Lightweight champion Ilia Topuria is set to defend against interim champ Justin Gaethje at Freedom 250 on June 14 in Washington D.C. This follows Gaethje's recent interim title win and #1 ranking ascent after UFC 324. The superfight unifies the lightweight belts amid Topuria's dominant run. It significantly elevates stakes in a stacked division featuring Tsarukyan, Oliveira, and Holloway. Fans anticipate a high-octane striking battle; Topuria's next return date hinges on recovery.[1][2]
