Newly-crowned UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya has all the makings of a superstar, and former UFC heavyweight turned podcast host and comedian Brendan Schaub believes ‘The Last Stylebender’ will rule the throne for a long time to come.
Adesanya, who KO’d Robert Whittaker to unify middleweight titles at UFC 243, is expected to defend his title against streaking middleweight contender Paulo Costa in the new year, and many believe ‘Borrachinha’ will be the New Zealander’s toughest test to date.
Below The Belt host Schaub, however, believes Adesanya will dismantle Costa with surgical precision and light up the Brazilian like a Christmas tree.
