Overview
- UFC 332, which takes place on Saturday, Oct. 3 at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City, will stream on Paramount+ with the full main card simulcast on CBS.
- Valentina Shevchenko vacated the women’s flyweight title after withdrawing with ligament injuries, and the UFC booked Natalia Silva and Wang Cong to fight for the vacant championship.
- Betting markets list Silva as the favorite to win the title while Payton Talbott is a heavy favorite over former champion Deiveson Figueiredo in the co-main event.
- Some commentators and fighters have publicly criticized the headliner as a thin choice for a numbered event, though Roberto Soldic’s UFC debut and other matchups are promoted as major draws.
- The outcome will shape the 125-pound pecking order if Shevchenko’s recovery keeps her sidelined and it reflects the promotion’s broader scheduling and broadcast strategy that reduces reliance on pay‑per‑view buy-and-stack incentives.
