It doesn't have to be Rob. It can be somebody else. I want another fight in a stadium in Australia.

Recall that the fight between Robert Whittaker and Dricus du Plessis will take place on July 8 at UFC 290.

Adesanya, 34, in his last fight, which took place in April 2023 at UFC 287, defeated Alex Pereira by TKO in the second round to win back his UFC middleweight championship belt. He has 24 wins and two losses under his belt.
