UFC 263 takes place in Glendale, Arizona on Saturday night, with two title fights on the card and a huge clash featuring fan favourite Nate Diaz.
In the main event, Israel Adesanya defends his middleweight title against Italy’s Marvin Vettori, whom ‘Stylebender’ outpointed in 2018 – a year-and-a-half before winning divisional gold.
The co-main event is another rematch, as Brandon Moreno again challenges flyweight titleholder Deiveson Figueiredo, six months after the pair fought to a draw.
Elsewhere, Diaz returns after almost two years out to take on third-ranked welterweight Leon Edwards in a historic bout. For the first time ever, the UFC is turning a non-title, non-main event bout into a five-round meeting as Briton Edwards pursues a rematch with 175lbs champion Kamaru Usman.
