Adesanya is just a step behind where he used to be. That slight step is making all the difference though. Might be time to retire <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/UFCSaudiArabia?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#UFCSaudiArabia</a>

Israel Adesanya is officially WASHED. 👎🏽 It was a great run he had but it's almost time to hang the gloves up. I'll never forget what you did and the entertainment you brought to all the fans IZZY. Thank you. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/UFCSaudiArabia?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#UFCSaudiArabia</a> <a href="https://t.co/maR6ppMRLT">pic.twitter.com/maR6ppMRLT</a>

THE DRAQULA 🧛🏿‍♂️ @MickeyDraQ

Israel Adesanya should just retire man 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

If you thought that Israel Adesanya was going to win then you need to get checked. Man is finished. Should probably retire and go full pro trainer.
