Former UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesnaja predicts Mexico will dominate mixed martial arts in the coming years

"A lot of guys in Mexico who did boxing will move to MMA. Because MMA combines boxing, jiu-jitsu and everything else. In a few generations we'll see a wave of Mexican fighters with Mexican spirit. You'll see - they will dominate the UFC. It's already happening, just slowly. I'm looking forward to it," Adesanya stated on his YouTube channel.

Note that Mexico currently has one UFC champion - flyweight belt holder Alexa Grasso. On the night of September 15 at UFC 306 in Las Vegas, USA, she will face Valentina Shevchenko for the third straight fight.
