Błachowicz vs Izzy will depend a lot on the ref

[Dacha]

If fight gets to the ground, which likely will.
And Izzy stalls for a second, and ref stands them up for "inactivity", that would be biased refereeing imo because it may take more seconds to make progress or transition on the ground.

Thats kinda what happened against Vittori. Vitorri was going to finish Izzy on the ground if not for that ref.

[Askren’s chin]

You sound bitter and scared

 

[Handsome Goku]

Nope. That polish dude has bigger muscles therefore he will win.

Then he should just take him down over and over

 

[LilNicky95]

Get Cecil Peoples out of retirement ASAP Aunty Dana!!!!

Except for the right peck.

I think either Izzy dismantled him or Jan manages to land that one good bomb. Unlike Costa, Jan only needs one.

Hes a larger man in general.

Vettori never even passed Izzy's guard despite having minutes to work

Izzy will crush Jan and you will cry for the 5th time <45>

 

[Dacha]

All Izzy striking skills will be layed to rest once Jan gets in hold of him.

 

[Phisher]

The mythos about Adesanya's fight with Vettori is getting dumber as time advances.

The judge who scored that fight for Vettori is the same idiot who had Felder beating RDA.

Isn’t this true with almost any fight?

 

[sonhow]

Izzy was a child in that Vettori fight but won a rightful decision. If his grappling was a question mark then Tavares and Brunson would have done more. If Jan gets even one td Id be surprised.

 

[NurmaGOATedov]

Vettori won that fight. Adesanya is a fraud. Also lost against Romero.

 

[TheMessiah]

Goddard always breaks it up on the ground

 

[JKS]

Jan is gonna handle Izzy on the ground. This part of the fight is heavily overlooked. Jan has a very good wrestling and submission game when he applies a grappling focused gameplan. And Jan is gonna have a 20-25lb size edge here, that will be a factor once Jan starts working for TDs against the cage and gets top position.

Jan and his team aren't dumb. They know to focus on grappling for this fight. I am assuming neither is Izzy and his team, but even considering that, the edge still goes to Jan.

 

[daniel san]

Are you saying that Jan is a LNP fighter? Which fights has he been in where he got a takedown but the fighters were stood up by the ref? The outcome may depend on the ref, but it is highly unlikely it will be due to having the fighters stand up.

 

[Titan1980]

You can say this about every fight tho. A bad ref will destroy the match. That said I am not paying 70$ dollars to watch a man lay on top of another and wiggle around. Either do effective grappling or damage or fuck off. Ive seen far too many refs willing to just let one fighter lay on top of another and win the fight via positional control. This is the Ultimate FIGHTING Championship, not Ultimate Laying Prone for long periods of time doing absolutley nothing trying to game the rules Championship.

Izzy has underrated grappling it seems but Jan will be a lot bigger. Jan should try and use this advantage since he will prob be a lot stronger and it will nullify Izzy's speed and technical striking advantage.

 

[TRUS8888]

Jan's ability/willingness to check leg kicks will be a factor imo.

I believe this is something he is generally good at?

Ehh idk why you would say that. When was the last time Izzy was even taken down? That Vettori fight was a long time ago and Izzy is much more well rounded now. If Brunson had trouble taking him down then I don’t think Jan is that much of a threat. I admit I haven’t really watched many of Jan’s fights though.
