UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya is reportedly facing a court battle after splitting with an ex-girlfriend who wants half of his earnings - and the 'Last Stylebender' has come out swinging on social media.
Adesanya, who recently reclaimed the middleweight title at UFC 287 by knocking out longtime rival Alex Pereira, is making headlines in the fight world after apparently breaking up with his ex, Charlotte Powdrell.
Last month the MMA superstar took to social media to slam an unnamed romantic partner in a scathing post.
'You don't care about my life cause you've sold info about me, so I don't care about yours,' he wrote.
'I don't even hate; I just don't care about you. I've not been in love with you for a while. In summary, I'm glad this happened. I wouldn't change a f**king thing.'
He posted two more scornful attacks apparently also aimed at Powdrell.
'Me loading up receipts…. Y'all shoulda left me the f**k alone! I got time and I got lawyer money.
'Women's 'Standards ' are merely fairy tales they have after living in a nightmare.' 'LOL women…'
Adesanya also commented on footballer Achraf Hakimi's divorce with his wife, which saw the Moroccan star register his wealth under his mother's name to protect it from being taken in a split.
'Very relatable,' wrote Adesanya on Instagram.
'Imagine being so f****n entitled that you think you deserve what a man has worked his whole life for.
'When you came into this life with nothing and tried to leave with millions. But like Achraf Hakimi, my assets are protected. I woulda taken half her s**t too, but I don't want half of NOTHING.'
Fans speculated about what could have the furious reaction from Adesanya, who isn't known for talking about his personal life on social media.
However, UFC contender Sean O'Malley offered insight into the apparent details during an episode of his podcast, stating that Adesanya's ex wanted half of the champ's earnings despite not being being married to or having children with him.
'I'd seen Izzy tweet something and I was confused because I didn't really know, but Izzy's ex-girlfriend, they're not married, right, wants half of his shit,' O'Malley said.
'I don't know how their relationship was because I didn't even know he had a girlfriend, but to want half of what he's gone out there and done is absolutely ridiculous.
'I mean, it's hard to say who knows maybe if they were together for 15 years since the beginning and she didn't work because she was constantly making him food, massages and at the gym doing all this stuff for him, then I say yeah.
'Definitely not half, no way in hell half, but maybe compensate a little bit ... I mean, dude, girls, you could be in love but the second it happens, them b****es get crazy.'
