John McCarthy, the legendary referee, pointed out a violation of the rules that he committed Israel Adesanya in a duel against Sean Strickland. According to John, Izzy entered the Octagon with his nails too long. According to him, he would force Adesanya to shorten them.
“Not if I was officiating the fight. They needed to be shortened,” John wrote on social media.
Let us remember that before the fight, Strickland stated that he could not be beaten by a man with painted nails.
