Things are heating up between Tommy McMillen and Marwan Rahiki before their UFC Fight Night 288 grudge match.
McMillen (11-0 MMA, 2-0 UFC) and Rahiki (9-0 MMA, 2-0 UFC), two undefeated featherweight prospects, are set to clash in the featured bout of Saturday's annual Noche UFC event at Saturday at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Ariz. (Paramount+)
The two young, brash, hungry fighters have said a lot in the media ahead of a potential trajectory-shifting matchup in their careers. With the card days away, McMillen and Rahiki ran into each other at the host hotel, and it quickly escalated into a heated argument with a glimpse of physicality.
