The UFC's return to the Pacific Northwest continues to shape up as one of the most compelling fight cards the promotion has offered in recent memory. On March 28 at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, Washington, the organization will showcase a diverse lineup of talent headlined by former middleweight champion Israel Adesanya's much-anticipated comeback against rising contender Joe Pyfer. However, the undercard is generating significant buzz of its own, particularly with the addition of featherweight prospect Lerryan Douglas facing UFC veteran Julian Erosa.

Erosa's inclusion on the UFC Seattle card represents an exciting opportunity for the 29-year-old striker to continue building momentum in the talent-rich featherweight division. Known for his technical striking and fight IQ, Erosa brings a veteran presence to what should be a compelling matchup against the heavy-hitting Douglas. The featherweight division has become increasingly competitive in recent years, with fighters consistently delivering high-caliber performances that captivate fans worldwide. This bout fits perfectly into that narrative, offering viewers an engaging preliminary card fight that could easily steal the show.

The full Seattle lineup reflects the UFC's commitment to delivering substance throughout the entire card, rather than relying solely on headline-grabbing main event talent. From the heavyweight clash between ranked contenders Marcin Tybura and Valter Walker to the women's strawweight showdown between Nicolle Caliari and Caroline Foro, every fight carries implications for fighters looking to climb the divisional rankings. The co-main event rematch between former flyweight champion Alexa Grasso and surging contender Maycee Barber adds another layer of championship-level intrigue.
