Zhang Weili and Joanna Jedrzejczyk are to blame.. That fight was so astronomically great, the universe was just balancing itself out with Izzy and Yoel to prevent from imploding.
Izzy called out Yoel and wanted to make less of him for his egacy. Its Izzy fault
Izzy lost.he was running and yoel got take down
It's really soon but after the final bell myself and everyone I was with agreed that it was the best womens mma fight ever
Carlos D. Whattt Romero only started moving for the last 30 seconds of the fight. And he got a takedown and had it for 2 seconds
Nah the fight was terrible
Yoel was conserving his energy for training the next morning.
Izzy: u hit me.
Romero: no, u hit me.
Haha. It was like two guys who were afraid of each other fighting in jr. High school.
Paulo Costa was the real winner
suseno anwar Adesanya didn’t want him to hit him. He wanted him to move or do something. He wanted him to react to his faints and movements so he can do his thing but Romeo did absolutely nothing. It’s kind of hard to figure out what you’re going to do when you get no reads from your opponents. That’s literally what Chael is saying.
@@ricovillanueva1650 so in other words yoel exposed him with the most simple thing that exists. you people talk as if it was a rule to let izzy counter lol
@@oldirtyronin Sure you don't have to fight him if u want but as you can see he isn't going to give you what you want since he is the champion already. So either you man up and play into is style and beat him or you do nothing and lose. The champion doesn't need too be the one who engages especially if that's not how he fights so to me Izzy did what he needed to do boring sure but it isn't his fault Romeo didn't want to take the risk and aim for the belt he played it safe.

Unknown Artist @ Mike Tyson
Unknown Artist 😂😂😂😂😂 bro I’m dead Tyson mikes quotes are deadly
Izzy said in an interview, the reason he blinked was because he saw 2 Romeros, after the overhand punch in the first round. If Yoel had went for the takedown right at that moment, he might have won.
It’s ok, we can sacrifice this fight to the MMA Gods. It’s tribute for the Khabib/Tony fight
I like it
Khabib will beat Tony just like everyone else. You really think Tony is a better fighter?
cherb23 yes
cherb23 tony climbed out then womb himself
@@cherb23 actually, yes lol
Khabib: "You're not a real Mexican".
Uncle Chael: "That begs the question: Just how Mexican is Tony Ferguson?"
@deathstar11 you could still be half Mexican. Your last name isn't your ethnicity. Maybe for you it is LOL. If your mom and father are related
Tony are hispanic but he's not mexican, he was born and raise in US, of course khabib call out him to be fake mexican
He took the name Ferguson from his stepfather.
@deathstar11 His last name is Padilla. I don't know where the Ferguson comes from exactly.
deathstar11 no, Ferguson is Scottish. It is also the name of Tony’s stepfather who is of Scottish decent.
“This one was the cure for insomnia.” Wow quite a burn Uncle Chael.
Dana Black no joke seriously fell asleep in the fourth woke up to Izzy getting his hand raised!!! 🤷♂️
Yoel "the olympic wrestler that doesnt wrestle" Romero
This is the problem with many other wrestlers in MMA/UFC! ))))
Crazy that he didn't try many takedowns
Gsp come from karate became wrester in ufc.
It's hard to wrestle someone who's jogging away from the center of the octagon
Wrestling exhausts so much energy when you’re grappling though, either up against the fence or on the ground. If he does manage to get Izzy down he probably would’ve been gasssed after the first round and wouldn’t have had the legs or arms to last a 5 round fight. Also, he’s probably actually 50 years old instead of 43. If you go by the Cuban to America athlete equation lol. These guys come over with no birth certificate so it’s anybody’s guess as to their real age. Having said that, Romero could pass for early 30’s with his stature. He’s a freak of nature. Cuban athletes are complete wildcards lol.
*5 entire rounds*
Romero: Hit me
Izzy: I can't let you get close
Then chops his leg off...
Accurate assessment.
Yoel: I'm a statue
@@1wfunston1 those leg kicks were ridiculous. Looked painful.
@@1wfunston1 never seen a fighter brag so much about damage to a leg 🤣
Romero: izzy is a counter striker, what if there is nutin to counter *taps his head*
Work smarter not harder,
Izzy: *baffled*
Yoel always fights that way..izzy cannot fight when there is nothing to counter..
mizo pa apart from he won
So, if your a counter striker, you don't need to fight? The fight sucked, but I don't think Romero got hit in the face one time.
Literally what I was thinking!

@@WhiteMousse1980 nigga??
It's Israel's job to defend the belt but it was Romeros job to GO GET THAT BELT.
Justin Puyear exactly, especially when he gets a title shot at 42 years old. I’m a huge fan of Romero but the mans a fckn weirdo, he should have wrestled the shit outta Izzy, all those wrestling championships, and he has barely used it in the UFC 🤦🏻♂️
Yes!😐
they said you "didnt have to beat the champ" lol bottom line it should of been a draw
@@s.o.c_914 no. You don't tarnish a fighters unbeaten record over a fight bcuz it's tough to judge. Izzy caused more damage to Romero's leg than Romero caused hitting Izzy with one punch. A title Challenger deserves an L on their record if they barely engage in the fight.
Stephen Cash A fights a fight no one should lose just because their undefeated or because there a cool guy and the champ. A person should win because they WON THE FIGHT. I had Romero winning in the score cards at the end, but it could have went either way, the fight was horrible but that’s what happens when 2 counter strikers go up against each other.
Izzy summed it up great..
"He was hoping that I would make a mistake. You have to create the opportunity for the knockout shot. But you can't just stand there & hope I run into it. I'm not going to risk millions of dollars just to please drunk fans"
What happened to "I want to finish him properly"? Romero never took a step backwards, he was standing in front of Izzy and Izzy didn't do shit.
The pro Romero/anti Adesanya people in this situation are nuts
Nikhil Meel it was like a terminator that had his feet glued to the ground.
Good call
Yet he said he was going to be the first to truly end Yoel lol
"This one was the cure for insomnia" LMAO

