UFC 287 live stream: preview
The first showdown between Alex Pereira and Israel Adesanya was one of the most memorable middleweight fights in UFC history, and now they return to the octagon for another go. Welcome to UFC 287.
Brazil’s Pereira will defend his middleweight title against Nigeria’s Israel Adesanya in the main event. When the pair met before (at UFC 281 in November), Pereira won with a thrilling fifth-round knockout. He also emerged victorious from their two kickboxing encounters outside the UFC – one in 2016 and another the following year. So Adesanya will seek revenge.
The first showdown between Alex Pereira and Israel Adesanya was one of the most memorable middleweight fights in UFC history, and now they’re heading back to the octagon.
As a former middleweight champion, he has a good chance and hopes to regain his title.
It seems that Pereira was brought in to challenge Adesanya’s dominance in the middleweight division, which he succeeded. He has said he wanted a new challenge, and that was the UFC. Now he has the title, he must defend, and contenders come no hungrier than former titleholder Adesanya.
Aside from the title fight, it’s a stacked card. Hometown boy Jorge Masvidal takes on compatriot Gilbert Burns in a welterweight bout, while the bantamweight division sees two of the most exciting strikers go head to head in Rob Font vs Adrian Yanez. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg – see the full map at the end of this article.
