UFC 300 takes place this coming Saturday night, April 13th in Las Vegas with no less than three title fights on the main card, and we’ve got the full stacked fight card for you below.
Main Card
In the main event it’s a light-heavyweight title showdown as newly crowned champion Alex Pereira seeks his first successful title defense against Jamahal Hill, who had to vacate the belt due to an injury last year and now returns in a bid to reclaim it.
The co-main event delivers the first title clash in UFC history to feature two Chinese fighters, with strawweight champion Zhang Weili riding a three-fight winning streak into her battle with Yan Xiaonan, who KO’d Jessica Andrade in her last bout.
The symbolic ‘BMF’ title is also on the line at UFC 300, with the current holder of the belt Justin Gathje set to welcome former featherweight champion Max Holloway back up to lightweight for one of the most anticipated match-ups on the card.
A potential lightweight title elimination fight find former champ Charles Oliveira going up against Arman Tsarukyan, who is 8-2 in the UFC so far and coming in off a 64 second KO victory over Beneil Dariush.
Stand-out wrestler and blue-chip Contender Series prospect Bo Nickal has ran through his first two opponents since joining the UFC to improve his unbeaten MMA record to 5-0 and will now open up the UFC 300 main card against, Cody Brundage, who lands an unlikely spot this high up the stacked line-up after back-to-back wins.
Prelims
There’s serious strength-in-depth on this card as headlining the prelims will be former light-heavyweight champion Jiri Prochazka going up against the No.5 ranked Aleksander Rakic.
Ex-bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling will also be making his featherweight debut against the 8th ranked Calvin Kattar.
Former Olympic Judo gold medalist and two-time PFL tournament champion Kayla Harrison is considered one of the leading stars in female MMA and she’ll now make her UFC debut against former bantamweight champion Holly Holm.
Sodiq Yusuff slipped to No.13 in the featherweight rankings after a loss last time out and now faces Diego Lopes, who lost to Movsar Evloev in his UFC debut, but impressed with how well he performed against his undefeated opponent and has since gone on to register back-to-back first round finishes.
Early Prelims
Even the early prelims are filled with big fights on this card, fronted by a lightweight fight between the No.10 ranked Jalin Turner and No.13 placed Renato Moicano.
Former strawweight champion Jessica Andrade will look to build on a much-needed win last time out when she goes up against Marina Rodriguez, who TKO’d Michelle Waterson in her last fight.
Jim Miller will make history on Saturday night when he becomes the only fighter to have also competed at UFC 100 and UFC 200, and the 40-year-old is also coming in off back-to-back wins to fight Bobby Green, who was KO’d in his last fight, but had won back-to-back fights inside the distance beforehand.
And the UFC will kick off the historic event in style with a clash of former champions as ex-bantamweight kingpin Cody Garbrandt goes up against former flyweight champ Deiveson Figueiredo at 135lbs.
