UFC 315 is poised to captivate fight fans this Saturday as it takes over the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. This action-packed card marks the promotion’s fifth pay-per-view event of the year and a long-awaited return to the 'City of Mary,' nearly a decade after UFC 186 took place there in April 2015.
The upcoming PPV event will be topped by a championship double-header. In the main event, reigning welterweight champion Belal Muhammad defends his title against Jack Della Maddalena. In the co-main slot, flyweight queen Valentina Shevchenko takes on the surging Manon Fiorot.
