Check out SUPER LUTAS' predictions for the highly anticipated UFC 317 ! It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this Saturday (28) is the most important day of the year for the Brazilian MMA fan. Closing International Fight Week, Charles do Bronx and Ilia Topuria headline the card at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas (USA). The two will fight for the vacant lightweight division belt (up to 70,3kg) left by Islam Makhachev when he announced his move up to the welterweight category (up to 77kg).

As if that weren't enough, none other than Alexandre Pantoja attempts his fourth defense of the flyweight division belt (up to 56,7kg) against Kai Kara-France in the co-main event. The Rio de Janeiro native won the title in July 2023 when he defeated Brandon Moreno at UFC 290. Since then, the 'ATT' athlete has defended the throne against Brandon Royval , Steve Erceg , and Kai Asakura.
Brazilians at UFC 317
In addition to the title fights, Brazil will be represented by five other fighters: Renato Moicano faces Beneil Dariush in the lightweight division; Felipe Lima takes on Payton Talbott in the bantamweight division; and on the preliminary card, Gregory Robocop faces Jack Hermansson , Viviane Araújo goes head-to-head with Tracy Cortez , and heavyweight Jhonata Diniz duels with Alvin Hines.

Palpites SUPER FIGHTS scoring system
Predictions will be made by the SUPER LUTAS team . At the end of the 2025 season, whoever obtains the most points will be the team's 'best bettor'. The scoring system will be simple. Whoever correctly predicts the winner gets one point. Whoever correctly predicts how the fight will end earns three points, and if the bettor accurately predicts the positive result (example: knockout in R1, submission in R3, decision by points), the bettor wins five points.
