The timing is perfect for the upcoming weekend as UFC 311 will raise the curtain on the anticipated world lightweight championship bout of UFC pound-for-pound #1 ranked fighter Islam Makhachev and top challenger Arman Tsarukyan.

Additional Alter Egos with Prime Series V are also entering the Octagon today including:

  • Chan Sung Jung (2012, Featherweight)
    1. Noteworthy career win vs. Dustin Poirier and hitting the first twister submission in UFC history
  • Anthony Johnson (2016, Light heavyweight, UFC 202)
    1. One of light heavyweight’s most fearsome KO artists who finished former title challenger (and future champion) Glover Texeira in 13 seconds
