Israel Adesanya says he wants to fight one more time before the end of the year: “Just fight for fighting’s sake”

Adesanya’s hope
“(A rematch with Du Plessis) will come later on,” Adesanya said. “Right now, after I just fought him, I don’t think it’s going to be immediately. I’d rather just fight, not really for the belt, just fight for fighting’s sake. … Even though I don’t have the belt, they still have got my name in their mouth. I’m still Israel Adesanya. For me, I’ll let them call me out or whatever. At the moment, I want to fight one more time before the end of this year or early next year. I don’t know yet.

“I’m just training, building up where we left off. I’ll get the call at some point with a few options. I think Dana will hit me up at some point. (Sean Strickland) is going to fight Du Plessis first. I think he’s next. So even see how that plays out, see how the Rob-Khamzat fight plays out, and there are some other young guys on the come up. So yeah, we’ll see.”
