One of the most thrilling Encounter in Ultimate Fighting Championship history will reach its conclusion on Saturday.Adesanya
In the co-main event, Israel Adesanya vs Marvin Vettori will battle for the vacant light walterweight title. Israel Adesanya recently vacated the title as he plans his move up to the middileweight division, leaving the top contenders to square off to crown a new champion. Vettori is coming off a controversial decision loss to Chandler, suffering the first defeat of his career in the process. Adesanya is on a three-fight winning streak, most recently knocking out Vettori.
Below are the confirmed bouts for the fight card that is still yet to announce a location less than a month out. Among the most interesting bouts is Leon Edwards vs Nate Diaz as Edwards nears the end of his career. He won his most recent outing by disqualification after Michel Diaz landed an illegal knee. Because of that, he's won three of his last four fights.
