UFC 281: Adesanya vs. Pereira

This is exactly what Adesanya needs, since his last few fights have been snoozers, and this promises to be a doozy. Adesanya actually wants this to be a horror show: he envisions a horizontal Pereira waking up, with Adesanya being the first thing he sees when he opens his eyes. Or so Adesanya told TMZ.

You will get to check out how this middle-weight title bout pans out after enthralling hours of great fights, including a strawweight Carla Esparza-Zhang Weili bout plus a a lightweight Michael Chandler-Dustin Poirier clash. With Israel Adesanya (23-1) and Alex Pereira (6-1), plus Pereira having beaten Adesanya in their last meet-ups, except in kickboxing, the oddsmakers are having a hard time piecing so many trends together!
