A title fight and a possible title eliminator headline the UFC 331 fight card. The UFC recently announced the full 13-fight bout list for the fight promotion’s return to Crypto.com Arena on Saturday, September 19.
In the UFC 331 main event, current flyweight champion Joshua Van puts his title on the line against the man he defeated for that crown, Alexandre Pantoja. Meanwhile, in the co-main event, Arman Tsarukyan meets Mauricio Ruffy in what could be a lightweight title eliminator, with the victor moving on to face champion Justin Gaethje.

UFC 331 Main Event: Joshua Van vs. Alexandre Pantoja 2
Van (17-2) and Pantoja (30-6) faced off at UFC 323 in December. The bout lasted just 26 seconds, as an injury to Pantoja’s left arm as he fell to the mat left him unable to continue. The TKO loss ended Pantoja’s title run after four successful defenses. He initially won the UFC’s 125-pound crown in July 2023 with a split-decision win over Brandon Moreno. Pantoja’s title defense wins came against Brandon Royval (decision), Kai Asakura (submission), and Kai Kara-France (submission).
Van is coming off a May title defense win over Tatsuro Taira. That fight ended via TKO in the fifth round.
UFC 331 Co-Main Event: Arman Tsarukyan vs. Maurício Ruffy
The co-main event of UFC 331 is scheduled for five rounds, which should give fight fans some indication that the promotion is treating the matchup between Tsarukyan (23-3) and Ruffy (14-2) as something special.
Tsarukyan was scheduled to face Islam Makhachev in a title fight at UFC 311 at Crypto.com Arena, but was forced from that event on weigh-in day. Tsarukyan has fought once since then, beating Dan Hooker via submission in November.
Ruffy is coming off a June TKO victory over Michael Chandler at the White House in June.
