Setting the table for an extraordinary rematch between two light heavyweight titans, UFC 320 brings the action when former champion Alex Pereira attempts to win back his throne from divisional nemesis Magomed Ankalaev in the main event. In the UFC 320 co-main event, Merab Dvalishvili tries to defend his strap for the third time this year when he meets bantamweight dark horse Cory Sandhagen.
UFC 320 Main Event
Following a disappointing defeat to Paul Craig back in 2018 in his UFC debut, Ankalaev has remained flawless in the cage, garnering a massive 13-fight unbeaten streak. Preparing to cement his place as the champion by toppling his first challenger in the UFC 320 main event, the Russian phenom is out to prove that his rise to the belt has not been a fluke.
Recording a lackluster performance in his last scrap, Pereira lost out on his title in his first match of 2025, losing a clear decision to the dominant European. Now more hungry and focused than ever to take back what’s his, “Poatan” is readying his bow to take out the man many are calling his kryptonite in UFC 320.
UFC 320 Co-Main Event
Prevailing in his last two excursions to the Octagon, Dvalishvili has seemingly laid claim to being called the greatest 135-lb competitor of all time, notching two championship defenses over Umar Nurmagomedov and Sean O’Malley. With a decisive victory against Sandhagen in UFC 320, “The Machine” could very well secure his position in that regard.
Getting back in the win column this past May, Sandhagen amazingly stopped the durable Deiveson Figueiredo by popping the Brazilian’s knee after a heated Jiu-Jitsu exchange, netting himself a title shot. Vying for the undisputed championship for the first time, “The Sandman” is eager to get a hold of UFC gold after one of the more perilous journeys to the belt.
