I could see prime Silva finishing Pereira, maybe. And he might’ve got the best of Adesanya 4/10 times in a hypothetical series. I think that’s realistic, Anderson isn’t a mythical figure. He never fought strikers close to these two.
Pereira was fast tracked, that should come at a cost. As far as mma is concerned, Izzy won almost every round, took a hard fought loss and then emphatically righted that wrong. Kickboxing matches mean absolutely nothing here. Pereira needs to reestablish himself against a solid MW.
Pereira needs to put some work in this division after getting ko’d like that, at least one fight. Izzy is right that he had a cushy rise to the title, and the kickboxing matches don’t have any actual merit here. 185 is in a weird spot now though.
If they did Dricus vs Izzy and Khamzat vs...
Dana and Paddy really just tried to step to Ariel with 10 year old logic & insults, he thoroughly made them look like morons. It’s so pathetically ironic that Paddy is revelling in this bullshit with Dana fucking White sitting across from him.
Disappointed in Paddy honestly, I wanted to root...
I've only ever heard Colby say that he loves Muslims and respects their beliefs, and I have never heard him talk bad about Palestinians. He did call Chicago a dump once, so maybe you have a point there?
Artem is going to have a very hard time winning a defamation case against Conor, he hasn’t come close to defaming him from what we’ve heard. Plus, any reputation that Artem could have tarnished is owed to Conor anyways, lol.
I think the ball is in Israel's court, he has an advantage fighting aggressively when matched up against Pereira, and I think he can really pull away with the fight if he does so, but that puts him in considerably more danger. If he's too cautious, it could amount to a close decision.
Khamzat should be ranked #1 in the 178.5 division. I’m not ready to put him above Colby at WW, he went down to the wire with Burns, and Colby is on a level above Burns, as shown with their championship bouts. That may be MMA math, but the UFC seems to take rounds with the champ into heavy...
Everyone gave McGregor shit for getting rocked by Diaz and five years later he had the welterweight champion on skates. Nate is just a true fighter and sometimes fans forget it.
I’m actually interested in this fight, even if Khamzat is Nate’s nightmare matchup, a fights a fight. But I’m not getting my hopes up it will actually happen.
This is narrow minded, conquering overwhelming emotions is a lot simpler and easier when you have someone trustworthy to open up to. I live right beside a grown man who thinks just like this, he lies about many fights he's won, how many women he's slept with and brags about how much he can...
No, that's a fair point. Full Send is a joke and there is a lot of "reporters" like them. But if he's claiming they can't do his job of being an elite athlete, I'm gonna be fair to the accredited, professional journalists and hold him to their standard when he says that he can do their job.
I didn't really agree with him here, he hasn't worked or proven to be a journalist, which is actually an extremely competitive field, just that he can get clicks on a personal Youtube channel after having become famous through sports first. Sports that become popular through media and promotion...
For every banger Izzy fight, we’ll get 2 or 3 uneventful decisions. But whatever, at the end of the day he’s just that much better.
Pereira and Izzy will bring the best out of each other.
Adesanya was evading Pereira and beginning to smash him pretty good before he came back with that nice left hook in their last match. Adesanya likely carries the speed and technique advantage still, especially in mma where the distance & timing is a little different, and where he holds a lot...
