UFC 334 Championship Fights Proceed Amidst Makhachev Retirement Dismissal

UFC 334's championship bouts are officially set after all fighters, including title contenders Ciryl Gane, Josh Hokit, Kayla Harrison, and Amanda Nunes, successfully made weight on Friday. The event is poised to deliver significant championship action, with Gane defending his heavyweight title against Hokit and Harrison facing Nunes for the women's featherweight championship.

While the focus is on the upcoming title fights, recent speculation about UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev's retirement has been definitively addressed by the fighter himself, who has reaffirmed his commitment to the sport and dismissed any immediate plans to step away. This clarification comes amidst the excitement for UFC 334 and the conclusion of the promotion's 2026 schedule, with UFC 335 also on the horizon.
