UFC 295: Jiri Prochazka vs. Alex Pereira fight card, start time, channel guide, betting odds

UFC 295 took a huge hit when UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones suffered a serious injury just weeks before the fight and was forced to withdraw. With Jones out, the UFC scrambled and made a heavyweight fight between No. 2 ranked Sergei Pavlovich (who was already the backup) and No. 3 ranked Tom Aspinall for the interim championship. That fight moved down to the co-main slot and another took over top billing.

The new main event, previously scheduled for the co-main, is a light heavyweight title fight between former champion Jiri Prochazka and former middleweight champion Alex Pereira.

At press time, the rest of the card remains in-tact.
