Israel Adesanya just defeated Alex Pereira to win back his lost title. Without a doubt, the middleweight champion should now celebrate his impressive victory. But is Izzy taking advantage of his time a little too much? The Last Stylebender effectively irritated a significant number of his followers by sending out an inappropriate tweet, therefore the question is pertinent.
The fifth pound-for-pound fighter and the Brazilian fighter competed for the middleweight title in the main event of UFC 287, which took place at the Miami-Dade Arena in Miami, Florida. Following defeats in kickboxing and MMA, Izzy finally exacted revenge on Pereira, his greatest adversary, which certainly put the Nigeria-born fighter on cloud nine.

All MMA fans are aware of Adesanya’s passion for Japanese anime and cartoons. The middleweight boxing champion is covered in so many tattoos that express his love for various anime characters.
The Last Stylebender appears to have offended many of his devoted fans this time around since they weren’t prepared for the sexually explicit post that Izzy shared yesterday.
