UFC 297: Strickland vs. Du Plessis

Toronto hosted the UFC’s first PPV of 2024 with two title fights and a Canadian homecoming feel. Middleweight Sean Strickland, fresh off a shocking upset of Israel Adesanya, defended his belt against number-one contender Dricus Du Plessis, while the co-main crowned a new women’s bantamweight champion as Raquel Pennington and Mayra Bueno Silva battled for the title vacated by Amanda Nunes. Frankie Edgar was inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame during the broadcast.
