The Brazilian now looks to make a first successful defense of his title against a man who never lost the belt in competition.

Jamahal Hill (12-1-1NC)

Jamahal Hill captured the vacant light heavyweight title by outpointing Glover Teixeira at the start of last year. 'Sweet Dreams' registered his fourth consecutive win with the championship-winning performance. But Hill later relinquished the title after rupturing his achilles tendon, leaving him to watch from the sidelines, Pereira's rise to the pinnacle of the division.

Zhang Weili (24-3)

Zhang Weili reclaimed the strawweight title with a second-round submission win over Carla Esparza in November 2022. 'Magnum' earned the first successful defense of her second reign with a unanimous decision win over Amanda Lemos at UFC 292 in Boston last summer.

Yan Xiaonan (18-3-1NC)

Justin Gaethje (25-4)

Justin Gaethje won the BMF title with a stunning head-kick knockout of Dustin Poirier at UFC 291 last time out in July. 'The Highlight' picked up his second straight win with that performance.

Max Holloway (25-7)

Former UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway is moving up to 155 pounds for the second time in his UFC career. In his latest outing in August, 'Blessed' scored an emphatic knockout win over Chan Sung Jung before besting Arnold Allen for a unanimous decision victory in April.

Charles Oliveira (34-9-1NC)

After a stunning first-round TKO of Beneil Dariush at UFC 289, Charles Oliveira was set to take on Islam Makhachev in a title rematch last October. However, a gruesome cut suffered in training camp forced him out of the bout.

Arman Tsarukyan (21-3)

Arman Tsarukyan has gone 8-1 under the UFC banner since his competitive decision loss to current lightweight champ Islam Makhachev in his promotional debut.

'Ahalkalakets' most recently dispatched Beneil Dariush via first-round TKO in December to extend his win streak to three fights. Tsarukyan will look to earn his crack at the title with another statement performance on Saturday at UFC 300.

Bo Nickal (5-0)

Undefeated wrestling prodigy Bo Nickal has finished all of his career wins in the first round, with two of those victories coming under the promotional banner. In his sophomore UFC appearance, the Pennsylvanian dispatched Valentine Woodburn via TKO at UFC 290.

Cody Brundage (10-5)

Cody Brundage is on a two-fight win streak, although the first victory came after his opponent was disqualified for landing an illegal elbow. The Michigan native most recently knocked out Zachary Reese in December.
