Israel Adesanya says people will remember Jon Jones , but not necessarily for the reasons the UFC light heavyweight champion might hope. The two have been going back and forth for a while now, and their beef keeps on brewing. UFC middleweight champion Adesanya (18-0 MMA, 7-0 UFC) had a memorable year, which he kick-started by defeating his idol , former UFC middleweight king Anderson Silva, in a passing-of-the-torch moment. He then captured the interim middle title in a “Fight of the Year” performance over Kelvin Gastelum . Finally, Adesanya rounded off the year by unifying the titles in a near-flawless performance at UFC 243, taking out Robert Whittaker in Round 2.
