MONTREAL, QUEBEC – MAY 08: Jose Aldo of Brazil is seen on stage during the UFC 315 press conference ... More at Bell Centre on May 08, 2025 in Montreal, Quebec. (Photo by Chris Unger/Zuffa LLC) UFC 315’s card is locked in—at least we think. Every fighter weighed in ahead of Saturday’s pay-per-view event from the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. UFC Hall of Famer Jose Aldo had some issues on the scales that forced the promotion to shift his fight with Aiemann Zahabi (originally scheduled for bantamweight) to featherweight. The UFC made the move to push the fight to featherweight when it was clear Aldo couldn’t safely make 136 pounds. Everyone else on the card made weight, and here is the card order for Saturday night. Forbes Jose Aldo Misses Weight At UFC 315 — Fight Saved By Sudden Switch By Brian Mazique UFC 315 Weigh-In Results (Official) Date: May 10, 2025 Location: Bell Centre, Montreal, Quebec, Canada Main Card (ESPN+ PPV, 10 p.m. ET) Welterweight Title Bout: Belal Muhammad (170 lbs) vs. Jack Della Maddalena (170 lbs) Women’s Flyweight Title Bout: Valentina Shevchenko (124 lbs) vs. Manon Fiorot (125 lbs) Featherweight Bout: José Aldo (143 lbs) vs. Aiemann Zahabi (142 lbs) Originally scheduled as a bantamweight bout. Changed to featherweight due to Aldo’s weight cut issues. Women’s Flyweight Bout: Alexa Grasso (126 lbs) vs. Natália Silva (126 lbs) Lightweight Bout: Benoît Saint Denis (156 lbs) vs. Kyle Prepolec (156 lbs) Preliminary Card (ESPN/ESPN+, 8 p.m. ET) Welterweight Bout: Mike Malott (171 lbs) vs. Charles Radtke (171 lbs) Women’s Flyweight Bout: Jessica Andrade (126 lbs) vs. Jasmine Jasudavicius (124 lbs) Light Heavyweight Bout: Modestas Bukauskas (203 lbs) vs. Ion Cuțelaba (205 lbs) Light Heavyweight Bout: Navajo Stirling (205 lbs) vs. Ivan Erslan (205 lbs) Early Preliminary Card (ESPN+, 6:30 p.m. ET) Middleweight Bout: Marc-André Barriault (185 lbs) vs. Bruno Silva (187 lbs) Featherweight Bout: Daniel Santos (146 lbs) vs. Jeong Yeong Lee (146 lbs) Bantamweight Bout: Brad Katona (136 lbs) vs. Bekzat Almakhan (136 lbs) There will be extra attention paid to Aldo-Zahabi now, with the former’s battle with the scales serving as a precursor to the fight. It’s a major opportunity for Zahabi to make a statement in his home country against a legend. MONTREAL, QUEBEC – MAY 09: Navajo Stirling of New Zealand poses on the scale during the UFC 315 ... More ceremonial weigh-in at Bell Centre on May 09, 2025 in Montreal, Quebec. (Photo by Chris Unger/Zuffa LLC) Light heavyweight up-and-comer Navajo Stirling will be looking to win with some style when he opens the mid-level prelims against Ivan Erslan. The undefeated New Zealander is coming off a unanimous decision win over Tuco Tokkos in December 2024. However, the win wasn’t long on action, and some felt Stirling should have won more definitively. We’ll see how he responds. MONTREAL, QUEBEC – MAY 09: Modestas Bukauskas of Lithuania poses on the scale during the UFC 315 ... More ceremonial weigh-in at Bell Centre on May 09, 2025 in Montreal, Quebec. (Photo by Chris Unger/Zuffa LLC) Modestas Bukauskas is looking to take the next step at light heavyweight when he battles the ferocious Ion Cuțelaba. After a recent endorsement from interim heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall, Bukauskas has a chance to secure an eye-opening win over a veteran. The most intriguing prelim is the battle between former strawweight champion Jessica Andrade and rising star Jasmine Jasudavicius. This fight represents the biggest challenge Jasudavicius has faced in her career, and how she fares against Andrade will help determine if the next stop is a top-five opponent in the flyweight division. MONTREAL, QUEBEC – MAY 09: Jasmine Jasudavicius of Canada poses on the scale during the UFC 315 ... More ceremonial weigh-in at Bell Centre on May 09, 2025 in Montreal, Quebec. (Photo by Cooper Neill/Zuffa LLC) There will be two titles on the line. In the co-main event, flyweight queen Valentina Shevchenko will attempt to defeat France’s Manon Fiorot in an interesting stylistic battle. Expect Shevchenko to look to take this fight to the ground early and to dominate there. MONTREAL, QUEBEC – MAY 09: (L-R) Valentina Shevchenko of Kyrgyzstan and Manon Fiorot of France face ... More off during the UFC 315 ceremonial weigh-in at Bell Centre on May 09, 2025 in Montreal, Quebec. (Photo by Cooper Neill/Zuffa LLC) If Fiorot cannot stop the takedowns, this will be a short and/or painful night for the challenger. In the main event, UFC welterweight champion Belal Muhammad takes on Jack Della Maddalena in the former’s first defense of his title. MONTREAL, QUEBEC – MAY 09: (L-R) Belal Muhammad and Jack Della Maddalena of Australia face off ... More during the UFC 315 ceremonial weigh-in at Bell Centre on May 09, 2025 in Montreal, Quebec. (Photo by Cooper Neill/Zuffa LLC) This too could be a stylistic matchup, as JDM would likely prefer to strike, though recent training videos suggest his ground game has grown by leaps and bounds. We will find out on Saturday. Be on the lookout for my results piece highlighting the biggest moments and bonus winners from Montreal.
