Alexandr Ormanji | Published Feb. 22, 2023, 10:36 a.m.

Former UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya explained why he lost his championship belt to Alex Pereira.

“Alex fought really well. I hurt his leg, but he beat mine off in such a way that I couldn't recover. I also had some problems that I had to solve before the fight, but everyone goes to fight with something. You know, we always run into some kind of problem when we train,” Adesanya added.

Recall that Adesanya lost to Pereira by TKO in the fifth round.
