Ilia Topuria vs Charles Oliveira
Only a few months after Topuria had left the UFC Feather Weal championship, he will be in the main event against a former champion for the non -bound belt.
This is because the most recent belt holder, Islam Makhachev, has left the UFC light weight title, which mimics Topuria to jump on a weight class to strive for more gold.
This guarantees that there will be a new champion at UFC 317, with the unbeaten Georgian the favorite to become a two -road champion.
However, Oliveira could match a historical record if he can force Topuria to tap and thereby become a double UFC light weight champion.
Alexandre Pantoja vs Kai Kara-France
The Co-Main event of the Bout-Pits Alexandre Pantojo against Kai Kara-France in a defense of his UFC flying weight.
Pantojo is one of the most underrated hunters in the UFC, despite dominating four title fights in a row.
The Kiwi opponent can be a dangerous hunter, but recent losses for Brandon Moreno and Amir Albazi will not give him confidence to enter UFC 317.
“The Cannibal” will be the favorite in his fight for Kara-France, but everything can happen in the UFC as soon as the bell rings.
Brandon Royval vs Joshua van van
On the Undercard, a second flight weight match places the top candidate in the division against an impressive emerging war artist.
Brandon Royval is the #1 ranked flight weight candidate, but a loss for champion Pantojo pushed him to the back of the line.
Two wins in a row, however, sent him back to a rematch with the champion, but he will have to go through Joshua in what should be a tough fight.
The Jager born in Myanmar is the first Burmese hunter in UFC history, and with only one loss in the promotion according to his name, he will strive for his third victory in 2025 at UFC 317.
He fights only a few weeks after the impressive victory of Van Op UFC 316, who helped his mother buy a house.
Benuze Dariush vs Renato Moicano
Because the lightweight champion is crowned in the main event, two top ten contenders will fight on the Undercard with a view to a future title shot.
#9 and #10 Ranked Beneil Dariush and Renato Moicano will fight in the Octagon on UFC 317 in what an exciting fight should be.
Moicano lasted less than a round against Makhachev in his last fight, and ruined his four-fighter profit reak, including two TKOs and one entry victory.
This will give Dariush Hope, also, recent loss of first round in his last two fights, it is likely that this fight will end quickly and with fireworks.
UFC 317 Prelim -Fights
Four fights have been announced for the Prelims, in particular the match of Jack Hermansson against Brazilian hunter Gregory Rodrigues.
The veteran Hermanson has spent almost a decade in the UFC, but a victory about Joe Pyfer last February showed that he still has a lot to give.
Elsewhere, Hyder Amil is confronted with Jose Delgado in a featherweight match, while the only women's fighting flies Viviane Araujo against Tracy Cortez.
The last Prelim fight is another lightweight competition, where it is expected that Terrance McKinney will beat Borshchev viacheslav to open the provisional event.
UFC 317 Early Prelims
