UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira is crossing over to Hollywood with his first major acting role booked in upcoming film directed by Adam Wingard, who is also responsible for Godzilla vs. Kong and Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire.
Pereira is expected to portray the villain in the movie Onslaught, which is described as a “gonzo action horror thriller” with DNA similar to some of Wingard’s early films such as You’re Next and The Guest. The Hollywood Reporter first reported the casting news with additional sources confirming Pereira’s casting to MMA Fighting on Thursday.
Pereira is expected to star alongside Adria Arjona (Hit Man) playing “a mother who falls back on a particular set of skills in order to protect her loved ones after she runs afoul of a threat that has escaped a secret military base,”
Pereira plays that threat as a character called The Butcher and he’s expected to incorporate some of his fighting skills in the featured role for the project.

Wingard is set to direct Onslaught with a script from longtime collaborator Simon Barrett, who just recently penned the screenplay for the Samara Weaving led horror film Azrael. The film is being produced by A24, Lyrical Media and Ryder Picture Company.
The role is a first for Pereira, who has quickly become one of the biggest stars on the entire UFC roster after he conquered both the middleweight and light heavyweight divisions in record time. Most recently, Pereira dispatched Khalil Rountree Jr. at UFC 307, which was the third defense of his title in 2024.
Following the fight, Pereira said he had some commitments to fulfill but hoped to return to action in early 2024. It appears playing a villain in the upcoming film Onslaught is one of those obligations now.

NEW YORK —While college football forges on across the country, continuing to set record-breaking TV ratings week after week, a record number of media members were in attendance at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday morning at Big East Basketball Media Day.
Ahh, the Big East. The league that makes any college hoops lover crack a smile. A conference born in 1979 that has stood the test of time. Even when breakups happen, the conference has been able to not just survive, but thrive, accounting for four of the last eight men’s college basketball national championships.
If the walls at the world-famous MSG could have talked on Wednesday, they would have told the stories of Chris Mullin and Patrick Ewing, Pearl Washington, Kemba Walker and, most recently, the likes of Donovan Clingan, Tristan Newton, Jalen Brunson and Kris Jenkins. As the coaches stood at center court for a group photo featuring a Hall of Famer in Rick Pitino, a future Hall of Famer in Dan Hurley, as well as coaches who have etched their names in history with memorable March runs, like Thad Matta, Sean Miller, Shaka Smart, Greg McDermott and Shaheen Holloway, we were all reminded what the Big East is all about: college basketball.
There’s truly no comparison for this league in the college sports landscape. You have northeast hatred with just how badly these teams want to beat one another, but on the same hand, there is a true mutual respect and desire for them to beat out-of-conference opponents in March, to prove the league’s dominance. You have an outspoken social media community that provides nonstop conversation and frivolity. You have the longest running conference tournament at any single venue when the Big East Tournament hits MSG in March for the 43rd consecutive year.

But all of that is supplemental to the biggest point of them all: national championships. When this league shows up to the dinner table, it brings the porterhouse steak with lobster tails in the form of four national titles since 2016. The conference backs up all of its pageantry and elite coaching with wins during the time of year when it matters most.
That starts with Dan Hurley and the monster he has built at UConn. The Huskies are 43-3 in their last 46 games with a 12-game NCAA Tournament winning streak by a combined 260 points. Last year, they posted as dominant of a season as we have seen in recent memory, winning six March Madness games by an average of over 23 points. What Hurley has accomplished in Storrs, Conneticut is frankly unbelievable, and UConn’s bid at a three-peat is quite realistic.
In the last decade, Jay Wright built a dynasty on the Main Line at Villanova and his titles in 2016 and 2018 got the new-look Big East (circa 2013-14) to the grand stage in the sport, solidifying that this league would be able to march on. Now, third-year head coach Kyle Neptune is trying to get the Wildcats back to the NCAA Tournament in what is a critical season after they’ve missed the Big Dance the last two years.
And that illustrates what this year is all about in the Big East: accumulating non-conference results in November and December. While many casual fans don’t follow college hoops until football is done, you get a pretty good idea how many tournament slots each conference is getting by Christmas. Why? Because at that point in conference play, you’re beating up on one another.

