UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya is always looking for the next big fight. He sees that potential in DWCS alumni Gregory ‘Robocop’ Rodrigues.
On November 12th, Adesanya will step back into the Octagon to defend his UFC title against a familiar foe in kickboxing specialist Alex Pereira. The two middleweight warriors will meet for the third time, the first two coming under the GLORY Kickboxing banner. Losing the first two meetings, Adesanya will have something to prove against Pereira despite being one of the UFC’s most dominant reigning champions.
Should he get the last laugh against his Brazilian rival, Israel Adesanya will be looking for his next big fight. Appearing on Jake Paul’s YouTube channel, ‘Stylebender’ revealed his picks for potential post-UFC 281 matchups with one rather surprising name coming up.
“A good fighter actually I want to fight is the guy that – he kind of just fought not too long ago, ‘Robocop’ is his name,” Adesanya said on BS w/ Jake Paul. “He’s a Brazilian guy. He had that gash, you cannot forget that gash. He had that cut. That guy. He’s solid, he’s a good fight. No beef, no nothing. I just think he’s going to come up to the top and I’d like to test myself against a guy like that.”
Debuting for the UFC in 2021, Gregory Rodrigues has gone 4-1 inside the Octagon with three wins by way of knockout. His lone loss came against Armen Petrosyan in February, though it was a closely contested split decision. ‘Robocop’ has since earned back-to-back wins over Julian Marquez and Chidi Njokuani.
Currently, Rodrigues is not listed in the UFC’s top 15 ranking for the middleweight division so don’t expect to see Israel Adesanya mix it up with ‘Robocop’ anytime soon, but ‘Stylebender’ did have a couple more names that could share the spotlight with him in 2023. No. 7 ranked Sean Strickland was one of the names suggested by the champ. Known for his controversial take on pretty much everything, Strickland scored six straight victories before falling to Alex Pereira via first-round knockout at UFC 276.
Adesanya also spoke about a potential clash with undefeated welterweight Khamzat Chimaev. While the Chechen-born monster aims to capture welterweight gold, he has routinely teased a run in the middleweight division where Israel Adesanya reigns supreme. As of now, all signs point to a 170-pound clash between Chimaev and Colby Covington, but as well all know with the UFC, things can change in the blink of an eye.
Gregory Rodrigues pulled off an incredible comeback against Chidi Njokuani after an early setback. This past Saturday, Rodrigues took on Njokuani in the co-main event of UFC Vegas 60. He went into the bout looking to add another win after defeating Julian Marquez in June. Njokuani got off to a solid start and opened a […]
Gregory Rodrigues pulled off an incredible comeback against Chidi Njokuani after an early setback.
This past Saturday, Rodrigues took on Njokuani in the co-main event of UFC Vegas 60. He went into the bout looking to add another win after defeating Julian Marquez in June. Njokuani got off to a solid start and opened a nasty cut on the bridge of Rodrigues’ nose early in the contest. But ‘RoboCop’ did well to recover and managed to score a finish over Njokuani with ground-and-pound in the second round.
During the post-fight press conference at UFC Fight Night 210, Rodrigues appeared to be in high spirits while talking about the gruesome injury.
“I [have] three eyebrows,” Rodrigues said via MMA Fighting. “The cut was bad, but the win came and that’s worth it. I’m so happy. I expected a fight like that. We are inside the UFC. That’s the World Cup. The best fighters are here, and I’m one of them. So I’m just happy and grateful for everything that’s happened now in my life.
“My wife is just a little mad, ‘Tell the doctor to do a great job. I will come back there,’” Rodrigues added with a laugh. “But he did a great job, man, so I will look OK.”
When Gregory Rodrigues got rocked, it looked like the fight might be over. However, Rodrigues not only got back, but he also went on to beat Njokuani. He gave his take on how he found renewed strength with some motivational words from his corner.
“When I finished the first round and came back to my corner, I was worried about the cut,” Rodrigues continued. “My corner was like, ‘Let’s move, let’s start touching him. He already felt your hands.’ Then when it started the second round, he started to do the same, tried to pressure me, but I said, ‘I need to pressure him more.’ And one part of the fight, I felt he was tired. I felt his breath and it was different, and I said, ‘Oh man, I’m here. I’m the Robocop and I’m going to kill you,’ and I started to feel him.
“So when I grabbed him against the cage for the clinch, I felt his body was a little weak, so I took him down and said, ‘I’m going to finish the fight.’ And I did. It was a big war. I love that fight. I need to watch that again, and it’s going to teach me a lot of stuff.”
