Israel Adesanya knocks out Pereira; regains UFC middleweight belt
Israel Adesanya knocked out long-time rival, Alex Pereira, to regain the UFC middleweight belt in the early hours of Sunday at Miami.
Adesanya came out for revenge against Pereira who gave him a TKO in the final round last November, stripping him of his middleweight belt.
But Adesanya bounced back from his last defeat to become UFC middleweight champion again, brutally knocking out Pereira in the second round.
It was the fourth clash between Adesanya and Pereira with former U.S. President Donald Trump, Mike Tyson and UFC president, Dana White, and a host of others in attendance.
