add to his middleweight championship
honours . <script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:block" data-ad-format="fluid" data-ad-layout-key="-f8+6r-24-g7+113" data-ad-client="ca-pub-2676590700924448" data-ad-slot="5072745587"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script>
The Pole is bigger, more experienced ,
and older , but Adesanya had said none
of these qualities trouble him .

failed in his recent bid to join Conor
McGregor , Daniel Cormier , Amanda
Nunes and Henry Cejudo as one of the
five fighters in UFC history to hold titles
in two divisions simultaneously .
