Israel Adesanya is looking to add another title defense to his already impressive title reign since winning the belt back in 2019. Adesanya recently defeated Robert Whittaker for the second time back in February at UFC 271, where he won via unanimous decision.

Jared Cannonier is looking to capture the middleweight title after coming a impressive second round TKO victory over Derek Brunson at UFC 271 last February of 2022.
