A lot of comparisons have been drawn between middleweight champion Israel Adesanya and the greatest reigning middleweight king and MMA royalty Anderson Silva. Although Izzy has shut down any comparison between him and his idol, there definitely is symmetry in their fighting style.

Latest to join this conversation is welterweight contender Belal Muhammad, who came up with a funny analogy to abridge the comparison.

During He quoted a tweet saying, “ Izzy is a prime Anderson Silva that watches anime”

Israel Adesanya is well on his path of potential GOAT status in the middleweight division, although he has a long road ahead before catching up with ‘The Spider.’

Khamzat Chimaev makes a bold prediction should he fight Israel Adesanya in the future

Chimaev has won all four of his fights inside the UFC octagon by finishes and has competed in the welterweight and middleweight division. The nature of his supremacy is reflected in a never seen before stat which shows that he’s only been at the receiving end of a cumulative three strikes in his four matches.

UFC fighters and MMA pundits have tipped him to be the only fighter who can derail the championship run of the UFC welterweight and middleweight champions.

Following Adesanya’s victory over Whittaker, Chimaev wrote:

@stylebender easy money for me, 0 wrestling. 1 round I’m gonna kill him.”
