UFC 276 is just around the corner and ahead of the event, UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya has showcased his superb drawing abilities. UFC 276 features some of the top fighters in the UFC, including featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski, Max Holloway, Sean O’Malley and many more. The event is star packed and each fighter will enter the octagon on Saturday to dominate their opponent and get a victor.

Ahead of UFC 276, in a promotional video, UFC 276 fighters were asked to draw their opponent on a white canvas and whereas most fighters admitted that their sketching skills are not great, Israel turned into a painter and outperformed everyone even outside the octagon. Most fighters drew a basic figure which did not resemble their opponent. However, Israel’s sketch turned out to be a reduce above.

In a distinct show of his abilities, Adesanya drew a gorilla that represented his formidable opponent, Jared ‘the king gorilla’ Cannonier. Israel also admitted that his sketch was not great because of the time limit he has and also jokingly talking about promoting his drawings as NFTs. Israel said: “I’m just making it quick ‘cause I don’t have enough time in the day… 20 million? Starting off. 20 million. NFT. 20 million? Yes? Alright, mic drop.”

The pre-fight press conference took place recently, and each fighter was asked various questions about their fight and their preparations.

When Jared paused to speak more, Israel capitalized on the opportunity and asked him to keep his answers short. Izzy jokingly said: “Next time, keep it short and sweet, man. Keep it short and sweet.”

Jared was uneffected by Israel’s comment, and he continued to answer the question. Jared asserted what he needs to do inside the octagon on Saturday and claimed that he is not afraid to engage inside the octagon with anyone.
