Israel Adesanya knocks out Pereira to reclaim UFC middleweight title
Israel Adesanya has defeated Alex Pereira to reclaim the UFC middleweight belt title in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) 287.
The bout took place at the FTX Arena, Miami, Florida, on Sunday morning.
The Nigerian-born mixed martial artist knocked out the Brazilian in the fourth minute of the second round of the bout.
The victory is Adesanya’s first-ever win over Pereira who defeated and took the belt off him with a vicious fifth-round knockout in November 2022.
The Brazilian had also defeated him twice before that fight at the Maddison Square Garden in New York.
However, in their latest bout, Adesanya demonstrated an improvement in his discipline which had previously cost him against Pereira. He had a laser-like focus throughout the entire blurry exchanges of kicks and jabs.
