This fight is crucial as the winner will get closer to a shot at the middleweight title. Meanwhile, Dricus Du Plessis and Israel Adesanya are set to compete for the title tonight at UFC 305.
Interest in this fight has increased after Allen previously made controversial remarks about Imavov during an interview. Recently, a video surfaced showing Allen brawling with Marvin Vettori, currently ranked seventh in the middleweight division, who was originally supposed to fight Allen earlier.
The Ongoing Feud Between Allen and Vettori
This wasn’t the first clash between Allen and Vettori. The two have long expressed their dislike for each other and were supposed to meet in a main event fight during a “Fight Night” card. However, Vettori’s injury prevented the fight from happening. With their paths crossing again outside the octagon, tensions nearly escalated into a serious confrontation.
