Do you have belts on the UFC 317 line?
Ilia Topuria vs Charles Oliveira and Alexandre Pantoja vs Kai Kara-France have both been announced as two major matches at UFC 317. This means that there are two official UFC titles on the line.
In the main event, the “Elmatador” and “Do Bronx” Rockhorns feature vacant UFC lightweight titles following Islamic Makhachev’s decision to abandon the belt in favour of a move to Welter Weight.
The UFC 317 main event marks Topuria’s third consecutive UFC title fight, but it’s his first fight at 155 pounds. For Oliveira, this was his fourth UFC lightweight title contest, previously dominated the 155-pound division for a short period of time.
The second belt on the UFC 317 line will become the co-main event as 125 pound king “Cannibal” aims to defend the UFC flyweight title against Kai Kara-France.
This fight marked Kara-France’s first shot in UFC Gold in his career, with Pantoja aiming to successfully defend his fourth 125 pound crown.
