UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira headlines tonight's UFC 300 event with his first title defence against America's Jamahal Hill.
Pereira claimed the title at UFC 295 with a second-round stoppage win over Jiri Prochazka and became the ninth fighter to win a UFC title in multiple weight divisions.
Hill on the other hand has not fought since January 2023 when he too won the UFC light heavyweight belt after beating Glover Teixeira at UFC 283. However, an Achilles tendon injury sidelined the American who was forced to vacate the belt, and now he will be looking to reclaim UFC gold.
