00:00Who is Israel Adesanya?
00:02Israel Adesanya!
00:04The best middleweight on planet Earth.
00:10I was an outsider, and then I tried to fit in, but I wasn't meant to fit in.
00:15It was two kids.
00:16Next day, I had my lips like this.
00:18I got beat up.
00:22Dancing helped me discover using your anger as fuel.
00:27Dancing in front of three people gives me anxiety.
00:29Fighting in front of millions of people doesn't do shit to me.
00:37They don't teach you how to be famous, so I've had to learn this shit myself.
00:40Israel Adesanya has found himself under fire for trash-talking.
00:45All these cameras on me and shit.
00:46He wears his emotions on his sleeve, and in this sport, that's pretty abnormal.
00:53I still struggle. I'm just fighting through everything.
00:56I have to make him understand what's going to keep him focused is his love for the sport.
01:01He never let me not be me.
01:03I remind myself I'm human. I'm able to just go forth in my life.
01:10I want to represent for my younger self, because I remember feeling helpless.
01:15Only a few have managed to beat that demon.
01:20If you're in front of me, I'm going to use you as a canvas to show off my art.
01:24You're going to change after this?
01:26This haircut though, man. I swear.
01:30I'm chasing greatness.
01:34I find comfort in the uncomfortable.
01:39I've got his back.
01:41I will make today count.
01:46Israel Adesanya.
01:48Try and put me in a box.
01:50That's the story you're telling yourself, but that's not the truth.
