UFC 295 has officially changed its main event following the loss of the heavyweight championship fight between Jon Jones and Stipe Miocic. This marks a significant shift as ex-light heavyweight champion Jiri Prochazka and former middleweight champion Alex Pereira’s title bout has been elevated to the main event. To complement this change, a bout between Tom Aspinall and Sergei Pavlovich for the interim heavyweight title has been added as the new co-main event.
This alteration is the UFC’s way of ensuring that the heavyweight division does not face any delays. Both Aspinall and Pavlovich are ranked in the top four of the UFC’s heavyweight rankings and their bout will determine the interim champion, who will eventually challenge the winner of Jones versus Miocic.
In the midst of these changes, fight fans can still anticipate two captivating title bouts headlining the card at Madison Square Garden in New York, making it an event that fans won’t want to miss.
