PLEASE WATCH THIS THROUGH TO THE END IT JUST GETS WORSE AND WORSE FROM ARIEL! ESPECIALLY WHEN HE GETS BAREMAN'S THOUGHTS ON IT. I can't believe he has nothing to say about Usman's words and doesn't even feel the need to bring them up during the interview with Dricus that he posted. Making it look like this was all a one sided attack from Dricus! Usman said Dricus will never be African despite him being born and raised there. Dricus' posts are in defense of himself.

Dricus never said they weren't African he just said that he will be the first African Champion to take the belt back to Africa. He doesn't need to explain himself, because it's true. Usman after a fight goes back to his home in the US. Izzy goes back to NZ and Dricus GOES TO IS HOME IN AFRICA. Is it so hard for some people to understand that.

Thank you for defending Dricus. I am a South African and we are raised to be proud of our country and as a nation we support our athletes very intensely. There is also an intense rivalry between South Africa, New Zeeland and Australia in sports like Rugby and Cricket and i think the coach was taken out of context. As a develpoing country it is good to see that we can live,train and compete out of South Africa at that level and i simply think he was proud to represent his country and at the same time poke the bear for a shot at the title. The race card unfortunately will always be pulled out by the fools to try and get a point through

For context I'm in the U.S. & I'm of German, Mexican, Scottish, Irish, Nicaraguan, & Portuguese decent. DDP is right. He's not taking away from others heritage, he's just embracing his nationality, community & culture & trying to make a fight, he stated his stance succinctly. Now me -- my culture is independence, I wish I could be proud of "my country" like DDP but "my" gov't is phony & beyond reprehensible. They don't care about us. And it's not often people care about their fellow man/community either so it's inspiring to me when I do see people that genuinely love their community, something I find difficult to do, what with my temperament & my distaste for the way mainstream society seems to think. I'm glad most of the people here in the comments can see the hypocrisy in this situation. Sometimes I love my MMA community 💘 when we get it right anyway haha 😅 we gotta make Ariel see the light & stand behind DDP. That might be hopeless but it's worth a shot ✌

[@martyfromnebraska1045]

I can make it make sense. The consistent standard is whatever hurts white people easiest in the relevant context is what is taken to be true. Where you’re born and raised only matters if you’re non-white and were born and raised in a majority white country. If you’re in, let’s say, Britain, and you’re non-White, you are more British than the people who have thousands of years of history there and built the country. If it is a non-white country, that nation’s identity is strongly connected with race and white people who live there are colonizers and not true whatevers. Whites are there as (uninvited) guests at best, unwelcome burdensome oppressive pests at worst. In a historically white country, race being tied to nationality allows white people to have a positive identity and just live their lives. It also allows them to treat others as guests, welcome or unwelcome, and to set standards in line with their history, values, behavior, etc. Thus, any white country must have membership defined in non-racial terms. This is necessary to deny white people legitimate status as a people. “I don’t see color; Britain has always been multicultural.” In the non-white country case, having a racialized national identity allows white people to be excluded from legitimacy and justifies various attacks on them so they live in a constant state of shame, and again can be reminded that they don’t belong and are uninvited blights on the indigenous population. “You are not truly African. You are just an invader/colonizer who oppresses the REAL Africans.” America is currently transitioning from a majority white country to a majority non-white country, so you see the shift from “race doesn’t matter so being white is illegitimate” to “We must see race and attack white people for being illegitimate” in real time. Again, it makes sense if you assume the goal is to hurt white people in whatever way is easiest given the context. It also makes sense when you consider Ariel’s background and what benefits him.

thank you so much guru for making a video on this I was so disgusted watching Ariel try and frame Dricus, I am a south African of color and we south Africans have gone through apartheid, a large majority if not all south Africans respect all people of different walks of life no matter the color. people of other countries are trying to be hurt for our struggles need to stop, they always manipulate our struggles for theirs and I hate it. we are a proud nation and is known as the rainbow nation for having different race groups. jus because you black doesn't mean you Africans, a lot of people are making it out that being black you are Africans, NO. Even south Africans don't like the way how Americans claim they are Africans but they haven't even breathed our air let alone their parent haven't also. Africans recognize Africans, and we don't recognize Usman and Izzy at all. they ran away when we struggled, took servant with them to have a better life, which is great for them and all but we would see Dricus as out first African champ. Izzy and Usman has no fans in African except Nigeria. bring their back sides to Afrika and I can promise they cant even sell a single pay per view. Dricus is a true African champ for representing Afrika proudly. Areil is trying to make this a race thing to build the fight. Izzy and Usman didn't even watch what Dricus say exactly. But we life in a society where all fames black people want to attach themselves to Africa's struggles, stop trying to be victims you cowards. and stop with this narrative that all white people in Afrika are evil. they were also forced by the law to do things to black people, they also protected black people and protested with us to end aparthied but was erased from history and even punished , their is videos online when apartheid ended whites and black people were celebrating together.

[@TheStraightestWhitest]

@WildBillDebateslikedestiny Usman isn't right. He's saying being born and raised (Dricus' family is also native to Africa for over 200 years) in Africa doesn't make you African if you're white. Meanwhile we all call Leon Edwards, who wasn't native to England, English. Usman is a black supremacist, anti-white racist. That simple.

Dricus is the only person who never brought race into the equation. He stated some factual information about his status as the fighter who was born, raised, lives and trains within the continent of Africa. He's proud to represent Africa and his country of South Africa and he should be as is natural for anyone who's family has called a nation or region home for centuries. Why is this man not allowed to be proud of his country and Africa as a whole? The fact that Usman and Izzy took offense to a few facts from Dricus shows that they might be the ones with the race problem. They're projecting an insecurity about themselves by belittling and threatening a fellow African. They're champions, they can take the high road and simply ignore Dricus or politely disagree. Dricus didn't take anything away from them. He's simply building his narrative for his future title implications with some factual information that was by no means nefarious, but merely to garner more support and interest in his rise in the UFC. What he said was perfectly normal and at the very most could be interpreted as a simple jab at a couple potential future opponents. Anything beyond that is kinda disgusting and if you're reaching that far to grab onto some kind of race oriented narrative here, you need to reevaluate your thought processes instead of blurting out whatever you think gets the most views.
