Adesanya explained why he came to the press conference in a collar

Israel Adesanya, former UFC middleweight champion, explained why he came to the press conference ahead of UFC 287 wearing a collar.

"I am a dog. It's a dog collar and I'm about to be unleashed. N *** titles and belts. I'm going to rip my opponent's head off. I'm a dog and I'm about to be given free rein."

Recall that the UFC 287 tournament will be held on April 9 in Miami and will be headed by Adesanya's rematch with Alex Pereira.
