UFC 312 is light on value, especially compared to UFC 311, but the co-main event is solid. UFC women's strawweight champion Zhang Weili makes the third defense of her second title reign against Tatiana Suarez. "The Ultimate Fighter 23" winner Suarez was labeled a future champion out of the gate, but frequent injuries delayed the inevitable.

Two more title fights are on the horizon for UFC 312 as Dricus Du Plessis will put his middleweight belt on the line for a rematch against Sean Strickland in the main event. Plus, we’ll see Zhang Weili test herself against the undefeated wrestler Tatiana Suarez for the strawweight belt.

The middleweight belt is on the line at this weekend's UFC 312 bout which will be headlined by Sean Strickland and Dricus Du Plessis. It is the South African, Du Plessis who currently holds the middleweight title and will face Strickland for the second time.
