Lol I never understood why people say these things...no UFC or "Dana" doesn't lose money when some star loses a fight! They make money on that fight then they make a new star out of the next guy...does it suck when a cash cow loses? Sure...but that's the fight game...always has been...always will be

No Dana won. Bc Izzy fans will still tune in and watch him main even a non title fight. Meanwhile Strickland just gained a ton of fans plus his fight weeks are always going to be crazy

You know what I saw, Izzy could not figure out Strickland's approach and his defense. Strickland was clever and his style is just weird but clever. Izzy looked confused and frustrated and just couldn't figure it out. He was not flat footed at all. I didn't think Strickland was going to win either but you can't take away from what he did. He showed unbelievable control and patience. Not star struck at all... Congratulations Strickland..

Exactly! And he figured out the distance, leg kick protection, grappling. I really think boxing is the superior standup form only if you can mitigate those other factors.....Izzy supposed to be the best MMA striker ever and for a CLINIC put on him with pure boxing.. Dude was like Mayweather in there tonight. One of the most masterful performances we've ever seen from a stand up chess match. Izzy looked fine, Strickland just made him look bad.the way many superior fighters do to inferior fighters. Lmao Izzy looked like he got stung by a hive of bees and run over by a Mack and Sean didn't even have a scratch 😂

I think it's not so much boxing vs whatever. For instance, Sean's front kicks were a KEY to his game, and he wasn't even throwing that many punches. It was more the style matchup. Sean was standing in front of Izzy and forcing him to lead, which Izzy doesn't do well. Sean didnt once launch himself at Izzy along the cage to be countered, which is what Izzy wanted, so he could catch him like Pereira II. But Sean never played his game, and pressure-countered the counter fighter, and his eyes and timing are so good because Sean does almost nothing but spar.@@mikerelva6915

Nightmare? The entire right & Trump supporters in America (which is like the UFC's entire American fanbase) are gonna go bonkers for Sean, he's the ideal champ demographics-wise. More importantly, you'll notice Sean is actually intelligent and calculated: he gets points for saying things like "cancel me", but then you notice his girlfriend is a quiet nerdy type, and he never ACTUALLY says anything that would really get him in hot water, like saying f*ggot post-fight, etc. You can tell he's not actually crazy or a trailer-park wife beater, he knows what he's doing.

@@user-io6eq9gt6wyou’re not wrong, most people are just retarded though

Izzy did looked drained af before the fight. Maybe he wanted that to awoke the inner Beast. But this particular weight cut he was closer to death realm. But it doesnt matter, Shaun came with a game plan and stick to it till the end. Master class performance and execution props to him

Honestly, Adesanya fought how he always fights, nothing different, it's been like this really in most of his fights unless someone pushes the fight against him and they get caught sometimes. He just met a guy today with excellent defense, dealt with the leg kicks very well, pushed him back the whole fight and Izzy couldnt catch him. It was close fight, no one ran away with the rounds really, but it was a clear win for Strickland. I just hate all this "He didn't look himself" and "He looked flat" ... he really looked and did the same he always does, moves a lot, kicks a lot, throws hands here and there with good defense. He just met a guy that made this close and had the patience to not get bothered too much by inactivity.

No izzy did not "look slow" he just hasn't fought anyone like Sean, who will be in your face, but yet manage distance and knows how to block strikes without reacting to every faint thrown his way.

I think that's maybe a similar analogy in that Izzy is clearly towards the tail end of his career. Judging by this fight though, I think Izzy will still struggle in the rematch. He's not Pereira, he's not gonna walk Sean down and hook off the body jab and 1-shot him. He's best in counter-mode, which is what he was trying to do tonight, but Sean countered him instead: I think Sean's timing is too good because he does nothing but spar, so he's got that deep-instinct timing like James Toney had: he saw everything coming and reacted properly over and over, and Izzy was feinting a lot and trying differne looks too. And Sean's right hand counter to Izzy's left hook that dropped him was PERFECTLY timed, and it was only r1- Sean had his rhythm immediately, almost like they'd sparred a bunch before @@elijahlogan7347

Insinuating Izzy was injured is complete disrespect to Stricklands performance. The fact Izzy ran away and made his coach do the post press conf speaks volumes. Izzy would be completely irrelevant if he didnt survive that final fight vs Alex. Hes finally getting exposed he has always gotten more credit than he deserves. His only success has come from being tall and having reach.
