Fighters do not like to share too much information about how they train for any contest. However, thanks to social media and the promotion of the event, we have enough information to see how Israel Adesanya and Alex Pereira are training for the fight.
From the limited footage available, Adesanya has stuck to his roots and remained with City Kickboxing. However, it appears as though he is honing his power. The New Zealander seems to be doing a lot more power work along with his usual routines. Therefore, it appears that Adesanya is leaving no stone unturned and wants to end the bout.
The former champion is also preparing his mind with a dedicated mental coach. Along with that, Adesanya continues to work on his breathing, which helps him in the later rounds.
Pereira, on the other hand, has taken drastic steps to defend his belt. The Brazilian has shifted camp to the Muay Thai capital of the world, Thailand. It is clear that Adesanya moves better than him. However, with the decision to improve his Muay Thai, it appears that Pereira wants to improve his movement and speed.
The Brazilian was already one of the best kickboxers in the world. And moving to SuperproSamui will only make him better. Based on this decision, it looks like Pereira wants to beat Adesanya at his own game.
So, based on the limited training information we have about both fighters, it looks like it is going to be an exciting contest.
