A stellar main event for this UFC 295 card sees a huge UFC title fight with Jiri Prochazka vs Alex Pereira taking centre stage at Madison Square Garden, New York.

This is a truly compelling 205-pound match-up. Alex Pereira of course stepped up in weight once again following his defeat to Israel Adesanya, in an attempt to become a two-division UFC champion. He has the chance to do just that this weekend, as he aims to add the UFC Light-Heavyweight Title to his mantelpiece.

In Jiri Prochazka you have a man who became UFC champion in just his third fight in the organisation. Not only that, but he is one of the hardest punching fighters in the entire UFC right now. Of his 29 MMA wins, 25 of them have come via knockout. Just one has gone the distance.

On the other side of the octagon, you have Alex Pereira. He comes into this fight off a closely fought win in his 205-pound debut against Jan Blachowicz, and now looks to become a two-weight UFC champion up at light-heavyweight now. The Brazilian is the slight favorite with the best US sportsbooks, presenting some huge value when selecting your UFC 295 bets.

Will Alex Pereira become a two-division UFC champion? Can Jiri Prochazka cement himself as the best 205-pound fighter on the planet and become a two-time UFC champion? Only time will tell!

Jiri Prochazka vs Alex Pereira Betting Pick

Alex Pereira comes into this UFC 295 main event as the ever so slight betting favorite with the best offshore gambling sites. It is clear to see why this is the case, given the fact he is a former UFC champion at middleweight and has wins over the likes of Israel Adesanya and Jan Blachowicz in his career to date.

The main event fight at UFC 295 between Prochazka and Pereira will be a compelling watch for as long as it lasts. Both of these fighters are clinical finishers, with a combined 31 finishes via knockout from their 37 combined wins.

Although he is the slight underdog in the main event at UFC 295, here at SportsLens we are slightly favoring Jiri Prochazka to make a successful return from a lengthy injury and become a two-time UFC champion at light-heavyweight.

This fight is as close to a 50/50 as you are likely to see, and you can certainly make a strong case for both men. However, we feel Prochazka has been more impressive in his career to date, with Pereira losing two fights ago before just about beating an aging Jan Blachowicz last time out.

Although the fight is such a compelling match-up and incredibly tough to call, here at SportsLens we believe the fight will end with Jiri Prochazka getting his hand raised after securing his 30th MMA victory. Not only that, but we can see the fighting pride of Czech Republic securing an emphatic 26th KO victory.
