Silva and Wang set for vacant title fight at UFC 332

UFC 332 is scheduled for October 3 at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City, with Natalia Silva and Wang Cong set to fight for the vacant women’s flyweight championship in the main event. The event’s five-bout main card is scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. ET, with listings naming Paramount as a broadcaster; one preview also listed CBS, and the supplied information does not clarify the distribution arrangement. The title became vacant after Valentina Shevchenko stepped aside because of an injury, according to event previews. Silva, of Brazil, and Wang, of China, are scheduled to compete for the belt. The supplied reports describe the matchup as a title fight but do not establish its result. The co-main event is a bantamweight bout between former flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo and Payton Talbott. The rest of the scheduled main card includes lightweight fighters King Green and Esteban Ribovics, Roberto Soldic’s UFC debut against Khaos Williams at welterweight, and a middleweight matchup between Ateba Gautier and Roman Kopylov. The listings also include several bouts beyond the five-fight main card.
