The Ultimate Fighting Championship returns this weekend with UFC 303 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. 

The event has undergone plenty of changes, most notably Conor McGregor's withdrawal from his fight with Michael Chandler, but a title fight now headlines the card. 

In the main event, Alex Pereira defends his title against Jiri Prochazka. 

Pereira and Prochazka previously fought at UFC 295 on November 11, 2023, with Pereira earning a second-round TKO win to claim the vacant light heavyweight title.
