Two title fights, and a special welterweight showcase, headlined UFC 263 on Saturday night and all of the marquee matchups delivered in one way or another.
Israel Adesanya returned to the middleweight division after he failed to capture a second title in his bid to become light heavyweight champion but that didn’t deter him from putting on a five-round clinic against Marvin Vettori in the main event. While he didn’t get the finish, Adesanya answered a lot of questions with his performance as he staved off any attempts from Vettori to control him on the ground and he showcased his signature striking to dominate the fight on the feet.
