Israel Adesanya retained his UFC middleweight title after defeating Marvin Vettori via unanimous decision at UFC 263 in Glendale, Arizona's Gila River Arena on Saturday.
Adesanya won 50-45 on all three judges' scorecards. He received a brief scare when Vettori tried to apply a rear-naked choke in Round 3, but Adesanya escaped and otherwise dominated the fight for all five rounds.
Adesanya had 96 significant strikes to Vettori's 58. Vettori did land four takedowns, however.
After the match, Adesanya stood alone atop the middleweight mountain once again, and it's clear that he's the king of the division.
