The UFC’s first pay-per-view of the year is Saturday, February 9th in Melbourne, Australia and the middleweight title will be at stake. Robert Whittaker is set to defend his belt against Kelvin Gastelum in the main event, while rising phenom Israel Adesanya faces the legendary former UFC champion Anderson Silva in the co-main event.
A couple of fights were added to this show, with lightweight prospect Devonte Smith going up against Ma Dong Hyun (formerly known as “Maestro” Dong Hyun Kim) on the main card, while newcomer Marcos Mariano faces the always entertaining Lando Vannata on the preliminary card.
