I'm not following the logic here. Once the submission hold is locked in and you can't get out, it's over. You don't really prove anything by getting choked to unconsciousness... the time for fighting like a lion was 20 seconds previous, when Izzy was actively fleeing from Du Plessis. It's even worse if it's an arm-bar or the like... are you suggesting that you're supposed to get your arm ripped off instead of tap out? What am I missing here?
The logic is simple: Adesanya made the fight not only about race but also about apartheid. When you make a fight about such issues, you don’t tap out, and you don’t turn your back. It’s weak behavior after making the fight about race. Watch Rodtang vs Mighty Mouse and then get back to me.
Ddp Just telling the truth, as a south african, we love our country...
He tried to go out on his shield but DDP shut his things up
African man vs New Zealand man.. watch rugby it I'll make sense 😂
Spot on gents very well said and 100% true
Thanks for the fair coverage. Holding Izzy accountable for how poorly and dishonest he handled this whole build-up.
No ,it's a sport . Pros know when they're done and it's professional to tap at that stage
Interestingly Dricus also lost to a chocke ... didnt tap...fell unconscious.
True warriors go out on their shields.
Izzy needs to learn humility
