Hello fight fans! This week has been packed with exciting matchups – many of which are set to take place before the end of the year. Christmas came early, let's dive straight into it.

UFC 300 STARTING TO TAKE SHAPE

UFC’s big March 2024 event is starting to get big names thrown at it. Champion Alexander Volkanovski has set his sights on a rematch with Islam Makhachev, anticipating a different outcome this time. Additionally, there's buzz about retired fighter Paul Felder possibly making a comeback for this historic occasion.

PROCHAZKA VS PEREIRA TO BE CO-MAIN EVENT AT UFC 295

The light heavyweight title will finally be up for grabs in November, alongside the awaited Jones vs Miocic bout. Former champ Jiri Prochazka will face ex-middleweight champ Alex Pereira. Pereira, who’s had two title shots before, is back in the ring after a strong debut in the 205-pound division against Jan Blachowicz.

INSANE UFC 296 CARD CONFIRMED

UFC is ending 2023 with a bang in Las Vegas on Dec. 16 as four major fights have just been confirmed. Champion Leon Edwards will seek a second title defense, this time against the controversial Colby Covington. Recent champ Alexandre Pantoja is set to face Brandon Royval, who's on a 3-win streak. Hours ago, Thompson VS Rakhmonov, and Ferguson VS Paddy Pimblett have also been added.

DILLON DANIS DITCHES COURT HEARING

Dillon Danis missed his hearing regarding the order requested by Nina Agdal. His absence left the judge no choice but to enforce the restraining order, and prohibit Danis and anyone associated with him from sharing explicit images of Nina. Her lawsuit accuses Danis of violating privacy laws by posting a photo from over a decade ago that was obtained through her own Snapchat account.

CANNONIER VS DOLIDZE BOOKED

Top middleweights Jared Cannonier and Roman Dolidze are set to face off on December 2nd at a Fight Night event, likely at UFC APEX in Las Vegas. Cannonier, who was the backup for Adesanya VS Strickland, won his last bout against Marvin Vettori 3 months ago. Dolidze, on the other hand, is looking to bounce back after a loss to Vettori ended his four-fight winning streak.
