Suffers fourth straight defeat
Adesanya lost to Joe Pyfer via TKO (strikes) at 4:18 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Seattle.
Impact
Entering having lost three straight and set to turn 37 years old in July, it goes without saying this was a fight Adesanya had to have if he was to have any hope of potentially getting back to the top at 185 pounds. It was a competitive fight throughout, with Izzy landing a bunch of leg kicks to damage Pyfer, but the power and brute strength of the latter eventually won out. Adesanya allowed a pair of takedowns, and on the whole, didn't wear the damage from Pyfer very well. He was eventually flattened out late in Round 2 and finished with unanswered blows to the side of the head. Izzy's last victory was a knockout of Alex Pereira at UFC 287 in April 2023. There's no easy or obvious answer here as to what is next. Not a whole lot makes sense.
