Last weekend at UFC 293, Adesanya lost to Strickland by unanimous decision and lost his belt.
“He was not like Israel, who fought Pereira in the previous fight. It didn't look like the usual Izzy, but that might have been because he was confronted by Strickland this time. Styles determine the course of battles, and this was an incredibly entertaining fight,” O’Malley said in a release on his YouTube channel.
