When Sean Strickland brought up Israel Adesanya‘s questionable behavior with his late pet dog, Millionaire, that supposedly became the highlight of the UFC 293 pressers. He laid down a barrage of insults on the former 2-time champion regarding that matter. Now, that issue has come to haunt Adesanya back as Dricus du Plessis didn’t leave the opportunity to remind ‘Izzy’ about it.
Things were already hot between Dricus du Plessis and Israel Adesanya, but it got even much more heated during the UFC 305 press conference. Israel Adesanya even broke down in tears while promising to take ‘Stillknocks’s “head off.” However, minutes before that, a reporter decided to ask for ‘Izzy’s reaction to him not being listed as the favorite to win. Understandably, the former 2-time champion was surprised.
“No one said anything about dogs, bro, chill out!”

Israel Adesanya asked, “When did I become the underdog?” That’s when Dricus du Plessis decided to jibe at the former champion, referring to the controversy with his late pet dog. “Nobody said anything about dogs, bro. Chill out,” du Plessis responded. There was no doubt that Adesanya was visibly triggered by that comment, but he couldn’t help but a little laughter at the reigning champion’s comment.
