Saint Preux and Spann Rebooked for UFC 307
Ovince Saint Preux and Ryan Spann’s light heavyweight bout was moved from UFC Fight Night in September to UFC 307 on October 5, 2024, after Saint Preux withdrew from the original date because of illness.
Rescheduled bout
The matchup was added to the UFC 307 card at Delta Center in Salt Lake City. The card was headlined by light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira against Khalil Rountree Jr.; Raquel Pennington and Julianna Peña contested the women’s bantamweight title in the co-main event.
Fight result
Spann submitted Saint Preux with a guillotine choke at 1:35 of the first round. UFC’s official prelim recap confirms the result. The bout ended quickly and did not go to the judges.
Context
The rescheduling gave both fighters a place on a numbered event after the September withdrawal. Saint Preux had withdrawn from an earlier scheduled bout because of illness before the UFC rebooked him against Spann.
The bout’s placement on a numbered card followed Saint Preux’s withdrawal from the September date. Once rebooked, Spann ended it before two minutes had elapsed with a guillotine. The result is a straightforward first-round submission, separate from the title fights that headlined UFC 307.
