Flyweight Champ Van Blasts UFC Over Title Defense Delay

UFC Flyweight Champion Джошуа Ван has expressed frustration on social media about the delay in scheduling his first title defense. The 24-year-old champion won his belt at UFC 323 when opponent Александре Пантожа suffered an arm injury just 26 seconds into their bout. Van, who has maintained an active schedule with 10 Octagon appearances since joining the UFC in 2023, is eager to stay busy while the promotion potentially waits for Pantoja to recover. If the UFC doesn't wait for Pantoja's return, #2-ranked Манел Капе appears to be the frontrunner for the next flyweight title shot after his recent win streak.
