Robert Whittaker and Kelvin Gastelum have their sights set on the same target: a rematch with current Ultimate Fighting Championship middleweight titleholder Israel Adesanya. First, they must deal with each other.

Whittaker and Gastelum will lock horns in the UFC on ESPN 22 headliner on Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, as they attempt to draw the attention of the man who now calls the shots in the 185-pound weight class. Meanwhile, Jeremy Stephens seeks to put an end to a five-fight winless streak when he confronts Drakkar Klose in the lightweight co-main event.

UFC on ESPN “Whittaker vs. Gastelum”—which airs live on ESPN at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT—also features a heavyweight clash pairing Andrei Arlovski with Chase Sherman, a middleweight affair pitting Abdul Razak Alhassan against Jacob Malkoun and a lightweight encounter matching Luis Pena with Alex Munoz. ESPN carries the entire undercard at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT, its six-fight slate of prelims anchored by a women’s flyweight battle between Tracy Cortez and Justine Kish.
