Strickland (28-6 MMA, 15-6 UFC), who became champion by defeating Israel Adesanya, lost his middleweight title to Doricus du Plessis in a close decision at UFC 297 in January. It was a game I thought I won.
Costa (14-3 MMA, 6-3 UFC) will also be looking for a comeback. After defeating Luke Rockhold in the Fight of the Night war at UFC 278, Costa dropped an entertaining decision to Robert Whittaker at UFC 298 in February.
