Revenge, Gold & Knockouts: UFC 320 and 321 Main Events Locked In

Revenge, Gold & Knockouts: UFC 320 and 321 Main Events Locked In

Dana White just dropped the fight fan equivalent of a mic. The UFC boss announced two blockbuster title fights—and a few more bangers—for UFC 320 in Las Vegas and UFC 321 in Abu Dhabi, both set to deliver championship chaos this October.

🎯 UFC 320: Light Heavyweight Rematch + Bantamweight Gold

📍 T-Mobile Arena – Las Vegas | October 4, 2025

Headlining UFC 320 is a high-stakes rematch for the light heavyweight championship, as reigning champ Magomed Ankalaev looks to defend his title against the dangerous Alex Pereira. Their first clash at UFC 313 saw Ankalaev snap Pereira’s reign via unanimous decision—now “Poatan” wants revenge and a second run with the belt.

In the co-main, red-hot bantamweight champ Merab Dvalishvili returns for his third title defense of the year against crafty contender Cory Sandhagen. After dismantling both Umar Nurmagomedov and Sean O’Malley, Merab has a strong case for Fighter of the Year. But Sandhagen’s bounce-back win over Deiveson Figueiredo proves he’s still a major threat in the division.

Also on the card: A light heavyweight slugfest between former champ Jiří Procházka and power-punching Khalil Rountree Jr. With 36 knockouts combined, expect this one to deliver either a highlight reel finish—or a top contender.

🛑 UFC 321: Heavyweight Title on the Line

📍 Etihad Arena – Abu Dhabi | October 25, 2025

Over in Abu Dhabi, Tom Aspinall will defend his undisputed UFC heavyweight championship against France’s own Ciryl Gane in a battle of elite athletes and sharp strikers.

Aspinall’s last outing? A 62-second KO of Curtis Blaydes at UFC 304. He’s done waiting for Jon Jones and wants to define his reign on his own terms. Gane, a former interim champ, is coming off back-to-back wins and enters as perhaps the most technically gifted striker Aspinall has faced to date.

Dana White isn’t holding back. UFC 320 and UFC 321 are shaping up to be the most loaded back-to-back cards since the pandemic era doubleheaders. From light heavyweight vengeance to heavyweight supremacy, October is pure violence with belts on the line. Ankalaev looks nearly untouchable, but if anyone can shock the system, it’s Pereira. Meanwhile, Aspinall’s quest to become the UFC’s most active heavyweight champ begins with a dangerous test in Gane. The road to year-end glory starts here.
