Former UFC Middleweight Champion Israel Adesanya shared his impressions of the fight between heavyweights Sergei Pavlovich and Taem Tuivasa.

“It was very fast, damn it. They just went into the cell. It seems that from the first minutes they decided to just kill themselves. It was a street fight. It seemed to me that Pavlovich would be a fighter, an MMA fighter. Okay, he can cut. They literally cut themselves bone to bone,” Adesanya said in a release on his YouTube channel.

Recall that the fight between Pavlovich and Tuivasa took place on the night of December 4 as part of the UFC on ESPN 42 show in Orlando, Florida, USA. The Russian scored a victory by technical knockout in the 54th second of the first round.
