The time has come for the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s annual November jaunt to New York, and the promotion will once again bring a stacked card to Madison Square Garden. The UFC 281 main event on Saturday is a fascinating bit of business, as Israel Adesanya defends his middleweight title against Alex Pereira—the only man to defeat him twice in kickboxing. It is a bit of a stunning accomplishment that Pereira made it to this spot in a year flat, given that he made his UFC debut the last time the organization touched down in The Big Apple.
