Marvin Vettori, the UFC's top middleweight, had his say on the future prospects of the organization's former featherweight champion Israel Adesanya.
"If he comes back, he's not going to win any fights. He won't beat any fighter from the top four or three fighters in the division. I also don't think he can beat Hamzat Chimaev. He will be knocked out. Now I'm going to be called an Adesanya hater, but it's true. This game is evolving very quickly. The level of grappling fighters is getting higher and higher and I think Adesanya will not be able to compete at the same level," said Vettori.
Recall that in his last fight, Adesanya lost to Strickland, giving him the championship belt.
