Summary
Israel Adesanya's fight with Dricus du Plessis at UFC 305 was the first all-African title bout in UFC history. After the fight Du Plessi gave Adesanya his jacket, which is embroidered with a South African flag, as a show of respect.
The UFC is yet to host an event in Africa but the organisation says it is something it wants to schedule sooner rather than later. UFC 304 in Manchester last month took place through the night and early morning to serve an American audience.
