Israel Adesanya sees something going on, and it appears he doesn’t like it. The former UFC middleweight champion, who tries to recapture the belt Saturday in the UFC 305 main event, took issue this week with the editing of a portion of the “Countdown” preview episode for the event. It centers around the tension between middleweight titleholder Dricus Du Plessis (21-2 MMA, 7-0 UFC), from South Africa, and Adesanya (24-3 MMA, 13-3 UFC), who was born in Nigeria, but lives and trains in New Zealand. Du Plessis will defend the title for the first time in Perth, Australia.
