Telling Driscuss Du Plessis that being born in Africa and living there his whole life doesn't make him African. In that case he should give up his US Citizenship.
I really hope Leon knocks this dude out again.

I'm all about some fun rivalries and **** talking but I'd definitely prefer if it didn't carry heavy racial/political connotations.
As fun a fight as that would be I feel like the UFC should probably avoid faning those flames like the plague.

Leon Edwards, SUB, R1
Yes, maybe I'm crazy:) But the first round in their previous fight doesn't get out of my head. Earlier I thought that Leon would win the third fight by decision. But now I think that the perfect game plan for Edwards in this fight - to submit Kamaru, because Usman's team expects a problems in striking only. And Leon definitely can do it

I'm not gonna comment further then that cause this will get too political and were here to talk about fights.
EDIT: Unless you're agreeing with my previous posts where I think Usman gets finished again, than yes were on the same page.

Its more complicated for biracial people, or people torn from many cloths... I heard many of them can have identity issues sometimes, but some are super humans like these 2 half Thai half Dutch brothers below. I have had some identity issues myself I am multi-ethnic

Kamaru Usman, DEC
I hope Edwards does it again, but Usman looked so good for most of their last fight.

But the way he phrased it is dumb and just objectively incorrect 😂 so I can't be on his side either.
I would elaborate more but I agree with foppa, I don't want to get political.
