MMA fighter Corey Anderson commented on the defeat of Israel Adesanya in a duel with Alex Pereira.
“It shocked me. Adesanya has more fights in the UFC and has fought guys with higher levels. Adesanya saw a little of everything. The guys have their own history, so Israel had to know how to act and what to expect from the opponent. I thought that he would withstand the assault and do his job. It sucks, but I'm sure Adesanya will regain the title in a rematch."
Recall that Adesanya lost ahead of schedule to Pereira in the main fight of UFC 281.
