Israel Adesanya Vs Dricus Du Plessis #UFC305 live stream match has emerged.
Israel Adesanya will face Dricus Du Plessis in the main event of UFC 305 tonight, aiming to regain the middleweight title.
Adesanya, a former two-time champion, will aim to take the belt from Du Plessis in the latter’s first title defence, in what is a grudge match in Perth.
After Adesanya dropped the gold to Sean Strickland in a major upset last September, Du Plessis dethroned Strickland in January to become – in his words – the first “real” African UFC champion.
The South African stressed that he meant the first not only to have been born on the continent but also to have trained there throughout his career. However, Nigerian-born Adesanya – who represents New Zealand – took umbrage with that claim. The matter arose again at Thursday’s press conference, as Adesanya burst into tears while calling out Du Plessis.
The pair will settle their grudge tonight, with the middleweight belt on the line in Perth. In the co-main event, flyweight contenders Steve Erceg and Kai Kara-France square off in an Australia vs New Zealand match-up.
American Rap King, Drake is once again placing his dreaded curse on Israel Adesanya ahead of UFC 305 early Sunday at 2 am CAT, from inside RAC Arena in Perth, Australia, as the millionaire rapper has wagered $450,000 on “Last Stylebender” Israel Adesanya to defeat UFC middleweight champion Dricus du Plessis in the main event.
Reports have it that Drake likes to throw some big cash at some of UFC’s most high-profile matchups. The popular hip-hop artist has backed fighters such as Alex Pereira, Nate Diaz, Leon Edwards, and even Francis Ngannou when he fought Anthony Joshua, but one of Drake’s favourite picks is Adesanya.
Coming into this weekend, Drake is once again putting his money on Adesanya to win in the main event. This time around, Drake is betting $450,000 that “Last Stylebender” leaves UFC 305 with the middleweight title. The official payout is just north of $850,000, which isn’t as big as previous wagers but still a great way to close out the weekend.
