Pre-fight press conferences are common for each pay-per-view event as they build anticipation for what's to come later that weekend. They typically take place with fans in attendance and feature only the main and co-main event fighters along with the main card, but there could be a change for the event.

According to MMA Orbit, the pre-fight press conference will take place on Thursday but will feature the entire card on stage. This is significant as several former champions and fan favorites are competing in the preliminary card, so they will all get the full experience of competing at the historical event.

It will be interesting to see how Dana White manages the UFC 300 pre-fight press conference as all the competitors will get an opportunity to build interest for their respective bouts. However, he will likely want to ensure that it doesn't get out of hand.

How many championship bouts are scheduled for UFC 300?

UFC 300 could very well live up to the hype as there are several fights featuring top contenders and past champions alongside three title fights scheduled for the historic event.

In the main event, reigning light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira will make his first title defense against former champion Jamahal Hill, where he will have an opportunity to avenge his coach Glover Teixeira's previous loss. Meanwhile, strawweight champion Zhang Weili and Yan Xiaonan will square off in the co-main event.