Last year, the Big East had three Sweet 16 teams in UConn, Creighton and Marquette, but those were the only three that made the Big Dance. Disappointment? Selection committee errors? Regardless, the league has to silence the “should we have been in?” talk with results early in the season to compile a résumé that says 5–7 teams should make the tournament.
“We think the Big East is primed to remain a college basketball powerhouse, even as the terrain beneath us keeps shifting,” 12th-year commissioner Val Ackerman said on Wednesday.
With national titles, sellout crowds, and some of the biggest characters in the sport, you can’t tell the story of college hoops without the Big East. And because of that, they’re as good a testament as any that basketball still carries weight of its own in the football-driven world.
Here are five other takeaways from Big East Men’s Basketball Media Day:

Rick Pitino holds nothing back about the new landscape
After a first season that saw his Johnnies win six of their final seven games to get into the bubble conversation but fall just short of the NCAA Tournament, Pitino and his staff hit the transfer portal hard and reeled in the No. 4 class in the country, according to 247Sports.com. St. John’s brought in Seton Hall transfer Kadary Richmond and Deivon Smith from Utah, and are returning RJ Luis, Simeon Wilcher, Zuby Ejiofor and Brady Dunlap. With that, the Red Storm are poised for a big season and hovering right around the edge of the preseason top 25.
As for how Pitino views the current college basketball landscape with over 1,500 transfers this past offseason and NIL dollars driving the bus, he’s totally fine with it.
“I’m a big proponent of NIL. We’ve been paid millions of dollars through the years and players got nothing, and I think that’s totally unfair,” Pitino said. “We’ve been able to move, they’ve been unable to move.

“Back when I first started coaching, there were a lot of programs running NIL when NIL was not legal. I like the fact that it’s all legal now. They are professional athletes that are being treated like professional athletes who are getting an education. That’s the ball game. That doesn’t bother me at all. That’s the way it is. I’ll go out and raise money.”
Ryan Kalkbrenner trying to do something only Patrick Ewing has done
Creighton fifth-year senior Ryan Kalkbrenner can join the Georgetown G.O.A.T. this season if he is named Big East Defensive Player of the Year for a fourth time, something only Ewing can say he’s done. Kalkbrenner, a FOX Sports Preseason First-Team All-American, averaged 17.3 points, 7.6 rebounds and a whopping 3.1 blocks (second in country) per game last season. His head coach, Greg McDermott, said that Kalkbrenner deserves more national attention.
“As you look back to last year and the draft boards after the season, Donovan Clingan is a terrific, terrific basketball player. But is Ryan that much different?” McDermott asked. “He’s going to be looked upon as one of the better centers to ever play in the Big East. The best is yet to come for Ryan Kalkbrenner.”

Sean Miller and Xavier look the part of a Sweet 16 team
Last year was an absolute rarity for Xavier, finishing the season with a 16-18 mark and missing out on the Big Dance. The Musketeers, who were dealt a terrible card with injuries, had not had a losing season since 1996. That ate at 20th-year head coach Sean Miller, who has won over 71% of the games he’s coached.
The Musketeers cleaned up with one of the best transfer portal classes in the country, bringing in Ryan Conwell (Indiana State), John Hugley (Oklahoma), Marcus Foster (Furman) and others. With Zach Freemantle and Jerome Hunter finally healthy and ready to make an impact, the Musketeers will have veterans across the board. Dayvion McKnight, who led the Big East in assist-to-turnover ratio last season, is also set to return and should serve as the main ball-handler alongside Conwell.
“You think about it, and he and [Tyler] Kolek, now of the Knicks, were at the top of assist-to-turnover ratio last season,” Miller said of McKnight. “To be able to have that experience back and a starting point guard back, Dayvion knows what to expect. He had an excellent offseason and can be an All-Big East performer.

