israel laid the blueprint but fighters haven't used it -- he went after alex. these other guys are just waiting around and fighting slow.

ultimately this rematch was too soon and too quickly put together for that hopping hobo jiri.

The Alex Pereira story is so crazy....top tier kickboxer who only got into MMA after seeing an interview where former opponent Israel Adesanya was talking shyt about him.

He got into MMA to hunt down Izzy, took his title, (loss the rematch) but then won a belt at LHW which is something Adesanya failed to do when he lost to Jan Blachowich. :whew:


Be careful who you make enemies with, brehs! I need to see that AP mini-series or feature documentary :wow:
crazy how he came in looking like a villain now he’s probably the most loved/feared fighter on the roster

Honestly, if he were able to stop the take downs he'd have a chance against Aspinall.

Izzy definitely don't want these problems again.
I'd see Alex on the lighter end of HW which is fine. He'd be great at 240 - 245.

Give him Ciryl Gane as a heavyweight debut fight.

He had Kendrick level hate before we even knew

He hated the way Izzy talked, he hated the way Izzy walked, he hated the way Izzy was champ

that's a tall task. izzy can fight intelligently with insane power coming back from all types of fighters

there ain't too many guys that can keep up real pressure knowing they're the weaker striker. even jiri's single hobo brain cell said nah fukk that after one straight
