Adesanya predicts influx of Nigerian fighters into UFC

Alexandr Ormanji Dec. 27, 2023, 5:48 p.m.

Israel Adesanya, a former UFC middleweight champion, is confident that the organization’s roster will soon be filled with fighters from Nigeria.

“I like this topic. I can't count how many Brazilians are in the UFC, I would guess there were less than 10 Nigerians in the UFC or a little more. I'll tell you this when Nigerians start flooding the UFC with what Kamaru and I inspired... Game over."

Let us remember that Adesanya previously said that he had suspended his career until 2027, but later changed his mind and decided to return much earlier.
