Israel Adesanya Says He Saved Middleweight From Alex Pereira

Adesanya claimed middleweights should thank him for stopping Pereira’s run at 185, arguing the former champion was “terrorizing” the division before they met. “All the fights Alex had before he fought me were easy wins,” he said. Pereira twice beat Adesanya in kickboxing and once in UFC, but Adesanya knocked him out at UFC 287 to reclaim the middleweight title.
