UFC: Dricus Du Plessis has explained why he doesn't see any weaknesses in Israel Adesanya ahead of UFC 305.

UFC superstar Israel Adesanya is being heavily backed to suffer his second straight title loss in Sunday’s UFC 305 blockbuster – despite a host of Australian fighters tipping him to reclaim his place atop the middleweight division.

While the New Zealander has been the betting favourite for much of fight week, by Friday morning bookmakers had wound the challenger out slightly -- with both men now paying $1.90 to win. In fact, only Robert Whittaker is tipping du Plessis to defend his crown for the first time -- and via decision -- however admits to it being a “50/50 fight”.

Only three months after being narrowly beat for the UFC flyweight title, Erceg returns to the cage against New Zealand’s Kai Kara-France.
