UFC is back on PPV this weekend with arguably its deepest card of 2025. The promotion heads to Miami with a vacant featherweight title fight anchoring a card that features some of the most prominent names in the sport today. Former featherweight king Alexander Volkanovski takes on Diego Lopes for the 145-pound title in the main event while Michael Chandler and Paddy Pimblett battle it out at lightweight in the co-main event. It all goes down from the Kaesya Center on Saturday night. 

Volkanovski’s momentum is tanking, but he can change everything in one night. Volkanovski is coming off consecutive KO losses to lightweight champion Islam Makhachev and former featherweight champ Topuria in title fights. Volkanovski wisely took 14 months off to recover and now has to face another hungry contender.

While Volkanovski competes in his 10th consecutive title fight, Lopes gets his first crack at gold. Lopes shot out of a cannon, taking the fight to renowned contender Movsar Evloev in a short notice losing effort. Lopes graduated from UFC debutant to title challenger in less than two years. He finished his first three opponents with full training camps before beating Dan Ige and Brian Ortega to become an elite featherweight.

Chandler and Pimblett meet in an intriguing five-round, non-title co-main event. Other highlights from the card include former interim featherweight titleholder Yair Rodriguez vs. decorated Bellator double champ Patricio Pitbull in the latter’s UFC debut and Jean Silva takes on Bryce Mitchell in something of a grudge match.

Below is the complete fight card for UFC 314 along with the latest odds. Check back all week long for the latest news, features and other content around this massive event.

Osm zápasů, tři trenéři. Vaclík o veletoči v novém klubu: Byl to extrém

Porto (od našeho zpravodaje) - Osmibodová ztráta na barážové místo je téměř pryč, Boavista stále může pomýšlet na udržení mezi elitou. V klubu z Porta lucemburského podnikatele Gérarda Lópeze je poslední měsíce ale rušno snad po všech stránkách. V zimě po odblokování přestupů dorazilo hned deset hráčů včetně Vaclíka právě s cílem se zachránit. V týdnu portugalská média informovala, že v areálu stadionu nešla kvůli dluhům elektrika. Zároveň od startu jarní části došlo k mnoha dalším personálním rošádám.Můžete krátce popsat, co všechno se v prvním týmu událo?Asi dva dny po mém příchodu skončil sportovní ředitel. Několikrát se změnil trenér gólmanů, na jedno utkání jsme dokonce žádného neměli. Co se týče hlavních koučů, skončil Lito Vidigal, který vedl tým jen šest utkání. Na dva zápasy to vzal Jorge Couto, tedy muž, který v Boavistě historicky pracoval. Následně byl angažován současný kouč Stuart Baxter. Takže tři hlavní a tři trenéři gólmanů za […]

Novak Djokovic’s tennis record made his ranking irrelevant, but he needs to care about it now

Novak Djokovic was as unequivocal as an athlete could be earlier this month, when he was asked what his goals were for the ongoing clay-court season.“Roland Garros,” he answered, referring to the French Open, in late May and early June, after losing his opening match in Monte Carlo, Monaco, to Alejandro Tabilo. “That’s it.”AdvertisementUnderstood. So what’s a player like that doing at a tournament like the Madrid Open?Sure, Madrid, which got underway this week, takes place on the red clay, just as the French Open does, but the similarities largely end there.The Spanish capital sits more than 2,000 feet above sea level, which allows the ball to fly and bounce during tennis matches in ways it won’t in Paris. The air is also dry, allowing the sun to bake the surface and make it behave more like a hard court […]

After spending big on defense in free agency, Colts continue to invest in revamped unit

INDIANAPOLIS — JT Tuimoloau knew he was in rare air. As a teenager at East Side Catholic High School in Seattle, his dream was to play in the NFL. But unlike most teenagers, his talent at the prep level put him in rooms few others his age could enter. Before the Indianapolis Colts selected Tuimoloau with the No. 45 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft on Friday night, the blueprint was laid before him years prior when he crossed paths with Seahawks legends Cliff Avril and Bobby Wagner — and an underdog still trying to prove himself at the highest level.AdvertisementThat underdog?Zaire Franklin, the Indianapolis Colts’ second-team All-Pro linebacker. But back then, he was a recent seventh-round pick training at Ford Sports Performance in Seattle with Avril and Wagner. Tuimoloau was there, too, having already soaked up a few years […]
