UFC 328 Chimaev vs Strickland PPV Pay Per View 5/9/26 is live this weekend (Sat., May 9, 2026) at Prudential Center in Newark, NJ., streaming live online via Paramount+. Just like the last PLE (premium live event, it’s what we’re calling these nowadays), this one is a stacked event. And we’ve got two title fights up top this time.
The main event is Khamzat Chimaev vs. Sean Strickland for the UFC Middleweight title. Chimaev is staking his undefeated record against Strickland, who is looking to become a two time champ. There’s been plenty of chatter and seeming bad blood in this match-up. A lot of it sounds like wolf tickets to me, though. The co-main event is Joshua Van vs. Tatsuro Taira for the UFC Flyweight title. Van needs to win this to prove his legitimacy as a champ. He’s got his hands full with the grappling wizard Taira, though. There’s some great match-ups to round out the UFC 328 main card with Alexander Volkov vs. Waldo Cortes-Acosta, Sean Brady vs. Joaquin Buckley and King Green vs. Jeremy Stephens. The “Prelims” are pretty good this weekend, too. We’ve got Ateba Gautier vs. Ozzy Diaz, Joel Alvarez vs. Yaroslav Amosov and Grant Dawson vs. Mateusz Rebecki. There’s also an appearance from Jim Miller. He fights Jared Gordon.
Chimaev won the belt in his last fight. His win over Dricus Du Plessis, by decision, might have been one of the most one-sided decisions in UFC history (certainly when it comes to title fights and most definitely when it comes to challengers defeating champions). Before Borz played concrete blanket with DDP, he beat Robert Whittaker by, literally, breaking his face. Chimaev is 15-0 and 9-0 in UFC with wins over Kamaru Usman, Kevin Holland and Gilbert Burns. Strickland was masterful last time out. He picked Anthony Hernandez apart before finishing him with a massive knee to the body. That win came after his ho-hum unanimous decision loss to Du Plessis a year prior. That was his second loss to Du Plessis. The first cost him the title he inexplicably won from Israel Adesanya back in 2023. This is a tough fight for me because I’ve doubted, and been proved wrong, by both these fighters. I thought Chimaev would have a tough time with Whittaker — then Chimaev ran through him. I thought Hernandez would destroy Strickland — then Strickland put down one of the most impressive, from a strategic and technical standpoint, performances we’ve ever seen.
Van ‘won’ the UFC title in December. That’s after Alexandre Pantoja’s arm snapped during an innocuous takedown attempt. The situation around the win didn’t stop Van and his team parading around the cage like they’d knocked Pantoja out in 16 seconds, though. Van did rightfully earn his chance to fight Pantoja, after a six fight winning streak that included beatdowns of Brandon Royval and Bruno Silva. He’s 16-2 as a pro with his only losses being a shock uppercut KO to the mercurial Charles Johnson and a submission loss to the veteran Damon Jackson back when he was just a babe. Taira earned his shot at Van by dismantling Brandon Moreno in December. He’s the first man to ever finish Moreno with strikes . Before that he beat short notice opponent Hyun Sung Park with a face crank. Before those sensational victories, Taira lost a close and very exciting fight with Royval (by split decision). The Royval loss was the first loss of the 26 year-old’s career.
Cortes-Acosta was on a mission to make Heavyweight fun again last year. Previously, Salsa Boy had a reputation for being a boring fighter. But in 2025 he fought five times, finishing Ryan Spann, Ante Delija and Shamil Gaziev . His only loss was to Sergei Pavlovich, where he showed off that he might have the hardest chin in the promotion. In January he beat the brakes off Derrick Lewis . He was the victim of an absolute robbery in December, 2024 at UFC 310. He fought a super smart fight against Ciryl Gane and everyone thought he had earned one of the best decision wins of his career. Two of the three judges didn’t see it that way, though. After that, Gane got his fight with Tom Aspinall and was subsequently booked to fight Alex Pereira at the White House. After the robbery Volkov was booked against Jailton Almeida. He took the decision over Almeida (thanks to a little cosmic karma). It’s kind of tough to bet against Cortes-Acosta with this run he’s been on. However, I think I’m going to do that.
Cortes-Acosta has had a great run, I think partly because he’s been facing a lot of guys who are happy swinging for the fences and leaving their chins out in the open. That’s about 85 percent of the Heavyweight division. Volkov doesn’t live there, though. Volkov has learned that this isn’t the right way to fight. And he’s gotten smarter over the last few years. His win over Pavlovich in 2024, which set up his Gane fight, was especially notable for this reason. He peppered Pavlovich with his jab for 15 minutes straight and broke the man down, without ever letting him get within range for his destructive big looping shots. Cortes-Acosta throws like Pavlovich does, so I think we could see Volkov run that jab out again and keep this fight at the distance he wants. Cortes-Acosta’s options to get around that are to hurry forwards throwing or trying to turn this into a dirty boxing match against the cage. I like Volkov’s chances of surviving those measures, though. He’s a great clinch fighter, too. And he’s not bad on the ground, either. He was able to sweep Almeida down there.
