UFC’s Paramount+ era begins on Jan. 24. UFC 324 takes over Las Vegas with a headline-grabbing main event: Justin Gaethje vs. Paddy Pimblett for the interim lightweight title. UFC 324 goes down from the T-Mobile Arena as the first numbered event of 2026. Below, we will look at the fight card, date, and fight odds for UFC 324.

During halftime of the Cowboys vs. Chiefs on Thanksgiving garnered widespread attention. UFC President Dana White announced that Justin Gaethje would fight Paddy Pimblett as the two have been campaigning for a lightweight title shot. In the aftermath of 155-pound champion Ilia Topuria announcing he’d step away to deal with personal matters, Gaethje and Pimblett will fight for the interim title.

The rest of the card is loaded with interesting and important matchups within each division. The co-main event sees former bantamweight champion Sean O’Malley look to get back on track, where he’ll take on rising contender Song Yadong.

Plus, powerful heavyweights are set to collide when veteran and fan favorite Derrick Lewis returns to take on rising contender Waldo Cortes-Acosta. Former women’s strawweight champion Rose Namajunas also looks to hold on to her position in the women’s flyweight division when she takes on Natalia Silva.
