Israel Adesanya, former UFC middleweight champion, gave his prediction for the upcoming bout between Sean Strickland and Paulo Costa.
"It's going to be an interesting fight. I'm guessing it's going to involve a lot of leg kicks, kickboxing, boxing. Costa will definitely get tired and Strickland will take advantage of that. To win, Paulo would have to be aggressive, throwing body punches, punching jabs. But he'd risk missing. So I pick Strickland," Adesanya said on his YouTube channel.
Recall, the bout between Strickland and Costa will take place on June 2 in Newark as part of UFC 302.
