"The UFC liked last April's Alexander Volkanovski vs. Diego Lopes so much, they've decided to run it back a second time, with the rematch headlining this Saturday's UFC 325 in Sydney, Australia. Two weeks in a row with numbered UFC events is a rarity, but this 1-2 punch both kicks off the Paramount+ era, and marks the end of the Pay-Per-View format stateside. That means that fans aren't being asked to open their wallets in back-to-back weeks, a much more palatable situation."
"For champ Volkanovski, this is his second straight bout with Lopes, though since their first encounter, Diego Lopes did jump back in the win column with a finish of Jean Silva. Weigh-ins for Sydney, Australia's UFC 325, which finds Alexander Volkanovski looking to defend gold at home, take place Friday. Full results can be found below."
