UFC 295: Preliminary Fights to Watch

UFC 295, set for Saturday at Madison Square Garden in New York City, is bringing two title fights to the Big Apple.

Former light heavyweight champion Jiri Prochazka, who vacated after a gnarly shoulder injury, will fight former middleweight champion Alex Pereira in a vacant title fight. The two stone-cold warriors are all business, and an exciting fight filled with fireworks is all but promised. Jamahal Hill vacated the title after he suffered an Achilles injury, similar to Prochazka vacating after his own injury.

Heavyweights Sergei Pavlovich and Tom Aspinall will precede that fight for the interim heavyweight title, as champion Jon Jones suffered a pectoral injury.
