266, 267, 268 and 269 were the best damn back to back handful of “numbered” UFC events (since only three were PPV) I can remember watching in forever.
I’ll be honest, I don’t like 270 as a whole very much compared to 266-269 but I still like the top 3 fights on the card and will watch the PPV portion of the card. Would be great if 2022 has a period of back to back cards as good as 266-269, fuck that was fun.

Card on the weekend was one for the books!
I would actually buy that card above but you are right, it is only for the top 3 fights.
Yeah man, I’d seriously have to look back hard a wiki to find better handful of UFC shows than 266-269, they just delivered bigtime.
I dont know if it will be a fun, exciting fight but I am interested in seeing how Evloev and Topuria plays out.
Even the recent Fight Nights… look how entertaining the Costa, Holloway and Aldo main events were recently.
4th quarter of 2021 was just incredible for prizefighting and it started in the beginning of October with Fury vs Wilder III.
Just an exceptional few months of fights.
That 266, 267, 268 run was superb.
