My friend you never know how deadly a boxer can be, I can assure you that AJ can beat both Kumaru and Adesanya in a street fight, a boxer can never allow you to come close to him and get hold of him, boxers are very dengerious both in the ring and on the street
so for ur mind u believe someone like Floyd mayweather can beat khabib or Conor mcgregor in a street fight.... seems you don’t know what the MMA is about

Kamaru looks bigger and more built up than Adesanya. But I've always wondered why he is in a lighter weight category than Adesanya who is in the middleweight division? Congrats Kamaru anyway
He's not in light weight sir. he's in welterweight and Adesanya in middle weight. just a slight weight difference.
The body weight is not always by how big one looks but by bone mass at times... u might be lanky and have bigger or thicker bone than that person that looks chubby... hence the weight difference.

Congratulations Kamaru
Thank you For putting Nigeria in Positive Light internationally!, The last few weeks have not been easy for Nigerians Abroad!

What does this have to do with Nigerians abroad? I am abroad and I go around with a tag on my head that I am Nigerian. And even when I do identify myself as one, I do not carry the burden of misdeeds of very few in a country of 200 million. Don't let them control your mind.

Your body mass alone does not determine your weight,height too is a factor,tall people tend to have a lot of weight.Kamaru with his big body and less height is 77kg while Israel with small body and longer height is 83kg.

So, that No1 didn't tell you anything about Yorubas?

Now, maybe you are not a student of History. As such, I'll pardon your ignorance.
Benin was coined from " Ile Ibinu"
People missed the word and it became Benin.

grin Kikikikiki, Ask me why I'm laughing? Because many racist white folks on MMA pages were saying thrash about Usman and his accomplishment, and saying he would lose badly. Another win. Another title defense. Dem go dey cry now. Racism doesn't pay grin
UFC fans in the US are some of the most racist people I have seen. You should see how they trash Israel too.

Yes, I expected that you would come back and say this. As I said, you are the one in need of a history lesson. Here goes:

1. Land of Benin was always known as igodomigodo

2. A prince from Ife visited and settled in igodomigodo for a short while

3. He left in anger naming it ile ibinu

You are yet to show how ile ibinu connects to your point that Edo is part of Yoruba land.

I honestly dont expect a logical response from you.

Just got off Twitter now after seeing the hate from those American peeps on Usman. They say he's boring and all that and they're trying to take the shine off his victory.

But when you're the Champ, the only thing you should concern yourself with is retaining your belt. Every other thing is secondary. Entertainment is for WWE. This is serious business.

It's the job of the Challenger to bring on the fight and put the Champ on the defense. You don't expect Kamaru to go all out and expose himself. He isn't stupid.

So yes, the fight was boring but the belt hasn't switched hands. Haters can hate. Nobody cares. Kamaru remains the CHAMP!! cool cool

If Kamaru fought like Jackie Chan in that match, they'll still complain about something. The fact that he's black is what's pissing them off. But if it's your time, its your time n no one can take your shine.
