This fight was something else. I've never seen Israel look so small. Pereira looked like a video game final boss that you are supposed to lose to. Even though I'm emotionally invested in Israel's career I feel like these too are something special and a real treat for us. I hope to see the rematch in half a year. It is too exciting for me to see it sooner.

I think Alex is too big for 185 he should be fighting at 205 he looked overly huge and I believe the commentators stated his last fight against Strickland Alex was 215 on fight night. that's insane. You could see how he was pushing Izzy around in the clinch and when Izzy tried those trips

@@user-cx9gq2ud6t that's not entirely true he has fought guys that were in the realm of being same size or bigger. I mean Kevin G was big different attributes like less height but more weight. Paulo Costa. Romero. Alex was like yan vs izzy though and everyone wants to make that Izzy's excuse but remember izzy said in the leadup to his fight vs yan... he said he wasn't putting on weight and would come into the fight like a middleweight because that's where he feels comfortable and wouldn't sacrifice the hours of training he has at that weight just to put on some more weight to not be bullied on the ground. He lost the fight for not leaving his comfort zone. He was expected to lose that fight because of that choice. But izzy thought it was the right choice. I think in this fight that whole message of not leaving his comfort zone is a very real component of Izzy's career. He got comfortable with decision wins. He got comfortable blaming decision wins on opponents not forcing him to stop them. He got comfortable as the champ. He came into the fight looking like he was in his peak doing extremely well but what happened? Blame it on the weight advantage but izzy chose this and he claimed it was not a disadvantage for him to be weighing how he usually weighs against a bigger opponent. Blame it on izzy not going for the win? Ya I think that's it. He got comfortable going to decisions and he got caught a couple mins before getting another decision win. He got comfortable going to decisions so much that he might've even lost the touch of getting a finish. If there's risk involved he might not pursue a finish. If there's the thought that he wins the decision he gets passive. When a guy came along that was telling him that he would not get to a decision and izzy was gonna have to finish him if he wanted the win guess what happened.

I think it was intentional. Watch Dan Hardy’s WarRoom. In his breakdown he shows how Pereira likes to move people into strikes. He throws a kick they move left into his left hand. Izzy might have been trying to avoid that by backing up and then using Pereira’s inexperience in the cage against him. Idk it’s a guess, it also could have been that you have this massive zombie walking towards you.

@@wesleyharmon8231 well Izzys style and plan is to strike and set up from a distance and also counterpunch, what he usually does is use his height advantage and circle out of the way, but with Alex having the same reach and hooks as a threat he couldnt just do that so easy, but then with Alex moving forward he is not gonna stay still and accept to trade punches in a shorter range either as he respects Alex power and chances in these exchanges so thats why he was more against the cage as usual. In the rematch if he doesnt want that he has to either circle out of the way before he backed up too much which aint easy and eventually you end up there too (the octagon is not that many steps big) or/and try to put some pressure himself but then if Alex doesnt back down and goes for wilder short range exchanges I dont think thats good for Izzy so I think he did good, it would be a better strategy to wrestle more in critical moments (and better) and that with how he did scoring more points I think he wins the rematch even though he can always get caught when Pereira goes for a all or nothing KO

I think Izzy’s problem with Pereira is that his (Izzy’s) kickboxing is, even if slightly better, nullified; his height advantage nullified; both have equally bad grappling; with the difference between the two being the power in their hands. The result doesn’t mean that Pereira will beat everyone Izzy has beat, but it does mean Pereira is Izzy’s boogeyman!

It was honestly a good stoppage by Goddard because after looking at the slow mo highlight, Izzy was getting CRACKED with those punches. Izzy should buy Goddard lunch tomorrow for stopping the fight when he did because he was about 2 or 3 punches away from getting sent to the shadow realm for a second time by the same guy. He may be a kickboxer but Pereira's hands are not a joke. Once he connects, those hands are lethal. Especially that left hook.

I just went back to re-watch Round 2 of the fight and I cannot for the life of me see how someone scores that Round for Izzy. Alex was more aggressive that round, landed the most damaging shots (including a head kick), defended Izzy's take down attempts while getting plenty of body shots in at the same time, and he capped off the round with the signature moment in taking Izzy down. Everyone always says, damage is the biggest factor in deciding a round. Well in the case of Round 2, Alex dished out way more damage than he took.

I thought Izzy walking out with no theatrics and taking pereira down showcased a certain lack of confidence. You can play around with your walkout and you can stay on your feet with guys you know you'll beat on your feet, but Izzy didn't do those things. I think pereira occupied some significant head space deep down in izzy's mind, and pereira came out with a confidence that none of izzy's recent opponents have had. For an opponent to beat izzy they have to press forward and take risks, unlike romero and cannonier, and that takes confidence.

As a massive Izzy fan, Izzy fought a near perfect fight until he lost, and it wasn't enough. To his credit he almost dropped Periera in the first round. It was a fun fight. Periera was aggressive at the exact right moments and went for it. Conserved his power and energy well. He should move up to 205 and be double champ, although some of the bigger guys might use wrestling and jiu jitsu and take him into the deep end, but with his striking and power and size I think he's talented enough to be a double champ.

Adesanya got bullied by a bigger opponent. That pretty much sums up the fight. The only problem with that is Adesanya is about as big as Middleweights should get. Romero and Costa are more built and that works because they have a height disadvantage. Adesanya sacrifices some of that power for his reach advantage. Pereira was BIGGER and TALLER than Adesanya and still Middleweight. I think that lends a great deal of validity to ONE's hydration testing and it would be interesting to see this fight again with both fighters truly being 185-pounders.

@Year Zero Izzy was scared 😨. Of Alex power. Alex was dead on his feet from rd2 to rd4. He couldn't throw a punch but just like usman vs Edward's izzy wanted a decision instead of finishing him

There is a huge difference in saying someone is scared and respects. He respects his power and knows his power. He wasn’t scared🤷🏾‍♂️

I think you’d have to consider that Iz is at the top of his powers in MMA at the moment ,whilst Alex still has a lot more MMA skills to improve and he’s done a 5 rounder now - do we really want to see a rematch straight away? Very risky for Iz if he loses again….

Yeah I think the immediate rematch case is kinda hard to make tbh- he's lost to this guy 3 times in a row. The problem is- who else does Izzy fight now?

Nobody else can touch and beat Adesanya like Pereira and I have no hate towards Pereira for that, some people just get the other guys number, but to say that a 4th loss to 1 person would jeopardize his whole legacy is F***ing STUPID! Don’t even say that. It’s not Going to change his legacy.

This just shows man that no matter how much skill you have at the end of the day if you go in swinging to knock the person's head off his shoulders with overwhelming firepower, your more than likely gonna win. Right now the Heavyweight and middleweight divisions are dominated by head hunting powerhouses.

The second wind of Pereira is top knotch! Adesanya clearly would have pulled off the win if not for the heart and determination of Pereira. I have never seen Adesanya with this look on his face in any fight, I think he was getting comfortable as far as points which clouded his judgement. He could have won if he would have kept his distance, unfortunately Pereira is taller and has the same ability to control range. Great fight and props to both men, both savage warriors!
I rewatched Adesanya vs Pereira…
