UFC 332 Fight Week: Silva Meets Wang for Vacant Flyweight Title

Natalia Silva and Wang Cong headline a Utah card built around a vacant belt, with Ribovics-Green on the main card, and Payton Talbott booked against former flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo.

UFC heads back to Utah this Saturday, October three, for UFC three thirty two, which is scheduled for October third, two thousand twenty six. The promotion is leaning on a title fight that nobody saw coming a few months ago. Natalia Silva will meet Wang Cong for the women's flyweight title that Valentina Shevchenko vacated earlier this year after an injury.

6 percent lean to win. Wang is the betting underdog at +171 and our model has her at 50.4 percent, but she brings credentials of her own. She is ranked eighth at flyweight and is coming off a unanimous decision win over Tracy Cortez back in July. On Elo, Silva rates 1616 across seven bouts to Wang's 1577 across six, a gap that matches the odds but is not the kind of gulf that screams mismatch.

The rest of the main card has real juice even if the headliner is a modest draw for a pay per view slot. Esteban Ribovics takes on King Green, and he has been unconventional in his camp preparation. He is favored at -230 with our model giving him a sixty three percent lean, backed by an Elo of 1536 over eight fights and a recent TKO of Edson Barboza. Payton Talbott faces former flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo after saying he reinvented himself during a long layoff.

Damian Pinas also features after a first round knockout finish of Cesar Almeida in July, and he says opponents and fans are finally giving him credit, telling reporters, "they were counting me out."
