O 'career hiatus' announced by Israel adesanya after the defeat and loss of belt to Sean Strickland No. UFC 293, in September, may be close to ending much sooner than expected. The former middleweight champion (up to 83,9 kg) stirred up social media last Wednesday night (31) by giving a possible indication of participation in the UFC 300, albeit in an enigmatic way.

Using the 'Stories' tool, 'Instagram', 'Izzy' shared an image of King Leonidas, with the title of the film '300' highlighted, which many fans believe to be a clear allusion to the UFC 300, an event that takes place on April 13th and does not yet have a confirmed main fight. Regarding the image, the former champion left an enigmatic message.

“The gods must be crazy,” wrote the Nigerian.

Among several possibilities, one of the fights speculated by fans and the MMA community in general to occupy the main position in history UFC 300 is precisely the trilogy between Israel adesanya e Alex Poatán, current UFC light heavyweight champion (up to 93 kg).

Rivals from their kickboxing days, the two have already had two encounters in Ultimate. In the first, Alex Poatán knocked out Israel adesanya and won the middleweight belt. In the rematch, the Nigerian got revenge and knocked out the Brazilian to regain the title.
