“I was heartbroken, because I thought it was us and I was like, ‘Oh! they’ll announce, they’ll announce it and Tim was holding out because he and Hunter, shoutout Hunter and Dana, they were like going back-and-forth and then.

When asked about how he felt about the reasoning behind Du Plessis’ refusal to compete at UFC 300 due to an injury, Adesanya responded. “They're not built like us. It's different... Okay, So, I wasn't even fully healed. I'm taking time off. And when the opportunity presented itself, I was like, ‘F—k it's history. This is monumental, UFC 300. F—ing let's do it.' But again, they’re not built like us. Myself,. When we were champions, just f—k it, just fight. F-k the belt. I got belts at home. Even fans, whenever they see me now, they go, ‘Oh man I hope you get that belt back.