Eddie R didn’t know someone could own a UA-cam comment.
I'll never get tired of saying it: Chael is one of the best journalists - PERIOD. Content, analysis, pace, storytelling, it's all there.

@@colbywalker5301 O Malley showing alot of potential. Definitely looking forward to his next competition.
Kam Aura same. Dana said in the press conference he would like to turn around o malley as quickly as possible. And I’m sure Dana is gonna talk suga into it, telling him it’s gonna grow his brand way faster than if he waited and the hype from this fight will multiply with the next one. I just hope he’s ready. Every fight you win your competition grows. Which means you either need to grow or already have been there. I think he’s ready though 2 years of training but not fighting staying at the same rank.
yoel actually beat izzy but judges favor the champ unless they are submitted or knocked out.

@@bandojones7031 hes being sarcastic lol
The belt was there for the taking last night and Romero didn't go get it. Needed to put the pressure on Adesanya. Take the chance. Its your last chance most likely.
just another casual trying to pressure yoel into getting sniped. ud last 2 seconds in there
Tim Wing he got caught up in the Izzy hype, thought he was better than he was so he wasn’t himself. He could of broke Izzy
Why didn't he then he had 25 minutes to attack and didn't
@@jcbsalexyahoo he lost anyways. You have to beat the champ. He has crazy KO power. And great wrestling. And he doesn't use it. So he cant complain after. Waited til after the fight to finally get in his face!
@@jcbsalexyahoo sounds like something a casual would say
Such a goofy fight:
Romero: He kept running. He didn’t want to trade with me. I couldn’t put my hands on him cause he kept running.
Izzy: He didn’t charge me like I wanted. Nothing to counter. So I just stick and move, hoping he’ll chase. But I’m too elusive.
Both after the fight: Why was this fight so boring?!
ItsKojak In other words, their styles cancelled each other out.
@@KRAYZIEBONE1017 No excuse tho the challenger doesn't get to keep the style if the styles are both to counter.
@@KRAYZIEBONE1017 No, in other words Adesanya was playing for the judges. He got cracked in the early exchange and didn't want any real engagement after that.
@@farzana6676 yet he kicked yoel the while fight why doesn't yoel pressure
Farzana Patel No. Adesanya was not trying to lose his belt by being an idiot and charging straight into one of the hardest hitters in the sport. He would have loved to counter if Romero had done anything for him to counter.
That overhand counter by Romero was a real threat in my opinion.
And Romero expected Israel to come at him for more. He wanted that belt for free. Wanting the champ to take the fight to him.
Rapha S. I might add that Izzy neutralized that overhand after getting stung twice by it. From what I remember, Yoel was countering Izzy’s forward pressure, which was usually a front kick or round kick of some sort, by punishing him with that overhand right. However after getting stung a few times, Izzy was able to get his guard up and block it pretty effectively in the following rounds. I suppose the threat was still there though
@@kyleguzzardo Forsure. They were both respecting each other a lot. Izzy's style is more catered to you making a mistake. Yoel will reel you into thinking he's not ready to counter with his slow pace and then he lights you up.
When that’s all you have then you are a terrible fighter, Yoel is a joke.
Exactly.... izzy did the smart and tough thing. He could have easily gotten knocked out if he went in guns blazing
Romero was able to extend his lungs to the last rounds just to do nothing
Even Izzy was shocked.. everyone was expecting an explosive 4th and 5th round from Romero.. all we got were leg kicks from Izzy 😣
Hey a saw you at the fight lol
Do you remember me a said hey wassup when you came to the front row
Romero won the fight.
@@cbleakley9149 jesus that not him get real ffs
I told myself if Izzy beats yoel I would consider him one of the greats but this fight was pure shit...
And he beat him so........?
he got a weak decision he didn’t go out and beat him down
Same here, but i had him losing for real for real.
Nemanja Calic how did izzy lose that fight? Yoel just stood there, the fight being boring was also his fault
Google Isevil prancing around to a decision is not beating someone.
Romero just wanted izzy to chase him the whole time so he would mess up and then he could explode all at once and knock him out...romero didn't try to fight and Izzy didn't play his game the way he wanted him to, Izzy is the champ it's simple, Romero should of been trying to take his title
Agreed. That was pathetic. You have to TAKE the belt. I lost a hundred bucks on the fight. I really thought he was gonna bring it. I'm now pretty sure he has CTE or is well below the intelligence curve.
That was my opinion too. - Romero Fan here
Izzy wanted to Yoel to chase him too? They both didn’t do what the other opponent wanted them to do? They both took Ls
So just run at izzy, the counter striker, like whittaker and Kelvin? They both did nothing, it should be a draw. No one won. Romero landed the hard punches but izzy landed the harder kicks. Romero wanted to counter strike the counter striker and this is the fight you get when neither guy is willing to extend themselves or put themselves in danger. It also doesnt help that Zhang and Joanna had a complete war.

