UFC headed to Seattle for Fight Night event on Feb. 22

The UFC is heading back to Seattle.

On Saturday, during the UFC 310 broadcast, the promotion announced it will return to “The Emerald City” with a Fight Night event on Feb. 22 at Climate Pledge Arena.

The UFC has made three trips to Seattle in its history, with the most recent coming over a decade ago. The last time the promotion went to Seattle was in July of 2013 for UFC on FOX 8, headlined by a flyweight title fight between Demetrious Johnson and John Moraga. The event also featured welterweight scraps between Rory MacDonald and Jake Ellenberger, and Robbie Lawler and Bobby Voelker, and also took place at Climate Pledge Arena, though at the time it was called KeyArena.

There are no fights currently announced for UFC Seattle, though with a number of big names hailing from the Pacific Northwest, the card figures to be one that many fighters hope to be on.
