South African superstar Dricus du Plessis faces Sean Strickland a year on from defeating the Californian to claim the UFC Middleweight Championship at UFC 297.

Du Plessis defended his title against Israel Adesanya at UFC 305 and will place the belt back on the line against Strickland.

Strickland – who toppled Adesanya in 2023 – bounced back from his defeat to Du Plessis against Paulo Costa last summer, but he will set his eyes on the ultimate scalp this weekend.

Elsewhere on the billing, Zhang Weili faces Tatiana Suarez in a Women's Strawweight Championship bout.