Romero is the challenger. He’s there where others want to be challenging for the belt. You can’t squander a chance like that by not doing anything and leaving it up to the score cards or giving it a crack. The champ just has to win, doesn’t matter if it’s boring or not. Romero stuffed up should have chased and not left it to the score cards or what little they could score.
When Izzy felt Romero's over hand his fight strategy went out the window and he played it safe!
Izzy is a naked weapon and Yoel is an explosive fighter . When you choose not to be explosive against the champ. because of his fighting prowess then the champ will hide all his weapon and only release it if you are genuinely interested in his Belt. The challenger was just a stationary fighter which was contrary to the style his known for. The costa fight is going to be a classic. I see costa showing up for the belt but trust my boy Izzy, his going to show up too and shows off. Costa! Let’s see if you have got what it takes to activate the weapon in Izzy. COME AND FIGHT THEN WEAPON IS ACTIVATED.

@@bhall3704 We can tell you are, you don't have to announce it to everyone.
yeah he was the challenger in the technical for belt but he was called out by Issy so really Yoel wasnt next in line in ranking to be "challenger" Yoel got challenged because as Issy said him self Legacy.
The main point of fight for Issy was not to keep belt . But to show he could do to Yoel what other fighters could not hence legacy goat status. Did he do that.. Nope so he may have kept belt but not gonna be talk of town with his performance. Hes the next tyron woodly. Izzy keeps fighting like that who woould care if he kept belt "won"

Yo the co main event winner took risks despite getting tagged on the way in. Yoel was doing capoeira and was only showing off then later on bitched about losing. Coming forward was Yoels job.

That's dumb as fuck. Izzy has to defend his title.

@Joe Sudz Izzy isn't to blame, because he was doing enough to beat Romero every single round. It was up to Romero to try to change the fight and look for the victory, but he still didn't do shit the entire time. He just sat there and let himself lose because he was too stubborn to attack. It's 100% Romero's fault.
Best line ever. Watching that fight I lost two hours of my life....
Yoel didn’t move and Izzy didn’t engage.
Izzy called out Yoel which showed that he wanted to make a statement against a terrifying opponent but he played defense.
I was rooting for Yoel but he went in there like if he was showing up for a check and thats that.
All in all the women showed up and put on a hell of a show.
Well after the Costa fight, the jokes on you
Yoel was like a wall of bricks that literally said " come crash on me,,"
Come! You come! Come boy! Crash me! Crash to me boy!
Crash me, mate. Crash me. Yeah, you will do nuttin
crash me outside, how bout dat?
@Joe Sudz LOL
Well adesanya said he’d make him crumble like the twin towers. If adesanya calls him out but doesn’t come after him idk it’s not a good look
The ring should shrink 6' after every round....

Nah. That changes the game a bit too much.
They should give Over-time. That would've solved the Jones Reyes fight too. Eventually one of the fighters will succumb.
u play too much fortnite.
At one point Yoel literally just started jumping.
Archibald Maule Ramsay It’s apart of his lull gameplan.
Archibald Maule Ramsay Its a feint. He jumps to make you think wtf is he doing and then he goes in for the kill. If you watched the fight over you will see in between his jumps he leans in to go in but stops because Adesanya puts up a defense stance to block or stuff any takedown.
That shit was so funny 😂😂
DC: “He’s literally just jumping”
Tha Imperial No he shouldn’t. If he did, it would make no sense. After Yoel hit Izzy with the overhand left in the first round, Izzy would never exchange with Yoel. Yoel was looking for the finish whole fight but Izzy was defending the finish. If Yoel charged him, Izzy would run away and use his range and length to counter Yoel. That’s how he kicked him in his head and he damaged him with the leg kicks. If Yoel pressed him, he would have gassed out and probably got finished.
@@TownBwoy lol soooooo he lost?
“This fight was the cure for insomnia”. Chael is a SAVAGE! 😂
Yoel is to blame. He just stood there like a Statue of God hoping that Izzy would bring his chin to him. Which Izzy did in the first round and got clipped. Izzy was like ok i'mma just kick you from the outside and call it a day. As a challenger you have to take the belt and also knowing you had previously lost your last three fights on decision.

