UFC 317 Bonus Report: Joshua Van and Brandon Royval earn FOTN honors
Chris Taylor - June 28, 2025
The Octagon returned to T-Mobile Arena for tonight’s UFC 317 event, and four fighters wound up taking home performance bonuses. The highly anticipated main event between Ilia Topuria and Charles Oliveira for the promotion’s vacant lightweight title proved to be a coming out party for Ilia Topuria. The former featherweight champion took no time getting to work against Charles Oliveira. After busting open ‘Do Bronx’ with some early combinations, ‘El Matador’ promptly put Oliveira to sleep with a beautiful 1-2 combination. Topuria followed up with some hammer fists that were definitely not needed, but it was one of the most impressive performances in recent memory. Following the win, Ilia called out his longtime rival Paddy Pimblett.
