It is no secret that if Adesanya wins the fight against Cannonier, his next fight will be against the winner of Strickland vs Pereira.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the pre-fight press conference for <a href=\"https:\/\/ufc.com\/\">UFC<\/a> 276, both Strickland and Adesanya stole the show with their epic exchange of words. The exchange was started off by Strickland who made fun of Adesanya for just about everything from getting knocked out by Pereira to painting his nails and j**king off to cartoons.\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/f1CBzWI6_GA\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a recent interview after the weigh ins, Adesanya was asked if the exchanges with Sean Strickland annoyed him to which he responded saying, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt would have been boring without him to be honest. Not annoyed, I meant it, f**king Jeff was lacking, embedded was lacking, and Frans too was lacking there are so many f**king cameras around how do you miss me smacking him on the a**.
