UFC 331 takes place on September 19th at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, headlined by a flyweight title rematch between champion Joshua Van and Alexandre Pantoja (27-6).
Pantoja lost the belt to Van last December after suffering an injury in the first round. He gets his shot at reclaiming it in the main event.
In the co-main event, Arman Tsarukyan (22-3) makes his long-awaited return against surging lightweight Mauricio Ruffy (14-2), with a title shot against UFC lightweight champion Justin Gaethje likely on the line for the winner.
Patricio Pitbull, who has gone 1-2 since crossing over from Bellator, faces Doo Ho Choi on the main card. Choi enters on a three-fight winning streak. Brian Ortega and Renato Moicano finally get their rescheduled fight after Ortega pulled out of their previous booking earlier this year. Alonzo Menifield opens the main card against Iwo Baraniewski at light heavyweight.
