Israel Adesenya will make his sixth UFC middleweight title defense on Saturday, November 12, 2022. The Brazilian Alex Pereira will be the Nigerian fighter’s toughest foe. In kickboxing, the latter has twice defeated him.

Israel Adesanya first demonstrated his skills in a kickboxing ring before entering an octagon. The Nigerian, who was motivated by Tony Jaa from the film Ong-Bak, ruled this discipline. His first 32 fights were fantastic victories, and he finished his career in 2017 with 75 victories and just 5 defeats. The only person who consistently opposed him was Alex Pereira, a Brazilian. Never was Adesanya able to defeat him. Even worse, he was defeated twice by the South American, once by knockout and once by referee decision.

“This is the one war I have to win if there is one,”

On November 12, the two warriors will square off one more. But this time, Israel Adesanya is having the same success in an octagon. He has been the UFC’s middleweight champion since 2019 and has successfully defended it five times. He will therefore make a sixth attempt to risk everything against his former foe. This is why The Last Stylebender finds this collision to be so unique. “I can definitely feel it. My time has come. Everything in this training camp is different because of this. There are no defenses. If there’s one match I have to take, it’s this one “On his YouTube channel, he remarked. “It won’t be the same as last time. I’ve changed as a warrior. I’m going to enjoy myself. The ultimate objective is that. And I’m the best in the world when I’m having a good time “the 33-year-old Nigerian continues.

“You’ll see him start to fold in the first round.”

Israel Adesanya also thinks he will be the one standing at the end of the battle. “What matters is taking a killer like him down. With the pace we’re going to bring, I genuinely believe he won’t be able to keep up within the first five minutes, in the first round, or even inside the first three minutes. You’ll see him start to fold in the first round because he won’t be able to maintain that fast pace. I am aware of my maximum speed. He won’t be around for long. If every round of this fight ends with someone falling, you better believe I know who will survive. I am aware of those who will continue to move “said the man who has 24 MMA victories.
