Former UFC Middleweight Champion Michael Bisping shared his expectations from the upcoming fight between the current belt holder Israel Adesanya and Alex Pereira, which will take place on the night of November 13 at UFC 281 in New York, USA.

“This is a close fight, I don’t have full confidence, but I will bet on Adesanya. He is not just a favorite. This is his sixth title defense, he has cleared the entire division and he is one of the best strikers in the organization.

Israel is phenomenal. Reflexes, instincts, long arms and variety of punches - he has it all. He knows how to use his reach and speed advantage. And he’s great at defending himself from transfers to the ground,” Bisping said in an episode on his YouTube channel.

Recall that Pereira inflicted two defeats on Adesanya in kickboxing. In April 2016, the Brazilian won by unanimous decision, and a year later - by knockout.
