Adesanya has spoken out about a possible foray into boxing

Former UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya has stated that he has no interest in pursuing a fight under boxing rules at this time.

"Have I thought about fighting in the boxing ring? I've done it before, I have a 6-1 record in boxing. It would take too much money for them to bring me back. I just feel like I've done it before, and now I'm in the UFC - they take great care of me here. Yes, there is a certain amount that will make me do it, but I don't think they are willing to pay me that much," - quotes Adesanya Bloody Elbow.

Recall, last September, Adesanya lost to Sean Strickland by unanimous decision of the judges and lost the belt.
