Now I’m going to take time to look after myself.”</h3> <h3/> <h3> “I’m not going to fight for a long time.

But I know what I can do, and I know what I can change in my lifestyle to make my body adapt to where I need to be. I’m going to heal myself up.”</h3> <h3/> <h3> Adesanya revealed he his team turned down an offer to fight Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 294.</h3> <h3/> <h3> “I’m sure they called my team up, and my team were like, ‘He’s not fighting right now.’ If I wanted to, I could. That would be cool,” he said.</h3> <h3/> <h3> “Four fights in the last 14 months, it takes a toll on your body,” he added, noting that he had seen the doctors and done specialist tests to get himself back ready for fighting.</h3> <h3/> <h3> “I’m just going to take my time to heal, and then when I come back, f**king run for the hills,” the two-time champion said.</h3> <div class="awac-wrapper"> <div class="awac widget text-16"> <div class="textwidget"> <p><em><strong>If you use the quotes from this content, you legally agree to give www.brila.net the News credit as the source and a backlink to our story.
