Firas Zahabi shares his thoughts on Israel Adesanya’s “incredibly strange” and “very suspicious” gyno: “In my mind, there’s only one reason for this”
World-famous MMA coach Firas Zahabi gave his take on the rumours surrounding Israel Adesanya and his gyno.
With many claiming it occurred due to steroid use and similar theories, Zahabi explained that a doctor indicated that receiving punches to the chest causing tissue damage could be the reason behind the swollen pectoral muscle.
That being said, Zahabi fails to buy the doctor’s theory, having coached hundreds of fighters over the years and has never come across anything like it.
Firas Zahabi on Israel Adesanya and his swollen peck
“Guys, I find it incredibly strange. Like, for me, I’ve only ever seen… Guys get punched in the chest all the time. I’ve never seen a guy walk in the ring, walk out with an inflamed breast.”
Having dug a little deeper, the Tristar head coach revealed Adesanya’s gyno has only been visible in the latter stages of his career and not in his younger days. Zahabi furthered his suspicions by indicating he’s only seen “one group that has this problem”.
“In my mind, there’s only one reason for this. There’s only one group that has this problem, there’s only one group. What other possibility could there be? People are putting pictures of him in the earlier years, he doesn’t have it, doesn’t have it, then all of a sudden, boom, he’s got it. And for me I have no explanation guys. I have no idea. It’s very suspicious. Very suspicious to me.”
