Adesanya recently viewed the most recent combat between Pereira and himself on his official YouTube channel.
In the video, Adesanya discusses what he did well in the fight and what he must work on to win the rematch.
Before the analysis, Adesanya commented on getting some key shots to hurt Pereira and was able to do some serious damage.
He said, “I want to get back in there I felt so comfortable in there like even these bits I felt so comfortable.
“It’s a long wait you have to wait for them to announce all this and then you know. I was like yeah yeah let’s go sure.”
The former Middleweight champion had previously succumbed twice to Pereira in 2015 and 2016 in kickboxing matches.
Since then, Adesanya was unable to exact revenge in their initial UFC bout, but he vows to make him haemorrhage in the rematch.
He said, “I just kept him down the ground I beat him up and won that round as well but around four I was attacking I was beating him tagging him.
“I wish I pressed more maybe I wish I pressed more because I let him recover around four maybe I wish I took him down again I think if I shot again the other definitely got him down early before the fifth.
“I was beating him I was on my way to beating him there’s that story there but I’m excited for this chapter.
“I like the way the story goes I made him bloody I made him bleed and can kill him
“I want to make it a blood bath like I get up and it’s just red from elbows and just beating him lumpy like, I’ll do that to him.
“if I just beat him from Bell to Bell, 30-minute ass whooping we’ll finish him somewhere in between all those three don’t matter it’s just like he who has a last laugh Laughs best.”
The main event of UFC 287 will feature a rematch between Adesanya and Pereira at the Miami-Dade Arena in Miami, Florida, on Sunday, April 9, 2023.JAMB Result
