Arguably New Zealand's best known athlete on the world stage is set to add another chapter to his already lengthy list of achievements.

UFC middleweight world champion Israel Adesanya defends his title yet again when he faces Brazilian Alex Pereira in New York this weekend.

The fight is not only a chance to avenge two losses to his old kickboxing rival - but to take centre stage, alongside three team-mates, at the world's most famous arena.
