UFC Middleweight Champion Alex Pereira expressed the opinion that the former title holder Israel Adesanya will never be able to beat him, because his style is extremely uncomfortable for the Australian.

Recall that on November 12 at the UFC 281 tournament, Pereira knocked out Adesanya in the fifth round. Prior to this, the fighters met twice in the ring according to the rules of kickboxing - both times the victory was also celebrated by the Brazilian.

“Now I'm going to say something that I've never said to anyone. I have 28 amateur fights, 25 of which I won ahead of schedule. I lost three fights to the same guy. Previously, I could not understand the reason, but now I know. The styles just don't match.

That fighter stopped fighting. If I had 10 fights with him, I would have lost again. Adesanya wants revenge, just like Whittaker thinks about him. He just doesn't want to accept that he can't beat me," Sportskeeda quotes Pereira.
