Ultimate decided to innovate the official poster for UFC 230, an event that will take place on November 3rd, in New York (USA). With an illustration that closely resembles the 'X-Men' symbol, a team of comic book superheroes, the organization highlights the four main fighters on the card: Daniel Cormier e Derrick Lewis, who make the main event, and Chris Weidman e Luke Rockhold, who face off in the second most anticipated fight of the show.

This will be the first time that Cormier puts his heavyweight title on the line, won in July this year, when he knocked out Stipe Miocic at UFC 226. Before that, DC, who defended his light heavyweight belt on three occasions, beat Volkan oezdemir by technical knockout last January. In total, there are 10 wins, one loss and one unsuccessful fight in Ultimate. Lewis is also going through an enlightened phase. In the last 10 times he stepped into the Octagon, he recorded nine victories, seven of which were by knockout. In the UFC since 2014, the 'Black Beast' has accumulated 12 positive results and three negative results, having already beaten names like Gabriel Napao, Roy Nelson, Travis Browne and Francis Ngannou.
The rematch between Weidman and Rockhold takes place almost three years after the first confrontation. Since then, both have had identical records, with two defeats and one victory for each side. Interestingly, even the methods for defining the fights were the same: setbacks through knockouts and triumph through submission.
The UFC 230 card also has other important clashes confirmed on the show, such as Ronaldo Jacare x David Branch and Derek Brunson x Israel adesanya, in addition to Brazilians Sheymon Moraes and Marcos Foot, who face Julio Maple and Ruslan Magomedov, respectively.
