The UFC is returning to fight Island (aka Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, UAE), and they’re doing it with the biggest middleweight fight of the year. In the headliner of UFC 253 this Saturday night, Israel Adesanya will look to defend his UFC 185-pound title for the second time, when he takes on his biggest (literally) challenge to date, the undefeated Paulo Costa.
In addition to that, the vacant UFC light heavyweight championship is on the line when Dominick Reyes and Jan Blachowicz face off. The title became vacant after former champ Jon Jones decided to move up to heavyweight.
