Adesanya vs Pereira 2 Predictions

Adesanya (23-2) has showcased his incredible striking prowess and fight IQ throughout his UFC tenure. A victor of 12 straight UFC middleweight bouts before his loss to Pereira, Adesanya will be motivated to reclaim his throne.

Across the octagon, Alex Pereira (7-1) is one of the most dangerous strikers in the world today. The former GLORY Kickboxing middleweight and light heavyweight champion is capable of delivering highlight reel knockouts at any moment. While Adesanya is the more seasoned MMA fighter, Pereira’s knockout power cannot be ignored.
