Alex Pereira gives Israel Adesanya advice following his loss to Sean Strickland
Following his loss to Sean Strickland, Israel Adesanya has just one win in his last three fights. The New Zealand native looked lost inside the cage and had nothing going for him against 'Tarzan'.
Despite being rival, former middleweight champion Alex Pereira spoke out about the fight and gave Adesanya advice on what he should do next:
"Adesanya needs to take a break because he's a guy that, man let's not discredit him because he lost. He's a guy that I think fought four times in a year. I think he needs to rest a bit. Rest his body, his mind, to come back refreshed for another fight. And then chase that belt again and try something against Strickland. But with the style that Strickland showed, I think it's tough for Adesanya to get the belt."
The Brazilian believes Israel Adesanya needs to take a complete break from the UFC and reset his mind and body before he fights again. However, he also states that Strickland's style of fighting will be difficult for Adesanya to overcome.
