoming matchup with Emeev, the rise of Australian MMA and getting the opportunity to train alongside Alexander Volkanovski a few months ago.
