UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya recently spoke out on the recent Achraf Hakimi scandal. The fighter subtly showered the Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) right back with his support.

Achraf Hakimi is being looked into following a rape allegation. The footballer was allegedly indicted by a judge and put under judicial monitoring, according to Parisian prosecutors. After a 24-year-old woman accused Achraf Hakimi of rape in February, he is now under controversial circumstances after voraciously denying the statement claiming to be innocent.

The dispute began when Hakimi’s wife, Hiba Abouk, publicly filed for divorce from the Moroccan international. She also stated that she chose to end her relationship with Hakimi before he was charged with rape, but she did not provide an explanation for her decision. Apparently, Abouk also wants a portion of Hakimi’s wealth. She may not be entitled to anything, though, as it has been claimed that all wealth he has is in his mother’s name.

The court informed Abouk that her “Millionaire” husband has no property because everything is registered in his mother’s name. Hakimi receives €1 million per month from PSG, while his mother, Mrs. Fatima, receives eighty percent of this per month. He does not own any real estate, vehicles, homes, jewelry, or even clothing. He asks his mother to buy him anything whenever he wants it.

Israel Adesanya reacted to this news on Twitter using a chess emoji and one with hearts.

Israel Adesanya recently took out Alex Pereira by TKO in a highly anticipated contest at UFC 287. Adesanya faced astronomical odds, given that Pereira had three victories to Adesanya’s one. But not only did he get a win, but Adesanya also pulled off a divisive joke.

After defeating “Poatan” and performing a bow and arrow act on him, Adesanya got even with Alex’s son for making fun of him when he was a kickboxer. He locked eyes with Pereira’s son in the crowd and enacted in the same fashion he did to Adesanya, symbolizing his father getting knocked out. Whether or not Adesanya’s actions were justified is a conflicted topic on the internet.

In the press conference held following the fight, Adesanya told the entire tale. “I saw him backstage, we’re cool,” he said. Adesanya quoted Michael Jordan’s“…and I took that personally” from the Last Dance documentary in a
