Israel Adesanya has shunned the thought of retiring following UFC Seattle. Adesanya clashed with Joe Pyfer this past Saturday inside the Climate Pledge Arena. “The Last Stylebender” had success using his range early on. When Adesanya got into a firefight with his opponent, that’s when he paid the price.

Maycee Barber’s team has provided an update on their fighter after a brutal night in Seattle. Barber shared the Octagon with former UFC Women’s Flyweight Champion Alexa Grasso this past Saturday inside the Climate Pledge Arena. In the opening frame, Grasso dropped Barber and instantly transitioned to a choke before the fight was stopped. As it turned out, Barber had been knocked out before the choke was even applied.

The Octagon returned to Climate Pledge Arena for tonight’s UFC Seattle event, and four fighters wound up taking home performance bonuses. The fight card was headlined by a highly anticipated middleweight matchup featuring Israel Adesanya taking on Joe Pyfer. The bout proved to be a wild back and forth affair. Adesanya got off to a strong start in the opening round and appeared to have the lead leg of Pyfer in all sorts of trouble. However, ‘Bodybagz’ took advantage of Izzy’s aggression and was able to score a big takedown and take full mount in round two. From there, Pyfer unleashed a plethora of ground and pound which ultimately led to the referee stoppage. It was an impressive win for the American, and a ‘what could have been’ loss for ‘Stylebender’.

Henry Cejudo wouldn’t bet the house on Movsar Evloev getting the next UFC featherweight title shot. For many within the MMA community, Evloev has been the rightful No. 1 contender since his late 2024 victory over Aljamain Sterling. Instead, Evloev didn’t fight all of 2025. He finally returned to action at UFC London on March 21, defeating Lerone Murphy via majority decision.

It’s safe to say that UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski and his team have zero interest in fighting Jean Silva next.

UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski seems keen on fighting Evloev next, but it remains uncertain whether or not Evloev will get the next title shot after a delayed process throughout his career.
