Adesanya admitted to drunk driving

Israel Adesanya, a former UFC middleweight champion, admitted to driving while intoxicated. This incident happened a few weeks before the fight with Sean Strickland.

“I would like to apologize to the community, my family and my team for my decision to drive after drinking at dinner. I was stopped, after which I had a blood test: the result was 87 milligrams of alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood...,” Izzy said.

The fighter also added that he was disappointed with his action and considered the decision to drive after drinking alcohol unacceptable.
