Count it five successful defenses of the undisputed UFC middleweight championship for reigning division best, Israel Adesanya, who turns in a quite simple and straightforward unanimous decision win over the #2 ranked challenger, Jared Cannonier to round out tonight’s UFC 276 card in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Israel Adesanya, who sported an Undertaker-inspired theme for his Octagon entrance — with an urn in two, scored yet another rather one-sided, but majorly uneventful unanimous decision title retention during his reign as the division’s undisputed pacesetter.

Keeping the Texas challenger, Cannonier at bay over the course of five rounds, Adesanya poked both a stiff and lightning fast jab in the face of his opposition over the course of five frames, as the duo traded and exchanged leg kicks.

Forced to defend himself in the clinch and knockback some potential takedown offerings from Cannonier, Adesanya managed to land a judging (49-46, 49-46, 50-45) triumph over Cannonier.

Following the win, which retains Adesanya’s 100 percent win rate at the middleweight limit, the Nigerian-Kiwi called out Alex Pereira following his brutal KO win over Sean Strickland earlier tonight — as the City Kickboxing staple attempts to avenge two prior kickboxing losses to the Brazilian berserker.

Alex Volkanovski, Max Holloway

Alex Volkanovski showcased a masterful performance to outclass Max Holloway at UFC 276.

Going into the bout on a 21-fight win streak, Alex Volkanovski was looking to solidify his status as one of the greatest featherweights as he took on Max Holloway, for a third time at tonight’s UFC 276: Adesanya vs. Cannonier at the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada.

Volkanovski’s bout with Holloway served as the co-main event of the night. Right from the get-go, Volkanovski proved to be too quick for Holloway. He utilized his jab greatly to execute his strategic game plan. While Holloway did have some good moments, he did not appear to be on the same level as the reigning 145 lbs king.

The pair went the full distance as Volkanovski would put an end to their iconic rivalry with a third and decisive win over Holloway. He defended his belt via a unanimous decision (50-45 x3)
