What title is up for grabs in the main event of UFC 314?<\/strong> How has Alexander Volkanovski’s career trajectory influenced perceptions of his upcoming fight?<\/strong> What factors contribute to Diego Lopes\u2019 potential to challenge Volkanovski?<\/strong> Who are the key fighters featured in the co-main event of the night?<\/strong> What is the schedule for UFC 314 and how can fans view it?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The vacant featherweight title will be on the line in the main event of UFC 314 this weekend, as Alexander Volkanovski takes on Diego Lopes in Miami. Volkanovski is aiming to become a two-time champion, having not fought since he lost the belt last February, when he fell to a knockout defeat by Ilia Topuria. But with Topuria relinquishing the gold this February, as he prepares to move up to lightweight, a new champion is needed at 145lb. With that, former long-reigning king Volkanovski will face Lopes. Lopes, 30, enters Miami on a five-fight win streak, and the key question is whether the Mexican-Brazilian\u2019s brawling style can test Volkanovski\u2019s chin, which some fans feel has weakened courtesy of KOs by Topuria and Makhachev. Volkanovski is no doubt the tidier fighter, however, and that skillset saw the Australian, 36, record five successful title defenses between 2020 and 2023. In fact, prior to a pair of lightweight losses to Makhachev, he was unbeaten for 10 years. Also on Saturday, in the co-main event, brash Liverpudlian lightweight Paddy Pimblett takes on Michael Chandler, in \u201cPaddy The Baddy\u201d\u2019s biggest test yet. Here\u2019s all you need to know. <\/p>\n
