This is all cope. He's nothing but excuses when he loses or is boring. The TRUTH is after Costa he was on Usada radar for Gyno and had to go off cycle. Thats why when he leg kicks Costa, a Brazilian he left bruises. But he landed tons of midsection shots to Jan, a pollack, and couldn't even mark him. He knew he was close to getting busted. Oh and he has gyno again so he'll look good against Whittaker

I don't believe this "bored" shit coming from Adecomastia at all, and his Gynecologist should have given him a better story than "It's from smoking weed" regarding the titty fiasco. Its just not plausible, nobody believes it. It was a ridiculous story to give. EDIT: Yes, I know you can get gynecomastia from more than just steroid use but if you are going to give an excuse choose a more plausible one rather than the one you think will sound coolest to your 16 year old fans.

Yes, he does make a reference to being "bored", first in the Vettori 2 fight (saying that Vettori was being defensive and not trying to win) and again in the Jan fight. But then he goes on to say he has cut out the deadweight and is feeling reinvigotated. I think he was just riffing in a long interview and we can't take every single word so seriously.

I agree with this, he felt his power a few times and wasn't as agressive with counters as he usually is afterwards. Besides what the "commentary" that fight would lead you to believe. He was having flashbacks of Pereira knocking him out cold in kickboxing maybe. Or the fact at that point, before Glover handled him easily, "legendary polish power" was literally a thing. Izzy can say what he wants about being rock solid mentally, but everyone doubts themselves at some points, everyone has fear, it's what keeps us alive.

I don't get the Wilkinson and Vettori comparison. Vettori has shown he's a high caliber fighter and is obviously leagues above Wilkinson, so, naturally, Izzy's going to look much more dominant against Wilkinson. The better the competition, the harder it is to look dominant.

@TheWeasleMMA

2 жыл бұрын

The approach was different. Izzy said he got bored because Vettori was trying to survive. Same with Wilkinson but Izzy went after him quickly. That's just one example. When the first time they fought, Izzy fought differently.

He's honestly becoming the Jon Jones of 185. If he beats Rob again there will be nobody left that actually gets ppl excited which hurts ppvs. One of the "issues" that comes with being so great.

He's bored because he expects fighters to come to him so he can counter them and when that doesn't happen he's forced to come forward which he doesn't like such as the Romero fight

Adesanya has a ton of excuses for any perceived shortcomings within his own fights. Realistically Izzy has been champ for just over 2 years and defended 3 times. Izzy has a brilliant fight IQ but I do question his ability when his opponents don't play directly into his game plan. Izzy was getting out patienced and out counterstriked by Blachowicz, and with the Yoel fight I think the blame goes both ways. Izzy started kind of aggressive but he got drilled by an overhand early and completely shut down. Romero never really started, he was waiting on Adesanya to bring the action to him.

I really enjoy Izzy fighting style and i'm a huge fan of him but honestly I think this is pure BS. You are telling me he got bored going agaisn't the Light Heavyweight Champion which would propel him 10 steps closer to a fight with Jon Jones who was starting to become his biggest Arch Nemesis in terms of Rivalry and Competitiveness? Nah. I think he is just finding a way to justify the defeat in his own mind and trying to push that mental confidence reset button in order to take a shot at it again. In a way that fight "showed" to Izzy himself that he wasn't prepared for that weight which probably made him re-think his chances agaisn't Jon Jones who is the best of all of them(even if he lost a notch or two in terms of quality). I don't buy this excuse.

@Kaaashhhhhhh

You got the right idea (something along these lines). If Usman and Adesanya can never fight, then they should try to get super fights against top contenders in each other's divisions. E.g. Adesanya vs Colby or Khamzat, and Usman vs Whittaker or Vettori. And yes I know those aren't realistic and they aren't true super fights. Could Israel get another LHW title shot after stacking a couple MW/LHW wins, and if he wins the belt, rematch Jan? Usman's biggest fight is against Khamzat (in his own division), otherwise a superfight against a LW that dares come up (such as Islam, should he win the LW belt), because I doubt he would fight at MW if it's not for the belt. I like Usman but IDK if I believe he wanted to fight for the LHW belt (or if that idea was ever practical from the UFC's perspective).

Honestly who freaking knows. It depends on how authentic the fighter is being and there is literally no way for us (not knowing people close to him) to be able to tell. If Adesanya beats this Whittaker, I don't think Whittaker will ever be champ again. That is literally the only prediction I feel confident about.

Bored means: feeling weary because one lacks interest in one's current activities.

That’s why so many people love Khabib. Had an 0 to lose and always pressed the gas pedal even though no one he fought was on his level. The pace he put on Gaethje was one of the craziest things I’ve ever seen.

He was referring to being "bored" during the fight because Jan wasn't rushing in and giving him counterattacking opportunities, not being bored with fighting or the UFC in general. Obviously he's trying to reconcile his loss, whether with himself, fans, or both. Way to completely misrepresent a statement and craft an entire story out of nothing. You're better than that.

My take- Izzy beats Robert on the scorecards first of all ,Izzy owns the MW division...theres no real contender to his title. Now i think his ego cant let his L go against Jan (who lost his title to Glover) Notice the UFC isnt PRing Izzy the same,especially after losing to Jan...so maybe hes bored in the MW div. What contenders do you have left he hasnt fought? Till? UFC needs to replenish that division . so hes kinda stuck at MW unless he goes down to WW (which he has said he wont vs Usman) or tries going up through LHW id love to see him go through the top 5 of LHW ranks ....Jiri Prochazka would be a nice matchup or Thiago Santos,...before he faced the LHW champ (whomever it would be ) Great video as always

Go look at the embedded an countdown literally “this is most focused I’ve ever been, I can’t describe how excited I am.”

Lets not forget that adesanya and silva styles depend on counter strikes. This doesn’t mean that they’re bored. They wait for their opponents to throw something and then they catch their opponents with a counter strike. The problem with this kind of fighters especially nowadays that they don’t get to fight aggressive fighters all the time which lead to some boring fights.

Reyes and Jan would also be competitive matchups that stacks well against Adesanya. His style is nearly unbeatable at Middleweight, Whittaker has the best chance now, even that is not much. He seems too good for middle weights unless Khamzat is this legendary cage wrestler who can live upto the current hype, or Whittaker fights a perfect fight without any slips and Izzy is bad on that day.

@TheWeasle I think u forgot the most recent one to undergo this: Amanda Nunes She fought Penna like someone who didn't hit the gym in a long time

I think the boredom came before even going to the ground. It threw their whole team off how defensive he was being. He's fought for a long time. There's no competition that feels exciting. And I think there's some unhappiness with the UFC and how they have done things with him. Feelings of lack of promoting him or getting behind him on some things the way they wanted. That's been insinuated by him and his coach. It's pretty normal for guys around 32 to go through profound psychological changes. Your motivations for why you do stuff changes. You become much more aware of your own mortality. It gets hard to throw yourself into combat, to pull the trigger. Most people can't find something to replace that fire of youth. Most men will go through a few years of soul-searching, and only some can find themselves in their mid to late 30s a desire and reason to give it another go. Find a renewed purpose, that is enough to push yourself and even be successful, but it's not the same as having that fire of youth. This is why so many men still have it in the gym, but can't perform when it matters. We become more sentimental and aware of the mortality of ourselves and others. Driving your elbow into someone's busted up face with blood and sweat, it's easy when you are preoccupied with what you're chasing and don't think about the human being sentimentally. You don't think about the consequences. But now you see and begin to feel them all around you.
