This will be a chance for Adesanya to avenge his defeat, as Pereira had previously beaten him twice in their kickboxing days.

In addition to the main event, the co-main event of UFC 287 will feature Jorge Masvidal fighting Gilbert Burns, and 18-year-old Raul Rosas Jr will also be competing.

Kevin Holland and Rob Font vs. Adrian Yanez are also added to the card.
