UFC 304 fight card: Full list and schedule headlined by Edwards vs. Muhammad 2 in Manchester

Two rematches with titles up for grabs headline a stacked UFC 304 card. The main event will see Leon Edwards (22-3, 1 NC) defending the UFC welterweight title against top contender Belal Muhammad (23-3, 1 NC) in a rematch from their controversial March 2021 clash.

The co-main event will see Tom Aspinall defend the interim UFC heavyweight title in a rematch against Curtis Blaydes. Aspinall (14-3) injured his knee in the opening minute of his fight against Blaydes in July 2022. Since then, he has won two straight, including a win against Sergei Pavlovich in November to win the interim heavyweight belt.

Blaydes (18-4, 1 NC) has gone 1-1 since that fight and is 4-1 in his last five contests. The winner of this contest could face the winner of the eventual Jon Jones vs. Stipe Miocic fight to determine the undisputed UFC heavyweight champion. That fight is expected in November. 

Also on the card will be the return of Paddy Pimblett against "King" Bobby Green. The Liverpool-born Pimblett (21-3) is on a seven-fight win streak, with his skills and what he says on the mic making him a polarizing figure. Green (32–15–1, 1 NC) has the most significant strikes (1,845) in UFC lightweight history. He is 13-10-1 with one no-contest in the octagon and 3-1 in his last four fights.

Muhammad Mokaev and Manel Kape face off in what could be a competitive flyweight fight. 

Mokaev (12 -0, 1 NC) is undefeated in MMA and 6-0 in the octagon, with four wins via submission. Ranked sixth in the UFC flyweight rankings, the Russian has the highest control time percentage mark (59.4%) in UFC flyweight history.

Ranked seventh in the rankings, Kape (19-6) is a former RIZIN bantamweight champion. He is 4-2 in the UFC and on a four-fight win streak. "Starboy" has had nine fights nixed since he signed with the UFC, whether due to injuries, weight issues, or positive drug tests.

Headlining the prelims will be Nathaniel Wood vs. Daniel Pineda. London’s Wood (19-6) looks to rebound after having his three-fight win streak snapped in his last bout. The former Cage Warriors bantamweight champion faces Pineda (28-15, 3 NC), a former Fury FC lightweight champion. Pineda is 1-1 with one no-contest in three fights.

Both are not ranked at featherweight. However, an impressive win could result in a number next to their name following their fight.

Liverpool's Molly McCann (14-6), 2-2 in her last four fights, against Bruna Brasil. McCann has been a feature on the U.K. cards and is the cousin of boxing great Katie Taylor. Brasil is a Dana White's Contender Series standout. "The Special One" (9-4-1) is also 2-2 in her last four fights. 

Oban Elliott (10-2) faces Preston Parsons on the early prelims. Elliott is on a six-fight win streak. “The Welsh Gangster” dominated with Cage Warriors and impressed on Dana White's Contender Series. Parsons (11-4) is 2-2 in his last four fights. "Pressure" has won nine contests via submission.
