UFC 311 event score and recap
While it started slowly, the main card delivered. We saw a spectacular performance from Prochazka, whose defense has clearly seen an increase. He made a strong statement to suggest he is the second best welterweight in the world.
Even with Prochazka’s performance and Almeida’s win, you could make a strong case that Dvalishvili was the real star of the event.
The reigning bantamweight champion came back from a two-round deficit to emerge victorious. Also, for what it’s worth, the UFC’s first visit to the Intuit Dome was very successful. The venue is beautiful and we hope it becomes a regular stop for the UFC.
CLASS: B+

UFC Vegas 101 ratings and event recap
With thirst for the UFC at an all-time high after three weeks off in late 2024 and early 2025, many fans were happy to see the Octagon. That said, the warriors also produced.
There were nine finishes including a titanic KO from Almeida, an explosive main roster debut from Smith and a stellar performance from Dern in the main event.
While Apex fights nightly events without big names, this card did everything one could expect and more.
Event grade: A+
