As reported last week, the UFC was targeting this fight. It's just about a done deal for UFC 230.
 
Brunson should just take him down and grind out a decision but instead he'll just go full Derek Brunson and get slept in round 1.
 
230 is going to be interesting for the 185 division going into 2019... Could be a huge win for both moving forward.
 
230 at MSG, aka Middle Square Garden, aka the Middleweight Grand Prix!
 
This is gonna be hilarious leading up to the fight

Derek "shit stained balls" Brunson vs Israel "you talk too much" Adesanya

Brunson must see some holes in his game and I think Brunson CAN win but it will be interesting to see how he executes it in there.
 
This one is really simple. If Brunson can get him to the ground, he has a very good chance of winning. If this fight stays on the feet, Israel is going to fuck him up.
 
Say what you want about Israel but the guy is constantly fighting and moving up the ladder. Hes had three fights in what, five months now? Im a big fan now.
 
If Adesanya continues to improve his takedown defense and sprawl, he should dispatch Brunson quite easily.

I'd argue Brunson is the best wrestler in the division. Stuffed all Yoels takedowns and scored 3 of his own. Israel will probably win, but only because Brunson becomes incredibly dumb as soon as the first punch is thrown.
