Along with confirming Alexa Grasso’s rematch with Maycee Barber, Dana White revealed that Israel Adesanya will headline UFC Seattle on March 28. This will be the first time in the former two-time middleweight champion’s career that he’s fought in the main event of a Fight Night card on back-to-back occasions.

At this point in his mixed martial arts career, Israel Adesanya is just looking for a good time. In the main event of UFC’s card in Seattle on March 29, he’s sure to find one. The UFC’s only two-time middleweight champion will return to action after more than a year out of the octagon against No 15-ranked Joe Pyfer.

Israel Adesanya hasn’t fought in a hot minute since his 3-fight losing skid. With fight pundits arguing his best years are behind him, and even retirement rumors swirling in the UFC fandom, ‘Izzy’s vigor has become a thing of the past.
