UFC President Dana White announced the lineup for UFC 324, scheduled for January 24 in Las Vegas at the T-Mobile Arena. This will be the first numbered UFC event of 2026 and the first to be broadcast on Paramount+ as part of a new agreement. It is also worth noting that the start time for the main card has been moved from 10:00 PM Eastern Time to 9:00 PM.

The main events of the tournament include:

Interim Lightweight Title: Champion Ilia Topuria has temporarily suspended his appearances for personal reasons. Justin Gaethje will face Paddy Pimblett for the interim lightweight title, and the winner will get a chance to meet Topuria upon his return.

Amanda Nunes' Return: Former two-division champion Amanda Nunes will fight Kayla Harrison for the bantamweight title. Dana White described this matchup as "the most significant fight in the history of women's MMA."

Other important bouts: Sean O'Malley will meet Song Yadong, looking to bounce back after two consecutive losses, which could impact his rankings in the bantamweight class.

UFC 324 showcases an innovative approach to UFC broadcasts, featuring both seasoned fighters and rising stars of mixed martial arts.
