Israel Adesanya channeled his inner Michael Jackson
On his Instagram, Israel Adesanya, who often enjoys taunting his rivals, recently shared a post. He uploaded a photo of himself along with a caption featuring a quote by Michael Jackson that goes, “Lift your head up high and proclaim to the world, ‘I know I am someone,’ and let the truth unfold. No one can hurt you now because you know what’s true. Yes, I believe in me, so you believe in you.”
This comes just ahead of his upcoming match against Strickland at UFC 292, where he’s set to defend his title for the seventh time. Adesanya secured his championship at UFC 287 when he faced off against Alex Pereira. Through this post, he’s underlining his strong self-belief.
Known for their outspoken personalities, both Adesanya and Strickland have earned reputations as fighters who excel in the art of verbal jousting. Nevertheless, in this post, the focus shifted away from trash talk and leaned more towards self-motivation, in stark contrast to the ongoing exchanges between Dillion Danis and Logan Paul.
With an outstanding record of 24 victories and 2 defeats, Israel Adesanya is gearing up to take on Sean Strickland, who brings a commendable record of 27 wins and 5 losses. This upcoming clash between these accomplished fighters is causing a major stir and is expected to become a landmark match in UFC history.
