Israel Adesanya picks his fighter for the UFC 285 main event on Sunday

Israel Adesanya has been in constant back and forth with former UFC light heavyweight champion, Jon Jones for a while. In his latest video on his youtube channel, Israel Adesanya revealed his pick for the upcoming UFC 285 – Jones vs Gane.

Jon Jones will take on Ciryl Gane for the vacant UFC heavyweight title on Sunday, March 4. Jon Jones is a slight underdog in the upcoming fight due to his three-year-long lay-off after a closely contested fight with Dominick Reyes at light heavyweight.

Since then, Jon Jones was speculated to make a comeback against the scariest and baddest man on the planet, Francis Ngannou at heavyweight. Jon Jones took his time off from the sport to naturally bulk up to become a heavyweight and prepare for a return. However, due to Ngannou’s shocking departure from the UFC, Jones has been scheduled against a stylistic matchup in Ciryl Gane.

“I need to know more about Jones’ mental, his cardio, his attitude going into the fight. Because if there is a man you want to wake up and train to beat, it’s Gane,” Izzy said. “I’ll go with Ciryl Gane. I think because of the activity, to be honest, and who he is, I’m going to go with Ciryl but I won’t be surprised if Jones wins,” Izzy added.
