return of Israel Adesanya. UFC Seattle takes place on Saturday at Climate Pledge Arena, streaming exclusively on Paramount+ in the United States. The main card was officially announced during the UFC London broadcast this past Saturday.
Adesanya looks to snap a skid that includes three straight losses, and dropping four of his last five as he faces Joe Pyfer in the main event of the UFC Fight Night card. The co-main event features a pivotal flyweight matchup as former champ Alexa Grasso faces Maycee Barber in a rematch from their February 2021 matchup, which Grasso picked up a decision. The newest addition to the card was the final opponent of Michael Chiesa’s career, as he’s set to drop the gloves in the octagon in front of a home crowd.
Originally slated to face Carlston Harris, it was revealed that Chiesa now faces Niko Price in the featured bout of the card. “Maverick” enters the bout on a three-fight win streak, which includes submissions of Tony Ferguson and Max Griffin. Check out the full UFC Seattle main card below.
