UFC 271: What is the start time for the UFC fight tonight (February 12, 2022)?

UFC 271: Adesanya vs. Whittaker 2 is set to take place on Saturday, February 12, 2022 inside the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas. It promises to be a historic night for the company.

The card is headlined by Israel Adesanya, who will defend his UFC middleweight title against Robert Whittaker in a rematch of their UFC 243 bout from 2019. 'The Last Stylebender' defeated Whittaker in their first fight and has run through the division in his ensuing three title defenses.

'The Reaper' has also been on a roll, notching up three consecutive wins since losing the title. UFC 271 presents Whittaker's much-awaited opportunity to reclaim the 185-pound title.

In the co-headliner, Derrick Lewis will return in front of his hometown crowd. He will look to secure his second straight victory in the octagon and make his way back to the title picture. 'The Black Beast' will lock horns with Tai Tuivasa, who is riding a four-fight win streak in the promotion. 'Bam Bam' will look to make his own case for a title shot when he takes on the No.3-ranked Lewis.

Nasrat Haqparast and Bobby Green will open Saturday's UFC 271 main card in a lightweight bout.
