Not only have they never trained in Africa for one day of their lives…they have not even lived there since they were about 10 yrs old if that…meaning neither of them have even spent ONE THIRD of their 32+ year lives in Africa.

Can they not be proud of their heritage because they were forced to leave for a better life?
      Dricus is also talking from the perspective of a very recent descendant of colonisers, whether he likes it or not. Do some research on apartheid if you're not sure about it.

This is ridiculous at this point Izzy should go back to Africa and Dricus should go back to Holland or whatever so they can be their authentic selfs lol i mean cmon guys people have always conquered throughout history. Even the indigenous african tribes fought we eachother and conquered eachother. Its just life people need to grow up. Dricus clearly loves Africa. Lets say im indigenous mexican right. But theres a guy from spain who grew up in mexico while i grew up in Europe. Hes goijg ti be more culturally in tune with Mexico than i am. And ill visit mexico but most likely not live there like he does. I consider that man a mexican and im secure in my heritage but Izzy clearly is not. And i would even admit that that person is more mexican than me in some ways. Maybe not when it comes to the looks because ill always look more mexican but culturally he would probably me more mexican than i am and theres nothing wrong with that unless your an insecure little narcissist like izzy who makes everything about himself and worst off some of you fans applaud his horrible behavior.

      You guys are dumb he never said ddp wasn’t african. Ddp discredited all 3 african champions and said they didn’t bring the belt to Africa. When each of them won they brought the belt to Africa and not to mention they had to leave because there aren’t ample opportunities in the region of Africa that they are from, compared to South Africa which is the wealthiest country on the continent. Imagine if I said a dude that moved out of section 8 housing in Compton to a different city so that he could chase his dreams and when he achieves them say he isn’t from Compton. It doesn’t make sense ddp started this bs and he is in the wrong.

The Springboks (look up the history! moto stronger together) specifically, is a world beacon when it comes to transformation. They are the world champions and took the cup on a bus tour across the country. Black people and white people in South Africa were partying through the night, together.

    What DDP said is exactly what Leon said about Bisping when he first won the belt from Usman. Leon said that he was the first British fighter to win the Championship because actually lived in England. It's a ridiculous thing to say because Bisping moved the U.S. to get a proper training camp.

      You sir are the one not paying attention. If you are willing to question other peoples rights to call themselves african, if you qualify them as fake and call yourself real.. then you must be willing to defend your own claims to being an african especially since your citizenship is not as a result of being indigenous to the land.
