Israel Adesanya says he has found his motivation again after
\nfour straight losses<\/h2>\n

Adesanya expressed confidence that he can end the longest losing
\nstreak of his professional MMA career.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe just signed the contract yesterday,\u201d Adesanya said. \u201cFinally,
\nboth of them. You know, you’ve got the disclosed purse and the
\nother one. All I’m going to say is there’s going to be blood in the
\nsand. It’s easy to talk because I’ve lost my last four, but it’s
\nall good. There will be blood in the sand, and it’s not going to be
\nme.\u201d<\/p>\n

Adesanya has not won since reclaiming the middleweight title with a
\nsecond-round knockout of Alex
\nPereira<\/a> at
\nUFC 287<\/a> in April 2023. He subsequently lost to Sean
\nStrickland<\/a>, Dricus Du
\nPlessis<\/a>, Nassourdine
\nImavov<\/a> and, most recently, Joe Pyfer<\/a> at
\n
\nUFC Seattle<\/a> in March.<\/p>\n

Despite that run, \u201cThe Last Stylebender\u201d says he is enjoying the
\nprocess again and is eager to return to competition.<\/p>\n

\u201cI’ve missed this sh*t,\u201d Adesanya said. \u201cThe last three years have
\njust not been fun. I’ve been lost, so I’m found again. I just can’t
\nwait to showcase everything. Yeah, you’ll see. You know me, I speak
\nfrom the heart, and I don’t want to let this get bigger. I just
\nwant to show you guys.\u201d<\/p>\n
