Mindblowing UFC Schedule Drops 🥊 🇨🇦 🇺🇸- Ilia Topuria and Charles Oliveira go toe-to-toe at UFC 317 in Sin City
Conor "Notorious" McGregor, the beverage entrepreneur and probable Irish President wannabe, was buzzing when news dropped about the Topuria-Oliveira lightweight brawl for UFC 317 in Las Vegas this June.
UFC boss Dana White announced the heavy-hitting event on social media. Islam Makhachev, the undisputed king of the MMA world, will hand over his lightweight title to chase a second belt against Jack Della Maddalena—but details on that fight are still under the wraps.
This showdown between Topuria and Oliveira will take place June 28 at the T-Mobile Arena.
When McGregor caught wind, he went off:
"Bloody hell, pumped as f**k again! Nice one, Dana! No doubts here!" A shower of cash emojis followed the post.
Recent online antics hint that McGregor might be more focused on advocating for a Bitcoin stash for the Emerald Isle.
de Plessis and Chimaev lock horns in August
Besides announcing the Topuria-Oliveira fight, old man Dana also revealed that Dricus du Plessis and Khamzat Chimaev would slug it out for the middleweight title at UFC 319 on August 16 at the United Center in Chi-town.
Rumors about this superfight have been swirling for months, and now it's officially on the books. Chimaev, the unstoppable Russian bumpkin, has been touted as the next big thing in the division.
Du Plessis, who already owns the middleweight gold, has a record of 23-2 and recently defeated Sean Strickland by unanimous decision on February 8 at UFC 312 in Down Under-land. Chimaev, the third-ranked contender, is a beast waiting to be unleashed.
Fans were clamoring for a Makhachev-Topuria slugfest, but it just ain't meant to be. Topuria snatched the featherweight crown at UFC 298 in February 2024 by KO'ing Alexander Volkanovski and successfully defended it against Max Holloway, the former featherweight champion, in October at UFC 308.
Stepping up in weight
Topuria, 28, relinquished his featherweight title earlier this year, yearning for a weight class challenge.
