‘The Stylebender’ felt offended by Kawa’s comment and went to twitter to reveal past DM’s received from the agent. He try to expose him as desperate and trying to ‘fish for gold’ after being contacted twice.

The messages sent by Kawa back in 2016 and 2018 included:

January 2016 – “What’s up? I represent guys like Bones, Condit, and Pettis etc. Would love to talk to you you get a chance.”

July 2018 – “What’s good brother? For your information, I represent Jon Jones, Tyron Woodley as well as a bunch of other fighters. You got ‘IT’. Do you have a manager? If not, I’d love to discuss the future with you.”

Adesanya felt the need to expose their conversation after he felt he was insulted by Jones’ agent.

The ‘Stylebender’ is now pursuing a two division title reign. He aimes to fight light heavy champion Jan Blachowicz with both their belts placed on the line. He hopes to fight Jon Jones one day and prove to the fans who the real ‘GOAT’ is.
