Editor’s note: UFC’s top fight card was to have included Conor McGregor vs. Michael Chandler and Jamahal Hill vs. Carlos Ulberg, but both McGregor and Hill have withdrawn from the competition due to injuries. The following is updated fight card information.
This week’s UFC 303 fight card promises plenty of fireworks as light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira takes on former champion Jiří Procházka. In addition, No. 4-ranked featherweight Brian Ortega will square off against Diego Lopes, while light heavyweight Carlos Ulberg, who was slated to face off against Jamahal Hill (who withdrew due to injuries), will instead face Anthony Smith on the main card.
