UFC’s 2025 PPV action culminates this weekend from Las Vegas with UFC 323: Dvalishvili vs. Yan 2. The signature event, with two titles on the line, will be live from T-Mobile Arena on Saturday, Dec. 6, at 10 p.m. ET, exclusively on ESPN PPV (English, Spanish and Portuguese).

Main Event
- A showdown for the bantamweight title takes center stage when champion Merab Dvalishvili faces off against No. 3 Petr Yan in a sequel to the duo’s first battle to a decision victory for Dvalishvili in 2023. Dvalishvili (21-4), the 2025 ESPY Award winner for Best MMA Fighter on a 14-fight win streak, aims to become the first fighter to successfully defend a UFC title four times in one calendar year. Yan (19-5), a former division champion, is undefeated in his three Octagon appearances since his hard-fought loss to Dvalishvili and plans to even the score on Saturday with a statement performance and leave with the belt.
Co-Main Event
- The co-main event sees the night’s first title up for grabs when champion Alexandre Pantoja takes on No. 1 Joshua Van in an exciting flyweight contest. Pantoja (30-5), the division record holder for wins, finishes and submissions, goes for his fifth title defense adding to his eight-fight win streak that began in 2021 and back-to-back submissions in his most recent outings. Van (15-2), who holds the UFC record for most significant strikes landed per minute, is making his fourth Octagon appearance of 2025 looking to build on his five-fight win streak and emerge as champion in his first UFC title opportunity.
Additional PPV card highlights
- In a flyweight contest, two-time division champion No. 2 Brandon Moreno (23-8-2) goes head-to-head with No. 5 Tatsuro Taira (17-1), as Taira looks to make it 8-1 inside the Octagon and add to his five UFC stoppage victories.
- Former simultaneous two-division titleholder and U.S. Olympic gold medalist No. 10 Henry Cejudo (16-5) takes on Dana White’s Contender Series alum Payton Talbott (10-1) in a bantamweight showdown, as Talbott looks for a decisive fifth win inside the Octagon in his third appearance this year.
- In a light heavyweight bout to kick off the ESPN PPV main card, former division champion No. 5 Jan Blachowicz (29-11-1) goes up against No. 11 Bogdan Guskov (18-3), as Guskov aims to maintain his 100 percent career finish win rate including 13 in the first round.
