Who is fighting in the main headline fight at UFC 302?

The main headline fight at UFC 302 is a UFC Heavyweight bout between Jailton Almeida and (probably) Alexander Romanov. Almeida was originally set to face Bellator champion Alexander Volkov, but this bout was called off for reasons that have not yet been explained. Nonetheless, the new matchup should be an intriguing one, with the Brazilian Almeida currently ranked 7th and Romanov, who hails from Moldova, 13th. Both fighters have excellent striking power and are very much capable of delivering a knockout blow, but also have strong ground games with high numbers of submission victories. This one is really too close to call, folks!
