Israel Adesanya talks about his plans for his documentary ‘Stylebender’

‘The Last Stylebender’ was talking with the Australian grappler, Craig Jones, in the El Segundo podcast. He mentioned that he wanted his story to be shot as docuseries, but unfortunately, it didn’t happen because of the decision of the filmmakers. He said, “Conor just dropped the new one ‘McGregor Forever’ so the first movie he did was more like the rise of ‘The Notorious’ this one more is like it’s a four-part series. I’ve watched them. It’s a four part of his life through different fights and each one’s like 40 minutes, 50 minutes long.

He added. “I want to do docuseries like ‘The Last Dance’ but think these guys are very Hollywood and they had a different idea of what they think would be good for like to break into the marketplace or whatever so I was like ‘you know what you know the business I’ll trust you.’ But I still had control of certain things because it’s my story. I want to tell them my way so yeah this is the first one I’m sure they’ll be like another two documentaries or another two, maybe like a f*king movie about me.Israel Adesanya detailed the plan he had for his movie, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival.
