Israel Adesanya expresses disbelief at a group of women struggling to answer a straightforward question
Israel Adesanya was shocked to see that a group of women that appeared on a podcast were unable to answer a very basic question.
A group of women was on the Whatever podcast when the host of the podcast, Brian Atlas, in reference to a debate about trans women, asked the group 'What is a woman?'. None of them were able to answer the question directly. While some were unable to define a woman, others simply refused to answer out of fear of invalidating a certain group of people.
Adesanya reacted to the clip from the podcast, saying:
"How are a room full of women so shook to answer what they are?"
Take a look at the tweet:
Israel Adesanya could not understand why women were not able to define what makes them women or what defines one. Former UFC fighter Jake Shields also chimed in and replied to Adesanya's post, saying:
"They donβt want to be called Transphobic"
Take a look at the tweet:
Former champion Adesanya is currently preparing for his next fight as he looks to make a return to the UFC. The New Zealand native lost his belt last year to Alex Pereira, the only man who had knocked him down until then. The pair will now fight in a rematch at UFC 287 on 9 April.
Israel Adesanya reacts to Jon Jones finishing Ciryl Gane at UFC 285
Israel Adesanya watches all the major UFC fights with his friends and uploads his reactions to them on YouTube. So naturally, 'The Last Stylebender' was watching UFC 285 as Jon Jones fought Ciryl Gane for the heavyweight title. The New Zealand native shared a shocked reaction when Jones ended up winning the fight within seconds of the very first round:
"He can't, it's not even in yet (the guillotine). Is it? Oh what the f**k! That was so subtle. I wanted more but f**k that's impressive."
Israel Adesanya, along with most fans watching the fight, did not think Jon Jones had his hand under Ciryl Gane's chin and hence would not be able to execute the guillotine. However, Adesanya's reaction was the same as every fight fan when Gane tapped, not knowing how Jones managed to secure a guillotine choke while on his knees.
