Francis Ngannou will be out of contract if he loses against Ciryl Gane at UFC 270 tonight, but he will owe the promotion another fight if he wins.
Ngannou defends his UFC heavyweight title for the first time against interim titleholder Gane on the promotion's first pay-per-view of the year.
The story heading into Ngannou's title defence has been about his confusing UFC contract, which has even left the fighter uncertain about his future.
