Adesanya knocks out Pereira in UFC match

With a knock out and fiery bragging arrows, sensation African fighter, Israel Adesanya outclassed Pereira.

Adesanya knocks out Pereira in UFC bout

Adesanya records against Pereira is not a perfect score and he knows it; it can never be a write off from the middle weight champ who has seen greater men with bloody noses and sucking on their breath in the UFC ring.

Daniel Cormier  (mixed martial artists and commentator for the UFC) says “I really do feel like they should do Izzy vs. Alex right now because I also worry about Alex with guys like Marvin Vettori,” Cormier said on his YouTube channel. “I think Robert Whittaker is probably the worst matchup for Alex Pereira because he does have the ability to take him down and kind of slow him down. The Izzy fight just kind of makes sense because they’re 1-1 and Pereira was actually fighting really good on Saturday night. It felt like he was going to run away with the win.”

“Last November, Adesanya got knocked out by someone who had beaten him twice previously in kickboxing. That’s 0-3 against Alex Pereira. So what did Adesanya do? He asked for an immediate rematch and proceeded to trade blows with the man who knocked him out twice. That’s why Adesanya remains an elite fighter – not just because of his talent, but because of his heart. And you can’t teach that.” – UFC

Cormier comment throws in a doubt to the intense fight that appeared to be going the way of Pereira but then a knock out leaves no doubt about a winner.

OFFICAL SCOREBOARD


Adesanya sparked off controversy after  the fight by sending out virtual arrows to Pereira’s crying kid in the crowd. He explained Pereira’s kid had done the same when he faced his Father in a bout.

Francis Ngannou’s made a strong panther chant as he watched Adesanya victory in the ring expressing satisfaction and approval for another African fighter in the UFC.