“As for Ryan Conwell, he can really play. If you were a college basketball fan last year, it was hard to ignore Indiana State, who made it to the final of the NIT against Seton Hall. They won 30 games for a reason. His ability to make 3s at a high rate and be efficient is special. He really lets the game come to him and I appreciate that so much. He’s a great playmaker and has a really bright future. I’m excited for him to play on our stage, the Big East stage. A lot of people will get to know him this year and deservedly so.”
Kam Jones sets aim on authoring an All-American season and leading Marquette back to the Big Dance
Coming off the program’s first Sweet 16 appearance in over a decade, the Golden Eagles lost Kolek and Oso Ighodaro, but are still a preseason top-20 team. That’s a testament to what Shaka Smart, who has won 56 games over the last two seasons, including a Big East regular-season and tournament title, has built in Milwaukee.
The headliner this season is FOX Sports Preseason Third-Team All-American Kam Jones, who averaged 17.2 points per game last year. Smart unveiled Wednesday that Jones, who averaged 2.4 assists per contest last season, is going to do a lot more than just score this season.

“I’m going to give you guys something that nobody really knows: he’s a better passer than you think,” Smart said of Jones. “You’re going to see this year a really dynamic playmaker in Kam Jones. Remember, Tyler [Kolek] was out for some time at the end of last season, and we got to see it. Kam had 30 points and nine assists at Xavier and that gave you a sense that he could score and distribute at the same time. You will see a guy who will be one of the best guards in college basketball.”
Last year, Seton Hall was picked to finish ninth in the Big East preseason poll. The Pirates proceeded to beat UConn and Marquette and go 13-7 in the league with a top-four finish. This season? The coaches hold The Hall in even lower regard, picking them 10th in the league.
Yes, the Pirates only return two impactful players in fifth-year senior Dylan Addae-Wusu and sophomore Isaiah Coleman. But Shaheen Holloway has won 42 games in his first two years on the job with the Pirates, the most by a coach in his first two years in program history. He also led Saint Peter’s to the Elite Eight in 2022. Doesn’t he deserve a bit more respect?

“It is what it is. People got time to sit around and pick other people’s teams. It’s kind of nuts,” Holloway said. “I’m not worried about nobody else. You know me, I don’t really care if we’re picked first or last. It doesn’t mean anything. It’s preseason. I just care about my team.
“You know me, you know my teams, we get better as the year goes on. So, right now, I’m not happy where we are, but I think we’re going to be really good. I think we have a chance.”
The Pirates brought in length and versatility in the form of Ohio State transfer Scotty Middleton, Boston College transfer Prince Aligbe, and a quality mid-major guard in Chaunce Jenkins (Old Dominion). And don’t sleep on Providence transfer Garwey Dual. The reigning NIT champions have a coach and motivated pieces in place to prove doubters wrong again.

The main event for UFC 308 features a featherweight title fight between two of the best boxers you will find in MMA today.

An aggressive fighter who came out of the gates as more of a bull than a matador, Ilia Topuria is developing an elite striking game before our very eyes.
Typically looking to cut off the cage, Topuria will initially display a lot of the right ideas you’d like to see from forward-moving fighters. From small feints that accompany Topuria’s pressure to the tight distances he likes to keep on the feet, the Georgian fighter’s style ensures high temperatures in his fights.
Here’s a close look at Topuria’s stance and how he chews up space.
He’s constantly transitioning his weight from rear to lead and vice versa

Although Topuria isn’t the tallest or longest fighter in his division, he has a knack for punching with his opponents in order to meet them in the middle. The 27-year-old is also good about flowing into left hooks, particularly down low to the liver.
Against Josh Emmett, Topuria demonstrated the ability to focus his aggression for the better part of 25 minutes in what was a boxing masterclass opposite a devastating puncher.
Aside from solid footwork and a beautiful jab, Topuria quietly incorporated some slick shoulder rolls to protect his chin and take some power off of Emmett’s shots. This tactic and the spirit of Topuria’s movement, in general, also feed right into the Georgian’s patent pull counters (which come with a Conor McGregor-Esque swagger in tow).

