UFC 305 showcased a highly anticipated middleweight championship bout, with Dricus Du Plessis and Israel Adesanya finally facing off after a year of tension and rivalry.
The intense feud took on a racial aspect when Du Plessis described himself as the 'real' African fighter, leading to heightened emotions and verbal exchanges with Adesanya.
Du Plessis's comments regarding his identity as a fighter from Africa not only ignited his rivalry with Adesanya but also indirectly affected the perception of former champions Usman and Ngannou.
The flyweight co-main event between Steve Erceg and Kai Kara-France is crucial for both fighters, as a victory could propel them into the title contention.
