Igbere TV reports that Nigerian-Canadian mixed martial art fighter Hakeem Dawodu earned his fifth straight win on Sunday after edging out Russian Zubaira Tukhugov at the UFC253 held at the Flash Forum on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi.

Dawodu’s victory came before the more popular Israel Adesanya knocked out his opponent in the second round.

Dawodu won the game after three rounds. “I thought it was going to be a good fight but as everybody can see, he was running,” he shouted after the win. “I promise the next fight, give me somebody that ain’t gonna run.”

Flying the Nigerian flag after his victory, Dawodu said: “They only allowed me to bring one flag, so I’m really sorry for not bringing the Jamaican and Canadian flags but you know what I represent.”

The 29-year-old said this was one of the fights he pulled off for “something bigger than myself – all my black people, all my African people, everybody that’s getting oppressed”.

With his victory, Dawodu moves to 5-1 overall in the UFC while making a steady climb towards the featherweight top 15 rankings.

Born in Canada to a Nigerian mother and a Jamaican father, Igbere TV reports that Mean Hakeem as he is widely called identifies with all of his roots.

Other Nigerians in the UFC are Kamaru Usman (welterweight), Sodiq Yusuff (featherweight) and Kennedy Nzechukwu (heavyweight).

Why didn't you remove that flag from his hands ? It would have prevented this unsolicited sermon.

Nothing wrong with him holsteeing the proud Nigerian flag yet he isn't technically Nigerian unless his father is Nigerian.

Olodo, he is both, the Nigerian blood can't be deleted from his veins. When u ought to study science in school nd u opted for Art.


The father is the bloodline and contributes 60 percent of his DNA to his offspring. Nigeria is not called the father land for no reason. Nigerians are the fathers of Benin Republic Dahomey and they refer to Nigerians as their fathers. Bloodline is not a joke or publicity stunt.

nothing like land grabbing.

Jamaica has more Igbos than Yorubas.
If you doubt me, make your research dating from the time of Olauda Iquanor.

This is not something to chest beat over so have it. During that time igbos were slaves to all the tribes in Africa and beyond. Today you all are still slaves in all of Africa and beyond.

I have said it SEVERALLY! Our flag is boring and unidentifiable, ONLY Kenya has an IDENTIFIABLE and INDIGENOUS-LOOKING Flag......You JUST CANNOT mistake it's AFRICAN-THEMED Flag.
