Melbourne, Australia will serve as the backdrop for a massive middleweight title fight between Robert Whittaker and Israel Adesanya at UFC 243.
The two New Zealand fighters have slugged their way to the top of the division and Australia works as a fitting location for a highly hyped matchup.
Whittaker returns from a lengthy sabbatical that has lasted over a year. He was forced to withdraw from a bout against Kelvin Gastelum for emergency surgery on an abdominal hernia and will now return to action.
In that time, Adesanya has made himself the clear-cut No.
