Follow Us
The UFC 300 main event has been finalized. Building on the success of UFC 298, Dana White seized the opportunity to announce the highly anticipated main event for UFC 300 – the return of former light heavyweight champion, Jamahal Hill. White declared that Alex Pereira would be defending his light-heavyweight title against Hill. In making this announcement, White overlooked several other fighters, including Israel Adesanya.
‘Stylebender’ took an indefinite break from fighting after losing against Sean Strickland last year, however, the former middleweight champion asserted that he would make a comeback soon. Adesanya even dropped hints about his comeback at the UFC 300 but seems like the UFC head honcho has some other plans for him. Heartbroken, Adesanya has now broken his silence on not being included at the grand event.
