Israel Adesanya’s Priceless Response to the Space Question Featuring Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos & Sir Richard Branson

Israel Adesanya is all set to make his return to the octagon, after his win over Marvin Vettori last year, at UFC 271. ‘The Style Bender’  will take on the former middleweight champion, Robert Whittaker, at UFC 271. Their fight will headline the event which will go down at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas.

Ahead of his upcoming bout, Israel Adesanya appeared in an interview with Conor McGregor’s media company, ‘The Mac Life’. In the entertaining interview, the Nigerian answered a variety of questions.

One of the questions he was asked was,” A new law is introduced where billionaires are only allowed to go to space if they insert a model of the spaceship into their rectum. Who goes first? (Jeff) Bezos, Elon (Musk) or (Richard) Branson?”

Adesanya answered the question and said that Bezos was the most likely to go first.

In the same interview, Israel Adesanya revealed a shocking fact about Dana White. He said that he had never seen the UFC president wear a mask since the COVID-19 pandemic started.

He said,” “I know he’s got Covid now, he’s beat it. But like I liked his confidence. Like, he just never had a mask on ever through this whole pandemic… It’s like this force field,”

Israel Adesanya vs. Robert Whittaker 2: Prediction

Israel Adesanya will make his fourth title defense appearance at UFC 271 against Robert Whittaker. Whittaker and Adesanya have fought each other once before, as well.

At UFC 243, Whittaker lost to Adesanya via a second-round knockout. ‘The Style Bender’ absolutely outclassed the Australian throughout the entirety of their bout. Whittaker was far from clinical with his striking, which cost him his middleweight title.

However, he has come a long way since then and has stacked up three consecutive victories.

Adesanya is one of the best strikers in the promotion. The only way Whittaker can beat the champion is if he takes the fight to the ground. However, this too would be difficult for him as Adesanya has one of the best takedown defenses in the UFC.
