This Revenge Is Sweet – Israel Adesanya Says After Knocking Out Pereira

Nigerian champion kickboxer, Israel Adesanya has described his victory over Alex Pereira as a sweet revenge.

Adesanya has been in the shadows of the Brazilian since 2017 when they first met in kick-boxing.

But one fierce punch from Izzy’s right hand put out Pereira’s lights and handed the belt back to the Nigerian.

Just before the decisive punch, it was looking like it was going to be a repeat of November when Pereira had Adesanya boxed into a corner, sending head kicks and body shots.
