The fight which held at the FTX Arena, Miami, USA on Saturday night, April 8, was the fourth fi¥ht between the pair, with Pereira b£ating Adesanya twice in kickboxing before following him into mixed martial arts, where he took Adesanya’s UFC title with a TKO in November.

“This is a sweet sweet victory and you know I have a sweet tooth. The hunter is now the hunted,” Adesanya said during his post fight interview inside the octagon.
