Contract:
Whether he wins or loses at UFC 271 against Robert Whittaker, the UFC will not have to worry about the status of middleweight champion Israel Adesanya for the foreseeable future. It was revealed that Adesanya signed a new, multi-fight contract with the UFC.
Paradigm Sports, who represents Adesanya, as well as Conor McGregor and Cris Cyborg, announced the deal via a press release. Adesanya’s new contract is considered “one of the most lucrative multi-fight deals in company history.”
Nails:
Having a “macho” mentality in the MMA community is not at all uncommon. From the fighters to fans and even the promotions, the sport was promoted around being as “manly as possible”.
So it’s kind of a surprise when you realize that many male fighters enter the cage with their nails properly polished and painted. Not that having painted nails makes them “less of a man”, it’s just not what you expected to see from the average MMA fighter.
Joe Rogan:
UFC star Israel Adesanya is clearly tired of the Joe Rogan criticism — ’cause the fighter staunchly defended the famous podcaster at a media event Thursday, and he actually used the n-word to cap his point.
Izzy’s passionate defense of the UFC commentator came after a reporter asked Dana White during the UFC 271 press conference about all of the controversies that surrounded the comedian recently.
Is married:
Israel Adesanya is currently unmarried. It is unknown whether ‘The last Stylebender’ is single or not.

One of the fighters that frequently has fans speculating about his sexuality is Israel Adesanya – and much of it is thanks to his style. Adesanya had everything from the pink hair to the picture perfect nails.
