The only reason you may find different is the conditions imposed upon them by the 1%er/Elites and then the rulers in Nigeria. Otherwise if everyone had enough you would see ppl behaving totally different.

New level of respect for "Style bender". Dude is humble outside of the octagon. He seems cocky af inside. Maybe he's just confident and I've been mis reading him. I like his demeanor and attitude. I like how his Pops handles his finances for him. Gotta keep it in the family. Much respect ✊🏽.
