UFC 276: What was said?
Israel Adesanya: “Jared is a fighter; I call him the dark horse of the division.
“He was in the heavyweight division, then went down to the light heavyweight division, and now he’s in the middleweight division – so he has a lot of power in his hands.
“Through his skills he has dealt with a lot of people, but a lot of people are not me.
“Styles make fights, and I’m the elementalist, so our duel won’t go all the way.
“He will be choked or stunned.”
