@Jamedia66 @BankingStud @ufc Only you’re bringing race into it. Izzy was born in Africa. Speaks Yoruba publicly. Shouts out Nigeria every chance he gets. And even if he didn’t it wouldn’t matter. He’s an African champion, just like Brandon Moreno is a Mexican champion even though he lives in America.
@ufcGnome @BankingStud @ufc Doesn’t matter. Izzy’s full blooded African and was born there. Ddp was disrespectful, and deserves the ass whooping he about to get.
@Twaningira @BankingStud @ufc So what? He’s Aftican. Period. Izzy speaks Yoruba wvery chance he gets. He wears traditional clothes at times. His name is Adesanya. Regardless of who is true or not to their culture, the fact is that it was disrespectful to discredit his heritage.
@Bonzaiterraform @BankingStud @ufc Who cares if he lives there or not? Glover Texiera left Brazil and lives in USA now. So does Brandon Mereno. No one says that either of them aren’t Brazilian or Mexican. It seems that these types of discussions only revolve around African fighters.
