Joshua Van vs. Alexandre Pantoja 2, Arman Tsarukyan vs. Mauricio Ruffy set as full UFC 331 card revealed
Published
10 hours agoon
The main event for UFC 331 is finally set with Joshua Van defending his flyweight title in a rematch against former champion Alexandre Pantoja, who is now healthy and ready to compete again.
In the co-main event, Arman Tsarukyan faces Mauricio Ruffy in a five-round fight between lightweights who are both jockeying for a title shot against current champion Justin Gaethje.
The main event features Pantoja making his return to action after a freak injury ended his dominant title reign in his first fight against Van in 2025. Pantoja fell awkwardly during an exchange and his arm popped, which forced the fight to be stopped in the opening round.
While he recovered, Van took over as UFC flyweight champion and made a successful defense of his title in a potential Fight of the Year candidate against Tatsuro Taira in May. Now Van looks to settle any debates about his championship reign when he faces Pantoja in a rematch now scheduled for September.
In the co-main event, widely considered the top lightweight contender in the UFC, Tsarukyan returns after spending the better part of the past year making a name for himself in RAF where he's been wrestling almost every month. Now he gets back to business in the UFC trying to build on his five-fight win streak, which includes wins over Charles Oliveira, Beneil Dariush and Dan Hooker.
As for Ruffy, he looks to carry the momentum from a standout performance at the UFC White House card where he demolished Michael Chandler to extend his winning streak to three in a row overall when he returns at UFC 331.
In addition to the main and co-main events, the rest of the UFC 331 card was also announced, although the full bout order is still to be determined. Take a look below at all of the fights now official for UFC 331 in Los Angeles on Sept. 19

Bo Nickal vs. Olympic champion Shirvani Muradov set for RAF Moscow

Ultimate Fighting Championship bout.Bo Nickal prepares for Real American Freestyle matchup against
Nickal will remain active on the wrestling mats while awaiting
his next
Ultimate Fighting Championship bout.
The UFC middleweight has been booked for another Real American
Freestyle matchup, as the promotion recently announced that Nickal
will face Olympic gold medalist Shirvani Muradov.
Bo Nickal prepares for Real American Freestyle matchup against
2008 Olympic gold medalist Shirvani Muradov
Nickal has booked another RAF appearance shortly after his RAF 12
bout with Max McEnelly, which will take place on Aug. 22. He will
face Muradov in Moscow on Sept. 5, according to an announcement
from RAF on X.
Nickal last competed at
UFC Freedom 250, where he earned a first-round victory over
Kyle
Daukaus to extend his winning streak. Instead of waiting for
his next fight, Nickal is continuing to hone his wrestling
skills.
The 30-year-old made his RAF debut at the promotion’s inaugural
event in August 2025, defeating Jacob Cardenas on points. This new
challenge could be a difficult one for Nickal. Muradov previously
won Olympic gold in freestyle wrestling at the 2008 Games in
Beijing in the 96kg (212 pounds) category. He also has far more
experience than the American collegiate wrestling standout.
RAF Moscow streams live on Fox Nation on Sept. 5.

Joe Rogan advises Rico Verhoeven to choose boxing over the UFC
Published
7 hours agoon
August 5, 2026
Joe Rogan believes Rico
Verhoeven will financially benefit more from boxing than from
joining the
Ultimate Fighting Championship.Joe Rogan says boxing makes the ‘most sense' as next career
Verhoeven will financially benefit more from boxing than from
joining the
Ultimate Fighting Championship.
Verhoeven recently asked for Rogan's suggestion about competing
inside the Octagon during an appearance on the UFC commentator's
podcast.
Joe Rogan says boxing makes the ‘most sense' as next career
move for Rico Verhoeven
The former Glory Kickboxing champion noted that Conor
McGregor had reportedly earned a massive payday for his return
fight last month, which lasted 69 seconds. However, Rogan advised
the 37-year-old against signing with the UFC at this point in his
career.
Rogan believes Verhoeven can earn more money in boxing. He also
claimed that Verhoeven's friend and training partner Tom
Aspinall could have a career in boxing in the future and that
the Brit will benefit from working with Eddie Hearn.
“For you, boxing makes the most sense, especially at this point in
your life, financially,†Rogan told Verhoeven. “For Tom, he has a
potential career in boxing as well. And now that Eddie Hearn is
managing him, which is very exciting because Matchroom being behind
him is gonna have a gigantic hype machine, gigantic promotion. They
are at odds with the UFC. For me, I care about the fighters making
the most money possible, and that's how [Tom] is gonna make the
most money possible.â€
Verhoeven vacated his Glory heavyweight title last year after
defending it against Artem
Vakhitov, the last man to beat Alex
Pereira in kickboxing. The Dutchman then challenged former
champ Oleksandr Usyk this past May. While Verhoeven was a massive
underdog, he led the dance for the most part before slowing down in
the later rounds.
Seemingly en route to a potentially monumental upset win, he was
knocked down late in the 11th round. While Verhoeven returned to
his feet, Usyk followed up and the referee bizarrely stopped the
fight with a second left in the stanza.
