The Last Stylebender was asked a plethora of questions ranging from his fight camp, the unforeseen challenges that he may face against Whittaker and how he plans on tackling them.
Adesanya is a crafty striker - quite possibly the best in the world right now - but does he think he will be up against something he hasn’t come across in his entire career when he faces Whittaker?
Adesanya is confident in his abilities and feels that he can pick apart Whittaker with ease.
The tale of the tape clearly gives Adesanya the height and reach advantage and the Interim Middleweight Champion opined that his large frame would certainly cause Whittaker some problems.
Whittaker was asked about possibly experiencing some ring rust when he steps into the Octagon again after more than a year. The Reaper stated that he has constantly kept himself active while being out of action and that ring rust shouldn’t be an issue for him.
Adesanya commented on Whittaker’s statement and claimed that there is a big difference between sparring in front of 50 people and fighting amid 60,000 fans inside a packed arena.
Adesanya also revealed that his camp is set up in Auckland, which is where he has done a majority of his training for the fight. He also opened up about the electric atmosphere at City Kickboxing in Auckland.
