HINAMON ni Israel Adesanya ang mga nag-aakusa sa kanya na patunayan na gumagamit nga siya ng Performance Enhancing Drugs (PEDs) at nakahanda siyang magbigay ng $3 million sa makapagpapatunay nun.
Ayon sa UFC middleweight champion na malinis ang kanyang kunsensiya at katawan sa anumang ipinagbabawal na droga.
Maging ang USADA ay makakapagpatunay sa isinagawa nilang ranmdom testing na malinis si Adesanya sa anumang ipinagbabawal na substance bago pa ito sumalang sa kanyang title defence laban kay Jared Cannonier sa UFC 276 card.
Para matahimik ang kanyang ‘detractors’ ay nag-alok siya ng ‘monetary’ reward sa sinuman na makakapagpatunay na nandaya siya sa paggamit ng PEDs.
Matatandaan na inakusahan si Adesanya ng dati niyang nakatunggali na si Paulo Costa na gumamit ito ng steroid sa naging laban nila na kitang-kita raw sa paglaki ng dibdib nito ang epekto.
Pagkaraang batiin siya ni UFC’s Senior Vice President of Athlete Health and Performance Jeff Novitsky (aka the man who essentially oversees drug testing) sa kanyang panalo, agad na nag-isyu ng paghahamon si Adesanya sa sinuman na makakapagpatunay na gumamit nga siya ng droga.
“When you’re great, they talk about ‘Tittygate,’” pahayag ni Adesanya sa media sa Las Vegas nung Miyerkules.
“At the same time, I’m like, ‘How the f*ck?’ They just need to find excuses to take away my greatness. I understand this is what people are supposed to do, so I let them. Look, I will give $3 million to anyone who can ever have concrete evidence that I even know what the f*ck I’m doing with steroids or how to take steroids.
“I promise you… $3 million if you can find anyone who has concrete evidence that I’ve ever even purchased, touched, or done any kind of performance-enhancing drugs or whatever. I watched Icarus. That’s how much I know about steroids, from that documentary. It opened my eyes. It shocked me.
“So yeah, $3 million for anyone who can ever find any concrete evidence that I’ve been using performance-enhancing drugs. Pull up. This is easy. It’s easy to talk and type online, but really it got to me a little after the Costa fight. I was like, ‘These f*cking c*nts are just trying to take away my greatness, because I had a f*cking spectacular performance.’
