UFC Perth Live Streaming: Maddalena vs Prates headlines main fight card - Preview, Date, Start Time, Full Card, Venue and More

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) returns to Perth, for the fourth straight year, delivering another Fight Night packed with talent from Australia and New Zealand. The main event features hometown favorite Jack Della Maddalena taking on dangerous Brazilian finisher Carlos Prates in what promises to be a thrilling showdown.

For Della Maddalena, this fight marks his first appearance since losing his title to Islam Makhachev at Madison Square Garden last November. While the defeat was one-sided, it came against one of the most dominant fighters in UFC history, who remains unbeaten for over a decade. Before that setback, the 29-year-old Perth native had built an impressive run, winning eight straight UFC fights, including a hard-fought title victory over Belal Muhammad.



Prates arrives in strong form after bouncing back from his first UFC loss last year. He has since delivered back-to-back highlight-reel knockouts, first finishing Geoff Neal with a spinning back elbow in Chicago, and then repeating the feat against former champion Leon Edwards at Madison Square Garden. Both wins earned him Performance of the Night bonuses and reinforced his reputation as a dangerous striker.

This matchup feels perfectly timed for both fighters. Maddalena has the chance to prove he still belongs among the division’s elite and quickly recover from his title loss. Meanwhile, Prates is looking to build momentum by defeating another high-profile opponent on a big stage.

With stakes high and styles that promise action, this main event could play a key role in shaping the future of the division.
