In full preparation for the biggest fight of his career in just over two weeks, Maurício Ruffy has been finding the best possible ways to prepare for Arman Tsarukyan . Already very well adapted to training with Alexander Volkanovski in Australia, the Brazilian posted a video on social media this Thursday morning (3) training with none other than Israel Adesanya.
In the caption of the video, posted on Instagram, the man from Sergipe expressed his gratitude for the opportunities he has experienced. Both experts in striking, the two exchanged instructions, with the Nigerian teaching him details about blocking and distance judgment.

"Very grateful to God for giving me these memorable moments. God knows where you go and sees everything you do. Proverbs 5:21," the fighter said in the post's description.
Former middleweight champion (up to 83,9 kg) with five successful title defenses, Adesanya became known for avoiding wrestlers' takedowns and grappling through unorthodox movement combined with precise strikes on his feet. With one of the most dangerous grapplers in the division in his opposite corner, Mauricio should try to do the same on September 19th.
