Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) took over the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, for UFC 303 mixed martial arts (MMA) event TONIGHT (Sat., June 29, 2024), and streamed LIVE on ESPN+ PPV. UFC 303 was supposed to feature Conor McGregorvs. Michael Chandler in the pay-per-view (PPV) main event. However, McGregor needed to pull out with a pinky toe injury (seriously), leaving Chandler in limbo (who ended up in the front row).
Instead of the return of Ireland’s most notorious sports star, we were instead treated to everyone’s favorite stone-faced assassin, Alex Pereira, suiting up to defend his Light Heavyweight title. In the main event he met Jiri Prochazka, who he defeated via technical knockout back in Nov. 2023 (check it out here). Also on UFC 303’s PPV main card was supposed to be a Featherweight clash between former title challenger, Brian Ortega, and the up-and-coming Diego Lopes. However, Ortega got sick the day of the fight, meaning Dan Ige was brought in as a replacement fighter on four hours’ notice! Also on the main card we had Anthony Smithvs. Roman Dolidze, Mayra Bueno Silvavs. Macy Chiassonand Ian Machado Garryvs. Michael Page.
The “Prelims” had lots of action on offer, too. That section of the event had Cub Swansonvs. Andre Fili, Michelle Waterson-Gomezvs. Gillian Robertson and Andrei Arlovksi vs. Martin Buday. Joe Pyfer vs. Marc-Andre Barriault was the featured late Prelim. You can check out everything that happened on UFC 303’s “Prelims” here.
