Não é segredo que Israel Adesanya é um dos melhores trocadores em atividade no MMA. No entanto, se engana quem pensa que o nigeriano está satisfeito com seu nível de habilidade na luta em pé. Sempre em busca de evolução, o ex-campeão peso médio (até 83,9 kg) recepcionou Maurício Ruffy na Austrália, na última semana, trocou conhecimento com ele nos treinos e aprovou a experiência.

In a post shared by the Brazilian on his official Instagram account, Adesanya made a point of praising him. It's worth noting that, like the veteran, Luffy specializes in striking and is known for his creativity and technique.

Thus, the Nigerian, when talking to the Fighting Nerds team member and observing his movements, was impressed by such naturalness and fluidity. This wasn't the first time Adesanya confessed his fascination with Luffy.

"I learned a lot today watching this guy. I like the system and the way he thinks, too. He conceptualizes things and makes it fun, like the child in us. Thank you so much," said the former UFC champion.
