Adesanya makes surprise prediction for Sterling vs O'Malley fight

Israel Adesanya, the UFC middleweight champion, gave his prediction for the upcoming fight between Aljamain Sterling and Sean O'Malley.

“They can both hit and both can fight. I like Sean's style - the way he moves, the way he fights. It's nice to look at. I am an artist and I appreciate beautiful art. It's the same with Aljamain... The way he sticks to his opponents. Aljamain will want to knock O'Malley down and finish him off. Sean will try to keep his distance and fire punches. If he succeeds, Sean wins. My official bet is O'Malley's win. Sometimes you feel like it's destiny," Izzy said.

Recall that the fight between Sterling and O'Malley will be held in Boston as part of the UFC 292 main event.
