He followed up this performance by finishing Robert Whittaker for the undisputed title in front of a record-breaking crowd of over 57, fans.

Now, Adesanya looks to put on another vintage performance and become the first person to defeat Costa. Brazilian powerhouse Costa , fighting out of Contagem, Minas Gerais, Brazil intends to make the most of his first UFC title shot by landing another signature knockout.

Costa developed his reputation as one of the most devastating finishers in the middleweight division by stopping all but one of his wins before the final bell, including victories over Uriah Hall, Johny Hendricks and Garreth McLellan.

Now, he plans to dethrone Adesanya and begin his reign as undisputed champion. Reyes , fighting out of Victorville, Calif. Blachowicz , fighting out of Warsaw, Poland is among the most successful UFC athletes to hail from Poland and has his sights set on becoming the first male Polish champion.

Ibragimov had a slow start to the fight and that continued into round two, even though he left Marques with a cut on his nose in the first that bothered the Brazilian.

Espino opened his scoring with a takedown in the second minute and moved right into side control. Hughes found his way back to his feet a few times, but Espino still found a way to drag him to the mat repeatedly, and after yet another takedown, he locked in the arm triangle that forced Hughes to tap out at the mark.

The majority of the first round was spent in the clinch, Camur controlling much of the time against the fence, but with not much action going on, leading to a restart by referee Lukasz Bosacki with 40 seconds left.

Once separated, Knight landed a couple hard punches, but then the horn intervened. The bout went to the mat early in round two, Camur taking his back but Knight reversing position and getting on top in the second minute.

Camur got out of trouble and back to his feet moments later, and it was into the clinch again until Knight threw his foe to the mat.

After taking a few ground strikes, Camur got to his feet again, but he was grounded once more with under two minutes to go. This time, Knight kept him there until the end of the frame, nearly finishing matters with a late arm lock.

The third was another Knight round, allowing him to leave the Octagon with the victory via scores of and twice.
