While the venue of UFC 263 has not yet been determined, it will feature two championship battles.
The UFC confirmed during the UFC 261 pay-per-view telecast Saturday night that UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya will headline the June 21 show in a rematch against Marvin Vettori. Vettori was defeated by Adesanya in a split decision three years ago at UFC on FOX 29. In another battle, UFC flyweight king Deiveson Figueiredo takes on Brandon Moreno in the only championship game on the night. In their previous meeting at UFC 256, Figueiredo and Moreno fought to a majority tie. It was a Fight of the Night match, and Figueiredo was able to maintain his crown. The following is the rest of the main card: Demian Maia, who has claimed three of his last four fights, is set to battle Belal Muhammad in a welterweight match on the final night of Maia's UFC contract. In a light heavyweight battle, Paul Craig faces Jamahal Hill, who has gone unbeaten in his last four fights. Drew Dober also competes on the main card against Brad Riddell in a lightweight bout. The following is the official UFC 263 key card (the bout order has yet to be determined): Marvin Vettori versus Israel Adesanya Brandon Moreno versus Deiveson Figueiredo Belal Muhammad versus Demian Maia Jamahal Hill versus Paul Craig Brad Riddell versus Drew Dober
