Free fight: Ahead of his UFC debut, see why they call Israel Adesanya ‘The Stylebender’

This weekend’s UFC 221 event features the octagon debut of an undefeated middleweight who has obvious star potential.

Israel Adesanya (11-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC) takes on Rob Wilkinson (11-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) on the FS1-televised prelims of this weekend’s event. The Nigerian-born Adesanya now lives and trains in New Zealand. With extensive professional experience as a kickboxer – not to mention a handful of boxing contests, as well – Adesanya is a flashy and dangerous striker who has earned all 11 of his pro MMA wins by knockout.

This past July, Adesanya faced UFC veteran Melvin Guillard at an Australian Fighting Championship event in Melbourne. Now, ahead of Adesanya’s UFC debut, you can check out that fight courtesy of UFC Fight Pass in the video above.

UFC 221 takes place Sunday (but airs live in North America on Saturday due to the time difference) at Perth Arena in Perth, Western Australia. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass.
