Multi-million star Israel Adesanya boasts ‘holding’ Rolls Royce from father

The rise of Stylebender in the UFC saw the megastar sweep the entire middleweight division like a storm. Israel Adesanya had already made a name for himself in the kickboxing realm, but his true star power was unleashed in MMA. The Nigerian-Kiwi mixed martial artist has dominated the 185lbs division and earned his multi-million dollar status.

Regardless, one thing remains quite intact, i.e., Adesanya’s power to draw an audience. This impressive quality has enabled him to rake in millions as a PPV star. He may have lost the middleweight gold, but every fight sees him make a bank like winning a lottery. In one of his recent YouTube videos, Adesanya hilariously wanted to keep a hold of his father’s car – Rolls Royce.

When’s the Rolls ready? I want to drive that….end of this week? Then i will be gone…Nah my dad got one, but I said ‘let me hold that for two weeks’ I said ‘Aye pops, let me hold that for two weeks.’

Israel Adesanya has been a marquee main-event talent for UFC for many years. He has headlined 11 events in a row over the past 5 years. Out of these, in the majority of the bouts, the Kiwi resident earned invaluable PPV points as champion. Now entering into the new leg of his career, the MMA star still remains a sought-after name in the promotion. 

The ‘Stylebender’ received callouts from contenders like Khamzat Chimaev to Shara Magomedov after UFC 308. It is quite evident that his star power is pretty much alive, and he enjoys financial success along with Rolls Royce and other supercars. His MMA future remains unknown, from who he’ll fight next or how long he intends to fight. Nevertheless, he doesn’t have to worry about wealth ever again.

Being a world champion in the UFC comes with its fair share of perks and advantages. These perks directly translate into windfall financial gains, global popularity, and lucrative deals. Moreover, Adesanya has ruled the roost for quite some time, taking his portfolio to well over $20 million.

Adesanya has opened various ventures across Auckland, including a real estate business. The UFC star has purchased a built-to-rent sub-division in the city called ‘Adesanya Close.’ This has roped in 3000 viewings in a brief span. The MMA star currently owns over 19 properties, from Auckland to Dunedin, expanding his portfolio even more.

Regardless of the world champion status to his name or not, the 35-year-old will continue to rope in big bucks. At the moment, Adesanya is recuperating from a tough loss at the hands of reigning middleweight champion Dricus Du Plessis. For the first time in a long while, it looks like Adesanya will find himself in a non-title bout upon his return in 2025. However, who he shall face next is still up in the air.
