UFC 323 is finally here and is set to take place in Las Vegas for the last two title fights of the year. In the main event, the bantamweight title is at stake as Merab Dvalishvili defends his title for the fourth time this year, facing Petr Yan in a rematch.

Dvalishvili (21-4-0) is looking to make UFC history by achieving the most consecutive bantamweight title defenses. He aims for his fourth victory of the year as he steps into the octagon to face Yan. Yan (19-5-0) is currently on a three-fight winning streak, with two victories in 2024 and a win in 2025 against Marcus McGhee by unanimous decision. His last loss occurred in March 2023 when he was defeated by Dvalishvili via unanimous decision.

The co-main event features flyweight champion Alexandre Pantoja (30-5) defending his title against Joshua Van (15-2) in his fifth defense since winning the title in July 2023.
