Alex Pereira looks to continue his speed run to UFC legend status on Saturday when he puts his light heavyweight championship on the line against Khalil Rountree Jr. in the main event of UFC 307. The fight is a clash of powerful strikers with a combined 18 knockouts in 24 victories.
After winning the middleweight title in just his fourth UFC fight, Pereira dropped the belt back to Israel Adesanya. After the loss, Pereira moved up to light heavyweight where he has rattled off four wins, three by knockout, all over former world champions, and won the title.
The co-main event is also a title fight as Raquel Pennington will put the women's bantamweight title on the line against former champion Julianna Pena. Pennington capped off a six-fight winning streak by defeating Mayra Bueno Silva to win the vacant title in her most recent outing. Pena is looking to rebound from her title-losing performance against the now-retired Amanda Nunes in her most recent fight.
Rountree enters Saturday riding a five-fight winning streak with four knockout victories. He's the No. 8 ranked light heavyweight but is looking to take advantage of the opportunity he received when the UFC needed an available contender to get Pereira in the Octagon one more time in 2024.
