Alex Pereira will put his UFC light heavyweight title on the line for the third-straight time when he meets Khalil Rountree Jr. tomorrow evening (Sat., Oct. 5, 2024) at UFC 307 live on ESPN+ pay-per-view (PPV) from inside Delta Center in Salt Lake City, Utah, but first “Poatan” got one final look at “The War Horse” on Friday,
This weekend’s UFC 307 PPV event in Salt Lake City may lack top-of-the-line star power, but it’s still turning out to be one of the most stacked cards of the year. Pereira will lead the charge once again, but UFC 307’s undercard will feature the likes of Jose Aldo, Kayla Harrison, Kevin Holland, and Stephen Thompson. Not to mention a co-headliner pitting UFC women’s bantamweight champion Raquel Pennington against a returning Julianna Pena.
On Friday, the promotion hosted UFC 307’s ceremonial weigh ins from Salt Lake City. After touching the scale on stage all fighters met face-to-face for one final staredown. It was the last chance for some of the bigger names to make a lasting impression heading into Saturday.
