@SubmissionRadio shared the video of Nigeria’s Israel Adesanya prostrating before His patent after defeating Robert Whittaker in the second round to become the undisputed UFC middleweight champion.
Respect for elders and authority is an integral part of the Yoruba culture, as well as most Nigerian cultures, and prostrating to greet (for boys) is one way to show that.
It’s such a beautiful photo and video. Check it out!
