What's main eventing 312?

[markys00]

Early rumors were Volkanovski vs Lopes for interim FW title.

Not sure that even makes sense

Seems like adesanya is being used for the SA card, so it seems they need a strong main event

Weili? Shev? Nothing obvious comes to mind

 

[Brigfa2]

DDP

 

[tritestill]

They should announce someone real soon

 

[Fishmonger]

"'what's' main eventing...?"

the ufc might be main eventing 312, but that's just a rumor... could be saint nick and/or the pillsbury doughboy and/or those dang keebler elves

 

[SalvadorAllende]

DDP vs Strickland or Chimaev would be my guess

If not Alex Pereira hasn't fought in like 2 months.

 

[JoeRowe]

Topturio smokes Volk in front his people

You really think they would put DDP vs chimaev in Australia though? DDP vs strickland might be possible there

DDP

Against chimaev in Australia? Doesn't seem likely.

DDP vs. Strickland will probably happen in March or Aprilin the US. My guess? Topuria vs. Volk 2 or they just put Schev or Weill as the headliner and stack the rest of the card.

Strickland getting the shot would suck so bad

What about Shevchenko vs Weili?

What about Shevchenko vs Weili?

I hope they don't go the wmma route, but I guess that'd be a superfight of sorts.

Will topuria trip over some wires to create an interim belt for volk/lopes?

No reason for an interim title fight at FW. Not only did Ilia just fight, but he's not injured and hasn't given a reason for a long layoff.

What about Shevchenko vs Weili?

I didn’t think of that. That would actually be a genius move on their part as long as they would be comfortable with one woman potentially taking over two divisions again like Nunes.

That's why I inserted the wire trip joke, but yeah, in kinda stumped. I guess they could just throw a random title on there too.

Belal said his injury was minor? If shavkhat/Garry winner comes out okay, they could do that too

Yeah it's tough. I mean, the UFC would absolutely do Volk vs Lopes for the interim to save a PPV if there's no other choice. I think it would be the last choice though.

No update on Belal injury but it looked pretty bad when he showed it. Considering Shavkat vs Garry ISN'T for the interim title it suggests Belal may come back soon though.