Topuria also has some underrated calf kicks that will likely have some play in this fight, but making any sort of hay on Max Holloway is usually easier said than done.
Displaying solid striking and footwork fundamentals since storming onto the UFC scene (as one of the promotion’s youngest signees, no less), Holloway, who was already improving from fight to fight, turned a big corner in his career after his encounter with Cub Swanson.
Since then, we have witnessed a technical evolution unfold from the Hawaiian, who embraces his creativity and range with a diverse arsenal of attacks. Whether Holloway is shifting his stance mid-combination or adjusting his timing on the fly, the former featherweight kingpin makes for a hard read on the feet.
When feeling in stride, the 32-year-old looks to pay off his previous bodywork by punctuating his presence with everything from spinning sidekicks to digging left hooks to the liver. Coupled with his ability to counter effectively from either stance, Holloway can hypothetically take a fight in many different directions.

That all said, it is the building nature of the champion’s game that makes him stand out from the rest of the UFC stable.
Embodying a fighter archetype that I like to refer to as “a builder,” Holloway will not only build on his output, but his understanding of the fight’s traffic will also increase as he intelligently takes tools from his opponent and incorporates them into his game.
Nevertheless, offensive volume – no matter how clever – comes with a price.

Ilia Topuria vs. Max Holloway breakdown: Potential grappling threats

Between the potential for chaos on the feet to Topuria’s on-paper advantages in the grappling department, no one should be shocked if this party touches the mat this weekend.
A dangerous submission grappler who grew up with jiu-jitsu, Topuria has proven to be a top-level black belt with his finishing prowess on the floor. A demon from the front-headlock position, Topuria can seamlessly transition into his favored anaconda choke like it’s second nature. Topuria is also a solid wrestler and superb scrambler – an area where his athleticism particularly shines through in the way in which he floats positions.
Still, I’ll be curious to see how much Topuria respects the grappling of Holloway in this fight.

Holloway’s superb striking may hallmark a large part of his brand, but the Hawaiian has quietly made consistent improvements to his counter grappling, maintaining an impressive 84 percent takedown defense rate.
Even when having his takedown defense tested by some of the best wrestlers in the division, Holloway has been able to snuff out a large majority of the shots sent his way (even smoothly re-wrestling his way to ride positions of his own on occasion).
Not only does Holloway display the balance and defense to stuff takedowns, but he also shows an excellent awareness of how to conduct his hips and grips in close. Deceptively hand-fighting to counter clinches and grappling efforts, Holloway demonstrates a knack for striking off the breaks, something that could be worth watching for in this fight.
More importantly, whether Holloway is conducting himself from the clinch or inside the chaos of transition, he has always prioritized protecting his neck and head by either maintaining an upright posture in close or keeping his hands in the proper neighborhood to defend grasps.
Advertisement
Even back in his controversially scored loss to Dennis Bermudez, Holloway showed the defensive habits of defending chokes (that often weren’t coming his way) in transit, which tells me that this habit is deeply hardwired into his system. That said, Topuria will still be but one scramble or front choke away from potentially changing the complexion of this fight.

