UFC 287 was an event to remember, as it showcased some of the most electrifying fights in recent memory. One of the highlights of the night was the main event between Israel Adesanya and Alex Pereira. Adesanya, the former UFC Middleweight champion, delivered a stunning knockout blow to Pereira that left the crowd on their feet. His post-fight interview with Joe Rogan only added to the excitement, as Adesanya’s passion for the sport was evident in his words.
Leading up to the fight, Adesanya had been laser-focused and tight-lipped about his strategy. Moreover, he was determined to let his fists do the talking, and that’s exactly what he did.
His calculated approach to the fight, combined with his unwavering determination, resulted in a convincing win over his opponent. It was clear that Adesanya had put in the work and was fully prepared to reclaim his belt.
With this victory, Adesanya put an end to one of the most iconic rivalries in UFC history. Additionally, he had lost his belt to Pereira just a few months prior. However, his performance in this fight is a testament that he is still a juggernaut.
Adesanya’s technique and skillset set him apart from the rest of the middleweight roster, and his dominant win was a testament to his talent and dedication. Furthermore, Joe Rogan was very happy that Adesanya got the win, but some fans were not very pleased with it.
