UFC CEO Dana White announced two title fights for the promotion's return to Montreal on May 10. UFC welterweight champion Belal Muhammad vs. Jack Della Maddalena and women's flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko vs.

Welterweight champion Belal Muhammad will defend his title against Jack Della Maddalena in the UFC 315 main event May 10 at Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, the promotion announced Wednesday. In addition, UFC women’s flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko will face France’s Manon Fiorot in a five-round co-main event.

The UFC is making a triumphant return to Montreal after a decade-long absence, bringing with it a stacked card headlined by two championship bouts.

Weili (26-3 MMA, 10-2 UFC), champion of the UFC women’s strawweight division, is interested in going up a weight class and challenging Shevchenko for her flyweight title.

UFC welterweight champion Belal Muhammad has had to wait patiently for his first title defense, but now he has one booked – at UFC 315 in Montreal, Canada.

Belal Muhammad will defend the welterweight championship against Jack Della Maddalena in the main event, and women's flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko will put her title on the line against Manon Fiorot in the co-main event.
