On Saturday, June 29, the UFC will return to the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, for UFC 303. The pay-per-view main card was changed on short notice due to an injury suffered by Conor McGregor, forcing him out of his highly-anticipated main event matchup against Michael Chandler.

Alex Pereira will defend his light heavyweight title in a main event rematch against Jiri Prochazka. Meanwhile, Brian Ortega and Diego Lopes will battle in the co-main event, joining the following main card fights: Ian Garry vs Michael 'Venom' Page, Mayra Bueno Silva vs Macy Chiasson, and Anthony Smith vs Roman Dolidze.

Who is the betting favorite in the UFC 303 main event between Alex Pereira and Jiri Prochazka?

In November 2023, Alex Pereira and Jiri Prochazka headlined UFC 295 with the vacant light heavyweight title on the line. Prochazka showcased his warrior spirit before Pereira landed a monster left hook in round two, leading to a knockout win.

At UFC 303, Prochazka has an opportunity to avenge the defeat and regain the light heavyweight throne. According to Bovada, Pereira is a slight betting favorite at -140 for Saturday's main event, while the challenger comes in at +115.

Since losing against Pereira, Prochazka bounced back with a gritty second-round TKO win against Aleksandar Rakic at UFC 300. Later that night, 'Poatan headlined the event and knocked out Jamahal Hill in round one for his first title defense. It'll be intriguing to see if Prochazka can end Pereira's legendary run later this week.
