The former dominant UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya believes that his ex-opponent Alex Pereira has the ability to take revenge on Magomed Ankalaev.
In March, the Brazilian lost to the Dagestani by unanimous decision and lost his belt in the UFC light heavyweight division.
“I am so proud of Pereira and what he has accomplished. It feels like I created a monster. He has shown who he is in two weight categories. I am looking forward to his next fight with Ankalaev.
I think this will be another tough challenge, but Pereira will cope. Because his first fight wasn’t a complete failure, and he is also getting better at a geometric rate,” said Adesanya on his YouTube channel.
