UFC 234 took place February 9th from Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Australia. The card took a major hit when the Main Event for the Middleweight Title between Kelvin Gastelum and Robert Whittaker was cancelled the day of the fight when Whittaker was forced to undergo emergency surgery for a hernia. So the new Main Event featured Israel Adesanya vs Anderson Silva. In round one Adesanya hurt Silva at one point and easily took the round. Round two saw Silva become more offensive and have moments where he had Adesanya backing up. Round three was exciting but Adesanya took it by landing more strikes and taking the decision. In women's action, Montana De La Rosa continued her roll submitting Nadia Kassem. De La Rosa was just too much on the ground for Kassem as most of the fight was spent there and saw De La Rosa switching from submission to submission before getting the tap.
