UFC 303 Preview: Alex Pereira vs. Jiří Procházka 2, Ortega vs. Lopes

A revamped UFC 303 card headlined by a rematch for the light heavyweight title takes place this Saturday at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, NV.

The main event for UFC 303 was supposed to see Conor McGregor make his return to the cage opposite Michael Chandler, but after “The Notorious” withdrew with a toe injury the UFC quickly booked a short-notice rematch between Light Heavyweight Champion Alex Pereira and Jiří Procházka.Pereira spoiled Procházka’s attempt to reclaim the vacant light heavyweight belt when the pair first met in the main event of UFC 295.

Swanson may only have a handful of fights left now that he's 40 years old, but he did remind fans of how good he still is when he took a unanimous decision over Hakeem Dawodu in his last outing. A matchup with another longtime UFC veteran in Andre Fili is exactly the type of fight Swanson deserves at this point in his career, and the two men could combine to put on one of the more entertaining fights at UFC 303.
