UFC 259 live stream: Light Heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz prepares for his third title defence - against in Yas Island, ...

The UFC 259 live stream is almost here, and we've got two title matches at the top of the card. Up first you have vs for the title, and your main event finds UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya moving up the weight rankings to challenge for Jan Blachowicz's light heavyweight championship.

Going into that match, Adesanya is the lighter of the two, hitting 200.5 pounds at weigh-ins on Friday morning. He was handed a box of pizza by his cornerman thereafter, so he's intent on putting on some more pounds. And well he should, nobody's ever won that title at this weight before.

Blachowicz was 205 pounds (the limit) at weigh-ins, but says he'll be at 220 pounds by fight time.

Nunes, both the UFC women's featherweight and champ, is the heavy favorite against Megan Anderson. Anderson is only 0.5 pounds lighter, but the odds are still stacked against her according to most — as Nunes is the best to ever do it in women's MMA.

The biggest UFC show of the year so far is almost here, as Israel Adesanya attempts to make history by adding the UFC light-heavyweight title to his middleweight championship. Standing in his way is Jan Blachowicz, who is on a four-fight win streak with three of those coming inside the distance courtesy of his formidable punch power.

However if 'The Last Stylebender' is victorious, not only does he become the fifth double UFC champion in history but he breaks Conor McGregor's record for the shortest time between a champ-champ's UFC debut and the night of their two-belt .

Adding even more excitement to the show are two other title fights, as perhaps the greatest female fighter of all time Amanda Nunes — one of those four double champs and the only one to still hold both her titles — defends the UFC women's featherweight belt against Megan Anderson.

Meanwhile, defends his bantamweight strap against to cap a hat-trick of championship action in .
