The event\ntakes place at Rogers Place, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Timing wise, the action\ntakes place in the evening of Saturday 27<sup>th<\/sup> July local time, so\ntaking the time difference into account, that\u2019s the early hours of Sunday 28<sup>th<\/sup>\nfor us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The headline fight sees Max Holloway go up against Frankie\nEdgar for the UFC Featherweight title. This will be Edgar\u2019s first time in the\nOctagon for over a year due to injuries. Will he have it in him to defeat\nHolloway, the current featherweight champion?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s also another great title fight contest on the bill\nwith Felicia Spencer vs Cris Cyborg in a battle for the UFC Women\u2019s\nFeatherweight title. Spencer has fought well lately, winning all of her last 7\nfights, but Cyborg is surely a very worthy adversary and has a lot of\nexperience in the Octagon.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Who\u2019s on the card for UFC 240?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Main Card<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Max Holloway vs. Frankie Edgar<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cris Cyborg vs. Felicia Spencer<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Geoff Neal vs. Niko Price<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Olivier Aubin-Mercier vs. Arman Tsarukyan<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marc-Andre Barriault vs. Krzysztof Jotko<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Undercard<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Viviane Araujo vs. Alexis Davis<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hakeem Dawodu vs. Yoshinori Horie<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gavin Tucker vs. Seung Woo Choi<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alexandre Pantoja vs. Deiveson Figueiredo<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gillian Robertson vs. Sarah Frota<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Erik Koch vs. Kyle Stewart<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tanner Boser vs. Giacomo Lemos<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lauren Murphy vs. Mara Romero Borella<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A look at the best <a href=\"https:\/\/www.speedyreg.co.uk\/search\/MAX\">MAX plates<\/a> available <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Talking about Max Holloway has reminded us that we have so many fantastic MAX <a href=\"https:\/\/www.speedyreg.co.uk\/personalised-number-plates\">personalised number plates<\/a>.
