UFC FN Riyadh On ESPN+ [2/1 at 12 pm ET] “Saturday Matinee” (Adesanya/Imavov)

[42 Monks]

He was actually fighting really well.

Just got caught lacking. He honestly should have reset after the eye poke instead of trying to look for an Alex Pereira moment..

he always fights well til he gets hit

 

[Kinguno]

Izzy looked better in this fight than in the last fight like he was much sharper even his footwork was much better

Izzy might as well move up to 205 given his age

Izzy ain’t been the same since the first Alex fight honestly he won the second one on a fluke. If Izzy wasn’t as washed or off his game he beats DDP.

 

[So UnThotful]

This been one of the worst posts fight interviews LOL

 

[Sir ZDuke]

What's with this idiot Felder's long ass questions. bytch this aint Charlie Rose

Just look at how good Jon Jones has been for the past 15 years.

It just shows you how difficult it is to stay at the top. Izzy, Usman etc. These guys were amongst the best at their peaks, but it's hard to sustain that level of performance.

Jon Jones still hasn't been beaten, though people might have an argument for the Dominick Reyes fight.

Breh said put so

What's with this idiot Felder's long ass questions. bytch this aint Charlie Rose

Especially when the dude doesn't speak English, keep it simple.

 

[Kinguno]

Khamzet next for the belt as long as Strickland doesn’t win because DDP vs Strickland 3 should come first

Then this guy should be next after another fight

 

[J Money]

It's over

Never really fukked with Izzy ass anyway

 

[Roid Jones]

Bones and GSP are GOAT level for sure.

GSP took 2 Ls, but came back and avenged those losses then went up, got the middle weight strap, and retired on top

Khabib undefeated and retired on top, but didn't have as long a run of title defenses as GSP and Bones.

For Izzy, I just don't want to see him losing sad the way Anderson Silva ended his career.

 

[Mike18jj]

Izzy lost again

 

[Primetime]

Izzy had a good run and is a legend but yea it's been obvious for a bit that as cerebral of a fighter as we like to credit him as, he stayed finding himself in precarious situations that his lightning fast reflexes would bail him out of in the past.

But we know what happens with age... and factoring that he was already in his late 20s when he joined the UFC in Dec 2017, it does feel like he got old "quick". But that's the nature of it

 

[Legal]

So far so good for Izzy

When you ain't even gotta watch, and the back to backs posts tell the story for you.

 

[THEREALBRAND]

I completely forgot about this card, I just found out Izzy lost, @THEREALBRAND is Izzy washed

He could stick around and be top 10 guy and a gatekeeper for the division, but his days of being a serious contender are over. His chin and his reflexes are gone.
