UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya will attempt to become a two-weight champion on March 6, when he moves up in weight to challenge light heavyweight titleholder Jan Blachowicz.
UFC president Dana White broke the news to ESPN on Wednesday. The 205-pound title fight will take place at UFC 259. The promotion has not yet announced a location for the pay-per-view event.
Adesanya (20-0) is the No. 4-ranked pound-for-pound fighter in the world, according to ESPN. The 31-year-old won the 185-pound title by knocking out Robert Whittaker in October 2019. He defended the belt twice in 2020, via decision against Yoel Romero and by TKO against Paulo Costa in September.
Adesanya will retain his middleweight championship while he moves up in weight. He is vying to become the eighth two-weight champion in UFC history, and would join a list that includes Randy Couture, BJ Penn, Conor McGregor, Georges St-Pierre, Daniel Cormier, Henry Cejudo and Amanda Nunes.
Błachowicz (27-8), of Poland, won the vacant light heavyweight title in September, when he knocked out Dominick Reyes in the second round at UFC 253. Jon Jones vacated the title earlier in 2020, in anticipation of a move up to heavyweight. Blachowicz -- who will turn 38 on Feb. 24 -- has won eight of his past nine, including four finishes.

Power or Precision?
Legendary Polish Power 🇵🇱❤🇵🇱
They should name this fight ‘The Experiment’.
Janek cala Polska z tobą 🇵🇱 👊
Jan Błachowicz - Polish Power 🇵🇱💪
Now this is true power vs precision. Costa is a volume puncher, but Jan is true power. Izzy in 5
Wow this is actually a great video. The production quality is great and I feel like you give Jan the respect he deserved
Yall act like jan is all about power ,but he is very skill as well
like for Jan
I love how they wrote ,Jan off as if he isn’t precise too . Seems to be a ko artist of his own .
3:11 why y’all doing him like that man 😂😂😂
Goose bumps can't wait to see this one, let the best man win
Man this is a great video! You got some good imagination.
People keep underestimating Jan. Can't look past Jan for Jon, we've seen how that turned out multiple times.
Man, I'm rooting for Jan.
This is going to be incredible!! I'm going with isreal only because I've always support him since early days, but the viewers are the real winners here!!
I live it when Ozzy does that boogieman face. Lol. Cracks me up.
U don't write off jan...he'll walk through that touch touch and put him on his ass before he can kick. This is a 50/50 fight for me. I can't see izzy knocking jan out. Jan by k.o or izzy by points.
Janek! :) :)
The key to beating Izzy is fighting your own fight (easier said than done). We saw what happened to Paulo Costa when he froze up and changed to a defensive mindset. Izzy is fast and has perhaps the most diverse arsenal in MMA. That being said, no man is unbeatable. Jan is smart and tough. Hopefully it will be an exciting fight.
