| In the highly anticipated UFC 295 event, former champions Jiri Procházka and Alex Pereira will face off for the vacant light heavyweight title. The co-main event features a battle between heavyweight contenders Sergei Pavlovich and Tom Aspinall for the interim strap. This clash of heavyweight strikers promises to be an explosive showdown that fight fans won’t want to miss. |
On November 11, the highly anticipated UFC 295 event will take place at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The main event, originally scheduled to feature Jon Jones and Stipe Miocic, has been postponed due to Jones’ pectoral injury. However, fight fans are in for a treat as former light heavyweight champion Jiri Procházka takes on former middleweight champion Alex Pereira for the vacant light heavyweight title.
Traditionally, when champions are sidelined with injuries, interim champions are crowned. In the co-main event of UFC 295, two of the heavyweight division’s most dangerous contenders will battle it out for the interim strap. Russia’s Sergei Pavlovich, known for his devastating knockouts, will face England’s Tom Aspinall, who aims to become the first UFC champion from his country.
Pavlovich, ranked No. 2 in the heavyweight division, has finished his last six opponents, all in the first round. His knockout power and willingness to stand and trade with some of the division’s hardest hitters have made him a force to be reckoned with. With an impressive knockdown rate and strike rate, Pavlovich has proven himself as one of the most devastating strikers in UFC history.
On the other hand, Aspinall, ranked No. 4, has a shorter fight time average than Pavlovich. He may not have the same knockout power, but his striking is efficient and unpredictable. Aspinall’s grappling skills also give him an advantage, as he has never been taken down and has a high submission rate.
When these two heavyweights collide, it will be a clash of styles and skills. Will Pavlovich’s knockout power be enough to overcome Aspinall’s technical striking and grappling? Or will Aspinall’s movement and speed prove to be too much for Pavlovich to handle?
One thing is for sure, the winner of this co-main event will be a serious threat to Jon Jones when he returns from his injury. Don’t miss UFC 295: Procházka vs Pereira, live from Madison Square Garden. Prelims start at 8pm ET/5pm PT, while the main card kicks off live on PPV at 10pm ET/7pm PT.