Not so fast. It wasn't as bad as that. The few moments Romero had saw to it.
That was worse lol
If someone is standing in front of you, not moving and just covering their face, the logical thing is to attack the legs and body with kicks. Especially if you're the taller fighter.
Yoel's gameplan was to literally stand there and catch him with a huge overhand right.
He caught Izzy with it the first round and that's when Izzy realized that's all Yoel will be doing the entire fight.
So Izzy strikes from the outside
If you're trying to counter with an overhand right, the way Yoel did it is not the way.
You set it up with jabs, leg kicks, feints, movements.
Yoel did none of this. Just waiting for the overhand Right or just bum rushing and hoping for the best.
Every Striker knows that Izzy would just attack from the outside with a gameplan like Yoels
Yoel was trying to make Izzy make a mistake and attack a defense shell and Izzy did the first round and didn't after
100% agreed. Izzy fought smart, that was what he had to do. All those people who booed are pretty stupid imho
Jay Garcia overhand left* remember romero’s a leftie, southpaw
hard to find sensible people like this in the mma community nowadays
Sounds like a good way to win by out pointing someone. But why would you call out Yoel to fight him like that? He wanted to make a statement by beating him more convincingly than anyone and finish him. But he was scared to get closer than kickboxing range the whole fight and turn around and ran anytime Yoel tried to close the gap in any way. When Yoel tried to fight he ran, when Yoel waited for Izzy to come at him he wouldnt do it. He wanted to stay on the outside and pop leg kicks. I mean it got the job done he won by points but did he really beat him? He called out a brawler to a point fight lol
100%
In Yoels favor, everytime he took a step forward Izzy took 3 backwards and circled. Being the much shorter guy, this made it almost impossible for Yoel to close the distance. He even ran at Izzy a few times, but Izzy wasn't even looking for the counter. It was like watching a bullfighter that didnt want to hurt the bull.
I don't know why people say that yoel didn't try to engage. But they don't talk about how izzy sprints or retreats everytime yoel steps to get in range. I can accept that izzy won. But for me, the way he won was not how he marketed the fight and that's what grinds my gears. He was talking like he was gonna go toe to toe with romero. But he didn't, he didn't even "counter punch".
@@loristnorton3723 this. definitely this. couldn't have even said it better myself, and i'm articulate as fuck.
Thats a fact. He was literally sprinting away. Never seen an mma fighter run that fast in a cage.
Lorist Norton exactly
@@loristnorton3723 That sprinting is not new,izzy used the same tact against Silva but silva was coming out to fight,Romero messed up the fight from the first round by refusing to engage thereby slowing the fight down.
The onus is on him the challenger to force a win and not on the champion.
I know the whole "you have to beat the champ to be the champ" thing has been played out as an excuse but in this fight its kinda true. Yoel hardly attempted to take the belt off of izzy yet expects the fight to somehow be amazing when he won't even engage
Everytime Izzy engaged Yoel, Yoel tried to trade with Izzy. Everytime Yoel tried to engage with Izzy ran away. How was Yoel supposed to engage? Just run straight at Izzy?
I definitely think it was both fighters faults.
Especially Izzy because he said hed knock romero out and picked Romero because he said everyone was scared of him, yet Izzy was more scared of romero than everyone else
They’re both counter fighters and Romero analyzed the RW fight more then any other fight I’m sure.
@RLM "who just throws bombs every second" That's exactly how he'd lose
@RLM But Paulo Costa will just run forward at Izzy throwing power shots, so izzy is going to counter the shit out of him. Izzy has 0 offense and hates getting hit and that got exposed against Silva and Romero.
@@kyleelpel9402 these people think that there is a rule that other fighters have to attack izzy so that he can do his counter thing. yoel just exposed that izzy was to scared to do something else and also hit him very hard and that like..many times. izzy looked like a spoiled brat who can't understand the world anymore that yoel just didn't want to let him some cool stuff.
this was embarrassing to watch and yoel just did not want to run into a fist and who the fuck says he has to attack first..i saw yoel doing the damage and exposing izzy. and yoel would have knocked out izzy a little bit later.. but hey...they talk since two years that izzy will be a star someday and i still find him akward and this shit did not help at all.
i just saw a kid that couldn't eat what he ordered and more or less bitched out for 5 rounds
Yoel wanted to fight the fight on his terms. He knew that chasing him would slow himself down
yeah and izzy wanted to fight HIS own fight (counter punching) izzy has only ever been deadly when people run straight to him lunge in with big power shots so he can counter.. he didn't want to get into it with Yoel, even after saying for months on end how he wants to FINISH this guy and beat him up like no one else ever has.. absolute pussy, lost all respect for izzy after that.
The Lonesome Wanderer for Izzy ? Wow romero was camping trying to get his bomb off. Why the fuck would you walk into a bomb? Romero set the tone from the beginning of the fight and you know that
Yoel is a sloth. Needed to adjust his gameplan. Pro wrestler?! Izzy did what he had too win against a guy trying to keep his energy so he didn’t get knocked. That fear of Yoel is being the real pussy
Izzy didn't want anything to do with yoel after he felt that first shot amd realized he was the inferior fighter.
Jordan Aleksandre how does that make him inferior...? If he was inferior he’d just stand and trade with a heavy power puncher like an idiot. Izzy has always been a counter striker. We had a boring fight because Yoel decided to counter strike against a counter striker. He’s not inferior, just has a different style of fighting than Yoel. What an ignorant thing to say.
I think it's very clear who's to blame for this...
Tony Ferguson
Best comment 😂😂😂😂
My son (17) actually fell asleep watching this main event final. I thought Romero's plan was to expose Adesanya as timid, scared, solely a counter-punch fighter. I thought Romero advanced more, held center of ring more, attacked more, took more chances, did more damage with hands, took him down, etc. All Adesanya did was circle and stay outside in thigh-kick range and never engage, never fight. This is the fight game, not a points fighting match held in some local gymnasium. Very poor performance by Adesanya and one that made him look like a coward.
Izzy was talking about going yoel the whole lead up. He tasted yoels power twice and decided to play it safe cant blame him
jbot91 exactly! I hate how he calls out Yoel and then blames his “dance partner” (or whatever he called him) when he doesn’t show up. Yoel was fucking boring as well.
