The card of the 282nd UFC tournament has undergone major changes. Firstly, Jiri Prochazka suffered a serious injury, due to which he was out for a year. Therefore, the Czech decided to vacate the light heavyweight championship belt. Secondly, Glover Teixeira, who was supposed to fight Prochazka, refused to fight another challenger.
Thirdly, the fight between Magomed Ankalaev and Jan Blachowicz will head the tournament, and the belt of the UFC light heavyweight champion will be at stake.
Recall that UFC 282 will be held on December 10 in Las Vegas at the T-Mobile Arena.
