He said in the post fight he was terrified and wanted to even FAKE AN INJURY so he didn’t have to go out. Super proud of him to overcome that fear and beat a top middleweight. Let’s go 🇬🇧
He also said he forgot to call the UFC Employee about his walkout music.. he didn’t want this song, hearing it is what made him want to fake an injury.. then he heard the crowd singing.. On the fight broadcast you can see it in his face, the emotions of shock ( from realizing he never called ole girl back about the song), then his face displays doubt.. then you hear the fans singing and he started smiling.
There’s a shot where Darren gave a little smile, but you could tell he didn’t want to be there. I remember watching that fight and I turned to my brother and said as much. So glad he came back and put on such a brilliant, controlled performance.
When he's taking his clothes off you can see Adesanya on the left by the guy in the green African garms SIZING HIM UP big time haha. And jamming to sweet caroline haha
