Nassourdine Imavov is preparing for a critical matchup against Israel Adesanya at UFC Riyadh, which could propel him into title contention. Expressing excitement about the opportunity, Imavov noted that he anticipated this big fight following his recent victories. He emphasized his focus on personal performance rather than on Adesanya's past losses, believing that Adesanya will come into the match motivated and in top shape. Winning this fight is essential for Imavov as he seeks to achieve his goal of challenging for the middleweight title.
I wouldn't say 'surreal' because after 2024 and the victories I was expecting something like that. Even though I was expecting it, when I got the news, I was very happy.
The main thing it's going to get me closer to my goal which is to fight for the belt. I'm very excited about that.
I don't think he's getting older. If you look at the fight against DDP he was doing very well. In my opinion he was winning the fight before his submission.
I hope he's going to be in the best shape so I can beat the best Israel Adesanya.
