Topuria is coming off back-to-back knockouts of featherweight greats Alexander Volkanovski and Max Holloway. Meanwhile, Oliveira (35-10 MMA, 23-10 UFC) rebounded from his split decision loss to Arman Tsarukyan at UFC 300 with a win over former Bellator champion Michael Chandler at UFC 309.

Ilia Topuria might not be without gold for much longer. Topuria vacated his UFC featherweight championship in February as he prepared for a permanent move to lightweight. His first fight as a full-time lightweight will be for the vacant title when he takes on Charles Oliveira, UFC president Dana White announced on Tuesday.

Topuria, who vacated the featherweight championship in February, is officially scheduled to take on former UFC lightweight champ Charles Oliveira at UFC 317 on June 28 from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Oliveira vs. Topuria will take place for the vacant lightweight title.
