“I will support Adesanya, but I will assume that Pereira can crush the opponent again with cannon shots” – UFC fighter Alekseev

Russian UFC fighter Irina Alexeeva told that she would sympathize with the New Zealander Israel Adesanya in his fight with Alex Pereira but the Brazilian can deliver his powerful blow again.

Pereira and Adesanya will fight again on Sunday night in the United States at UFC 287. Last November, Pereira defeated Adesanya by TKO in the fifth round and won the UFC middleweight belt, which Adesanya has held ever since. 2019. Now the fighters will have a rematch. Adesanya and Pereira fought twice under kickboxing rules in Glory, then Pereira was stronger twice. First, in 2016 he won by decision, and in 2017 by a brutal knockout.

– If Pereira does the same, I think he will win. Although Adesanya is a specific tactician. I watched his fights, then read the comments: “He’s not spectacular here.” But Adesanya has been a champion for a long time. And now that they have a rich history of clashes, they have studied each other. I will support Adesanya, but I will assume that Pereira can crush his opponent with his cannon shots. Well, let’s not forget that not much time has passed since their last fight, and Adesanya has missed out pretty well. And then the question is whether he managed to recover.

Sometimes it even looks like you’ve recovered, and then at the weight race you realize you haven’t. And it’s too late, – said Alekseeva “”.

– Agree that psychologically Adesanya will not be easy, given that he has three defeats in three fights with Pereira?

– And this moment can affect. Here a powerful work on oneself is essential. It’s very difficult.

The UFC 287 tournament will be broadcast live by the channel, the main card broadcast will start on Sunday at 05:00 Moscow time. The undercard will be posted on “Match! Fighter” starting at 00:55 Moscow time.
