While fans expect brutal trolls after Israel Adesanya’s away loss UFC 281. No one expected a well-known sports company such as ESPN MMA’s official Twitter account to release an edit of “The Last Stylebender.” Recently, Adesanya said in her post-fight octagon interview at UFC 276 that she would be leaving Pereira’s “Frozen Like Elsa”.
His opponent, Alex Pereira, also took up this sentence and opened fire on his foe ahead of last weekend’s middleweight title game. After “Poatan” knocked out the former champion, many fans quoted the superstar and made fun of him. Earlier today, the official Twitter account of ESPN MMA posted an edit that you’ll most likely see a troll in a Twitter post.
Fans were outraged that the official broadcast partner of the UFC disrespected a PPV star like Israel Adesanya by making such an arrangement. Reacting to the release of such a video by someone like ESPN MMA, the fans were divided. This isn’t the first time Adesanya and her fans have felt disrespected by ESPN.
