The UFC 307 Countdown video features the two title fights at the top of the anticipated fight card next Saturday night at Delta Center in Salt Lake City.
In the main event, UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira defends against Khalil Rountree, a challenger on a five-fight win streak that has a knack for beating high-level kickboxers. “Poatan” has emerged as one of the faces of the UFC and a successful title defense could vault him towards another marquee matchup.
UFC 307 also sees Raquel Pennington go for her first bantamweight title defense after claiming the belt with a win over Mayra Bueno Silva this past January. “Rocky” has won six straight fights, but has a tough test ahead of her as she faces former champion Julianna Peña.
Peña has not competed since losing to Amanda Nunes in their rematch in July 2022, but as the only woman to defeat “The Lioness” during Nunes’ legendary run from 2015 to 2023, she’s poised to shake the apple cart again.
