Johnson gave his prediction for Adesanya's fight with Du Plessis

Demetrious Johnson, former UFC flyweight champion, gave his prediction for the upcoming fight between Israel Adesanya and Dricus Du Plessis

Plessis

"I don't foresee Dricus being able to knockout Izzy unless Adesanya makes a mistake himself. But unless Israel has brought himself back to the level he fought Robert Whittaker the first time around.... this is a high-risk fight. If Israel steps up, can execute his game plan, and forces du Plessis to make bad choices, Adesanya will quietly win," MMA News quoted Johnson as saying.

Recall, Adesanya's fight with Du Plessis will take place as part of UFC 305.
