UFC 307 Fight Card

The departure of Mosvar Evloev and Aljamain Sterling from the fight card has made space for UFC legend Jose Aldo on the main card.

Who Is the Favorite in UFC 307?
Alex Pereira is the favorite to win at UFC 307, who’s won four straight fights. Pereira is the reigning UFC Light Heavyweight champion of the world and has -500 UFC 307 odds attached to his victory. Khalil Rountree Jr. is his division’s #8 ranked fighter and is a massive underdog based on the UFC 307 odds. Rountree has won five fights in a row, four by knockout, but he has yet to beat anyone currently ranked inside the top 10 of his division. Considering Rountree Jr. hasn’t fought yet in 2024, it’s no surprise to see Alex Pereira as the clear favorite on the UFC 307 odds.
Alex Pereira: Recent Performances and Form
Alex Pereira burst onto the UFC scene in November 2021, and just three years later, he is the biggest name in the sport. Three straight wins vaulted him to a title shot, where he became the first man to beat Israel Adesanya at Middleweight in the UFC. After Adesanya got his revenge in April 2023, Pereira won four fights in a row in just 11 months, three of which were for the Light Heavyweight title. He most recently beat Jiri Prochazka by knockout at UFC 303 and will be beyond confident he can add Rountree Jr. to his growing resume of wins.
Pereira is so effective, thanks to the power in his right hand. Five of his last six UFC victories have come by knockout, as his power and accuracy are rarely seen in the Light Heavyweight division. His takedown defense is solid, and his ability to land powerful hooks without a big windup is why he is the reigning title holder.
Khalil Rountree Jr.: Recent Performances and Form
Khalil Rountree Jr. has been given a title shot for the sole reason of being an entertaining fighter. After some lackluster pay-per-views from the UFC, CEO Dana White had no choice but to guarantee an entertaining card with Rountree Jr. The Los Angeles native has won five straight fights but has yet to beat anyone currently ranked inside the top 10 of the Light Heavyweight division.
What he does have going for him is his entertainment value. The UFC is an entertainment business that needs its top fights for exciting results. Rountree Jr. will not go for the takedown; he will stand and trade with Alex Pereira until one of the two is left flat on the canvas.
Wherever this fight takes place, it’s difficult to imagine a path to victory for Rountree Jr. He lacks the accuracy with his power punches to consistently trouble Pereira and hasn’t shown superior ability on the ground over his Brazilian opponent. Rountree Jr. can always swing for the fences and hope to land something clean, but when he exposes his defense, Pereira won’t need a second invitation to finish the fight.
