New camp revealed? Israel Adesanya arrives in Australia to train with Alexander Volkanovski

Israel Adesanya, the Nigerian mixed martial artist, has arrived in Australia to begin training with his fellow countryman and light heavyweight champion Alexander Volkanovski. Adesanya has been inactive since his defeat to Joe Pyfer in March, and there has been no news regarding his return to the sport. Rumors of a dispute between Adesanya and the newly crowned light heavyweight champion Carlos Ulberg have circulated, but no confirmation was given.

Whatever the reason for his absence, Adesanya's return to training is evident. His nutritionist recently posted an Instagram video demonstrating a day of eating in camp, which is the first indicator of his return. Adesanya can be seen at Joe Lopez's Freestyle Fighting Gym in Wollongong, alongside Mauricio Ruffy, engaging in sparring rounds and a dance-off.

Meanwhile, Volkanovski is preparing for his upcoming bout against Movsar Evloev at UFC 333 in late October. Adesanya, who is 37 years old, has hinted that pride may be the only thing keeping him from retiring at this stage. After suffering two consecutive knockout losses, it remains to be seen if he can come back and finish strong.
