In what is sure to be an action-packed main event, Middleweight champion faces off against interim champion Israel Adesanya, when the UFC returns to Australia this coming weekend. Add to the mix the Aussie/Kiwi rivalry that is sure to come out, this is set to be one of the most anticipated fights of the year, with advance ticket sales already making this the biggest combat sports event ever in the southern hemisphere.
The co-main event at 155lbs, features Al Iaquinta up against Dan Hooker. This should prove to be a good test for Kiwi Hooker, as he looks to move into the top ten rankings.
A proposed bout between Holly Holm and Raquel Pennington had to be scrapped this week due to Holm suffering a tendon injury that affected her hamstring
