Elon Musk shocked the world a few months back with his offer to acquire Twitter and use the microblogging site as a medium of free speech. He used the platform to express that he is bored and received an ‘Epic’ solution from UFC champion Israel Adesanya.

The Tesla CEO, with a net worth of over $221 billion, tweeted, “Feeling… perhaps… a little bored?” After acknowledging Musk’s tweet, UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya couldn’t help but invite the billionaire to a UFC event he is headlining next.

“Come to #UFC276 It’s gonna be EPIC!!!” Adesanya wrote. 

UFC 276 will take place inside the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas tonight, with Adesanya taking on Jared Cannonier in the main event. This is Izzy’s fifth title defense in the promotion.

‘The Last Stylebender’ is already regarded as one of the greatest fighters by many, given his dominance in the division. And a win in this fight will solidify the claim even more. That being said, Izzy is also brought into the G.O.A.T discussion several times.

Most recently, he was compared to the newly inducted UFC Hall of Famer Khabib Nurmagomedov.

Khabib Nurmagomedov denies he could beat Israel Adesanya

Nurmagomedov’s manager Ali Abdelaziz claimed that ‘The Eagle’ would defeat current UFC middleweight kingpin Adesanya, but the Dagestani native dismissed this claim.

On being asked about his thoughts on Abdelaziz’s statements, Nurmagomedov said, “No, because I’m not going to fight in 185, I’m not going to fight with him. It’s like…”

“Right now, this is his time, you know. Don’t try to take his like greatness… But going to fight and talk about ‘Oh I can smash him.’ I didn’t say this. People talk about this. I don’t agree with this.”
