Chris Curtis Isn’t Sure Israel Adesanya Could Ever Beat Alex Pereira
Some people thought the stoppage was a little premature but either way, fans are giving props to Pereira. He is fairly new to MMA but has proven that he is unstoppable when it comes to fighting Adesanya. Another UFC fighter, Chris Curtis isn’t sure Adesanya will ever get past Pereira.
“I actually feel bad for Izzy, like bro you have your own personal boogeyman, like, how many times can you do everything right? The dudes like in the last second, ‘I win’,” he said in an interview with Helen Yee. “He was winning the fight, well I thought we would have been four rounds the one. He was two minutes from retaining his title and Pereira does it again. You’ve got your own personal f–king boogeyman and that is miserable.”
Adesanya has expressed interest in a rematch and had said that he would fight Pereira as many times as it takes to beat him. Curtis thinks that point in time might never come.
“At that point, you just have to poison him,” he said. “Because like you can’t defeat him in one-on-one combat.”
Curtis is currently ranked fourteen in the middleweight division and could potentially see himself up against either Pereira or Adesanya in the future.
