Israel Adesanya's girlfriend Charlotte Powdrell became a center of controversy following their break-up. Adesanya has achieved immense success both inside and outside the cage, and the middleweight champion is one of the few bonafide superstars in the UFC.

His level of achievement has brought with it an enormous amount of attention, and he's amassed 7 million followers on Instagram alone. 'The Last Stylebender' usually refrains from posting anything overtly personal online, but yesterday Israel Adesanya uploaded a series of scathing posts about his ex-girlfriend Charlotte Powdrell.

Powdrell, a native of New Zealand, is a real estate agent. Prior to her career in the property industry, she worked in nursing.

Adesanya's dating life is not often displayed on his various social media profiles, which does highlight the surprising nature of yesterday's scathing rant.

It seems that 'The Last Stylebender' hasn't finished sending Charlotte Powdrell, as well as any other possible leeches in his life, a message. Earlier today, he posted a snippet from his post-fight interview following his epic victory over Kelvin Gastelum, where he won the interim title.

"They stay waiting, like, 'Oooh what can we get from him?' Look, I don't mind being used, I just don't want to be misused or abused. 'Cause if you can't be used, then you're useless. So if someone wants to come through and make some work then bring something to the table that's substantial and we can work. No free rides over here."

Israel Adesanya takes a veiled jab at Charlotte Powdrell during his UFC 290 appearance

Israel Adesanya does not come across as a person who would quietly walk away when someone tries to mess with him physically, emotionally, and financially! His scathing social media posts attacking Charlotte Powdrell stand testimony to this.

While it might seem enough to sever the ties and move on in life, 'The Last Stylebender' did not allow his ex-girlfriend to get off the hook. Israel Adesanya attended the UFC 290 PPV event to support his teammate and headliner Alexander Volkanovski.

Two things about the reigning middleweight champion became the talking point in the aftermath of the event - A series of N-bombs that Adesanya dropped on Dricus Du Plessis and his t-shirt with a cryptic message.

Adesanya showed up for the event wearing a black t-shirt that had the text 'he's not your bank' printed in the front. The MMA community speculated this to be a veiled jab at his ex-girlfriend Charlotte Powdrell. Watch the champion flaunt the t-shirt below, courtesy of UFC's official Instagram account:
