If Adesanya's favoritism is confirmed until the day of the fight, Poatan would arrive with 'zebra' status for the third time in five fights in the organization. Until now, the Brazilian entered as an underdog against Sean Strickland and the Nigerian himself, but he responded in the Octagon with impressive knockouts.

'Izzy', in turn, opened from behind against Robert whittaker in his first title fight, but on the day of the fight he had already reversed his analysis and entered as favorite. In all his 14 appearances, the former middleweight champion (up to 83,9kg) never knew what it was like to enter needing to prove his worth in the bookmakers.
