UFC Middleweight Champion Alex Pereira sure that the former title holder Israel Adesanya is under very serious pressure ahead of their rematch, which will take place on the night of April 9 at UFC 287 in Miami.

“Adesanya quickly agreed to have a rematch with me, and it shows that he wants to end this as soon as possible, put an end to everything. Like, let me fight this guy again, and no matter what happens, at least I will continue to live my life in peace.

In the depths of his soul, he remembers that he lost to me three times. Therefore, he is under much more pressure than I am, ”Bloody Elbow quotes Pereira.

Recall that in November last year, Pereira defeated Adesanya by technical knockout in the fifth round and won the belt. Before that, the Brazilian beat the New Zealander twice in kickboxing.
