Ahead of this weekend’s UFC card, UFC strawweight, Angela Hill discussed several topics with reporters. These included the most recent UFC 253 main event between Israel Adesanya and Paulo Costa and Colby Covington’s antics from UFC Fight Night 178.
When pressed on her opinion about Stylebender’s controversial celebration at the end, Hill responded, “That was funny. I mean, like why be mad about that. The dry humping, there wasn’t any penetration. He didn’t actually smack him with anything. It was miming, he was doing aggressive miming.”

Hill noted that the fight must have got to Adesanya mentally. She said, “I think he was excited and this fight really got to him mentally and had to dig deep into his zen state of mind and watch a lot of Naruto to really channel that inner ninja in him.”
While she thought that Adesanya’s choice of post-fight celebration was a bit disrespectful, she didn’t find it too out of line considering the tense buildup.

I think people need to lighten up.”
