Now that the fight’s over, Israel Adesanya isn’t afraid to admit that his UFC 234 matchup with the legendary Anderson Silva brought out the fan in him.
If you thought it was cool to see the greatest striker of his generation square off against the man many believe will be the one who is in the process of taking over that mantle, well, imagine what it must be like to actually be in there.
That’s why Adesanya’s not afraid to admit he’s already watched the film of his unanimous decision victory over Silva in the main event of the show in Melbourne, Australia, more than once, but that he’s probably going to watch it more than any fight he ever has in the UFC.
