Jared Cannonier is ready to take on Adesanya

“Emotions aren’t too different from normal fight week,” Cannonier said.

“I’m not putting too much extra pressure on myself. Fighting is stressful enough, if you will. Not that I’m taking it easy or anything, I work hard regardless. And I’m coming in with the same self-belief, the same confidence, the same energy – BDE – that I plan on using to get the win.”

There’s a lot of people saying a lot of different things, and damn near all of them are counting me out. Why would I even pay attention to what people say that’s on the negative side of me getting my win? That doesn’t serve me, that doesn’t help me, that doesn’t bring me any sort of joy, so I’m not focusing on that. It doesn’t hurt me. Those are just words floating out in the air.”

“If I could touch him once and put him to sleep, that’s perfect for me.”
