Alex Pereira's former rival praises him ahead of Jiri Prochazka showdown

Israel Adesanya recently cast his rivalry with Alex Pereira aside, after breaking down the Brazilian's upcoming bout against Jiri Prochazka.

Pereira and Adesanya have a long and bitter history dating back to their time as professional kickboxers. 'Poatan' got the victory over Adesanya on numerous occasions and did so once again in the UFC when he stopped the Nigerian New Zealander for the middleweight title in 2022.

'The Last Stylebender' would have the last laugh however, and recaptured his belt by claiming his first win over Pereira with a stunning KO finish in their rematch back in April.

Speaking on his YouTube channel, Adesanya praised Alex Pereira's ability and labeled him as a "special" fighter. 'Izzy' said:

"I'll say, Pereira is a special human being, not just a fighter, a special human being. I'll say that because I've been in there with him many times. He's got a special ability of putting people to sleep, he can do it to anyone."
