The co-main event will finally crown a champion in the UFC women's bantamweight division since Amanda Nunes' retirement back in June 2023. The two women tasked with competing for the vacant title are Raquel Pennington and Mayra Bueno Silva.
Thus, UFC 297 will feature two championship bouts. However, it also features some exciting non-title bouts. Neil Magny will test the streaking Canadian native, Mike Malott, in the latter's fourth promotional bout.
Featherweight contenders Arnold Allen and the undefeated Movsar Evloev will lock horns in a bout that has immense implications for the top of the division. A middleweight contest between Chris Curtis and Marc-André Barriault will also feature on the main card.
