UFC 317 was hit arduous this week as the principle card matchups involving Paulo Costa have been rescheduled at a later date.
Former UFC middleweight title challenger, Brazilian Costa was scheduled to fulfill Roman Kopirov, Russia, on the principle card for the occasion on June twenty eighth. Nevertheless, in line with a report by Laerta Viana, Brazilians are sick. This compelled the UFC to maneuver its combat towards Kopirov to UFC 318. That is scheduled for July nineteenth.
This is what the UFC 317 lineup will seem like in the intervening time with that shakeup:
UFC 317 fundamental card for ESPN+ PPV
- 155 lbs: Ilia Topuria vs. Charles Oliveira is a vacant UFC light-weight title
- 125 kilos: Alexandre Pantja vs Kaikara France for UFC flyweight titles
185 kilos: Paulo Costa vs Roman Kopirov- 155 kilos: Beneil Dalüche vs. Renato Moicano
- 125 kilos: Brandon Roybal vs. Joshua Van
ESPN/ESPN+ UFC 317 Qualifiers
- 155 kilos: Terrance McKinney vs. Viacheslav Borshchev
- 135 kilos: Payton Talbot vs. Feliperima
- 145 kilos: Haider Amil vs. Jose Delgado
- 185 kilos: Jack Hermanson vs. Gregory Rodriguez
- 125 kilos: Brandon Roybal vs. Joshuavan (not a Manel Cape)
- 170 kilos: Nico Value vs. Jacobesmith
- 265 kilos: Jhonata Diniz vs. Alvin Hines
- 125 kilos: Viviane Araujo vs. Tracy Cortez
Whether or not it occurs later this month or at UFC 318 in July, Costa might want to win the battle with Kopirov. Regardless of being a former title challenger and a longtime member of the highest 15 middleweight division, the Brazilian is on a severe skid.
In his closing battle, Costa suffered an unforgettable determination loss to former champion Sean Strickland. Earlier than that, the Brazilian suffered one other determination loss to a different former champion of Robert Whitaker. His closing victory dates again to 2022, when he decided to former champion Luke Rockhold.
There isn’t any information but as as to whether the UFC will add one other combat to the pay-per-view on June twenty eighth to switch the Costa vs. Kopirov battle. keep tuned.
