Redemption, pressure, and power: Pereira’s chance to reclaim
The night’s main event sees a thrilling rematch as Alex Pereira attempts to reclaim the light heavyweight belt from Magomed Ankalaev. Their previous meeting at UFC 313 ended with Ankalaev’s calculated dominance, but Pereira—known for his devastating precision—will return with renewed focus and pressure to turn the tide.
Adding to the anticipation, former champ Jiri Prochazka is listed as the official backup. If either fighter withdraws, Prochazka may be called in—paving the way for a possible trilogy fight with Pereira, a storyline fans have been craving since their back-to-back encounters in 2023 and 2024.
The long-awaited duel at bantamweight
After years of tension and build-up, Merab Dvalishvili will finally defend his bantamweight belt against Cory Sandhagen. The stylistic contrast couldn’t be more compelling: Merab’s relentless pressure and takedown threat versus Cory’s fluid movement and striking ingenuity.
This co-main event offers more than gold—it’s a battle to define the division’s direction, with both fighters eyeing legacy and long-term supremacy.
Stacked from top to bottom: confirmed bouts shaping the night
The excitement of UFC 320 goes far beyond the top two bouts. Several electrifying matchups have already been confirmed, giving the card true depth and diversity in style and stakes.
- Jiri Prochazka vs. Khalil Rountree Jr. (Light Heavyweight)
- Edmen Shahbazyan vs. André Muniz (Middleweight)
- Macy Chiasson vs. Yana Santos (Women’s Bantamweight)
- Joe Pyfer vs. Abusupiyan Magomedov (Middleweight)
Whether Prochazka fights as a backup or takes on Rountree Jr. as planned, this could serve as a light heavyweight title eliminator. Meanwhile, the middleweight division heats up with Shahbazyan and Muniz both hungry to climb the ranks, while Pyfer continues his campaign as one of the most exciting finishers at 185 lbs.
