The UFC has unveiled the full fight card for UFC 331. The September event promises to be extremely exciting, and fans in Poland have received some long-awaited news about one of our fighters.
UFC 331 will take place on September 19 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. For Polish fans, the biggest news is Iwo Baraniewski’s return to the Octagon. The official announcement also confirmed reports that had been circulating in the media for several days—the Polish fighter will face Alonzo Menifield.
Iwo Baraniewski is set to face the biggest challenge of his career so far. His opponent will be Alonzo Menifield, ranked 14th in the light heavyweight division. Bartłomiej Stachura was the first to report this matchup, and it has now been officially confirmed by the UFC.
Interestingly, Baraniewski and Menifield’s names appear prominently in the graphic promoting the event. This may mean that their bout will make it onto the main card of the event, which would be yet another honor for the Polish fighter.
The main event of UFC 331 will be a bout for the flyweight championship belt. Joshua Van, who took over the title following Alexandre Pantoja’s injury, will make his first title defense against the Brazilian.
The second most important bout of the event will be Arman Tsarukyan’s return. According to earlier reports, the Armenian was set to face Charles Oliveira in a rematch, but the Brazilian was ultimately dropped from the organization’s plans. His spot has been taken by Mauricio Ruffy, a spectacular fighter representing Brazil, who is set to get the biggest opportunity of his career so far.
The September gala in Los Angeles is shaping up to be extremely exciting. From a Polish perspective, all eyes will be on Iwo Baraniewski, who will have the chance to secure one of the most valuable victories of his professional career.
