UFC 317: Topuria vs Oliveira Preview + Odds
A New Flyweight Champ Will Be Crowned
UFC returns to Las Vegas with a true banger. The entire card is stacked with impressive fights, and the men’s Lightweight division is in need of a new champ. The main event needs no introduction, as Ilia Topuria puts his undefeated record on the line against one of the most dangerous veterans in the game, Brazilian standout Charles Oliveira. This is a classic clash of striking vs. ground game. Topuria will need to keep the fight standing and try to finish Charles early, because the longer it goes, the more likely it hits the mat, and we all know how dangerous Oliveira is on the ground. Topuria enters as a heavy favorite at -425, but that line could be tricky. Yes, he’s undefeated and has looked unbeatable, but he’s moving up in weight, and Oliveira has been battling elite talent for the past five years. In our opinion, don’t count Do Bronx out just yet.
Co-Main and Rest of The Card Is Stacked
This is easily one of the best cards the UFC has put together in 2025. In the co-main event, Alexandre Pantoja looks to secure his fourth title defense as he takes on Kai Kara-France, who finally gets his long-awaited title shot. Flyweight bouts are always action-packed, so expect fireworks in this one. Pantoja enters as a modest -230 favorite. Other standout matchups include Brandon Royval vs. Joshua Van, also in the Flyweight division, Beneil Dariush vs. Renato Moicano, Viviane Araujo vs. Tracy Cortez, and more.
