In an eyebrow-raising revelation, UFC champion Israel Adesanya, famously known as @stylebender, has declared that he won't be sending his kids to school because, in his words, "most of what they teach is useless."

In a punchy pre-fight interview ahead of his upcoming bout against Sean Strickland at UFC 293 in Australia, Israel threw a curveball, taking a wild off-topic swing at the traditional education system and why he's not planning to send his future kids to school.

Adesanya, known for his knockout skills inside the octagon and his outspoken nature outside of it, minced no words when he declared, "Honestly, f–k school." According to the champ, schools are essentially "created to create workers," and he's not buying into the idea that they're nurturing brilliant minds. 

With the conviction of a fighter stepping into the cage, Adesanya exclaimed, "We know what the f**k school was made for. Why are we pretending? We know school was created to create workers." 

Adesanya's argument goes something like this: "They teach you calculus, but do you ever use it in real life? Have you ever seen someone calculate the trajectory of a flying apple before catching it? I think not!"

He added, "I still don't know what the f–k is X. A lot of useless information got passed on to me at school. And I sucked at school because I was sh-t at memorizing. I didn't really learn anything."

He continued, "And don't get me started on history. I mean, who needs to know the names of all those ancient kings and queens? I'd rather be learning how to do a perfect spinning back kick!"

So, what's Adesanya's game plan for his own kids' education? Well, it seems he's got an unconventional strategy in mind. He plans to hire a tutor who will teach his children the basics from the comfort of home, but the rest of the day? That's reserved for adventure time. As Adesanya eloquently put it, "When I have kids, I'll have a tutor that's going to teach them from home from 9 am to midday... the rest of the day we're going to go on adventures."

And what are these adventures, you ask? Apparently, it's all about keeping his kids socially active. Adesanya intends to enroll them in activities like gymnastics and Jiu-Jitsu to ensure they interact with other kids and don't end up "socially awkward."

Adesanya's no-holds-barred take on education might be raising eyebrows, but there's no denying he's got a game plan both inside and outside the ring. Whether his approach to parenting will lead to future champions or mavericks, only time will tell. Stay tuned for the next round in this unconventional education saga!

Naturally, Adesanya's statement has sparked quite the online brawl, with people either nodding in agreement or raising their virtual eyebrows so high they almost fly off their foreheads.

As the debate rages on, it seems that Israel Adesanya is taking a stand against the conventional wisdom of education. Will his kids grow up to be academic rebels, or will they eventually find themselves grappling with the realities of life outside the cage? Only time will tell, but for now, it's safe to say that Adesanya has thrown down the gauntlet in this education showdown.
