    • He said "I'm the African fighter in the UFC" - Don't be an idiot. The inference there is that, Izzy, Kamaru and Ngannou are not African Fighters. He also lied when he said the belts didn't go back to Africa because Izzy did take his belt to his former primary school in Nigeria. So it's only DDP that was race baiting with those comments. Knowing we barely a generation from his Apartheid in South Africa. He's an idiot with those statements.

The ultimate winner. Much along the lines of GSP and Silva, Jon Jones Is what made me fall In love with this sport and ultimately wanting to compete In It (still do).
