Рет қаралды 188,942
Күн бұрынBLUEPRINT to a once in a life time fight. Legendary legacy is at stake with Israel Adesanya vs Alex Pereira 3 at UFC 281. The winner of this fight becomes the king of kings. If Adesanya wins, he avenges his iconic loss and becomes the greatest middleweight in mma history. If Pereira wins, he will have conquered kickboxing and MMA.
To preview this epic fight, I give the path of victory for both fighters, the blueprint of their best patterns against each other. Many fight fans of Lawrence Kenshin Striking Breakdowns know that I predicted the rise of Style Bender, as well as the rise of Po Atan. Will the third prediction for the outcome of this fight come true? We will see at UFC 281.

Israel Adesanya vs. Alex Pereira 4 Post Fight Thoughts: A little late in my Israel Adesanya vs. Alex Pereira prediction, but eventually it came true ;). The blue print has always been clear since the first two fights: a) focus on the long range jabs and crosses, and when that overhand is available b) use left kicks in southpaw In this fight, Izzy simply got much more advanced at setting these up. Tactically countering Pereira's aggression when he's up against the cage was beautiful. I wish I could break it down! I was sad for a whole week after the third fight, but now the prediction has come true and I'm so happy for Izzy to deliver his masterpiece! After this fight, Izzy said "Be happy my friend x" ;)

Man, Pereira did that again. He got Izzy confident, like other opponents, and then left hook for the TKO. I bet on Pereira, because of size, technique, and the fact that he’s been fighting against more solid kickboxing competition in Glory. Everyone kinda forgets Izzy’s fight against Blachowicz when he was loosing while standing and the smaller difference in reach played It’s part, and Jan is a technical striker. But I gotta give him props. No one fighting Adesanya ever thinks he Will have to train takedown defense or clinches, and Izzy put his bet on that and it was working really well.

Well, you were right about how this fight *should* have played out. Izzy's right cross was landing almost at will. If only he'd used it more, instead of the ineffective clinch that was just giving a tired Pereira time to rest. Edit: Apparently Izzy injured his leg at some point during the fight so now the clinching makes a lot more sense.

POST FIGHT THOUGHTS HERE Well, both Alex Pereira and Israel Adesanya fought as predicted in my UFC 281 blueprint. Adesanya out landed Pereira with straight punches in orthodox and scored kicks throughout the fight. The right hand was open to hurt Pereira and thats what he hurt him with early on. However, I said to never count Pereira out no matter which round. Pereira reserved some energy late and then poured on the pressure like he always does. I predicted Izzy to win and wanted him to win, but this is the fight game. Pereira did what we said he would do in his path to victory. What did you think of the fight?

I was really disappointed with the fight, specifically Izzy's decision to keep clinching. In the first few rounds, he was absolutely outclassing Pereira in the striking by doing what you suggested. And nothing wrong with _trying_ the clinch (it even got him a free round through top control) but why did he _keep_ doing it over and over again when it wasn't working, he didn't need it and it was just giving a hurt and tired Pereira time to recover? It's really frustrating. That's 3 times now Pereira has beaten Adesanya despite not fighting nearly as well. Anyway, I'm not trying to be an entitled fan here; obviously Izzy's disappointment will be far greater than all of ours put together.

Maybe I'm a hater, but I never rated Izzy as highly as other people do. Yes he did great against Costa and Whittaker the first time, but what about his other fights? Gastehum hurt him multiple times despite being clearly not elite. He played extremely safe against Vettori and Cannonier. Then there were two extremely close fights against Romero and Whittaker the second time, where I scored against him both times. And there was the Jan fight as well, when he not only got outgrappled, but also outstruck. I just saw him as having a judge-friendly style rather than being dominant. There were criticisms on his opponents that they weren't willing to play his game, so he was just taking the easy decision bay staying on the outside. Today Alex went right to his face the whole fight, and in reality he couldn't do much beside that shot after the bell. Saying he is the greatest striker in the UFC was ridiculous.

You have to keep in mind that MMA is not kickboxing and cannot fight like kickboxing in mma, although he does not wrestle but managed to defend his belt 5 or 6 Time in a Sport Like mma where most champions have a good foundation in wrestling . there are hardly any non-grappling MMA fighters who are so successful in MMA. izzy striking is so good that he beats all-rounders like robert whittaker Twice. he is definitely one of the top 3 Or the best Stricker in mma history. izzy was good against Alex and he caused Alex a lot of trouble. Alex himself said it was the toughest fight of his career. He even won most of the rounds in that fight, don't get me wrong, he still lost, but to say he didn't do much against Alex is just wrong

Great analysis, this is the stuff that made me subscribe to your channel so long ago, also congrats on getting the predictions right, it's really remarkable. Considering Glover Teixeira is a training partner of Pereira, it's quite possible that the fight may have some moments where it'll go on the ground. I don't believe that Pereira would intuitively use bjj on a fight like this, but if he's smart and prepared he can definitely use the threat of the takedown to open holes on Israel's striking defense (though considering Glover's style, which is so honest and direct, that may be unlikely).

@MartialArtsTechniquesideas Жыл бұрын
Izzy should be a Glory champ, he got robbed in the title fight just like he got robbed against Pereira in the first fight. While both of them where kickboxer, Izzy was the more technical, so the better striker, but Pereira got the power and their fight proved this. But since Pereira continued while Izzy had to faced wrestlers I think Pereira the technical edge vanished.

I think the only thing more stupid than Izzy fight VS Yoel Romero is his Thai clinch against Poatan, in a fight with this calibre, you don't mess around, you don't waste time clinching doing nothing, if you don't go for a knock out then get ready to be knocked out, this is what a fight against Poatan is about, the more you wait thinking that you're scoring, the bigger is the chance to get your ass knocked out.

Even IF Adesanya was “winning” those bouts, that was Alex before he became the p4p best in the world. Adesanya couldn’t cut it against the best kickboxers in the world and has been fighting subpar strikers since. If he doesn’t have anything other than striking to trouble Alex with, he will lose. Alex is the better striker, period.
@MartialArtsTechniquesideas Жыл бұрын
Fair enough but Izzy style is more suited for MMA now and he was already the better striker before. He would just be the better MMA striker this time, again.

I love the breakdown. I see Alex winning just due to Adesanya's boxing ability being shaky somewhat. His jab isn't good and when he threw his cross, Alex KO'd him badly.

Neither of them have had to fight excellent wrestlers/grapplers. Adesanya looked awful against Jan on the mat and Jan isn't even a wrestler lol I'm convinced Khamzat Chimaev would beat both these guys.
@mrt445 Жыл бұрын
Izzy definitely has. Also I find it strange that people think takedowns are that important, it's what you do on the ground that counts. Wrestling is dominant because of the athleticism and awareness wrestlers have in different positions not the fact that they can take people down.

@@mrt445 No he hasn't. If you're talking about Brunson then I'm sorry but that fight was a disgusting display of low fight IQ from Brunson, dude was just bum rushing from the bell. Brunson isn't an elite fighter anyway. Adesanya has excellent takedown defense against the cage but very basic BJJ escapes. Aside from that his grappling is low level. I guarantee that he would lose to an elite offensive wrestler/grappler. Someone like Khamzat Chimaev has the wrestling and submission skills to finish Adesanya and Po Atan.
@mrt445 Жыл бұрын
@@_DioBrando_ You no longer need extremely high level grappling to become an MMA champ, especially in the heavier weight divisions. I picked Jan to beat Adesanya because he hits harder than Adesanya, and he's fought people who hot harder than Adesanya. Wrestlers are not even dominating the light heavyweight division right now.
