Hollywood star Chris Pratt has retracted his critical comments towards Israel Adesanya after his win at UFC 276 last weekend.
The Jurassic World and Guardians of the Galaxy star was in attendance at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas to watch the middleweight champion defend his world title last weekend. But he was unimpressed, as were a number of fans, with the lack of hard-hitting action as Adesanya cruised to a dominant five-round victory to retain his belt for the fifth time.
"I’m going to say this as humbly as I can," Pratt said during the ESPN post-fight show. "As a guy who never stepped in the Octagon. I don’t know this game, I’m just an actor. But I’m not a fan. I’m not a fan of coming out, like, all that talk and then just kind of putting on a little bit of a pitter-patter. I’m like, ‘Come on, man. Cash on that.’ You’ve got to cash on that promise of being so bada**.
