Israel Adesanya has some bold picks for UFC 294.
in the main event on Saturday in Abu Dhabi. Volkanovski steps up on 10 days’ notice to attempt to avenge a unanimous decision loss in their first meeting in February. “The Last Stylebender” believes “The Great” will be more confident going into the rematch as he is already acquainted with Makhachev’s skill set, while Volkanovski himself has repeatedly declared that he’ll be seeking a finish.
“I think he’s gonna finish him … Send him into a different stratosphere… He’s got the fighting spirit man. You’d be surprised at the power of the human spirit when you put your mind to something. If it gets to the fourth round and fifth round, watch Volk not get tired. I’m telling you; you watch Volk not get tired, but I don’t think it’s going to get that long. I honestly think third round, maybe even second round, but I think third round Volk’s going to finish him.
“That was what my gut was telling me, yes. But don’t be surprised if Kamaru takes Khamzat out in the third round. Because Khamzat, I think he’s durable. If he survives, I’m going to give it to Kamaru by unanimous. But don’t be surprised in the third round if Kamaru takes him out... I’m gonna go Kamaru UD or late finish.”
Adesanya also noted that while most of Chimaev’s previous opponents cowered under his initial pressure, Usman has long been accustomed to the championship mindset. According to the Nigerian-born Kiwi, the only condition under which Usman loses is if his gas tank doesn’t hold up with nine days of preparation.Kamaru Usman Believes He Would Be a ‘Nightmare’ for Sean StricklandUFC 296 Update: Cody Garbrandt, Brian Kelleher to Meet in Las Vegas on Dec.
