First Anthony Joshua now Israel Mobolaji Adesanya, Nigerians just can not stop shinning and we must celebrate every single one that is doing us proud

(born July 22, 1989) He is a Nigerian-born New Zealander mixed martial artist and former kickboxer currently fighting in the Middleweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship. In October 2017, he was ranked #6 middleweight worldwide in kickboxing by CombatPress.com. As of July 26, 2018, he is #9 in the official UFC middleweight rankings

Adesanya was born in Lagos, Nigeria. In 2001 (aged 11 or 12) he moved to Whanganui, New Zealand and started training kickboxing. Adesanya amassed a professional record of 32-0 prior to moving and fighting in China.

In December 2017, it was announced that Adesanya had signed with the UFC. He made his debut against Rob Wilkinson on February 11, 2018 at UFC 221. He won the fight via TKO in the second round. This win earned him the Performance of the Night bonus.

Adesanya faced Brad Tavares on July 6, 2018 at The Ultimate Fighter 27 Finale. Adesanya won the fight via unanimous decision. This win earned him the Performance of the Night award.
