There are only about 5 fighters per weight class that are title contenders at any given time, these dudes fight twice, sometimes 3 times a year. Considering Whittaker was the champ for 2 years, and Izzy was the only fight he's lost in 8 years, its surprising this is their first rematch tbh. Tai vs Lewis should be a banger
it is but at least we don’t have to hear 90% of the prelims c*m themselves in their post fight interview about meeting him. JRE man: Excellent fight sir, how did you tonight? Prelim: Omg your Joe Rogan, omg, thank you for being the voice of our generation JRE man: You seemed to use your boxing to open up the take down did you plan that going into the fight? Prelim: I love you. Will you please have me on a podcast JRE man: Well thank you for the outstanding performance, ladies and gentlemen give it up! Prelim: No Joe, thank you.
This Green vs Haqparast is a dollar store version of the Adesanya vs Gastelum fight lol Bubby knuckles out here looking like
That 272 promo is just awful, makes the sport look like total trash IMO. Good fight for the South Pacific rivals, very close I would like to see a 3rd match personally. Very technical, not a banger so a little anticlimactic. Tai and Derrick delivered.
There is no one that's taking that belt from Iz right now. Canonnier is interesting, sure, but I can't see anyone beating him standing up. Just can't see it. It's going to take a grind it out wrestle f--k old man strength grind type like Makhachev to get it done and there's no one in the division right now like that. I see Adesanya v Canonnier looking like an ez win for the champ. He'll beat up his leg, KO him with some counter, and that'll be the end of that. After that, not sure who is next for him in that division. Beat Vettori twice, made Costa look like a fool, beat Whittaker twice...Whittaker is the only guy that has a shot at him and he might get a 3rd chance because I'm not seeing anyone else really threatening him.
New details regarding Cain Velasquez: He shot at man charged with molesting his relative, sources say tldr, man molested a child relative of Velasquez. Velasquez finds and shoots at the man, but misses and hits the guy's stepdad.
