New Zealand mixed martial artist, kickboxer, and former boxer, Israel Adesanya is in the headlines for the reasons you wouldn’t expect.
Being one of the fiercest UFC fighters, he has a personality marred with controversies which has often caused a huge blow to his reputation. With all that, he is in the headlines as he has been accused of animal mistreatment.
Israel Adesanya is set to take on Sean Strickland this Saturday at UFC 293. With the match just days away, controversial clips have resurfaced, with popular YouTubers like THE MMA GURU covering Adesanya’s alleged dog fetish.
A young Adesanya was seen cuddling up to his dog and rubbing his belly before touching the dog’s private parts. The video was reposted with the caption, “RIP Milli” and ever since, it has created quite a controversy.
Why Is Israel Adesanya In Controversy?
Adesanya’s affection for dogs has taken a decidedly unconventional turn as an old video from April 2022 began to circulate. In the video, he is allegedly seen m*sturbating his dog. He cuddled and scratched his dog’s belly as it seemed like a wholesome video until he went to his genitals.
The video took a disturbing turn when Israel started touching his dog in an inappropriate area and started laughing about it. It can be assumed that the video has been resurfaced to stir some more controversies around Israel Adesanya.
Ahead of his upcoming match with Sean Strickland, a video by The MMA Guru mentions it as another of Adesanya’s disturbing videos. In the video, the YouTuber also showed an interview where Adesanya, during a conversation related to s*x, allegedly called a s*x partner “puppy”.
Allegations On Israel Adesanya
The Instagram post by The MMA Guru, a vigilant observer of Adesanya’s online activities, revealed that he was astounded to stumble upon evidence suggesting that Adesanya’s fondness for our four-legged friends ventures into eerie territory.
Adding more about Israel’s alleged dog fetish, he was seen engaging in unsettling dog-related content on Instagram.
The MMA fighter liked an image depicting a girl in a canine posture, subjected to demeaning treatment by a man. In the past, Israel Adesanya was also seen donning a dog collar around his own neck. All these online interactions indicated a consistent pattern of engaging with creepy and questionable dog-related posts on social media accounts.
Sean Strickland Called Israel Adesanya A ‘Sh*tty Person’
During a conversation on the JRE MMA Show #134 hosted by Joe Rogan, Sean talked about Izzy’s disgraceful act of m*sturbating a dog. He called him a “sh*tty” person for it and talked about the video asking Rogan if he had watched it. “There is a video of him [Israel Adesanya] j**king his dog off. Did you see that?” said Strickland.
What Is Next For Israel Adesanya?
So far, the MMA Fighter has not commented upon the controversy. While many are alleging him to be a kind of animal molester, nothing has been confirmed. Hence conforming about whether Adesanya was m*sturbating the dog would be false.
His next opponent for his UFC middleweight title reign will be Sean Strickland. It is said that he is not the most threatening opponent to ‘The Last Stylebender,’ as per the records on the paper.
The UFC 293 Early Prelims kickoff on Saturday, September 9 at 6:30 PM ET / 3:30 PM PT in the United States on ESPN+ and UFC Fight Pass.
