Marvin Vettori is hot off of a win over Paulo Costa but it appears he still has eyes for Israel Adesanya. The two have been going back and forth for years.

Even after fighting two times, Marvin Vettori still has it out for Israel Adesanya. The Italian spoke with TMZ and gave the champion a stern warning.

“He's full of shit. He never gives me credit, but he knows. He knows what's up. I'm the only guy who's gonna beat him, and eventually, I will. It's just a matter of time,” Vettori says.

He continued … “I saw clips of that video man, he's full of shit. I'm gonna fuck him up next time I see him, that's for sure.”

Marvin Vettori will not let the rivalry with Israel Adesanya end. He believes he has what it takes to beat the champion.

The pair fought previously in 2018 and earlier this year, with Marvin Vettori losing decisions in both. He wants the trilogy and he's ready to fight whoever it takes.

“I'm just gonna fight the best, and then I know the title is gonna be on the way. And, if I fight [Adesanya] before the title or after, it don't matter to be honest.”

Israel Adesanya is currently slated to fight Robert Whittaker in early 2022 so Marvin Vettori will have to wait. He has been fighting the best at middleweight and that will continue while he awaits the trilogy fight.

For now, Marvin Vettori can enjoy being only the second man to beat Paulo Costa. Time will tell who he will fight next.
