How does UFC commentator Jon Anik, see the main-event playing out?
The promotions headliner of the event will see the middleweight rematch between Israel Adesanya (21-1 MMA) and Robert Whittaker (24-5 MMA).

“I expect a better and more disciplined attempt from Whittaker… I do think that Whittaker will try and mix it up, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see if it ends up being a kickboxing match and an absolute war on the feet.”
