Every UFC 259: Jan Blachowicz vs. Israel Adesanya face-off.

The UFC 259: Jan Blachowicz vs. Israel Adesanya weigh-ins are now complete, and all of the fighters competing on the massively-hyped UFC card now get to the final face-off before throwing down with their opponents in a little more than 24 hours’ time.

UFC President Dana White was on hand to try to ensure that everything stayed in control and went off without a hitch.

The main event of UFC 259 will see Jan Blachowicz defend the UFC light heavyweight championship against UFC middleweight titleholder Israel Adesanya. Adesanya will be looking to become the fifth fighter in UFC history to hold two divisions’ championships at the same time. This will be Blachowicz’s first title defense since winning the gold at UFC 253.

In the co-main event, the (so far) only remaining champ-champ in the UFC, Amanda Nunes, will defend the UFC women’s featherweight title against Megan Anderson. Nunes successfully defended the 145-pound title in June by outclassing Felicia Spencer at UFC 250.

Prior to that, Petr Yan will defend the UFC bantamweight championship in a long-awaited showdown with Aljamain Sterling. This marks Yan’s first defense.
