Du Plessis claimed the middleweight crown with a split-decision triumph over Sean Strickland at UFC 297 on Jan. 20. The 30-year-old South African will carry a nine-bout winning streak into his grudge match with Adesanya. He also owns notable victories over the likes of Robert Whittaker, Derek Brunson and Darren Till.
Adesanya is returning to action for the first time since relinquishing the 185-pound strap in an upset loss to Strickland at UFC 293 last September. “The Last Stylebender” is 13-3 over the course of a promotional tenure that began in 2018.
