UFC 331 Live Preview: Van vs. Pantoja 2 Fight Card, Date, Start Time and Full Live Stream​

UFC 331: Van vs. Pantoja 2 takes place Saturday, September 19, 2026, at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, California, headlined by a flyweight title rematch between champion Joshua Van and former champion Alexandre Pantoja. The card streams live on Paramount+, with no separate pay-per-view purchase required.

Below is a complete breakdown of the UFC 331 fight card, including the Van vs. Pantoja 2 main event storyline, the Tsarukyan vs. Ruffy lightweight co-main event, Patrício "Pitbull" Freire's UFC debut, and the full UFC 331 start time schedule for early prelims, prelims, and the main card.

UFC 331 Main Event: Joshua Van vs. Alexandre Pantoja 2​

The UFC 331 main event settles unfinished business at 125 pounds. Joshua Van and Alexandre Pantoja first met in a flyweight title fight that lasted only 26 seconds and ended on an injury rather than a clean finish. The result made Van the UFC flyweight champion, but it left Pantoja, one of the most accomplished former champions in flyweight history, without the definitive answer he wanted.

Joshua Van's Case for the Belt​

Van enters UFC 331 with a 17-2 record and nine career knockouts, defending the flyweight title for the first time since winning it. A finish here would erase any lingering doubt about his first title win and confirm him as the division's true No. 1.

Alexandre Pantoja's Path Back to Gold​

Pantoja, a 30-6 finisher with ten first-round stoppages, gets an immediate rematch and a chance to reclaim the belt he lost in an incomplete fight. With both fighters carrying an aggressive finishing rate, the UFC 331 main event holds genuine title-fight stakes and real finish potential.

UFC 331 Co-Main Event: Arman Tsarukyan vs. Mauricio Ruffy​

The UFC 331 co-main event is a five-round lightweight matchup between Arman Tsarukyan, on a five-fight winning streak, and Mauricio Ruffy, coming off a highlight-reel knockout win over Michael Chandler. Tsarukyan's wrestling-heavy control game contrasts sharply with Ruffy's one-punch power, making this lightweight bout one of the most stylistically compelling fights on the UFC 331 card. The winner puts himself firmly into the UFC lightweight title conversation.

Patrício "Pitbull" Freire UFC Debut vs. Choi Doo-ho​

UFC 331 also marks the long-awaited UFC debut of Patrício "Pitbull" Freire, one of the most decorated champions in Bellator history, against featherweight contender Choi Doo-ho. The matchup gives Freire an immediate, high-level test as he transitions into the UFC's featherweight division, and a win would instantly establish him as a factor in the promotion's 145-pound rankings.
