Oliveira Defends BMF Title vs Lopes at UFC 335
Charles Oliveira will defend his BMF title against Diego Lopes in the main event of UFC 335 on December 12 in Las Vegas.
The promotion announced the fight during Saturday’s UFC 332 broadcast. The event takes place at T-Mobile Arena.
Oliveira, 36, claimed the BMF crown in March at UFC 326 with a unanimous decision over Max Holloway. He has a record of 37 wins and 11 losses.
Lopes, 31, moves up to lightweight for the fight. He is coming off a second-round knockout of Steve Garcia in June, bouncing back from a loss to Alexander Volkanovski.
The co-main event is a five-round heavyweight clash between Alex Pereira and Sergei Pavlovich.
Pereira, a former two-division champion, seeks his first heavyweight win after losing to Ciryl Gane in June. Pavlovich has won three straight, including a 39-second knockout of Tallison Teixeira in May.
The card also features Joe Pyfer vs Bo Nickal and Brandon Moreno vs Charles Johnson.
UFC 335 is the promotion’s final numbered card of 2026, and officials are positioning it as a stacked year-ender.
