Israel Adesanya is one of the most exciting MMA fighters of the present day. The UFC world might be aware of the love Adesanya has for anime. Other than anime, the current middleweight champion is also a lover of Hollywood movies. In his recent Instagram Q&A session, Adesanya made it clear that he not only watches movies but also ponders the essence of the motion picture.

One such movie that made ‘The Last Stylebender’ reflect on his life was “Everything Everywhere All at Once.” The Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert movie is considered one of the best films of 2022. At the 95th Academy Awards, the movie received eleven nominations and ended up winning seven of them. Like the majority of cinephiles, Adesanya too accepts that it’s the best movie of 2022 for one particular reason: the Michelle Yeoh-starred movie made him think of the reality of his own life.

“Everything Everywhere, All at Once” takes its audience to the multiverse, where the protagonist, Evelyn Wang, realizes that she is merely a version of herself among the other infinite versions. The movie made Adesanya realize that there might be infinite versions of oneself, and he found the fact fascinating.
