The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) has declared that UFC 305 will take place in Perth, Western Australia, in August.
The greatest athletes from that area are typically featured on fight cards; examples of this include former middleweight champion Israel Adesanya at UFC 293 and former featherweight champion Alex Volkanovski at UFC 284.
Adesanya vs Du Plessis for UFC 305
Unsurprisingly, "The Last Stylebender" is "ready to go" for UFC 305, and according to the New Zealand Herald, the promotion is considering a title match between Dricus Du Plessis and the UFC as the main attraction.
Head coach Eugene Bareman says Israel will contend for the championship next.
Potential Adesanya vs. Du Plessis title fight odds have already been set by the bookmakers, and the contest opened at even money.
As far as future matchmaking goes, UFC 305 sounds like a no-brainer, though nothing is announced yet.
