Israel Adesanya used Ricky Martin’s legal trouble surrounding sexual & romantic relationship with nephew to mock Paulo Costa
UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya and Paulo Costa’s longstanding feud has found a new home outside the octagon on Twitter. The pair are often seen chirping back and forth, resorting to razzing comments, macabre humor, and insults. Back in 2019 at UFC 243, Paulo Costa was in attendance to witness Israel Adesanya contest for the undisputed middleweight title against Robert Whittaker. Adesanya dismantled Whittaker, and immediately took the microphone to call out Paulo Costa, and referenced him as ‘Ricky Martin’.
Enrique Martín Morales, known professionally as Ricky Martin, is a Puerto Rican singer, songwriter, and actor. Claims of a disgusting sexual & romantic relationship with nephew is being surrounded around the star. Now while Martin has denied the claims, he has been confronted with a temporary restraining order in past weeks and most recently with further claims of violence and more in the fallout of a supposed seven-month intimate affair with the 21-year nephew.
A hearing has been set for July 21 in Puerto Rico on the subject. Since domestic abuse with a relative is the felony, Martin could be looking at a nearly 50-year sentence if found guilty.
Israel Adesanya was probably referring to Paulo Costa’s dressing and switch in personality while calling him ‘Ricky Martin wannabe’. Israel Adesanya is known to not mince words while speaking his mind, and reacted to the situation on Twitter, with an image of Paulo Costa on it.
He wrote, ‘Damn…what’s the world coming to 😔’
‘Ban condoms’ – Israel Adesanya reacts to US Supreme Court killing abortion rights
The court dominated by a conservative mindset, overturned the landmark 1973 “Roe v Wade” decision that empowered a woman’s right to an abortion, saying that individual states can now permit or restrict the procedure themselves.
“The Constitution does not confer a right to abortion; Roe and Casey are overruled; and the authority to regulate abortion is returned to the people and their elected representatives,” the court said.
“The Constitution does not prohibit the citizens of each State from regulating or prohibiting abortion,” he said.
This preposterous ruling will lead to a series of stringent new laws being drafted in roughly half of the 50 US states that will severely restrict or outright ban and criminalize abortions, forcing women to travel long distances to states that still permit the procedure.
The opinion shredded the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling by the nation’s highest court that said women had the right to abortion based on the constitutional right to privacy over their own bodies.
This victory for the religious right was met with some serious resistance, as people poured onto the streets in numbers to protest. Many have viewed this ruling as turning back the clock to 50 pus years and inhuman.
The ‘Last Stylebender’ is all set to fight for his fifth title defense against Jared Cannonier at UFC 276.
Israel Adesanya is not known to mince words while speaking his mind, and has expressed his agitation with his home government in the past. He sticks out his opinion on things that matter.
He reacted to the news on Twitter by saying, ‘Ban condoms then…’