Taking into consideration the manner in which he talks, he should always be the agressor. He called out Yoel. He wanted to "properly finish" him.
vagabond - Yoel was a disgrace to all of mma you clowns are Fwits if you think this was adesanyas fault, learn about fighting you dumb fucks
When a fighter talks as though he is prime time then when it really comes down to it the crumble revealing they talk more than the do. Israel got the belt and lost his edge now.
@@mattysixx I'm pretty sure we are saying it was both if there faults. But okay.
Israel a young🐐 he fought smart and won that fight
I agree mate young but smart enough to mske adjustment. Why would YR let this fight go to judges after 3loses in title fights the same way. It was up to him to take the win in football you need to score in F1 you have to overtake you can't wait on everyone in the field crashing. Tyson fury got robbed by judges in his first fight so took control in his own hands and put wilder away. YR's loses in his title fights were close unlike fury's 1st fight with wilder. Izzy done what was needed in that position he got put in YR can't claim to want to fight it out like gladiators and do that. Also noone can run away for 5rounds n not engage at all there in a cage hes got the belt ... Go get it
KJW but jones and Silva have all done that
KJW He fought the exact way he needed in order to come out on top. Romero was just vibing in the ring, acting like it isn’t his last title shot and staying guarded. If Romero really could, he would’ve knocked him out but he didn’t because he just can’t. If Israel is gonna engage Romero just to get clipped, why continue to engage? People want a change in titles by knock out, not by 2 punches and a decision.
You can’t call someone out then not put the pressure on them in my eyes
Meaning izzy called out romero over and over and the stayed away during the fight?
I agree
What do you mean he can't? He just did lol
Nathan Moore - Facts! Izzy called Romero out and when presented with opportunity, did absolutely nothing!!
Izzy said he'd win a fight. Romero solved that by refusing to fight.
This fight was decided before they even booked hotel rooms for the fighters. It was decided that Romero will lose. The only reason Romero was so pissed off is because the match was boring, since Adesanya showed nothing. Romero did what he could (within the limitation that he wasn't allowed to win) while Adesanya who had no limitations, and was allowed to do whatever he wanted, showed nothing. Romero is only satisfied if the audience is satisfied, whether he won or lose. If audience is bored to death, Romero is pissed off.
The few times Romero attacked with success, he staggered Izzy. Izzy was afraid of that power, he knew he couldn't take much of that.
WD Tripps yess bro I think the same...adeanya ron just like bolt
Yes so he respected the power of Romero. So he kept his range and hacked away at him and avoided Yoel's handful of attempts to through one punch. That task alone was easy since they were never setup. Yoel just waited him to come close enough so he can throw a big overhand and miss because it's all he did. Yoel: I want the belt, but can you please come to me and hand it to me? I don't feel like moving for it.
WD Tripps lucky for adesanya that Romero didn’t turn up to fight but instead to play mind games like a fucking kid, it was obvious Romero knew he had nothing so he offered nothing
Most people forget all the shit Israel talked selling the fight to fans but post fight we see he can’t be trusted
Went both ways... Romero was scared of Issy too, otherwise he would have gone after him and got that belt
Romero: I'm gonna conserve my energy.
Also Romero: does 2 backflips as soon as he enters the octagon
Inigo for real 🤣🤣🤣
Yoel "I'm gonna do the mannequin challange " romero
Now that's funny lol
Lmaoooo
when its a UFC favorite: he fought a smart fight
when it the UFC is against the fighter: he is boring, he didnt engage
Who's against Yoel?
The UFC just gave him a title fight that he didn't deserve and he squandered the opportunity
That’s what they accused Tyrone Woodley.. T Wood had same game plan as Izzy but Izzy didn’t get ripped by Dana like T Wood did.
@@Project0061 not really. Dana, the UFC puppets, the UFC youtube bots and the noob parakeet fans are blaming everything on Yoel trying to divert attention away from Yoel getting robbed yet again by the boxing mafia and the UFC. If anything we are providing a counterpoint to the jargon that gets put out everytime a respected fighter gets trashed by the UFC the media and its bootlickers. Look what they tried to do to Nate Diaz. The audience knows better, thars why they cheer who they cheer and boo who they boo.
I, for one, thought it was a very interesting fight to watch. Only serious fight fans understood what was going on, you are not a martial arts fan if you werent captivated by the poker/chess match that was being played out. I would like for there to be a rematch to see how that plays out. Mark my words, it will be the best fight youve ever seen in your life.
@@BenjaminRodriguez-dt5gz yup its a favorites game. thats why who the champ is doesnt tell you who the best in the world is.
@@gregoryillinivich5328 for as smart & analytic as you seem to be & anyone with similar mindset how can you believe yoel won . He had the opportunity to finish Izzy and didn't , he had two big shots that didnt even faze izzy , Izzy playing a true chest game kept taking his shots like he said he fucked up his leg . Overall not a big deal , Izzy said he wanted to fight him and he did , yoel being the victim of two controversial losses , he should've rushed him instead he stood there Stuck for almost a round what it seemed like. Lame !
Yoel had a fight later on his backyard so he had to save energy.
YOEL HAD HIS LAST CHANCE AND HE DID NOT TAKE IT.
Wasnt about Yoel last chance. Issy calles out Yoel.Yoel wasnt even ranked foe bext in line. Issy wants to be the GOAt for legacy and Yoel was that chance for Issy. So question can Issy say good consience im best im better i get him up..I dont think so. So what if Issy won .comparred to costa.Issy did enough not to get beat up.
Carlos D. Yes he can say he’s he best. Over 25 mins he did more than your bf Romero to win. Romero’s leg was fucked lol. If the fight kept going till the last man standing.....oh shit, it’s probably go to Romero cos that’s all he fuckn did 🤣🤣🤣🤣 nah, Izzy would’ve crippled him and brought that statue down.
Carlos D. Bruh he did what he had to do to sell the fight..stop bringing up what he said blame Romero the contender..he stood there like a fucking statue
Low energy Yoel had no room to whine like he did after the fight
Jordan Poling Izzy had lots of energy when he was running away
If yoel wanted the title he needed to put izzy away for good. But he pranced around to a decision.
Isbel Hernandez limaya Yoel should’ve done better, he’s fighting the champ and stood still like a statue. Acting like the judges are gonna give it to him for the 2 punches he landed and rest of it going to his salsa. Honestly don’t know what Romero was even expecting
