Akinkunle Bolarinwa 


Former middleweight champion Israel Adesanya shares timeline for his eventual UFC retirement, the last style bender says he won't be around in the next five years. 

“I’m not gonna be here in five years”

He gave an insight into how much longer he plans to be active in mixed martial arts before retiring.

"Adesanya said. “I have other things to do in life.”

According to the man himself, we shouldn’t be expecting to see him beyond the next five years.

"I’ve been in the UFC five years, right? If I’m being honest, I’m not gonna be here in five years,”

At UFC 287 in April, Israel Adesanya will attempt to reclaim the UFC middleweight championship.

He’ll do so by going head to head with Alex Pereira, the man who won the strap from him back at UFC 281 last November.
