The North American news portal 'MMA Mania' confirms that the fight is in the plans, but there is still nothing officially confirmed by the UFC. The organization announced that the event would be held in the Middle East last week.
Adesanya is going through a bad moment. He has suffered two consecutive defeats against Sean Strickland No. UFC 293, in September of last year, and Dricus Du Plessis No. UFC 305, In August.
Losing twice in a row is unprecedented in the Nigerian's illustrious career. If his plans come to fruition, his next fight will be the first without a belt on the line in almost six years.

After the defeat to Strickland in ufc vegas 67, the Frenchman lined up Roman Dolidze by decision, Jared Cannonier by knockout and Brendan allen by unanimous decision. All of his victories were this year. If the plan is confirmed, Imavov will face the former champion Israel adesanya in search of accreditation to fight for the belt.
