Israel Adesanya has been told he is a "boring" UFC champion for not seeking the finish in his recent fights.
Both of middleweight champion Adesanya's past two title defences have come by decision wins. 'The Last Stylebender' went all five rounds with bitter rival Robert Whittaker in February and won a lopsided decision against Marvin Vettori last June.
Adesanya has been criticised by some fans for being comfortable with going the distance when he could instead try and finish his opponents. Middleweight prospect Joseph Holmes has labelled Adesanya as "boring" but can understand why he fights the way he does.
