Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) brings us their first PPV of the year with UFC 311 going down at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California, TONIGHT (Sat., Jan. 18, 2025), streaming LIVE on ESPN+ PPV. UFC 311’s pay-per-view (PPV) main event was supposed to feature Lightweight champion Islam Makhachev defending his title against past opponent Arman Tsarukyan.

However, Tsarukyan was forced to withdraw last-second on Friday.

Renato Moicano — who was supposed fight Beneil Dariush on the PPV main card — will now fight Makhachev for the title. And the dangerous Brazilian is, “ready to shock the world!

The co-main will see UFC Bantamweight champ Merab Dvalishvili defend his title against Umar Nurmagomedov. ‘The Eagle’ Khabib Numagomedov was grounded earlier this week (video here), but he will be in LA to corner his friend and cousin in their championship fights.

UFC 311’s “Prelims” feature some name value and exciting match-ups. Those are headlined by undefeated hot prospect Payton Talbott, taking on Raoni Barcelos. Other notable fights on the “Prelims” include Grant Dawson vs. Diego Ferreira and Zacharay Reese vs. Azamat Bekoev.
