Israel Adesanya not worried about adversity from last fight
The Australian Champion and the Kiwi Interim Champion will be unifying the Middleweight title in the biggest fight in Australian-New Zealand history. In a media call to promote the fight, MMAJunkie asked Adesanya about the fight against Whittaker and the Nigerian-born Kiwi superstar said that he can pick Whittaker apart easily:
He emphasized that his reach will be a huge advantage in the fight. He also spoke about when he got caught by Kelvin Gastelum at UFC 236 and how it won’t be a problem again:
He also stated that when he becomes champion, he will be a lot more active than Whittaker was.
Whittaker and Adesanya’s clash is less than two weeks away. They face off on October 5th at Marvel Stadium, Melbourne in a highly-anticipated main event.
