Former two-time champion headlines UFC Seattle

Published:

A middleweight bout between former two-time titleholder Israel Adesanya and No. 15 ranked Joe Pyfer headlines the UFC Fight Night event on March 28 in Seattle. The fight promotion announced the news on Tuesday. 

Climate Pledge Arena hosts the event and it will be the fifth time the fight promotion has held a fight card in The Emerald City. 

Pyfer (15-3) will enter the bout riding a three-fight winning streak. He last fought in October, defeating Abusupiyan Magomedov via submission. A win over the No. 6 ranked former champion would catapult Pyfer up the rankings into contender status. 

In the fight card’s co-main event, former women’s flyweight champion Alexa Grasso returns to take on No. 5 ranked Maycee Barber.
