Undisputed UFC middleweight champion, Alex Pereira has plans to remove any doubt in his upcoming championship rematch with arch-rival, Israel Adesanya next month at UFC 287, explaining how he will defeat the latter for the fourth time across combat sports.

Slated to make his Octagon return next month in Miami, Florida – Pereira headlines UFC 287 against Adesanya, attempting to retain a middleweight title he won back in November of last year.

Striking Octagon gold within just four fights under the banner of the Dana White-led promotion, Pereira, a former two-division GLORY Kickboxing champion, earned his title assault against Adesanya following a trio of wins over Andreas Michailidis, Bruno Silva, and Sean Strickland.

And in devastating fashion at Madison Square Garden, Pereira managed to score a fifth round TKO win over Adesanya – rallying to clinch the undisputed middleweight crown.

Twice defeating Adesanya during their tenures under the above-mentioned, GLORY Kickboxing banner, Pereira first managed to land a dubious decision win over the City Kickboxing favorite – before stopping Adesanya with a thunderous KO in his native Brazili in a rematch.

Pereira and Adesanya sit atop next month’s UFC 287 card in the ‘Sunshine State’ – with welterweight contenders, Gilbert Burns, and Jorge Masvidal taking billing in a co-main event slot.

Burns returned to the winner’s enclosure back in January on homesoil with a submission win over Neil Magny, while Masvidal looks to snap a three-fight losing skid in his first Octagon appearance in 13 months.

Himself predicting a resounding win over Brazilian striker, Pereira next month in the ‘Sunshine State’ – Adesanya claimed recently that he needed to defeat the former, and that scores between the two need to be settled rather than kept.

“Just keep the same energy because I’m always beating him until I’m not,” Israel Adesanya explained. “So, I’m just going to make sure I keep beating him the whole way through.”

“I go in there and I don’t overthink,” Israel Adesanya continued. “I’m not gun shy. I go in there and trade with people, especially with him as well, so expect me to do what I do. Like I said, I have to talk because you guys want me to talk, but say less and I’ll do more. I promise you, I’ll do more in this fight.”

Adesanya, the current #1 ranked middleweight contender, is slated to rematch Pereira in an immediate championship re-run next month in Miami, Florida atop a UFC 287 pay-per-view card, attempting to reclaim his crown at 185lbs.

Headlining UFC 281 in the penultimate flagship event for the promotion last year, Adesanya suffered a late fifth round TKO loss in a rallying performance from Sau Paulo striker, Pereira – who managed to cinch undisputed UFC gold inside just four Octagon walks.

The loss came as Adesanya’s first at the middleweight limit in professional mixed martial arts, however, it followed decision and knockout losses to former GLORY Kickboxing champion, Pereira during their respective tenures in the squared circle.

Israel Adesanya praises Alex Pereira’s gameplan ahead of UFC 287

“I had some medical intervention [following UFC 281],” Israel Adesanya explained during an interview with Combat TV. “Not just the fight itself, but I had a pre-existing thing that I had to sort out before the fight. Everyone goes into a fight with something, there’s always something, [because of] the way we train.”

“The fight was going my way,” Israel Adesanya said. “He (Alex Pereira) hit my peroneal nerve so that’s why my footwork was compromised. ‘Cause I was wondering even when I tripped and did the backwards roll, I had to do a roly-poly, ‘cause I was like, ‘Sh*t.’ I just tripped over and it’s not like me. So, kudos to hi for investing in those calf kicks. Yeah, it cost me.”

Prior to his title loss to Pereira, Adesanya had racked up successful middleweight title defenses against Yoel Romero, Paulo Costa, Marvin Vettori, Robert Whittaker, and Jared Cannonier.
