Adesanya spoke about his preparations for his comeback

Israel Adesanya, former UFC middleweight champion, revealed how he's preparing for his return to the octagon.

"I'm working, I just want to optimize myself. To become better than I was. Compared to how I used to live before as an athlete, it's not even close to how I live now. I now eat breakfast before I start working out, eat some protein or carbohydrate food. I used to wake up, go to the gym, work out once or twice and then have breakfast," Israel said in a video that was published on his YouTube channel.

Earlier, it was reported that Adesanya's next opponent will be Dricus Du Plessis.
