The ‘Stylebender’, Nigeria’s Israel Adesanya, will strut into the octagon ring on Sunday, putting his unbeaten record and UFC middleweight championship crown against the hard-hitting Brazilian, Paolo Costa, who is also unbeaten in 13 fights. The fight will be staged at Fight Island in Abu Dhabi., Bas Rutten, a retired mixed martial artist, kickboxer and professional wrestler, described the Nigeria-born Adesanya thus: “The way he [Adesanya] is so elusive – so different, so effective.
Adesanya, known for his prose, in the style of the late Muhammed Ali, wrote on Instagram, after the pre-fight press conference, “the more I see him [Costa] the more I know. At least he tried to act with the theatrics in front of the camera, like always.” He added, “My parents taught me to return a gift if I don’t like it. They also taught me how to whoop ass with a belt. #UFC253 Imma whoop him again!!”
