    Adesanya has now extended his winning streak to 18 straight wins.

    An Africa Giant Israel Adesanya Becomes The Undisputed Middleweight Champion Of The World. Israel Adesanya, otherwise known as The Last Stylebender, sent shockwaves throughout the UFC with his stunning knockout of Robert Whittaker in the second round of their championship fight on October 6th. What made this nail-biting victory even more impressive is that it took Israel only seven fights and less than two years to win the middleweight title.

    Israel’s domination of Whittaker earned him the Performance of the Night honors along with a very cozy $50,000 prize — though whether it was riches or outwitting his opponent that served as Israel’s main motivation, we may never know for certain! It was a glorious night for Israel and all fans of MMA alike, sealed in history as an unforgettable example of grit, determination and athleticism.

    Israel Adesanya, a native of Nigeria and former kickboxer, cemented his place in the UFC hall of fame after knocking out Australian Robert Whittaker in Round 2 of their UFC 243 matchup. Israel’s victory at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium extended his winning streak to 18 – 11 of which came prior to his UFC debut. How Israel made it to the top is nothing short of remarkable – after winning the interim middleweight title in Atlanta in April UFC fight, against Kelvin Gastelum at UFC 236, Israel was determined to become undisputed champion, and he proved himself by serving up a knockout to Whittaker in front of over 57,000 people in the crowd.

    Israel then prostrated with his belt presented to his parents – an even more remarkable end to an already-impressive chapter in Israel’s irreplaceable career as a kickboxer turned MMA fighter. Now that Israel has achieved undisputed stardom, it will be interesting for fans (and opponents!) to see what comes next in Israel’s career!
