Did you catch what happened at the UFC 305 press conference? Things escalated quickly when Israel Adesanya broke down in tears following a heated exchange with Dricus du Plessis. The tension between these two fighters has been building for some time, but no one expected this emotional outburst.

Adesanya fired back with palpable emotion, “Shut the f*** up, you don't even know anything about my story... My father and myself had to wake up at 4 a.m. and clean the banks while my mom studies to be a nurse. You don't know my f***ing story. Don’t f***ing speak on my story if you don't know my story. I will show you who you are Sunday. So, right now, shut the f*** up.”
Adesanya's response escalated quickly, blending tears with a fierce declaration: “He touched a subject there because I do this for my family... I am a f***ing human being. I am a man. I can cry and whoop your ass at the same time. I feel the love from the crowd. The first time I fought here [at UFC] 221, that was February 2018. That was me making my dream come true. Sunday, I'm going to f***ing kill your dreams, b*tch. I want to f***ing kill your dreams.”
Following the conference, du Plessis continued the taunting on Twitter, minimizing the emotional display with, “Come on guys stop crying at the press conferences it’s not that serious,” paired with a laughing emoji. He then added fuel to the fire with a photo of Adesanya in tears captioned, “I win the screenshot game.”
