UFC middleweight prospect Joseph Holmes doesn’t think that UFC Middleweight Champion Israel Adesanya is an entertaining watch.
Holmes is now only one week removed from his win over Alen Amedovski at UFC Vegas 55. He earned his first UFC win after dropping his debut to Jamie Pickett back in January.
Win the victory, Holmes moved to 8-2 in his professional career and is considered by many to be one of the top middleweight prospects in the UFC. As he moves closer to a potential spot in the rankings, he has a thing or two to say about the champion Adesanya.
During an exclusive interview with MMA News, Holmes explained why he doesn’t find Adesanya to be an appealing fighter to watch.
“Israel’s kind of a point fighter, he doesn’t really look for finishes,” Holmes said. “He has some finishes, but he ain’t looking for no finishes. I think [Jared] Cannonier has a chance if he can press him up against that cage, take him down and drop some bombs on him…I think if it goes past the fourth, Cannonier doesn’t have a shot. Izzy’s just ‘pick and run’, he’s looking to fight 25 minutes every fight. That’s just boring as hell. Nobody’s trying to do that.
“Compared to his level, he’ll face someone who is a C+ fighter and just go to a decision with them. That’s ridiculous. I’d like to see a change in the belt holding but I’m not there yet, so there’s not much I can do.”
Adesanya will face Jared Cannonier in the UFC 276 headliner on July 2nd. He most recently earned successful title defenses over Marvin Vettori and Robert Whittaker.
Holmes believes Adesanya is a deserving champion but doesn’t feel that means he’s automatically an entertaining product for the UFC. Depending on how Holmes’ UFC career plays out, he may get a shot at Adesanya down the line for a chance to prove his point.

UFC middleweight Joseph Holmes believes Israel Adesanya to be a boring fighter and hopes to see the title change hands.
Following a quick win over Alen Amedovski at UFC Vegas 55, Joseph Holmes got back to winning ways with a first-round finish of his opponent. As an upcoming prospect in the promotion, Holmes is working his way up to getting the middleweight gold. With a dominant champion in his division who’s lapping past the competition, the 26-year-old is seemingly not a big fan of Israel Adesanya.
In an exclusive interview with LowKick MMA, Joseph Holmes shared his thoughts on Adesanya’s point-fighting style that doesn’t credit the Nigerian-Kiwi with many finishes. Holmes hopes to see a title change at 185-lbs in the UFC in order for more exciting fights to happen.
“He is definitely a boring fighter,” Holmes said. “I’m not really interested in guys who’re, like being able to go five minutes, it’s perfect. I commend that, lot of respect for that. But wanting to go five five-minute rounds is not fun. Nobody wants to see that.”
Holmes is always looking to finish his opponents and as such, appreciates other athletes who step inside the cage with the same mindset. He revealed his favorite fighter on the roster, and it’s another dominant champion.
“I’m just the type of fighter that looks for a finish like I start the fight expecting a finish. That’s what I like to watch. All of the fighters I like to watch get finishes like my favorite fighter is Valentina Shevchenko. She’s always looking for finishes. That’s just what I like to see, and I know that’s what the fans like to see.”
“My division is inhabited by a champion who doesn’t like finishes. When I see that it’s just like, ‘yeah well’. Hopefully, we can get him out of there so we can get some interesting fights going on but Nah, he just doesn’t like to finish people.”
Talking about the upcoming clash between Israel Adesanya and Jared Cannonier at UFC 276, Holmes stated that Cannonier has a chance to snatch the belt from ‘Stylebender’ but also acknowledged Izzy’s abilities to keep the fight on his terms.
“Cannonier has a huge shot if he could if he would go for those takedowns off the cage and try and get him out of there. Israel just does a good job of making people fight long fights and that’s just not interesting to watch”

UFC middleweight Joseph Holmes talked about his most recent winning efforts inside the cage against Alen Amedovski.
Making his professional debut in Bellator, Joseph Holmes made his way into the UFC through Dana White’s Contender Series last October. After a rocky start in his debut against Jamie Pickett, ‘Ugly Man’ Joe got back to winning ways in his latest outing at UFC Fight Night 206. Taking on Alen Amedovski at UFC Vegas 55, Holmes emerged victorious in the opening minute with a rear-naked submission.
Holmes has been clear about his intentions of getting bonuses in his fights, and with his latest first-round finish, it may surprise many to know that he did not receive any kind of bonus. In a sequence that began with a straight knee to the head, Holmes sent Amedovski down the canvas and followed up with multiple strikes to secure the submission.
In an exclusive interview with LowKick MMA, Joseph Holmes talked about his recent win over Amedovski and explained what was going through his mind when he saw his opponent go down from what seemed to be a light knee strike.
“No, I wasn’t expecting him to drop from the knee,” Holmes said. “It was actually super surprising. I just threw the knee because I was told to, and I just threw it in that split second. The moment it hit him, I was like ‘damn! Did I really drop this guy? Oh shit, I’m ready to be done. Let me try and finish this fight.”
Bet he wishes he was with iridium sports management agency

During the same interview, Holmes was probed by the interviewer on whether he received any behind-the-scenes bonuses. While the UFC does make public the winners of the night’s incentives, many fighters have talked about getting paid more behind the camera.
“No bonuses, no behind-the-scenes bonus, nothing,” Holmes said. “They showed me no love for that performance, man.”
With a finish like that, it wouldn’t have been crazy to hand ‘Ugly Man Joe’ a Performance of the Night bonus. Regardless, the Texas native stays confident about his ambitions to win some down the line as he looks to continue putting on exciting fights for the fans.
Nothing ugly about that performance
