Adesanya was asked whether he would choose moving up to the Light Heavyweight or Heavyweight division if he was given the option.
The Last Stylebender said that he would like to bypass the Light Heavyweight division and fight against the 205+ pounders while singling out Miocic as the man who he would like to go up against.

He added,
Adesanya agreed with his coach by saying,
The undefeated Middleweight is scheduled to take on Robert Whittaker for the undisputed Middleweight strap at UFC 243 in Melbourne, Australia on October 6th.
While we can see Adesanya move up for a big super fight at the Heavyweight division, the young and talented fighter still needs to make a mark in the stacked 185 lbs weight class.
His spotless record (17-0) will be on the line against the dangerous Robert Whittaker and if he wins it, he would then need a few title defences under his belt before he can even think of branching out for a big-money fight.
For now, all we should do is focus on October 6th and UFC 243 and for more news related to UFC, MMA visit UFC News.
