I honestly think the lead up to the fight effected izzy also. Sean verbally bullied him and it was hard to watch. Izzy was right to me as a fan that fight was a bad dream. Mostly cause I expected izzy to piece him up.

@@samuelhunter4631the difference is he was on his backfoot the whole fight and sean doesn’t overextend like gastelum(or whitaker, pereira and costa). He is a pressure fighter and he basically nullified izzy completely who is more of a counterstriker. Sean won fair and square.

Dricus was the fight he wanted. He would've taken that as serious as the pereira fight.
Teddy Atlas "Adesanya wasn't as Bruce Lee-like as he normally is." That's why Izzy is one of my favorite fighters, because he uses alot of stuff Bruce Lee talked about HOWEVER in this fight, Sean was doing something Bruce had mentioned: "The best defense, is a defensive offense." Stricklad was coming forward with constant pressure and offense, while maintaining a strong defense. Tough to deal with!

He's Bruce Lee because he's a counter fighter. He got content in countering everyone as the champ instead of pressure like his kickboxing fights and early mma fights.

@@DwarfDt yeah Bruce did say that the counter fighter has the advantage. Because in order to attack your opponent, you have to get close enough for them to intercept or counter you. But he also said you can't only counterfight and you need to be able to lead. Tho I understand him getting the belt and being more hesitant to take risks and lose it; but that's a criticism alot of MMA fans have of him and it's understandable

Izzy was fighting Sean Strickland, Sean Strickland was also fighting Sean Strickland. The fight was a man with nothing more to prove vs a man with everything to prove to himself. Sean disbelief in himself and his determination to prove it to himself willed him to win this fight. Izzy got a bit comfortable, especially riding off the high of finishing Poa when Poa dispatched Strickland rather quickly
Ufc be hypnotizing fighters. How many times we heard "it was like a bad dream" "i didnt show up" .....
My favorite fighter hope you can get the belt back
Adesanya didn't underestimate him, and he wasn't "moving in slow motion" either. He fought a guy who knew how to beat him and who had already thoroughly cultivated the exact style to do so his entire career. To beat Strickland in a rematch he would need to make significant adjustments to his style, at least for that fight.

Sean broke him In that fight. Imagine having just avenging your loss to your biggest rival to then fight a guy that should not have chance against you on paper. To then getting beat to the punch, dominated in every exchange. Your defense don’t work and your offensive striking is all blocked. That last round you could see that Izzy was broken mentally. There were no -Willing to die in there. It was only don’t want to this anymore let me loose so I can get home. Hopefully he can find his inner fighter spirit again.

Loss or not, izzy is in my opinion an absolute beast. He is smaller than lot of his opponents,and still have the strength and the mental to put them down, it's easier to talk a lot when you don't have your feet inside a ring or octagon, so my respect to every fighters, and izzy for being such a great fighter.

Really surprised he wasn't able to land some kicks on strickland
The best part is that becuse is his Brother that asking Izzy things his Brother did a amazing job. I was so impressed by both of them. I dont think a reporter could done the same job becuse izzys Brother dose not need to be scared to Ask him anything. Well Done

I thought set up the kicks better but yup good gameplan by Sean's team
This was only a week after the fight? Respect to Izzy for opening up and not pretending like it didn't happen. He's still one of the greats in the UFC and he'll have many more chances.

Correct me if I’m wrong but from the movie, it seems like whenever Izzy & Eugene are butting heads or not connecting, he’s lost.

I feel that you held back on Strickland, held back bad... He out-puzzled you in that one. It is a puzzle you could have solved, but in that moment, it evaded you. ANZAC'll be back! 😄
I feel like that was just a weird one where he fights him again and sees the openings.
Izzy was having to much fun in life he needed to be focused in a different way
Huge Stylebender fan. He and Anderson Silva will always be my two favorites. But act like you still care. The DUI in training camp, the movie release, the complete and utter lack of power on the shots. The image of Sean Strickland taunting as time wound down and Izzy was still backing up. The feints, jabs, and leg kicks don't work anymore. You're one of the best of all time Izzy but do you really want to get back in there? No adjustments at all for years.

@@EzReditshe wasn’t losing badly…. That’s an exaggeration. Part of his game plan was to let Alex open up and all of their fights. Izzy was winning rounds, but he got caught by that Layton power that Alex had. This was pure strategy.
It sounds like he basically never recovered from the first knockdown.
99.9% of fighters would’ve been finished in the first round. Izzy fought 4 more rounds. That in itself is impressive. Underrated toughness

At the start of video thought Adesanya was rolling weed.
Everyone has a switch. Anyone can get touched. If they run it back don’t be surprised if it’s Sean’s turn to hit the mat. Y’all must have forgotten about the rematch with Mr 🏹
Izzy should retire maybe after 1 more fight. Woodley said the sammeeee thing about the Usman fight about Noodle Arms and bad dream and it was all downhill from there
When you gonna fight Alex again?
Izzy Bring back that Dog Collar For Your Next Fight!✊🏿 Unleash!
That series of punches early on in the fight took a lot out of him, I think that explains why he was feeling weak for the rest of the fight… good save though, he finished on his feet
💥💥💥💥
Izzy. just 1 head kick and you could have finished Strickland. and straight punches
His mind got messed up at most of the pre-fight face-off. He got booed and that affected him in a way of you asked me. It was a mental block
Remember, contender izzy is more dangerous than champ izzy
Objective breakdown champ!
Not an Izzy fan at all, whenever he does a loss video, he just makes it seem like he doesn’t show up instead of the other fighter completely shutting him down.
This gotta be a reupload
Izzy just needed a reset, you worked hard for it all. I know you don’t care bc I’m just some random in the comments, but good to see you get a WELL DESERVED break! But it will be 3 time middleweight champ soon!

please Izzy. Add head kicks ans straight punches.
Hopefully this gives Izzy the humility he so desperately needs
