Israel “The Last Stylebender” Adesanya (20-1) is the UFC Middleweight champion, but he’s coming off of his first career loss earlier this year. He attempted to step up a weight class to Light Heavyweight in the hopes of becoming a two division title holder. Instead, Adesanya found himself at a significant size disadvantage against Jan Blachowicz, and he couldn’t overcome it. Adesanya lost on all three scorecards after spending most of the fight pinned down on the mat.
Before his failed move up to Light Heavyweight, Adesanya had been incredibly dominant. Only once in his career has he even had a split decision, winning 15 fights by knockout and another four by unanimous decision. That split decision was his 2018 fight against Marvin Vettori. In that first fight, Adesanay fought well enough to win but he wasn’t satisfied with his performance. Now he has the opportunity and motivation to put on the show he believes he should have last time.
Marvin “The Italian Dream” Vettori (17-4-1) is the third ranked contender for the UFC Middleweight crown, and he’s been absolutely red hot since that loss to Adesanya three years ago. He has won five straight fights, including two back-to-back main event wins over ranked opponents. But all these wins won’t mean much unless he has a better answer for what Adesanya has over him. Vettori gives up 4 inches in height and 6 inches in reach to the champ.
In the last fight he wasn’t able to break through Adesanya’s takedown defense. There were still some things Vettori did with success, especially by fighting with such an aggressive style. For Vettori to have a chance, he may have to take a crazy risk by charging right at the champ early. If it doesn’t work, it could mean a quick sleep for the Italian Dream.
UFC 263 has more for fans than just one Main Event Fight. There are two title fights on this card along with a third fight with two fan favorites going head to head. Flyweight Champion Deiveson Figueiredo (20-1-1) will defend against his number one contender Brandon Moreno (18-5-2). Also Welterweight superstars collide as Leon Edwards (18-3) takes on Nate Diaz (21-12).
