 The highly anticipated UFC 308 pay-per-view event is just around the corner, featuring a thrilling light heavyweight bout between Magomed Ankalaev and Aleksandar Rakic. As the No. 2 ranked fighter in the division, Ankalaev seeks to prove his title contender status against the No. 5 ranked Rakic, who is looking to bounce back from a two-fight losing streak.

With Ankalaev's impressive 12-fight winning streak and Rakic's experience as an ex-UFC middleweight titleholder, this matchup promises to be an intense and closely contested battle. The odds favor Ankalaev at -430, but Rakic is determined to put up a strong showing and potentially earn himself another shot at the UFC light heavyweight title.

Fans can tune in to ESPN+ PPV on Saturday, October 26, starting at 2:00 p.m. ET, following preliminary bouts on ESPN+ at 10:00 a.m. ET.
