Are there any belts on the line at UFC 314?

Alexander Volkanovski and Diego Lopes will fight for the featherweight belt at UFC 314 after Ilia Topuria vacated the title to move up to lightweight.

Australian Volkanovski was previously UFC featherweight champion for five years between 2019 and 2024 before relinquishing his belt to Georgian Topuria at UFC 299.

Topuria's decision to step up to lightweight offers Volkanovski the opportunity to become a two-time UFC champion against number three-ranked featherweight Lopes, with the Brazilian handed his first title shot.
