One of the biggest UFC events in years has rolled around, as UFC 300 plays out in Las Vegas this weekend.
The card is stacked from top to bottom, with ex-champions Cody Garbrandt and Deiveson Figueiredo kickstarting proceedings, before Alex Pereira defends the light-heavyweight title against predecessor Jamahal Hill in the main event.
In the co-main event, Chinese stars Zhang Weili and Yan Xiaonan will vie for the strawweight title, held by Zhang, after Justin Gaethje defends the ‘Baddest Motherf*****’ belt against featherweight icon Max Holloway.
There are more former champions in action, too, as Charles Oliveira, Aljamain Sterling, Jiri Prochazka and Holly Holm feature.
