Fans go wild over Israel Adesanya getting revenge on Alex Pereira’s son

In 2016, when Alex Pereira defeated Israel Adesanya, his son climbed into the ring and mocked Adesanya by mimicking his knockout and lying dead next to him. Fast forward to seven years later today, ‘The Last Stylebender’ finally got the opportunity to turn the tables on Pereira’s reign. And he didn’t forget to serve a taste of mockery in revenge, aimed at Pereira’s son.

During his celebration after beating ‘Poatan’, Adesanya pointed at his rival’s son and subsequently fell on the ground, mimicking the same move Pereira’s son had made years before. The clip of Adesanya’s celebration went viral, and fans went into hysteria.

Fans from all over the world poured their thoughts about this gesture. One fan said, “Say what you want but bro needed this. He got everything off his chest even went after the kids too😭😭”. Another fan said, “Nobodys safe 😂”. One user found the gesture “mad funny”.

Meanwhile, some fans thought that this celebration was unnecessary. One user said, “Not to the kid weird af.” Another user said, “This dude is the biggest cringe factory.” Lastly, one fan commented, “Taking revenge from a 13 year old? What a man child 🤡🤡🤡”

Adesanya reveals why mocked Pereira’s son

During the post-fight press conference, a journalist asked Israel Adesanya about the incident where he pretended to fall after winning the fight. Adesanya clarified that the move was intended for Pereira’s son and admitted that it was payback for the young boy’s mocking behavior back in 2016.

‘The Last Stylebender’ said, “I’m petty, bro. I remember the first time he [Alex Pereira] knocked me out in Brazil, and his son came into the ring and then started to lie dead next to me, and I’m like, ‘you f**ing little asshole. I’ll whoop your a** if your dad don’t do it for you’. But then, yeah, I looked for his kid, and I pointed at him, and I saw him, and I was like, ‘Hey, hey, hey, ‘motions falling down*’, just to remind him.”
