Israel Adesanya drops bombshell about unexpected DM from P. Diddy in 2023: "God be protecting me"
Israel Adesanya has addressed the ongoing situation surrounding American musician and billionaire entrepreneur, P. Diddy (real name Sean Combs). Adesanya explained how things supposedly played out between himself and Diddy.
Diddy has long been the focal point of a criminal investigation. In September, the 54-year-old was arrested and indicted on charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. Denied bail twice after proclaiming his innocence, he's behind bars in Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center and awaits trial.
On episode 164 of Joe Rogan's JRE MMA Show, Adesanya recounted the time he received a DM from Diddy. This allegedly came after his second-round KO victory against Alex Pereira in their UFC middleweight title rematch in Miami in April 2023.
Alluding to Diddy's 'White Parties' – parties wherein invitees would allegedly be ensnared into intimate situations and filmed without consent, Adesanya stated:
"I think he's going to sing. Also, I'll tell you one thing. God protects me. I'm so glad God protects me, 'cause look, if I got invited to the 'White Party', I'd have gone."
Furthermore, Adesanya indicated that partygoers were compromised via drinks spiked with "ketamine" or "horse tranquilizer." The combat sports megastar then revisited his DM interaction with Diddy and stated:
"I tell you a secret. It's just us two, right? After I knocked out [Alex] Pereira in Miami, we went to Too**ies the next night, and they were like, 'Yo. P. Diddy was in here watching your fight last night.' And I was like, 'Wait. Word? Crazy.'"
He added:
"And I went and checked my DMs. And I saw, oh, he hit me up. And he was talking about two months later I wanna do an interview or whatever. And I said, 'Here's my manager's number.' Bop, cool. Nothing ever came off it. But again, that's why I say God be protecting me. 'Cause who knows? You never know."
Adesanya and Rogan seemingly concurred that a targeted partygoer is tricked into an intimate encounter with an individual they might not know is underage. The target is filmed and blackmailed. Adesanya expressed his gratitude for having avoided a collaboration with Diddy.

Israel Adesanya on potential connection between P. Diddy and Jeffrey Epstein
Elsewhere during his JRE appearance, Israel Adesanya recalled speaking about alleged sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein in 2022. Adesanya had drawn attention to the late Epstein and his imprisoned associate Ghislaine Maxwell.
Adesanya insinuated that the system was using the highly publicized legal battle between Hollywood superstars Johnny Depp and Amber Heard to divert public attention away from the infamous 'Epstein List'.
Check out Israel Adesanya's assessment below:
Epstein-accuser, model-turned-model scout Lisa Phillips, recently suggested Diddy and Epstein operated in "very different circles" but had the same modus operandi.
During his conversation with Joe Rogan, Adesanya speculated that Diddy and Epstein were connected. With Diddy reportedly eager to testify in court, Adesanya foresees him potentially divulging vital information about other criminals. The former UFC middleweight champion said:
"He's in cahoots with Epstein ... No, they were friends ... That [Epstein's] really private rich estate in Miami, so they were all in cahoots as well. But again, I think he [Diddy] is going to sing." [1:16:16 of the JRE podcast episode]
