“Two-Faced As Hell” – Former Champion Rains Down on Israel Adesanya

Israel Adesanya’s new found rivalry with former Middleweight Champion Chris Weidman seems to have taken an ugly turn as the former Champion called Israel Adesanya “two-faced” after the Middleweight Champion declined to fight Chris Weidman and sent a soaring response in return. Soon after his win over Paulo Costa, Chris Weidman expressed his desire to face Adesanya and claimed that he has what it takes to beat the undisputed Middleweight Champion.

Weidman has been always good against strikers having less wrestling. He defeated Uriah hall who's as technical as Izzy, defeated Silva twice, and beat Vitor Belfort. @chrisweidman vs @stylebender makes sense.

Heyyy I just realized I have 2 common opponents with Adesanya…Gastelum who I finished. Then Silva who I finished twice. Adesanya squeaked by decisions on both of those guys.. Adesanya is just another Silva without the black belt in Jitsu. Easy 💴
