Israel Adesanya Supports Alex Pereira Ahead of Ciryl Gane Fight

AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

Israel Adesanya has expressed his support for former rival Alex Pereira as Pereira seeks a third title. The two athletes share a complex history, having fought four times across two different combat sports.

Despite the rivalry, which Pereira currently leads with a 3-1 record over Adesanya, "The Last Stylebender" is rooting for "Poatan" in his upcoming bout against Ciryl Gane. The fight is scheduled to take place at the UFC White House event on Sunday, June 14th.

Adesanya compared the prospect of seeing Pereira achieve this milestone to "seeing the first person climb Everest."
