UFC 312 results from Australia
Two UFC titles are on the line on Saturday at the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. In the UFC 312 main event, UFC middleweight champion Dricus du Plessis defends against former champion Sean Strickland.
The two top 185-pounders originally faced each other at UFC 297 in January 2024 where du Plessis would defeat Strickland by way of split decision to capture the belt.
In the co-main event slot, UFC women’s strawweight Zhang Weili defends against Tatiana Suarez.
Yesterday at weigh-ins, officials announced that a preliminary flyweight bout between Hyun Sung Park and Nyamjargal Tumendemberel has been canceled due to Tumendemberel experiencing weight management issues.
