Israel Adesanya knocks out closest rival, Alex Pereira in Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Middleweight on Saturday April 8 2023, at UFC 287 inside Miami-Dade Arena in Miami, Florida to retake the middleweight crown.
VerseSports reports that during the fight, Pereira was unleashing body hooks and a knee to the ribs on Adesanya.
Adesanya backed against the cage trying to protect himself, when the challenger threw a right hook out of nowhere.
The punch from Adensaya froze Pereira, the next punch dropped him, and he was out cold after a blow with a clenched fist.
Adesanya then celebrated by imitating firing arrows at his rival.

According to Adesanya he was ‘playing possum’ against the fence, waiting for a moment to strike.
He struck a clean right hook from nowhere, and it stunned Pereira still. The next shot was another right hook to put down Pereira.
Pereira dethroned Adesanya who is called ‘The Last Stlebender’ through a dramatic come-from-behind knockout at UFC 281 back in Nov. 2022.
Adesanya is now the champion of the UFC Middleweight.
