Israel Adesanya was criticised for his "boring" title defence in July - but MMA analyst Brendan Schaub thinks the blame should be put on his opponent Jared Cannonier.
Former middleweight champion Adesanya made the last defence of his belt against Cannonier at UFC 276, winning a lopsided decision against the American in an uneventful fight. 'The Last Stylebender' lost his title against Alex Pereira in November when he was knocked out by the Brazilian after winning most of the fight.
Fans called Adesanya for to be stripped of his belt after defending it against Robert Whittaker and Cannonier because of the lack of action in the fights. But Schaub, who was once a top-ranked UFC heavyweight contender' thinks more of the blame should have been put on Cannonier instead of Adesanya.
