Former UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya is pushing past the pain—both physical and mental—as he begins training with ultra-endurance athlete and retired Navy SEAL David Goggins. The partnership has sparked fresh speculation about Adesanya's return to the Octagon following a difficult chapter in his MMA career.
Adesanya, once one of the most dominant fighters in UFC history, is at a crossroads. After suffering three straight losses, including a most recent defeat to rising French contender Nassourdine Imavov, fans and analysts alike have been questioning what’s next for “The Last Stylebender.”
His training sessions with Goggins—renowned for his extreme mental discipline and brutal fitness regimes—suggest that Adesanya is preparing to rebuild both his body and his mindset.
Adding fuel to the fire, Adesanya made a surprise appearance at WrestleMania 41 alongside UFC president Dana White. The cameo has triggered rumors of a potential crossover to WWE, a move seen recently with other high-profile fighters such as Ronda Rousey and Brock Lesnar.
Though no contract or debut has been confirmed, Adesanya’s unique persona, striking skills, and showmanship would translate well into the world of sports entertainment.
Whether he chooses to stage a UFC comeback, debut in WWE, or pivot to other professional ventures, Adesanya’s alliance with Goggins is a clear signal: he’s not done yet. Known for pushing limits, Goggins is likely to play a key role in whatever chapter comes next for the Nigerian-New Zealand star.
As Adesanya himself said in a recent post: “Get comfortable being uncomfortable.”
