The newfound feud against Jon Jones will only benefit Israel Adesanya, according to Joe Rogan.<\/p>\n

The new middleweight champion began challenging the light heavyweight champion as part of his hunt for the official GOAT status. The pair have been butting heads, only adding to notoriety of each fighter and anticipation of a possible super fight.<\/a> The MMA commentator Rogan believes Adesanya has all the necessary building blocks to become the UFC’s next major superstar:<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s special man. I think he\u2019s gonna be the next big superstar, I really do. He\u2019s got everything going for him,” Rogan said of Adesanya (transcript via MMA news<\/a>).<\/p>\n

“Spectacular talent, great personality. He\u2019s fun, he fights with as much skill as we\u2019ve ever seen a striker. He\u2019s Anderson Silva 2.0, he really is man. His striking\u2019s out of this f*cking world man.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rogan is confident that the growing animosity with Jones will only aid the rising star in Adesanya.<\/p>\n

\u201cUltimately I think it\u2019s good for everybody. I think that little feud between Izzy and Jon Jones, first of all it elevates Izzy.<\/p>\n

“Because all these people that didn\u2019t who he was like, \u2018why is Jon Jones talking sh*t to \u2026 oh look at this motherf*cker. Holy sh*t he\u2019s good.\u2019 And then they watch his fights and go, \u2018oh this is why Jon Jones is talking sh*t to him.\u2019 Cause he starched Robert Whittaker.’\u201d<\/p>\n

Adesanya claimed the middleweight throne when he finished Robert Whittaker by TKO in the main event of UFC 243. His second-round victory validated the talent of Adesanya to many fans. According to Rogan, his continual rivalry with Jones is also an acknowledgement of Adesanya’s skillset.<\/p>\n

\u201cHim and Jon Jones going back-and-forth is kinda f*cking hilarious. It\u2019s great for Izzy because if Jon is that concerned about him, everybody\u2019s gonna realize, \u2018oh this guy\u2019s for real.’\u201d<\/p>\n
