UFC Returns to Montreal with Two Championship Fights

The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is set to return to Montreal on May 10, where two high-profile championship fights will take place. In the main event, welterweight champion Belal Muhammad will defend his title against challenger Jack Della Maddalena. Muhammad, who has not lost a fight in six years, seeks to end Della Maddalena’s 17-fight winning streak.

In the co-main event, women’s flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko will put her title on the line against Manon Fiorot. Shevchenko, considered one of the best pound-for-pound fighters, aims to begin a second run as flyweight champion after successfully defending it seven times during her first tenure.

UFC 315 marks the promotion’s return to Montreal in 10 years and promises to be an exciting event with several other fights announced, including a showdown between former welterweight title contender Gilbert Burns and surging Michael Morales.
