Israel Adesanya believes the UFC 322 main event will end in a stoppage.
Jack Della Maddalena puts his welterweight title on the line against Islam Makhachev in the main event at UFC 322 this weekend at Madison Square Garden in New York. While Adesanya gives Makhachev (27-1) due credit, he doesn’t think the former lightweight champ will be able to hold Maddalena (18-2) down for long. Adesanya notes that Dustin Poirier was able to get back to his feet and defend submissions despite eventually losing to Makhachev. “The Last Stylebender” believes Makhachev will be forced to strike with Maddalena at some point, when the Australian will take over.
