Israel Adesanya is on the worst run of his MMA career. Can he turn things around against Joe Pyfer this weekend?<\/p>\n
On Saturday, Adesanya takes on Pyfer in the main event of UFC Seattle, looking to stop a three-fight skid and return to the mix at 185 pounds. Meanwhile, after suffering his first UFC loss to Jack Hermansson, Pyfer has put together three consecutive wins and now hopes to insert himself into the thick of the title picture with a win over a two-time champion.<\/p>\n
