Jon Jones – current UFC Heavyweight champion – was supposed to headline UFC 295 with a showdown against former two-time champion Stipe Miocic, but Jones suffered a pectoral injury that will require surgery.
That led to the co-headline fight, Procházka v Pereira, being bumped up to the main event slot as the two men challenge one another for the title left vacant by Jamahal Hill, who has ruptured his Achilles tendon.
If that's not enough drama for you, Sergei Pavlovich and Tom Aspinall will also step into the octagon on the fight card, as they face off for the interim UFC Heavyweight Championship belt.
The World's Most Famous Arena is the perfect setting for an epic championship doubleheader as UFC celebrates its 30th anniversary in Madison Square Garden.

UFC 295 at Madison Square Garden will be headlined by Jiri Prochazka and Alex Pereira. Prochazka vs Pereira will fight for 205-pound championship crown.
Jiri Prochazka retains his undisputed status as the light heavyweight champion, having never been defeated in a title match. However, a shoulder injury compelled him to vacate the title.
Former middleweight champion Alex Pereira has undergone a successful transition to the 205-pound class, marked by his triumph over former champion Jan Blachowicz. Now, Pereira aims to etch his name in history by potentially becoming the 10th man ever to hold two UFC belts.

The main event features a pair of fighters who were both fast-tracked by the promotion based on their resumes and potential, and both have delivered on the faith the UFC brass trusted in them.
Pereira (8-2) was targeted by the UFC specifically as a potential challenger to former middleweight champion Adesanya, who at the time had cleaned out the division and needed a capable opponent.
Pereira had twice defeated Adesanya when both were professional kickboxers, and their backstory provided the basis for Pereira getting a title shot in just his fourth UFC fight. Adesanya dominated most of the way, but the challenger connected with a series of punches in the final round to pull off the upset.
Adesanya won by knockout in their April rematch and the hulking Pereira, who had long struggled to make the middleweight limit of 185 pounds, made the move to light heavyweight. The 36-year-old Brazilian fighter was again awarded a title shot in short order after defeating former champion Jan Blachowicz in his light heavyweight debut in July.
Prochazka (29-3-1), 31, was a much more known commodity in MMA circles before joining the UFC. The eclectic Czech fighter was already a champion in the Rizin and Gladiator Fighting Championship who had captured the attention of MMA observers.
