Salahdine Parnasse is finally making his UFC debut, and there’s no warm-up fight waiting for him. The former KSW featherweight and lightweight champion gets Dan Hooker, a ranked veteran who has spent years fighting the best guys in the division. Hooker is coming off two straight losses, but at this stage of his career he’s still one of the toughest tests you can give somebody trying to enter the top 10. Parnasse has the speed, pressure and finishing ability that have given Hooker problems lately, but this is also a major jump from dominating in Europe to facing a proven UFC contender.

Islam Makhachev and Ian Machado Garry are going to be framed as the next chapter of Khabib vs McGregor. Dagestan vs Ireland, the dominant pound-for-pound great against the loud Irish challenger. But this matchup is more interesting than the comparison. From the looks of it, Makhachev should control this fight. He is more proven, more complete, and has spent years making elite fighters look ordinary. But Garry is being overlooked for reasons that have more to do with how people feel about him than what he can actually do. He is bigger, longer, younger, owns wins over former champions, and his only career loss came against Shavkat Rakhmonov. Since then, he has rebounded by beating Carlos Prates and Belal Muhammad.

Magomed Ankalaev is trying to get back into the light heavyweight title picture after losing the belt to Alex Pereira. From the looks of it, this is the kind of fight he should control.

Melquizael Costa is climbing, and UFC Vegas 117 gives him the gatekeeper test that tells us if he is ready for the next tier at featherweight. Arnold Allen may not be a fresh name anymore, but he is still a dangerous veteran with the style and experience to check Costa’s rise. Costa is trying to force his way toward the title conversation, and Allen is trying to defend his rank. 

Best bets, a sleeper fight you don’t want to miss, and full main card picks for: Arnold Allen vs Melquizael Costa, Dooho Choi vs Daniel Santos, Malcolm Wellmaker vs Juan Diaz, Modestas Bukauskas vs Christian Edwards, Timmy Cuamba vs Benardo Sopaj plus the recap of UFC 328: Chimaev vs Strickland.

Khamzat Chimaev switches from being the boogeyman of the middleweight division to carrying the pressure that comes with the crown. Former Middleweight champ Sean Strickland is trying to prove he can shut down the wrestling, win back the title, and show he never should have lost the belt in the first place.

Jiří Procházka vs Carlos Ulberg is the main event for UFC 327 and the vacant Light Heavyweight title is up for grabs. In 2022, Procházka won the light heavyweight title, but never got the chance to defend it. A torn shoulder forced him out. He vacated. He didn&#39;t lose the belt in the Octagon. He came back with six straight finishes and a bonus in every single one of them. The vacant title is sitting right there, and Ulberg is the only thing standing between Jiri and finishing what he started. The problem is Ulberg is on a nine-fight win streak, trained by City Kickboxing, long and technical, and capable of ending the night early. One man is chasing something that was taken from him. The other is trying to lead a division he&#39;s never been on top of. That&#39;s the fight.