Yoel won 5-0 I dont care if neither fighter did much yoel did more every round all izzy did was kick his leg and runaway and that's it everyone says yoel stood there the whole fight bullshit he stood there the first round and that's it the rest he was trying to push forward but everytime he got even remotely close izzy literally ran from him how can u win when u lost the grappling u lost control u lost the power striking and izzy only landed at 35%while romero landed at almost 50 % he was way more effective only reason he didn't have a higher percentage is cuz in the 4th and 5th round yoel was swinging blindly because izzy was running so he had to try something yoel even threw his hands in the air when the crowd was booing cuz he was like what am I supposed to do when he is running from me yoel cant run after him the whole fight and gas out izzy is a bitch how is yoel a pussy he stood directly in front of the so called best striker in mma and izzy was to sacred to come within 2 feet of him so u cant blame yoel atleast he wasn't running away he wanted to fight izzy just wouldn't hit him why should yoel be responsible for giving izzy the advantage and possibly get caught coming in recklessly when he was winning anyway
@@brandontaylor1688 2 punches connected by the 42 yr old vet who's been to the top enough knows what needs to be done wasn't enough. You want the Champ spot, beat him.
Yoel’s fault. Idk how you could be an objective person and say otherwise.
Albert Cavazos thank you those ppl are crazy adesanya is the champ it was all romero’s fault clearly
Albert Cavazos Thank you. He literally stood there voguing and threw single digit strikes every round. Like you want that belt or not buddy??? It’s prolly yer last chance. Oh well.
Adesanya was more active, Yoel looked like he just didn’t care,Yoel tried to take Adesanya down 3 times ALL STUFFED, it was weird but Adesanya outworked Romero who really wanted just one big punch.
Risktaker tony even if adesanya was more active he still did just about fuck all.
There are assholes saying Adesanya ran from Romero. Smh.
@@thisrichbastard.809 He light weight was
more active? hahah you mean when he was running away? yoel punched him square in the face with a hammer of a punch and after that izzy wanted no part in that fight lol
@@Videos5197 >> I won't call those leg kicks fuck all. He got kicks to Romero's body, legs and head, Including a straight front kick that shifted Romero's head backwards.
He also got some nice jabs in.
I wasn't bored..I was on the edge of my seat knowing that a crazy Romero moment was going to come...I mean we didn't get many of those but t hat threat and drama was in the fight for me
D-.-RAiL Gaming me too I didn’t get why people booed and called the fight boring or Yoel stood in one spot i saw it totally different
yeah, but in the end nothing happened. The whole time i was on the edge of the seat because i thought that this was going to be a ticking time bomb. But it just never happened, so it's a big dissapointment
Totally agree brother! He threw Izzy off his game and he was afraid to engage Romero. Why people won't call it how it is? Romero is a counter striker and Izzy felt the effects of it in that overhand. Romero wasn't just turtle defense. He was using jailhouse rock/52 blocks style on style bender ass lol. I'm baffled the alleged fight experts didn't see the chess match in this? You call it boring? Hmmm...is it MMA or a cock fight? Fighting and martial arts is a science last I checked. The novice and simple minded spectator's doesn't understand that about boxing or MA's. Mad at Yoel why? Cause he's a smart fighter and won't fight a way that plays into Izzy's style? He did press fwd more. Izzy danced away each time not engaging. Only wanted to point fight. I like Adesanya but I saw fear from him. Not the same when he fought Gastelum and Whittaker. Both have heavy hands too.
@@dtill5322 i agree with, only one thing, Izzy is smart also, great fight👊
@@matijaslat2100 same bro no doubt he's a smart fighter! I'm a fan of both. I like Izzy and Yoel very much. Hated to see them go at it. Like watching Errol Spence and Kel Brooks fight. Less exchanges and action lol but match had to happen. Just didn't see Izzy press him, or go in for any kills of significance. Nor capitalize on Yeol when he did come fwd opening himself to be countered. He took full advantage of that stuff in the other two fights. Even if it meant him getting hit to get off cleaner. Romero must seriously hit like a semi or wrecking ball. I appreciated the chess match ;)
When Yoel started it off the way he did, he set the mood for the rest of the fight. It also didnt help that the fight before got the crowd crazy
The women put on a show for the crowd. They embarrassed the men that night.
Noah Reed Yoel is stronger than izzy, so he should’ve pressured him , maybe score some take downs with his gold medal wrestling. If he wanted the title, he had to put izzy away, not dance to a decision.
Oh Marksman silver
Not just the fight before, the two fights before. Dariush v Klose was crazy action filled while it lasted.
Women's fight was real. Israel's fight was rigged. That's why one was so interesting, the other so boring. But if Izzy was a true champ, he could have made the match more interesting. I have a feeling the managers didn't tell Izzy that the match was rigged. So he was truly afraid that Romero would knock him out. If only he knew...
Judges have to give it to the person attacking, not just standing there praying to land a big counter punch
Not only that but Adesanyas the one with the belt, in theory, he doesnt have to do shit. Yoel is the one who should have pressed if he really wanted the belt
So... Who are you talking about xdxdxd?
If your the champ you should be able to do what ever you need to keep the belt
@@armandoteamouwu9420 that is the question. Some people are backing Yoel. Personally I think Israel was attacking more. You have to beat the champ not just stand there, hopefully thinking you can knock him out with a counter.
@@bigchungus7050 Exactly!!!
Romero was so scared of getting tired it was unbelievable. The fact that he got this fight in the first place is a gift and then expected izzy to come at him was laughable. Romero left hook game plan worked twice izzy made adjustments and started picking him off but Romero kept on waiting for izzy to come at him. He was so salty izzy didn't do what he wanted and izzy developed a new plan in fight after Romero decided he didn't want to fight until he saw he was going to lose by points. I mean compare izzy's last round against gastelum he wanted that win so bad Romero didn't chase down that belt like every champion did, he wanted it at the centre of the octagon like a wwe money in the bank case. So disappointed wasted title opportunity...
He only got that fight because izzy wanted it
Honestly well said ..
@@GeorgeWeigle well when given a opportunity to be a ufc world champion u don't just stand and expect the champ to expose them self stupidly romero is a chump tbh swallowing to much salsa chips

