00:00 Who is Israel Adesanya?
00:02 Israel Adesanya!
00:04 The best middleweight on planet Earth.
00:07 I was an outsider, and then I tried to fit in,
00:12 but I wasn't meant to fit in.
00:14 It was two kids.
00:16 Next day, I had my lips like this.
00:17 I got beat up.
00:19 Dancing helped me discover using your anger as fuel.
00:25 Dancing in front of three people gives me anxiety.
00:29 Fighting in front of millions of people doesn't do shit to me.
00:31 They don't teach you to be famous,
00:38 so I've had to learn this shit myself.
00:39 Israel Adesanya has found himself under fire for trash-talking.
00:44 All these cameras on me and shit.
00:46 He wears his emotions on his sleeve.
00:48 And in this sport, that's pretty abnormal.
00:50 Yeah.
00:53 I still struggle. I'm just fighting through everything.
00:56 I have to make him understand what's gonna keep him focused
01:00 is his love for the sport.
01:01 He never let me not be me.
01:03 I remind myself I'm human.
01:05 I'm able to just go forth in my life.
01:07 I wanna represent for my younger self,
01:12 'cause I remember feeling helpless.
01:14 Only a few have managed to beat that demon.
01:18 Excuse me.
01:19 If you're in front of me,
01:21 I'm gonna use you as a canvas to show off my art.
01:24 You're gonna change after this?
01:26 His haircut, though, man.
01:27 I swear.
01:28 Sorry.
01:29 I'm chasing greatness.
01:32 I find comfort in the uncomfortable.
01:36 I've got his back.
01:40 I will make today count.
01:43 Who is Israel Adesanya?
01:47 Try and put me in a box.
01:52 That's the story you're telling yourself, but that's not the truth.
