Fight fans aren’t pleased with how Israel Adesanya reacted to Alex Pereira’s triumph at UFC 303.
Last weekend, Alex Pereira defeated Jiri Prochazka via knockout in the main event of UFC 303. It cements his legacy as one of the all-time greats in the UFC, which is wild, given that he’s only been in the promotion for three years. As we know, perhaps his most iconic fights came against Israel Adesanya.

The two rivals have battled it out four times. In mixed martial arts, they’ve battled twice, splitting their series 1-1. Adesanya was able to exact revenge on ‘Poatan’ with a nasty knockout win in their rematch, in one of the biggest moments of his career.
After he reminded the world of that in the wake of Pereira’s win on Saturday, fight fans weren’t particularly pleased.
