Before the start of the last fight of the night, you could see WWE executives Vince and Stephanie McMahon in the front row, as well as Stephanie's husband Triple H. Just minutes before, the company's event, Money in the Bank, had ended a few blocks away from the T-Mobile Arena.

Although it was an uncommon sight, no one could imagine the tremendous spectacle that would follow. In the coliseum's music, you could hear the entrance music of the legendary 'Undertaker' and when Israel Adesanya appeared on the screens, he was wearing The Undertaker's hat and even carrying his urn.

Undoubtedly, acts like this demonstrate the good relationship between WWE owner Vince McMahon and UFC president Dana White, both respected members of the Republican Party, as well as The Undertaker's popularity.

TRIBUTE TO THE UNDERTAKER OUTSIDE THE STEEL CAGE, BUT NOT INSIDE

But if before the fight there was excitement and enthusiasm in the stands of the T-Mobile Arena with the tribute to The Undertaker, inside the octagon and during the fight, the opposite happened.

Israel Adesanya's conservative and counterattack style clashed with a Jared Cannonier lacking resources to complicate things, resulting in scarce moments of excitement during five rounds. At the end of the match, the champion won by unanimous decision 49-46 x 2 -50-45.
