Israel Adesanya aims to equal Anderson Silva's middleweight record of 13 straight wins this weekend at ufc281.  The man charged with stopping the dominance is relative UFC newcomer Alex Pereira.

These men have fought twice before in a previous kickboxing life where Pereira won both times, knocking Izzy out in their second bout, but can he do it in MMA?  The champion has been criticised for lacklustre performances so will this old rival bring out the best of the last stylebender?

Theres plenty to preview heading into a week at MSG

We also take a look back at the weekends action where Amanda Lemos emerges as the next contender at Straw weight.
