Pereira: Adesanya and I could train together

UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira shared his thoughts about his confrontation with the former leader of the middle division Israel Adesanya.

ā€œI feel that our confrontation has come to an end, although we cannot know for sure. If Adesanya and the UFC show interest in our fight, I will fight him, but at the moment I think it's over. I even think that Israel and I could train together. We're both experienced guys, we have similar styles of high-end strikers, we could complement each other in different areas of the fighting game.

If it comes to a fight, so be it, but Iā€™m no longer chasing this match. So I would definitely train with him. Right now I donā€™t have the feeling that we will ever fight again,ā€ Pereira said.

Let us remember that Pereira and Adesanya had two fights each in MMA and kickboxing, three of which ended in favor of the Brazilian.
