Israel Adesanya vows to ‘Butcher’ and ‘Beat the f*ck out of’ Alex Pereira in UFC 287 title grudge match

Israel Adesanya was caught doing a bit of daydreaming during his UFC 287 media appearance this week.

‘The Last Stylebender’ is scheduled for a high-stakes rematch with Alex Pereira, the man he’s failed to defeat on three separate occasions thus far. Adesanya will enter the Octagon on Saturday night for what he believes will be his last chance at redemption with UFC gold hanging in the balance.

Going into what he considers his ‘8 Mile’ moment, Israel Adesanya was caught doing a bit of daydreaming, imagining how the world, and himself, would react should he turn the world on its axis and dominate Alex Pereira at Miami-Dade Arena.
