Despite a double course in Spanish/Communication, I decided to take control of my dreams by heading into journalism. With a master's degree in sports journalism, I cover sports and football news with as much admiration for transfer periods, when a club must make crucial choices for next season.

Next February, the Frenchman Nassourdine Imavov will compete in the biggest fight of his career against the Nigerian Israel Adesanya at UFC Fight Night 250. A formidable battle awaits “The Sniper”, especially since the former champion of the category intends to leave the 28-year-old fighter on the mat as he recently confided.

A historic evening awaits for French MMA. Highly anticipated behind the scenes, the fight between Israel Adesanya et Nassourdine Imavov has indeed been confirmed for the start of 2025. On February 1, at the UFC Fight Night 250, the Frenchman, ranked fifth in the middleweight category, will challenge the Nigerian, double champion of the category. Adesanyawho remains on rank defeats against Sean Strickland et Dricus Du Plessiswill try to move up the rankings, before potentially regaining his title.

“We are already in it, we are very motivated, very focused and ready to make history”

“Thank you for the support. We are already in it, we are very motivated, very focused and ready to make history. See you on February 1st »recently declared Nassourdine Imavov near RMC. “Let’s fight this!” »had released the 28-year-old Franco-Russian after his great victory against Brendan Allen last September 3. Adesanya therefore accepted this fight, and has already expressed himself on this subject on his channel YouTube.

“It’s up to me to stop this”

The Nigerian, who will not fight for the title (the first time in a long time), said he wanted to put an end to the dynamic ofImavov : “There is always a referee, there are two of us inside, there is a crowd. It's not like fucking Apex or something, so I don't feel any different. I think people have ideas of how they would react, but they're not in my shoes. They're not in my shorts. It's fight night in Saudi Arabia, first of all. I still get paid. This is Nassourdine Imavov's biggest fight. It's up to me to stop this. There is no difference. »
