Adesanya expects a knockout in his fight with Pereira

UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya shared his expectations for his upcoming fight with Alex Pereira on Nov. 12 at UFC 281.

Israel Adesanya
I'm going to be focused and excited because this guy will do anything to beat me. He already beat me once. That's the reality. What's interesting about our confrontation is that nobody knows who will win by knockout.

Adesanya fought Jared Cannonier at UFC 276 in July 2022. That encounter ended with Israel winning by unanimous decision of the judges. He has 23 wins and one loss.

Pereira made his last appearance at UFC 276, beating Sean Strickland by first-round knockout. He has six wins and one loss under his belt.
