Newsone reports that Israel Adesanya will look to finally gain a win over Alex Pereira at UFC 28, after losing the pair’s three previous clashes across MMA and kickboxing.
This online news platform recalls that Pereira took the UFC middleweight title from Adesanya with a TKO victory in November 2022, and the Brazilian also holds a points win and knockout over the “Last Stylebender” from the pair’s kickboxing days.
Newsone Nigeria reports that the Nigerian-New Zealander Adesanya was on course for victory in their first mixed martial arts meeting, five months ago, after nearly stopping Pereira at the end of the first round. However, “Poatan” secured the finish in the final round, to cap off his quick ascent up the middleweight rankings.
Before that main-event bout, fan favourite Jorge Masvidal will fight in front of a home crowd in Miami, taking on Gilbert Burns – a fellow former welterweight title challenger. Here’s all you need to know.
