UFC 320: Magomed Ankalaev vs. Alex Pereira: Fight card, date, start time, streaming, how to watch, venue, and more

The opening weekend of October is set to kick off in style, as UFC 320 delivers a stacked card featuring title fights and consequential, potential No. 1 contender matchups.

This time, the organization returns to familiar territory, with the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas serving as the host.

The main event offers a highly anticipated title fight rematch between Magomed Ankalaev and Alex Pereira. Back in March, the Russian dethroned 'Poatan' as the light-heavyweight kingpin, halting the Brazilian's streak of three title defences.

In the co-main spot, bantamweight champion Merab Dvalishvili will take on the No.4-ranked Cory Sandhagen as he attempts to secure his third title defense. For 'Sandman', the bout marks his first crack at an undisputed UFC gold.
