Israel Adesanya’s middleweight title reign rolls on after he successfully defended the belt for the fifth time with a unanimous decision win over Jared Cannonier this past Saturday at UFC 276.

It was one-way traffic for 25 minutes, even if Adesanya thinks he had an “off night,” with Adesanya earning a 50-45 and two 49-46 scores from the judges. While it wasn’t the most exciting fight, the performance was still dominant, but a contingent of fans heaped criticism on the champ for being boring and playing things too safely.

Our question: Why does this happen to Adesanya and not necessarily to other dominant champions like Kamaru Usman and Valentina Shevchenko? Our “Spinning Back Clique” panel of Mike Bohn, Matthew Wells, and Brian “Goze” Garcia weigh in with host “Gorgeous” George Garcia.

You can watch their discussion above and check out this week’s full episode below.
