booking after it was initially announced by All In Sports
Management. UFC 305 takes place at the RAC Arena in Perth,
Australia, and is headlined by a middleweight title tilt between
Dricus Du
Plessis and Israel
Adesanya.

Santos will make a quick turnaround after appearing at UFC on ESPN
59 on July 13, when she defeated Mariya
Agapova via first-round submission. The 24-year-old Brazilian
has won five straight contests, including three in UFC
competition.
O’Neill, meanwhile, began her professional tenure with nine
consecutive triumphs. After winning her first four Octagon
appearances, “King” has dropped back-to-back fights against
Jennifer
Maia and Ariane
Lipski.
