It seems like it took forever, but we finally have an official main event for UFC 300. There wasn’t a big video package or surprise announcement during the UFC 298 pay-per-view event or anything like that, but minutes after the main event, UFC CEO Dana White announced the light heavyweight title will be on the line in the main event of the upcoming milestone event when Alex Pereira takes on Jamahal Hill . The announcement of the matchup drew plenty of criticism online. Some were fantasy booking the whole time, holding out hope for the inclusion of one of the sport’s biggest stars like Conor McGregor or a surprise return of Ronda Rousey or Khabib Nurmagomedov . While we didn’t get any of those things, we do have a former champion in Hill returning from injury and attempting to reclaim the title he vacated due to an Achilles injury against an exciting, dangerous champion in Pereira.
