Fighters gathered in New York City on Friday for the final ceremonial weigh-ins ahead of the “UFC 334 event scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 14, 2026, at Madison Square Garden.”
The main event features an undisputed heavyweight title clash between champion Ciryl Gane and top contender Josh Hokit, as noted by “the latest UFC fight card reports.”
Gane inherited the title after Tom Aspinall was forced to vacate the belt due to a “devastating new eye injury earlier this year.”
During the final faceoff, Hokit directed harsh comments toward Gane regarding his training methods, stating, “You have a mental coach. Only p*ssies have mental coaches. Your career is over when you lose to a guy like me.”
Hokit further escalated the tension after the staredown by declaring, “Tomorrow night, the future is born, and the past is put in a f*cking casket.”
The co-main event features a significant matchup between women’s MMA legend Amanda Nunes and current bantamweight champion Kayla Harrison, “marking the first time Nunes will compete in over three years.”
Harrison enters the contest following a recovery from serious neck surgery, adding uncertainty to the highly anticipated bout, according to “promotional updates from the UFC.”
Other featured bouts on the card include Caio Borralho against Yousri Belgaroui, Uros Medic facing Kevin Holland, and a matchup between Bilal Hasan and Luis Gurule, as detailed in “the comprehensive event archive.”
The event will be broadcast live on Paramount+ starting at 9 p.m. ET, per “official announcements from the organization.”
All participants completed their final duties on stage, leaving the matchups to be decided in the cage tomorrow night.
