Nigeria fighter Israel Adesanya came out with some strong words after losing to South African Dricus Du Plessis in the UFC 305 at the weekend in Perth, Australia.
The fight was highly anticipated as both Adesanya and Du Plessis had a fierce head-to-head exchange before the fight.
Unfortunately, Adesanya’s attempt to reclaim the UFC middleweight title ended in disappointment as he suffered a decisive submission loss to rival Dricus Du Plessis.
However, he is not giving up as he intends to bounce back stronger.
“I’m happy I got to fight again, appreciate all the energy from you”, the 35-year-old wrote on social media.
“Congrats Dricus Du Plessis, thank you for your honest words and speaking your truth.
“No matter what, Africa won tonight! DDP, you have the torch…light the fire and inspire!”
