UFC 312 live stream: How to watch Du Plessis vs Strickland 2 online

UFC 312A middleweight title rematch has been announced for UFC 312 this weekend, where Dricus Du Plessis will defend the gold against his ousted opponent, Sean Strickland.

ORDER NOW

In January 2024, Du Plessis won the title from Sean Strickland via split decision, winning a brutal fight in Canada. Now the pair are set to face off in Australia, as Strickland seeks to end du Plessis’ historic reign.

Du Plessis’ victory over the controversial American made him South Africa’s first UFC champion, and the result paved the way for former titleholder Israel Adesanya to submit in August. Meanwhile, Sean Strickland returned in June, outpointing Paulo Costa and ordering a rematch with du Plessis.

The rematch follows Saturday’s co-main event, a strawweight title fight between Zhang Weili and Tatiana Suarez. Zhang is two years into her second reign as champion, but many see Suarez as the Chinese star’s toughest opponent yet.
