After his knockout loss to Max Holloway at UFC 300 in April 2024, Gaethje (26-5 MMA, 9-5 UFC) showed he’s still capable of winning at the top level when earned a unanimous decision over Fiziev (12-4 MMA, 6-4 UFC) in the rematch lightweight contenders – Gaethje won the first in March 2023 – at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Alex Pereira had one of the most memorable UFC title runs in recent history. It's a shame it's end will be so poorly remembered. Magomed Ankalaev unseated Alex Pereira to win the light heavyweight title at UFC 313. The promotion could book an immediate rematch, but they should move on to other things.

Pereira, a former kickboxing champion, has been a phenom since joining the UFC in 2021. He won middleweight gold in 2022 before moving up to light-heavyweight and adding a second belt in 2023. Then, last year, he recorded three successful title defences with TKOs of Jamahal Hill, Jiri Prochazka and Khalil Rountree Jr.
