UFC 302 now has an official main and co-main event. The June 1 pay-per-view event at Prudential Center in Newark, N.J., will feature one championship bout but two five-round fights. UFC CEO Dana White announced Saturday after UFC 300 that lightweight champion Islam Makhachev will defend his title against Dustin Poirier. Additionally, former middleweight champion Sean Strickland takes on Paulo Costa in a five-round co-main event. Makhachev (25-1 MMA, 14-1 UFC) seeks his third successful title defense and his first against someone not named Alexander Volkanovski
