The UFC 295 fighters came face-to-face with their opponents one more time before they square off in the Octagon.

Jiří Procházka faces Alex Pereira for the vacant UFC light heavyweight title in the main event. Jamahal Hill vacated the UFC belt when he suffered a serious leg injury earlier this year.

Procházka returns after a long hiatus due to injury. He suffered a serious shoulder injury that forced him to vacate the title and take a year off from fighting.

Pereira made the most of his UFC light heavyweight debut earlier this year, defeating Jan Blachowicz at UFC 291. He made the full-time move up to light heavyweight after a loss to Israel Adesanya at UFC 287.

The co-main event features two of the hardest hitters in the UFC today, as Tom Aspinall and Sergei Pavlovich battle for the interim UFC heavyweight title. Jon Jones was supposed to headline at UFC 295 against Stipe Miocic before suffering a torn pectoral muscle.

Aspinall, except for an injury stoppage loss to Curtis Blaydes last year, is unblemished in his promotional tenure. He most recently finished Marcin Tybura in his July comeback fight.

Pavlovich has won six consecutive fights by first-round knockout, most recently finishing Blaydes, Tai Tuivasa, and Derrick Lewis. He enters this weekend with an 18-1 record.

Check out the final UFC 295 main and co-main event faceoffs below at the ceremonial weigh-ins.
