Newly-minted Middleweight kingpin, Alex Pereira, will look for his fourth combat sports win (second in mixed martial arts) over former 185-pound champion, Israel Adesanya, in the ESPN+streamed pay-per-view (PPV) main event of UFC 287, which will take place inside Miami-Dade Arena in Miami, Fla., on Sat., April 8, 2023. “Last Stylebender” dropped his 185-pound crown to "Poatan" via dramatic, come-from-behind knockout back in Nov. 2022. Meanwhile, UFC 287's PPV co-headliner will feature a pair of former Welterweight title challengers -- Gilbert Burns vs. Jorge Masvidal -- in a 170-pound showdown that will inch the winner closer to another future championship opportunity. UFC 287's PPV show features the return of Kevin Holland, as well as Rob Font, Raul Rosas Jr. and more, too! We'll stockpile all the real-time UFC 287 updates, odds, start time, tickets, weigh ins, predictions, previews, video highlights, press conferences, winners, losers and much more from "The Sunshine State" right here before, during and well after the ESPN+-streamed live PPV show concludes.
