  • Israel Adesanya is a superstar in the world of MMA right now, but people tend to forget that he had three times as many fights in the ring as in the cage. Today we will fill this gap and show how The Last Stylebender made a name for himself in kickboxing, generated highlight reel moments and suffered the first and only knockout loss.

    Adesanya is a black-coated diamond. A real warrior, who was never scared or intimidated by the opponents' roaring powers , sizes , winning records or their camps' equipments.
    He is always focused on his goals.
    He is worth celebrating.

      We fans shouldn't join in this needless racism of a thing.
      DDP & Adesanya should stop it.
      DDP found it more convenient to be African based UFC fighter while Adesanya found his convenient ground outside African continent but , they both entertains us .
      Even if they eventually fight & either of them win , we should encourage them to see themselves as brothers & relatives & so make good friendship.
      This is sport and should be seen as such.
      It's no different from other sports like football , basketball, athletic, etc. Where the players remain friends after defeats or victories.

    This kid defines the word natural. He deserves all good things that come his way. Not only was he unbeatable but entertaining and, in the end, that's why true fans watch fights.

    • @ARR409
      @ARR409 Před rokem +4

      Ain’t Adesanya in his mid 30s? Pretty odd to call a grown ass man like that a ‘kid’.
      And most fight fans will say he WAS entertaining but is boring as hell now even though it really ain’t his fault. Anytime a fighter is technical or smart it’s boring but when they’re sloppy with no technique it’s entertaining. It takes two to make an explosive fight and it’s not the champ’s responsibility to make it a war. It’s his Jove to defend the belt. It’s the challenger’s responsibility to take that belt and if that means making it a slugfest then it’ll do.
      Hopefully Pereira brings the best out of Adesanya this third time and vice versa.
