Israel Adesanya Doubles Down on X-Rated Rant on Dricus Du Plessis With a 2-Word Message Taunting Over His Nationality

UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya has a talent for being a troll job on the internet. At times, he goes after his rivals in a similar manner. And in true Stylebender fashion, he has doubled down on the racial expletives in his feud against Dricus Du Plessis, taking a shot at ‘Stillknocks’ on Instagram.

His hostile face-off against Dricus Du Plessis, which saw him showering Du Plessis with racial slurs, is the latest chapter in their feud. The two have been going back and forth since DDP’s comments at UFC 285 press day, which Adesanya saw as questioning his African heritage. He posted a video on his Instagram with two simple words aimed at DDP.

Israel Adesanya posts expletive-ridden message to Dricus Du Plessis

Stylebender posted a story on his Instagram where he could be seen driving a car and vibing to a song playing in the background. The song is at a point where a racially charged word is being chanted repeatedly. Adesanya wrote a two-word caption with a flag of South Africa: “ Feel me!”.

This is no doubt a reference to their in-cage verbal confrontation at UFC 290 following DDP’s victory over Robert Whittaker, where Izzy repeatedly used racial slurs to his face. Luckily, it did not escalate to a physical exchange.

It seems Israel Adesanya is raring to fight Du Plessis and after UFC 290, he just might get his wish.

Adesanya vs. Du Plessis next?

Their feud began when Dricus Du Plessis told reporters that he didn’t think the UFC belts won by African champions Kamaru Usman, Francis Ngannou, and Israel Adesanya ever actually went to Africa since all three reside and train outside Africa. ‘Stillknocks’ finished by declaring that if he becomes champion, he will be the first African champion who lives there.

‘Izzy’, takes pride in his Yoruba roots. He saw this as a challenge to his African heritage and fired back at the South African. Du Plessis later clarified he didn’t mean to question the champions’ heritage.

After the 29-year-old’s recent win, he has bumped up to the #1 spot in the UFC middleweight rankings. He will probably face Adesanya at UFC 293 in September.
