THE wives and girlfriends of some of the best mixed martial artists on the planet will be in Las Vegas this weekend for one of the sport's biggest-ever events.
A slew of MMA's finest will be in action in Sin City this weekend for UFC 300, which takes place at the T-Mobile Arena.
And they'll be cheered on by their glamorous other halves, who will no doubt steal a gaze or two from fight fans.
So with that in mind, SunSport thought it'd only be right to bring you the lowdown on some of the WAGs set to be in attendance at UFC 300.
Rebecca Cruz - girlfriend of Aljamain Sterling
Former men's bantamweight champion Sterling began dating the love of his life all the way back in 2011, ten years before he popped the question.
Cruz is immensely successful in her own right and owns the NYX Professional Makeup company.

The 32-year-old is no stranger to turning heads and even caught the eye of boxing icon Floyd Mayweather, who Sterling claimed tried to "steal" her during a pool party in Vegas.
During an appearance on the Spinning Backfist podcast, he said: “He [Mayweather] sent over his minions to try to pick her [Cruz] up.
“I was still undefeated at the time. So, he sent over a girl. No, I think he sent over a guy first. Told us like, 'Yeah we both come down.'

“I’m like, 'Man, I’m not stupid.
"We come over you guys will try to take her off, try to push me back and then I’m gonna feel some type of way.
"Like, 'Nah, now I’ve gotta create a scene ‘cause you’re not about to punk me like that.”
“He left and came back with a girl and this girl’s like, ‘Really, he said you guys both can come down.'"
Victoria Brum - girlfriend of Charles Oliveira
Former lightweight champion Oliveira began dating the Brazilian beauty following his separation from ex-wife Talita Roberta Pereira.
She first came on the radar of MMA fans after 'Do Bronx' shared a post-fight snap of them on Instagram last November with the accompanying caption: "My babe."
It's unclear how long the couple have been together, as is what the brunette bombshell does for a living.
Maddie Nickal - wife of Bo Nickal
Surging middleweight prospect Bo Nickal met the love of his life - with whom he tied the knot in December 2020 - during their time at Penn State University.
Bo was an NCAA Division 1 wrestler at Penn State, where Maddie - the daughter of NFL linebacker Rob Holmberg - also competed as an athlete.
Maddie - who is a qualified nutritionist - was a three-time All-American in Track and Field in both the heptathlon and pentathlon.
The Nickals recently celebrated the birth of their first child, Ace, who they welcomed into the world last December.
The pair began dating in February 2020 and eventually tied the knot in April 2022.
Alessa was a popular figure long before she met Max due to her exploits on the waves.
The former No83-ranked female surfer boasted over 500,000 Instagram followers before she began dating 'Blessed'.
As well as competing professionally, Alessa spends her days making surfing content for her social media pages including a YouTube channel.
Sophia Romano - girlfriend of Justin Gaethje
Cheering on fan favourite Gaethje as he takes on Holloway will be the stunning Sophia Romano.
According to reports, the couple's relationship stemmed from a match on a popular dating app.
