Izzy was backing up for most of the fight. Grappling every chance he got as well.

Good result.

 

[toxic]

That left hook

Wow

Good result.

I wanna see Izzy talk that smack now.

Shi'ite thought Alex had nothing left in the tank. Smart decision to coast most of the 4th to catch his breath.

 

[PoppedCorn]

5th mma fight
Damn

Certainly has Izzy’s number

 

[Joker91]

Izzy deserves immediate rematch but far out how do you come back from that? Wrestle/grapple heavy strategy?


Pereira looked so much bigger/stronger on the feet.

Yep kept it in the tank was a very Francis like fight didn't go hard early.

Classic Izzy backed up got the occasional punch and kick landed and kept Pereria in the fight.

This time the power got the best of him.

Me too, just saved it up for that last flurry and the power was too much for Izzy.

 

[Quivorir]

Good fight. Great card over all. Stoked to see izzy lose just a shame it wasn't Rob doing it.

 

[Topkent]

Haha * me I'm so happy, Izzy resorts to wrestling because hes scared of the hands, still gets finished. Arrogant flog can eat a ******* dick

 

[Topkent]

Izzy's standup looked super rigid compared to normal, pressure absolutely got to him. He was mostly throwing ones twos, there was no real creativity to it. Even his defence was very timid. Periera is the real deal although id back a strong wrestler to keep him down

 

[CaptchaProofBot]

cmon...even i knew Brock Lesnar was pretty quick to being champ

s**t yeah he does but guess what your not the champ now, can't sit back, dodge duck and avoid your opponent as they need to beat you.

Not sure how he beats Pereria

 

[Topkent]

Vettori and Whittaker licking their lips.

Whitaker flogged vettori, him and Costa probably licking their lips.

 

[Struggle]

s**t yeah he does but guess what your not the champ now, can't sit back, dodge duck and avoid your opponent as they need to beat you.

Not sure how he beats Pereria

He was 2 minutes away from beating him. Or 10 seconds away at the end of the first

Stoked to see him lose, but can easily see him getting the belt back next time

 

[00Stinger]

Listening to Rogan is cringe right now

 

[00Stinger]

Whittaker v Periera would be a great match up for Rob imo

 

[Topkent]

He was 2 minutes away from beating him. Or 10 seconds away at the end of the first

0-3 against him. He doesn't land that second shot if the ref isn't stepping in.

 

[Ry009]

Already riding on Izzy for a rematch......

 

[Dan]

Good fight.....didn't think Pereira could go deep.

I'd give Izzy another shot. Been a great fighter and champion.

People with tall poppy syndrome should be getting behind the fighters from our end of the planet (aus/nz)....not against em.

 

[craigos]

Kind of hope Alex turns down the rematch cause if it happens and Izzy wins then we're getting number 3 and that sucks for the division.

Waiting on the fence was such a big mistake for the whole of the fight for Izzy.

 

[Topkent]

Already riding on Izzy for a rematch......

I hate Izzy but who else can he fight? Other than Khamzat going up he's torched everyone else in the division. Izzy's next fight is 100% Periera, just not sure who's his is

 

[Ry009]

s**t yeah he does but guess what your not the champ now, can't sit back, dodge duck and avoid your opponent as they need to beat you.

Similar run to Woodley? Big statement to win the title, but then a string of defensive title defenses before dropping it.

Younger and more talent, will fighting the way he has will catch up to you.
