Fans haven’t seen Israel Adesanya more vocal in any other fight week compared to UFC 281’s. Part of the reason is that his opponent, Alex Pereira, has had the better of Adesanya on the previous two occasions. Moreover, one of which was a devastating knockout. 

However, this time around, the Last Stylebender has displayed extreme confidence while going against Pereira. Moreover, he also stated that he had won the first fight, and he was winning the second one as well before he hit him with the KO blow.

Recently, post his weigh-in, Adesanya spoke to the broadcasting panel. Meanwhile, he was speaking about his previous two fights against Pereira, while looking at the fight tapes. Nevertheless, it didn’t turn out as Adesanya would have expected. 

The UFC did Israel Adesanya dirty

While speaking to Daniel Cormier (a member of the broadcasting team) Stylebender was breaking down his previous fight with Pereira, which was being played on the screen. Adesanya was stating that he had moments in fights.

However, the clip that was being played showed only moments where Poatan was having a heavy hand against Adesanya. Cormier called out the UFC for doing dirty against Adesanya. Meanwhile, the champ did seem a little bothered but said that he’ll perform and silence all the naysayers.
