“Adesanya didn’t show up.”
“I knew Izzy was gonna lose once DraftKings gave the boost to +100.”
“The “dog stuff” got to Izzy’s head.”
“The UFC screwed up giving Strickland the title shot.”
“Strickland wasn’t that good. Adesanya was just, that BAD.”
“If Strickland didn’t train with Pereira, he wouldn’t have won.”
When it comes down to it, Sean Strickland put on an absolute clinic and exposed a weakness in Adesanya’s game. I have always been a little skeptical on Kickboxers straight Boxing. Izzy may throw some decent shots, but his Boxing definitely is not on the level of a Legendary fighter. If Adesanya can get a rematch with Strickland he will need to find a way to stop the forward pressure of Strickland and find a way to create some distance with his elite kicks. This is why we love MMA. The Art of War.
