Champion's story
   Adesanya became interested specifically karate, at the age of 10.  A little later, he changed his choice in favour of kickboxing. In 2012, he started to take part in MMA fights at the professional level. Israel was incredibly successful and soon became number one of the best fighters in his category.  Israel was signed with Glory Kickboxing in 2017. He has managed to compete in several tournaments, including Glory 34.

   Israel Adesanya joined the UFC at the end of 2017. He debuted in competition for the institution in the month of February 2018. Since the beginning of his career as a UFC fighter, he has managed to make quite a few impressive appearances. He has knocked out such notable fighters as; Anderson Silva, Kelvin Gastelum, Yoel Romero and Paulo Costa.

   In a September 2020 fight against Robert Whittaker, Adesanya scored a convincing win. The young fighter successfully proved his title. One of the most significant is a victory over Marvin Vettori in June 2021.

Adesanya knocked out Pereira

      The most spectacular fights in recent times. This confrontation kept the audience in suspense throughout the fight. The grand numbered UFC 287 tournament was held at the Miami-Dade Arena in Florida, USA. The event took place on April 9 this year, Israel Adesanya and Alex Pereira fought for the middleweight champion belt of the organization. Pereira began competing in MMA fights in 2015. In the first 5 years of his career, Alex won three out of four fights. A modest MMA background hasn't stopped the Brazilian talent from making it to the UFC in 2021. Not surprisingly, Pereira is interested in the league as a potential rival for Adesanya. This prompted the organization to give Alex big-name rivals.

   Last November, Adesanya and Pereira clashed for the first time in mixed martial arts. The long-awaited fight lasted a little less than five full rounds. Alex had difficulties, he missed some really hard shots. However, towards the end, he managed to knock out Israel.

   Pereira was predicted to become the favourite for the second fight with Adesanya. The Brazilian proved that thanks to his size and using all his physical strength, he will win the championship title, despite the fact that he is inferior to his opponent in speed and technique.

   In the first round, Alex fought very confidently. The beginning of the fight was not particularly impressive. In the second five-minute period, the opponents began to fight more openly. There were 40 seconds left before the gong for a break, and the fight suddenly came to an end. Pereira pinned Adesanya to the net and began to deliver a series of powerful punches, hoping to break through Israel's block. Adesanya responded with two incredibly accurate shots. Alex fell unconscious. Adesanya delivered the last finishing blow to the already lying Brazilian.
