Middleweight champion Israel Adesanya is known for his exceptional striking skills. He has yet to utilize his wrestling skill inside the octagon besides his fight with Alex Pereira. However, Adesanya has stated that he focuses on the wrestling aspect of his MMA game. Fans first saw Adesanya’s takedown game when he sparred with Logan Paul.

For a training session, Logan Paul joined Adesanya, Alexander Volkanovski, and Craig Jones. Paul is an exceptional athlete, having competed in boxing and the WWE. He has proved that he is much better than what people give him credit for. During the training session, Adesanya used an inside trip to secure the takedown.

The middleweight champion must wait until the year’s third quarter to defend his title again. He will face the winner of the Dricus Du Plessis vs. Robert Whittaker bout. On the other hand, fans expect to see Logan Paul back in the WWE sooner rather than later.
