The first two of those wins came in the Chinese kickboxing promotion Glory of Heroes, and Adesanya has argued the judges handed the win to Pereira. In their first rematch, Pereira knocked Adesanya out.
Then, at UFC 281, Pereira knocked Adesanya's middleweight championship off of him in a fifth-round TKO victory. That was Adesanya's first loss in the middleweight class. UFC 287 marks his first defense of the title.
Interestingly enough, Adesanya is actually the favorite at the moment to win, but the numbers have slightly tightened. Right DraftKings has him listed at -130 (bet $130 to win $100), and Pereira (+110) isn't too much of an underdog (bet $100 to win $110).
In the co-main event, odds are tightening on Jorge Masvidal (+340, down from yesterday's +360) and Gilbert Burns (-425, slightly down from -450). The two will fight for momentum towards a Welterweight Championship match. Neither man has beaten Kamaru Usman, who had dropped the title to current champ Leon Edwards.
