Alex Pereira Says He Saw "Arrogant” Israel Adesanya Crying After Their Rematch!

Welcome back to Fightopia, today on the channel we are going to feature Alex Pereira says he witnessed “arrogant” Israel Adesanya “crying outside” after their rematch. Alex Pereira claims he left Israel Adesanya “crying outside” after knocking out ‘Stylebender’ in their 2017 rematch. Pereira (4-1 MMA) and Adesanya (21-1 MMA) have a storied history having collided twice under the GLORY kickboxing banner. The Brazilian emerged victorious in both of those matchups, the second of which came via a nasty knockout (left hook). According to the former GLORY middleweight and light heavyweight champion in Alex Pereira, the always “arrogant” Israel Adesanya was seen outside the arena streaming tears following the crushing defeat.

“I don’t know if it is just with his friends, right? With the people close to him, (where) he’s that arrogant guy, that annoying guy. Because every time I met the guy, it was all that arrogance, that ego, he was always like that.” Pereira said in an interview with Marcelo Alonso of the PVT channel (Portal Vale Tudo). “Since our first fight in China, he was a guy who pissed me off a lot, from the weigh-in to the fight. Even losing, when there was the rematch here in Brazil he made a post that I don’t really remember, but it was something like ‘I’ll have to beat Pereira in his backyard and then run out of the favela’. It was something like that, right?’ [via translation]”
Pereira made his highly anticipated Octagon debut at November’s UFC 268 event, where he scored a sensational knockout victory over Andreas Michailidis. In other UFC news, Francis Ngannou estimated a $7 million loss by not signing a UFC deal, but ‘freedom doesn’t work with money’. Francis Ngannou has made peace with the next step in his career, whether that’s in the UFC or elsewhere. In other words, the UFC heavyweight champion won’t bend on his demands should he sign a new UFC contract. As he said Monday on The MMA Hour, he estimates he’s already left a lot of money on the table to get to this point.
