UFC 293 pre-workouts had its fair share of antics. On one hand, while Middleweight title-shot challenger Sean Strickland was spotted pulling a wild stunt with one of his fans.

Israel Adesanya pulled up to the stage after the UFC 293 pre-workouts. In order to make a lasting impression on his fans – and also to rekindle his charismatic image among fans, ‘Izzy’ invited a couple of fans onto the stage. One of the two fans who popped up on stage was the same guy who participated in ‘Tarzan’s sparring stunt.

 

The ‘Stylebender’ gave clear instructions to the pair of fans as to how to perform the push-ups. When one of the two fans onstage hesitated, ‘Izzy’ humorously asked him to be “a man of his word” – since he put himself in the position there. But things went wild after none of the men were able to follow what ‘Izzy’ instructed – and it all turned into a big screw-up. Eventually, Adesanya appreciated both the fans – and bid them farewell. Within minutes, snippets from this interaction went viral on social media for all the wrong reasons.
