The highly anticipated event now has an eye-catching poster.
The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) has unveiled the official fight poster for the upcoming UFC 305: “Du Plessis vs. Adesanya” pay-per-view spectacle set to take place on Saturday, August 17, 2024, at the RAC Arena in Perth, Western Australia. This poster truly stands out from the recent trend of unimpressive ones.
This event will see Dricus Du Plessis (21-2) defend his middleweight title for the first time after clinching the crown from Sean Strickland at UFC 297 earlier this year in Toronto. Also, Israel Adesanya (24-3) is returning to the octagon following his defeat to Strickland at UFC 293 in late 2023.
Apart from the headline fight, UFC 305 will include a thrilling flyweight battle between Kai Kara-France and Steve Erceg. The event will also showcase a heavyweight showdown featuring Tai Tuivasa and former kickboxer Jairzinho Rozenstruik, alongside a heavyweight clash between Junior Tafa and Valter Walker.
“UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira expressed his support for Adesanya in the upcoming bout against Du Plessis, acknowledging Adesanya’s talents and urging him to continue his successful journey in the sport.”
