UFC middleweight champion New Zealander Israel Adesanya has spoken out about rumors regarding his queer side.
Israel Adesanya on Logan Paul's podcast
We still have a feminine side, and a masculine side. I’m in touch with both. You know, this is why online people think I’m gay, – it’s the whole thing. They see me in the cage with my manager all the time. ‘They’re always hugging and sh*t.’but I don't have to make a tough guy out of myself. But I don’t need to play a tough type, all my toughest moments can be found on the Internet
Adesanya last fought against Alex Pereira this past April at UFC 287. Israel won that fight by knockout in the second round.
In November of 2022, Adesanya appeared in the Octagon against Pereira at UFC 281. That fight ended in a fifth-round TKO loss to Israel. He has 24 wins and two losses in mixed martial arts under his belt.
