UFC 305 went down on Saturday night, August 17, at Perth, Australia’s RAC Arena. The main event of this card, which was packed with Australians, was an exciting one. Middleweight champion Dricus Du Plessis was defending the title for the first time against Israel Adesanya, the previous champion. Both fighters were able to land solid strikes and combinations throughout the fight, which had a level playing field. However, Du Plessis abruptly changed the course. He delivered three forceful right blows to Adesanya’s head in quick succession. After landing a devastating left to the latter’s head that brought Adesanya to the ground, he locked in a rear-naked choke. At 3:38 of the fourth, Adesanya tapped, handing Du Plessis the submission victory
