"Dubs in the chat for Navajo!!!"

'The Last Stylebender's' post was a rare occurrence as the former champion usually refrains from social media during fight events and uploads his fight reactions and reviews to his YouTube channel.

Check out Israel Adesanya's post below:

Adesanya is currently on a two-fight skid in the UFC. The promotion's CEO Dana White recently uploaded a video announcing that 'The Last Stylebender' will go up against Nassourdine Imavov in a five-round main event on Feb. 1 next year. The fight will take place at the ANB Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

In the video, White also listed down several of Adesanya's accomplishments inside the octagon.

"We are going back to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on February 1st, live from the ANB Arena. In the main event, former middleweight champion Israel Adesanya will face top-five ranked Nassourdine Imavov. This will be the first time Israel Adesanya has been in a non-title fight since 2019. Adesanya is one of the most exciting and talented strikers to ever compete in the UFC. Out of 24 wins, 16 have come by knockout. He holds the UFC middleweight record for most knockdowns, second-most title fight wins and second-longest win streak. He holds wins over Alex Pereira, Anderson Silva, Robert Whittaker and the list just goes on and on."
