Which UFC 263 fight is poised to be the show-stealer we’re talking about Sunday morning?

UFC 263 is jam-packed with killer fights atop the bill Saturday in Arizona.

Every pay-per-view, there’s a fight that winds up with the most headlines afterward. And at Gila River Arena in Glendale, there are two title fights, plus a five-round non-title scrap – a first in UFC history for a non-main event, not-title fight – all vying for attention.

In the headliner, middleweight champion Israel Adesanya (20-1 MMA, 9-1 UFC) meets Marvin Vettori (17-3-1 MMA, 7-2-1 UFC) in a rematch for the title. In the co-feature, flyweight champ Deiveson Figueiredo (20-1-1 MMA, 9-1-1 UFC) takes on Brandon Moreno (18-5-2 MMA, 6-2-2 UFC) in another rematch. And then there’s the five-rounded between Nate Diaz (20-12 MMA, 15-10 UFC) and Leon Edwards (18-3 MMA, 10-2 UFC).

So is one of these the show-stealer? Or will it be something else farther down the card? That’s the question we posed to our “Spinning Back Clique” panel of George Garcia, Danny Segura and Matthew Wells, who talked about their picks with host John Morgan.
