The main card for UFC’s next pay-per-view event is set.
During Saturday’s UFC 304 broadcast, the main card for UFC 305 was revealed. The event takes place Aug. 17 at RAC Arena in Perth, Western Australia, headlined by a rivalry fight for the middleweight title between new champ Dricus du Plessis and former two-time champ Israel Adesanya.
In the co-main event, recent flyweight title challenger Steve Erceg fights in front of his home crowd against past interim title challenger Kai Kara-France.