Yoel: throws two punches in a round
Yoel fans: HE WAS ROBBED!!!
Go watch the fight back, yoel clearly won round 1 and 5 and he out struck izzy in round 2 and landed the harder cleaner shots.
Yoel staggered izzy 2-3 times in the fight while izzy landed a few glacing headkicks that yoel ate like tic tacks

@@jeremycamacho2351 dana white on yoel: He looked terrible tonight
G L O C K You obviously didn’t watch the fight
If you want to win a belt, you have to fight for it and take the belt, right?
If you're defending a belt, you have nothing to prove because you've already got the belt.
That's what I'm telling everybody
Yet everyone threw up a fuss when people said jon jones won his last fight because hes the champ and hence gets to fight the fight differently.
Interesting bias is interesting...
Thats retarded lol being champion means champion level fights standing and staring at a guy for 25 minutes and winning because you threw a few leg kicks is not what makes you a champ and when Costa paves Adesanya through the canvas we will have someone deserving of the title.
Chael looks like he’s a firefighter on the side
Look when you make a statement like "I am going to go out and finish this guy properly and like no one else has before" and all you do is run soon as you taste his power then you're to blame! Israel Adesanya..
Satan_Neil Valid point.
Satan_Neil You go stand toe to toe with Yoel fucking Romero
He did what he had to do to win. You would do the same

