Izzy questioning Whittaker's Kiwi'ness

Not sure about countries, but think he comes from Mars, the Moon & Uranus, too.

He's suffering a bad case of stupidity at the moment & he needs support from family, friends & his ex GF :)

Stay tuned for the next episode of Izzy Dribble. I like him as I'm Aussie, but there's only so much BS I can hear before my ears start closing over.
Come to think of it I think I’ve seen Izzy dribble on Uranus
 
Izzy is more Chinese than Fighter Kevin Lee, Bruce Lee and Robert E. Lee combined!

Very much more than Great American General Robert E. Lee as he did not believe in that choice lol

Thank you for your very #progressive comment, my UFC friend!

Even though I mostly agree with Dricus, one has to be able to see historical problems with his statement, especially in a country from which he is coming from. He is accusing africans (by heritage) for not living in there when all of them left because of the state of their countries, seeking a better life elsewhere, by choice or not (for most of them no choice because other option is being barely alive/dying). Meanwhile Dricuss is a white man and descendant of colonizers in South Africa, which has very well known history of opression by white people. I can bet you anything this is where Israel (Usman and Ngannou also) was triggered, since the statement is not fair. One cannot blame Adesanya for it.
I think the average south Africa gets panned for the recent (horrific) apartheid episode. But on the sortof time scales we are talking about, Dutch colonisation of south Africa and the colonisation of the current United States is broadly equivalent ~200-300 years.

So switch the roles and make the characters from a US state and their interactions with a first nation's American Indian or something with Mexican heritage? You could easily find similar parallels without the inherent negative bias towards DdP
 
See soon shit like this of Adesanya being caught in lies, and being a hypocrite, and everything else you could call him will be hitting the surface. Izzy only has fans because he wins fights, if he was just a top 5 fighter he’d had less than half the fan base he does now.
Yeah and butthurt biased fanboys mods move the threads so he doesn't get exposed as bad. Lmao

Any time anyone posts anything from tiktok I move on.
Yet here you are posting not exactly a good example of moving along ya Goof. Lol

There's truly horrific stuff going on on S. Africa now but we don't hear much about it because it doesn't fit the narrative.

Are you saying white lives don't matter?
 
Solid find. But to play devils advocate, I gotta say people of African lineage have a unique relationship with this subject in relation to Maori and others.
Weird game to play here. Wish this wasn't one of the main subjects hyping up this fight. Press conference is gonna be all sorts of awkward.

I won’t even dispute what you said, there are more than few parallels there… I even said that I mostly agree with Dricuss, only that he could have worded it better or something, because it is not completely fair towards africans who grew up in terrible conditions or their parents just wanted to get them out of those. They would surely be fighting in Africa if not for that, because they would never leave.

And I don’t hold anything against Dricuss, I don’t think he is a racist or think that he is guilty for something someone else did. Just saying that his “true african” comments are not completely fair to african UFC champions till now. I know he has ni bad intentions, but I can easily see that it can be taken as dismissive and insulting by many people.

It's sports. It's not political. The USA have a history of opression by white people as well and yet no one would call a white athlete a bigot for saying he's American.
The Dutch colonialization of South Africa began before 1700. That's a long long time ago. It makes zero sense to blame that on Dricus.
All he's saying is that his gym is in Africa, trying to give some props to the training facilities.

Praising your own coach and team isn't exactly 'blaming' someone for training elsewhere.
 
Maybe for octagon speech, but Dricuss did say things which are technically correct, but are actually insensitive and unfair to people who have heritage in Africa for much longer than he has.
Facts aren't emotions they are only facts, and who cares about a fighter considering the sensitivity of their comments?

For ever white farmer that gets murdered Izzy watches an episode of Naruto to show his support
