This is a live blog covering the UFC 314 light heavyweight fight between Nikita Krylov and Dominick Reyes. The match is set to take place on Saturday at the Kaseya Center in Miami.
Nikita Krylov, holding the No. 9 spot in the MMA Fighting Global Rankings for the 205-pound division, will face Dominick Reyes, who is currently ranked No. 15.
Krylov returns to the Octagon after a hiatus of 763 days, his last fight being on March 11, 2023. Despite his inactivity, he maintains a strong position in the rankings, backed by a three-fight winning streak that includes first-round finishes against Ryan Spann (submission) and Alexander Gustafsson (knockout).
Dominick Reyes is looking to solidify a comeback. After a loss to Jon Jones in a title fight at UFC 247, followed by four consecutive defeats, Reyes bounced back with a quick knockout victory over Dustin Jacoby in June 2024 and a second-round finish against Anthony Smith at UFC 310. Another win could propel Reyes back into the top 10 rankings.
