The Ultimate Fighting Championship continues to fill out its schedule for the fourth quarter of 2019, as the promotion’s announced the date for the expected, Max Holloway versus Alexander Volkanovski fight.

Recently the company announced that Holloway vs. Volkanovski will headline UFC 245, which will take place on December 14th in Las Vegas. The event will be hosted by the city’s T-Mobile Arena.

Holloway (21-4) defended the featherweight title in July by outscoring Frankie Edgar for the decision win. Prior to that, at UFC 236 in April, the Hawaiian star lost via decision to now-former interim lightweight champ, Dustin Poirier.

Volkanovski (20-1), meanwhile, is coming off a decision win over former 145 champ Jose Aldo in May. The Australian fighter has won all seven of his UFC bouts to date.
