Video: What does (finally) conquering Alex Pereira do for Israel Adesanya’s legacy?
It took four tries – two in kickboxing, one in MMA – but Israel Adesanya did it. He finally got the best of Alex Pereira.
Adesanya reclaimed gold this past Saturday at UFC 287 in Miami, where he defeated Pereira with a vicious second-round knockout. Heading into the fight, Adesanya put a lot of pressure on himself to finally conquer Pereira, and his post-fight elation showed just how relieved he was to do it.
For Adesanya, it really doesn’t get any bigger than scoring a win like that against your personal boogeyman to become the first two-time middleweight champ. What does this do for Adesanya’s legacy? And now that it’s tied 1-1 in the UFC, do we need the trilogy?
Our “Spinning Back Clique” panel of Danny Segura, Brian “Goze” Garcia and “Gorgeous” George Garcia answered those questions with host Mike Bohn. You can watch their discussion in the video above and check out this week’s full episode below.
