UFC 295 suffered a major blow after its original main event, Jon Jones vs. Stipe Miocic for Jones' UFC heavyweight title, was cancelled after the defending champion suffered an injury in training.
The card however will still go ahead and instead, it will be the UFC light heavyweight title fight between Jiri Prochazka and Alex Pereira which will top the bill in New York.
There is also a new co-main event with Sergei Pavlovich taking on Britain's Tom Aspinall for the interim UFC heavyweight title with the winner giving themselves a shot at Jones when he is fit to return to the Octagon.
