UFC 300 Pereira vs Hill

There will be fights for two championship belts among the many current and previous champions on the 300th pay-per-view show of the UFC, which is being celebrated. Champion after champion appears at UFC 300. The 300th pay-per-view card of the Ultimate Fighting Championship features combatants that serve as a reminder to fans of the brutal and frequently bizarre reality of mixed martial arts. Twelve fighters in the 13 bouts on the UFC 300 card have held a UFC title at some point in their careers.

The game will resume as a typical 12-minute, four-quarter affair, with no longer being a target score in the fourth quarter.

Last week, Silver stated, "We're looking at some potential changes in format," on ESPN's "First Take." "Maybe a return to something more traditional in terms of how the teams are presented."

"Much of it involves reassuring our players and teams of the significance of this for the supporters. We don't anticipate playoff-level play. However, we anticipate a close game for our supporters," he continued.
