My Top 5 Moments From UFC 317 Toporia Vs Olivera.

Intro.

Now that International Fight Week is now becoming a distant memory, the main focus for the Las Vegas outlet is full steam ahead for the rest of the year. Dustin Poirer's retirement Match, and a yet to be confirmed opponent for Tom Aspinall, all spell good signs going into the back end of this year.

5. Legends Are In The House.

Kamaru Usman. Cain Valesquez, and. Chuck Liddell, were all in attendence. I love Kamaru, but I just think that it's great to see Cain living his best life, given everything that his family has gone through over past few years, it's good to see him smiling. It was also great seeing Chuck looking really healthy.

4. Payton Talbot Has A Bright Future.

Payton Talbot, beat. Philipe Lima in what a solid performance from the Bantamweight contender. He was also grounded when he was interviewed by Joe Rogan in the aftermath.

3. Benell Dariush Is Him.

Benell Dariush, beat. Renatto Moicano in a solid performance in the lightweight Division. And he looked good doing it.

2. Joshua Van Is The No1 Contender in the Flyweight Division.

This was the fight of the night. Van got the win, and then came face to face with Alexandre Pantoja, after he beat Kai Kara France to retain his Flyweight Championship in the co main event, by submission. Now this is going to be one spicy meatdall of a fight, and I can't wait to see it when it happens.

1. Ilia Toporia Is The Lightweight King.

Ilia Toporia, beat. Charles Olivera by knockout, to become the new UFC Lightweight Champion. He then had a fruity confrontation with Paddy The Baddy Pimblett, that came complete with both men shoving each other, and some good old fashioned f-bombs in the aftermath.
