Alex Pereira is of course the reigning UFC Light-Heavyweight Champion, having made three successful defences since winning the belt back in 2023. Now he aims to defend his 205-pound crown against the #1 contender in Magomed Ankalaev.

Justin Gaethje vs Rafael Fiziev Rematch Features In UFC 313 Co-Main Event 114r3s

Although Alex Pereira vs Magomed Ankalaev is headlining UFC 313 for the UFC Light-Heavyweight Title, the co-main event is a quite remarkable fight too in itself. Justin Gaethje faces former for Rafael Fiziev for the second time, with Fiziev stepping in on late notice to replace the injured Dan Hooker.

First time around it was ‘The Highlight’ who got his hand raised, beating Fiziev via decision at UFC 286 back in march 2023. He is once again expected to win this weekend, with the best UFC betting sites in the UK making him a fairly overriding favourite.

This is a cracking fight in the co-main event at UFC 313, and is arguably a main event in itself on another UFC Fight Night show. Several other big names feature on the UFC 313 card, including the likes of Curtis Blaydes, Jalin Turner, Bobby Green, Amanda Lemos and Joshua Van to name but a few.
