Recency bias is a cruel mistressMaybe Izzy just wasn't that great? He went life or death with Kelvin Gastelum, couldn't get anything done against Romero, and Whittaker arguably beat him in their rematch. I don't think he was ever as far ahead of the competition as people were acting like he was.
Those fights weren't recentRecency bias is a cruel mistress
maybe you should watch another sport?Maybe Izzy just wasn't that great?

Everyone has a bad night.Maybe Izzy just wasn't that great? He went life or death with Kelvin Gastelum, couldn't get anything done against Romero, and Whittaker arguably beat him in their rematch. I don't think he was ever as far ahead of the competition as people were acting like he was.
I'm (obviously) not an elite world-class striker like Adenasya, but I'm struggling to see how you can mentally recover from getting pieced up by someone like Sean Strickland, lol.
Yikes.
So true, I think the true test is whether he can repeat it. I don't see him having a long reign, but I cannot pinpoint an exact reason (I do question his discipline too, but I could be wrong on that).That's funny as shit. The real answer is pretty simple. Sean had a night where he could pull the trigger effortlessly and Izzy hesitated. Nothing more, nothing less.
He is an intelligent fighter who had a bad night. Izzy is an incredible fighter.Maybe Izzy just wasn't that great?
