Russian UFC fighter Irina Alekseeva commented on the upcoming middleweight title fight, which will meet Israel Adesanya And Sean Strickland .
UFC middleweight champion Nigerian Adesanya will face American Strickland at UFC 293 in Sydney, Australia on September 9.
“It’s a fairly ambiguous fight. Strickland talked a lot and, perhaps through language, he got a title shot. But we all know MMA is a lottery. In a rematch with Pereira, Adesanya himself unexpectedly threw a punch out of nowhere, and he definitely rushed into it. So I think anything can happen in this fight. Strickland’s problem is that Adesanya is a very sensitive fighter and it will be very difficult for absolutely all fighters to fight him, – Metaratings.ru quotes Alekseev.
Adesanya, 34, has 24 wins and two losses. On April 8, 2023, Israel knocked out Alex Pereira at UFC 287 to regain the title.
Strickland, 32, has 27 wins and five losses. American Tarzan is on a two-fight winning streak and in the last fight he defeated Abusupyan Magomedov by TKO at UFC on ESPN 48.
On the night of September 10, will broadcast the UFC 293 tournament live, where in the main event of the evening, middleweight champion Israel Adesanya will meet Sean Strickland. Watch the broadcast live on the federal channel from 5:00 p.m., “Match! Fighter” will broadcast the tournament starting at 01:30.
