Dana White announced that the UFC 300 is the biggest event, and it all happens this weekend in Las Vegas. Alex Pereira and Jamahal Hill will square off in a substantial light-heavyweight world title match. However, there’s a packed combat card to accompany it as the UFC commemorates its 300th major event in the world’s fight capital.
Conor McGregor was tipped to participate in the extravaganza, but it’s more likely that the Irishman will make a comeback later in the year.
According to UFC president Dana White on X, the anniversary event, which takes place on Saturday, April 13 at the T-Mobile Arena, will include “the most pound-for-pound fighters on a card ever” and feature 12 current or former UFC champions.
Even if the main event doesn’t have the same celebrity status as a fight like Conor McGregor or Jon Jones, the entire program is full of big names, intriguing bouts, and action.
