Then came the highly anticipated main event. The Octagon lights shone brightest on Khamzat Chimaev, who delivered a dominant five-round performance against Dricus Du Plessis. From the opening bell, Chimaev imposed his will with relentless pressure, suffocating grappling, and precise striking. By the end of the fight, the judges had no doubt—Chimaev swept the scorecards clean, claiming a unanimous decision victory and the UFC Middleweight Championship.

The energy in Chicago was electric, with every fight building toward a crescendo that ended in crowning a new champion. UFC 319 will be remembered as a night where stars rose, legends fell, and the middleweight division found a new king in Khamzat Chimaev.
