UFC legend Israel Adesanya has explained why he is moving on from a potential rematch against Sean Strickland.
While he may be a former two-time UFC middleweight champion, Israel Adesanya is in desperate need of a win right now. He’s riding a three-fight losing streak with some suggesting that he is now past his best inside the cage. Of course, ‘Stylebender’ himself has made a career out of trying to prove people wrong.
One of Israel Adesanya’s most notable defeats was a pretty surprising one at the hands of Sean Strickland. Sean was able to drop him and defeat him to capture the UFC middleweight championship and ever since then, fans have questioned what would happen if the two decided to run it back.