The oddsmakers and public are siding with the sitting champ, listing Topuria -250 and Holloway +190 via FanDuel.
Ilia Topuria vs. Max Holloway prediction, pick
As someone who has been high on Topuria since prior to his UFC debut, I can understand the excitement and high projections that come in tow with the current champion. From his technical savvy that appeals to hardcore fight fans and analysts alike to the undeniable swagger that makes him likable to the Gen Pop, Topuria looks to be the total package thus far in his young career.
That said, for as impressive as Topuria has looked, it’s hard to say just how much he’s proven given the overall length and range of his sample size, particularly in comparison to someone like Holloway. And despite everything from age to arguable cage craft being against Holloway, I still think that there is a lot to like about the underdog side of this equation from a stylistic perspective.
Advertisement
First off, I believe that a majority of the avenues that outline this matchup are potent two-way streets (which is why this fight is so rich from an analytical standpoint). Whether we’re talking about jab or calf kick openings, similar-themed criticisms can be lobbied at both parties. As far as the footwork battle is concerned, I suspect that the dynamic could be much more complicated than many expect.
The basic thought is that Topuria’s high-temperature, cage-cutting approach will be able to reliably funnel Holloway into the sitting champion’s win conditions – with some even suggesting that we might see the first knockout loss in Holloway’s career.
Although such a scenario is sadly on the table in this game, I believe that Holloway’s lateral movement and circling sensibilities have some play in this fight. Holloway may not utilize the same footwork fundamentals as Jose Aldo or may not be as flashy as T.J. Dillashaw when it comes to his pivots or shifts, but the Hawaiian has consistently shown solid ring awareness throughout his career.
Even in this latter stage of Holloway’s striking evolution that sees him sitting down harder on his punches and kicks alike (something I was saying in breakdowns before picking him in his last fight), the 32-year-old still shows good reactions in the heat of the fire and is prompt about getting back on the clock in regards to circling back to the center and resetting.
That said, Holloway will undeniably be playing with fire if he outfights around the inner-black octagon lines against some like Topuria, who – akin to Robbie Lawler – comes to life whenever anyone enters his preferred kill zone.
Whether Holloway’s getting his kicks countered or is being heavily pressured, he can be pushed back to the fence to his detriment. Topuria knows this, so both he and his backers seem to believe that it’s basically hook, line and sinker this Saturday.
But as I pointed out before UFC 300, Holloway’s kicks and counters off the backfoot have been extra potent since his last loss to Alexander Volkanovski.

When going back to look at Holloway’s recent fights since said loss, you can see that – for whatever success his opponent had pushing him backward – the former champ was able to answer right back with even more impactful blows (continuing his career-long theme of looking better the more aggressive his opposition gets).

Whether Holloway is unleashing counter hooks (from either side) or is intercepting opponents with stupidly accurate spinning assaults, the Waianae native has proven to have many answers for pressure up his proverbial sleeve. Holloway has even gotten better at using everything from double-hand traps to crafty clinch frames and tactics to help further stymie the pressure coming his way.
And though Holloway has one of the best chins in the history of this sport, the 14-year pro continues to demonstrate stellar defensive adjustments on the fly (as seen below in the way in which he’s immediately able to slip and circle off the very same attacks that previously cleaned his clock just moments prior).
Whereas Topuria, even in an impressive victory over Josh Emmett, proved to be more defensively susceptible as the fight went deeper. More specifically, Topuria demonstrated specific openings that could be problematic against someone like Holloway and his shot selection.
Ilia Topuria’s common culprit are left-sided strikes (that land on Topuria’s right side) due to his dipping/crouching sensibilities.
Curious how that will stack up against Holloway’s shot selection, especially if the fight goes deep… pic.twitter.com/PayoVQphXw
As stated in my prior breakdowns of Topuria, left-sided strikes (landing on Topuria’s right side) are the champion’s common culprit by a clear margin. And aside from Holloway quietly hurting a lot of his foes with his lead hand, I believe that the Hawaiian also has the southpaw card up his sleeve if he wants to play it.
Although Holloway never stays in one stance the whole time, I can’t imagine there would be a fight where fighting southpaw makes more sense than this one.
Not only does the open stance dynamic take away the jabs and calf kick from Topuria (who you’ll be hard-pressed to find a lot of samples of meaningful jabs thrown, much less landed, by Topuria in open stance looks), but the Spaniard’s style doesn’t seem to vibe well when opposite of this stance given how he tends to revert to selling out from his power side.
Whereas Holloway, no matter the dynamic at hand, is a consistent jabber and bodywork from both stances.
Advertisement
Everything from Holloway’s uppercuts to his spinning side kicks will be live from his orthodox stance due to Topuria’s dipping propensities, but I genuinely believe that Holloway will find success with head kicks and crosses if he meaningfully commits some stretches to southpaw in this fight.
Add in Holloways ridiculous durability and the fact that he’s the more proven and effective fighter over five rounds, and I’ll happily take a flier on “Blessed” to survive the early scares in order to pull away down the stretch for a stoppage win in Round 4.
Prediction: Holloway inside the distance
Ilia Topuria vs. Max Holloway start time, where to watch
As the main event, Topuria and Holloway are expected to make their walks to the octagon at approximately 4:45 p.m. ET. The fight streams live on ESPN+ pay-per-view.
