But McKinney’s post-match celebration went astray. The fighter injured his knee after climbing over the octagonal cage.

“I feel great, I just want to glorify God. It’s an honor to be here,” McKinney said.

“I just trust my coach, after listening to his opinion, I am very satisfied with the result.

“I know he will come out. He likes to come out, wobbly and wild.”

Later in the main card, New Zealand genius Israel Adsania will defend his middleweight title against Italy’s Marvin Vittori.

Australian UFC fighter Alex Volkanovski predicts that this highly anticipated match will end in the third round.

“Because on the feet, Izzy was too much for him,” Volkanovsky insisted.

“Vittori, he is strong. And he will definitely bring a lot and make it ugly.

“But Izzy will only pick him up.

“Izzy’s defense is much better now than it was then.

“He was too much for Vittori.”

At the same time, UFC flyweight champion Davieson Figueiredo will defend his belt against Mexico’s Brandon Moreno.

The main card will start at 12pm Australian Eastern Standard Time, and the Adesanya vs. Vettori match is expected to be held around 1:30pm
