UFC Seattle - also known as UFC Fight Night 271 - takes place on March 28 at Climate Pledge Arena and is headlined by a middleweight showdown pitting Israel Adesanya against Joe Pyfer. In the co-main event, ex-flyweight queen Alexa Grasso will square off against Maycee Barber at 125 pounds. The card will air in its entirety on Paramount+."

In his lone appearance of 2025, "The Last Stylebender" suffered a second-round technical knockout defeat to Nassourdine Imavov in the UFC Saudi Arabia headliner last February. Adesanya captured 185-pound gold in October 2019 and authored five successful title defenses before relinquishing the belt to kickboxing rival Alex Pereira at UFC 281."