Yoel Romeros a bitch. Was literally can sit there whole rounds just to try to land one shot. The first rounds literally sucked because he played a lazy ass game plan.

What is Izzy biggest weapon? His ability to read fighters timing, his ability to feint to force you to react and then counter strike you! Rob was his perfect opponent as he came at him with everything and Izzy read his timing like a book and countered him to win!
Romero said pre fight every fighter has a flaw and he has seen Izzy’s and would show everyone!
Could it not be possible that Romero decided to not give Izzy the looks he “needs” and then he takes away Izzy’s biggest weapons????
It may if not worked for Romero but I feel this has been overlooked by most and the easy comments of “he did nothing” are just being said.
Izzy has that Mayweather problem
Yeah, yeah, we know you're a technical genius blah blah blah BUT HIT SOMEBODY
@Alex 物の哀れ I mean a real hit
Not that Joe calzaghe baby punch storm
I mean wind up and nail somebody
be exciting
@Alex 物の哀れ I agree with you completely
I just get frustrated in interviews when he says stuff like "who cares about power. Everybody has power."
And then you see Tyson Wilder 2 and see the difference a skill man can make when he adds power
Facts!!! If izzy was d challenger though,i felt he would have risked it,like he did against Gastlum. Yoel had a great gameplan, but not a challengers game plan. He should have forced izzy from the fourth round,his an Olympic wrestler.
@@texantornadomma Fury doesn't have elite power,his a heavyweight a clean shot has power. He put himself in a position of power against Wilder. Just like Izzy did against Robert.
Izzy looked super confused the 1st 30 seconds😂😂 he probably regretted calling him out immediately
yeah he was the challenger in the technical for belt but he was called out by Issy so really Yoel wasnt next in line in ranking to be "challenger" Yoel got challenged because as Issy said him self Legacy.
The main point of fight for Issy was not to keep belt . But to show he could do to Yoel what other fighters could not hence legacy goat status. Did he do that.. Nope so he may have kept belt but not gonna be talk of town with his performance. Hes the next tyron woodly. Izzy keeps fighting like that who woould care if he kept belt "won"
He was expecting a beast to rush him, not someone attempting to counterstrike him.
Carlos D. Wrong
romxxii Since when was Romero a volume puncher ? Never. Who called out who? Ight cool
Only Romero dissapointed really, because he looked like a slug in there while he could've been champion if he had been on point and taken his chances(which he got plenty!)
Adesanya was just being as cautious as he needed to be. He actually did a great job in not underestimating this opponent.
Adesanya was JUST as much to blame.. weak leg kicks aren't any better than what Romero did... you can't give Adesanya credit for being cautious then blame Romero for doing the same.
Yeah it takes two to fight so the blame is on both of them. I kind of dislike what Adesanya did more then Romero only because leading up to the fight he said that he wanted to stop Romero and prove himself.
Anime above all if Romero is being that defensive, pushing for a knockout s suicide
MisterFuturtastic weak leg kicks omg. You’re the worst kind of casual thinking those kicks are weak. I’d love to see you try to walk after taking 30 leg kicks to the calf. Fkn idiots everywhere I swear smh. I’m baffled ngl
Izzy did what everyone does against good/great grapplers and powerful hitters. He kept his distance. Yoel was hoping izzy would be stupid enough to get in close quarters w him but he played the smart game. Y’all are just stupid if u think Izzy was going to stay in close quarters with Yoel when he knows Yoel is obviously the better grappler by far. What would YOU do if you were fighting and brollic/big ass nigga. You would keep your distance knowing if the fight got to the ground you are at a great disadvantage. That’s what a smart person would do anyway
Izzy looked physically scared after that first shot to his face. His game was thrown off by Joel game plan. Joel looked extremely arrogant
Yoel*
Who wouldn’t be scared. To bad Yoel was just as scared to keep going for it
Kyle Herndon Maybe but that shot when he went in wasn’t a part of his game anyways, he just wanted to make it interesting but got clipped so chose to stick to what he does which is pick people apart outside and wait for them to come in for an exchange. Yoel didn’t try to exchange he just tried to explode every so often
Izzy acted like he destroyed Yoel 🤣😂 Costa will run threw this twig
@@losoway4505 you probably said the same thing about Romero. I hope to god Costa just pushes forward like the dummy he is. He will get caught 100%
Romero blew his chance, I don’t understand.. it’s like he got paid off or smg

Izzy: Ok wait.
well the great STYLE BENDER should easily defeat an old man whos standing still. he called him out to begin with

I predict these tings, Izzy vs Romero possibly bad style match up. Izzy fought cautious smart and Romero does what he always does. Why is anyone mad. Happens, u can't be a 43 yrs old muscle cuban and put pace and volume like Tony Ferguson for 5 rounds. 💯
WookiesYaUncle Izzy wants to be champ he don’t want to be great. In fighting those are two different things. Whether u love or hate Conor u always get ur money’s worth. That’s why he’s great. Not because he’s the best but Because he has the best fights every time

SUPADUDE4070 conners style is completely different. It’s not the champs job to take the title. Getting into a phone both fight with someone like Romero is dumb.

Big Shaq: 1+1 is 2, quick maffs
Uncle Chael: Objectively
You guys are forgetting Adesanya called out Romero and said he would put him away properly. He called out a fighter everyone is scared to fight he acted the most afraid in the octagon.
@Emilio Maldondo, Israel Adesanya issued the challenge, yes he said those things. However Romero is the challenger, he did almost little to zero in that fight. Couple punches to Izzy’s face isn’t enough to win. Israel caught him a few times too but also damaged his leg. Romero needed to step up to be Champion. If he wanted to be Champ, he could’ve pushed himself harder to get that knockout or something.
@@renegade9064 for someone who speaks a lot about his legacy and fighting the best and beating them the best ways possible adesanya failed to execute a plan to embarrass Romero, if you look at the still shots of the fight Adesanya looks terrified in all of them. His legacy will be a bit tarnished after this one and people will brand him as a runner.
@Emilio, Israel’s legacy? Romero’s reputation as a tough guy will be tarnished. He’s the most ungrateful fighter I’ve seen lately. He didn’t deserve this fight however Izzy gave it to him & Romero was trash. He did try to take down Izzy but failed all those times in the take down which I believe is why he just stood there and didn’t push him anymore. No one will give Romero a chance at a title after that, he’s such an entitled fighter. Now he will retire with no belt.
@@renegade9064 the belt doesn't mean much, yeah israel is the champ but nobody respects how he won. he didn't out perform yoel either check the post fight stats. UFC is too lenient with their champs. That being said they are both top 5 in the ufc can't argue that they're both monsters regardless.
@@renegade9064 yeah he wanted to beat him properly, and what he means is that he isnt going to just fuck himself over by engaging every single time risking a brutal takedown that can end his match right there. He learned from his gastellum fight, where he actually risked it all because he took too many shots from gastellum all throughout the rounds, which is very devastating. He challenged romero to win with both strength and intelligence, not have a brawl and just lay it all down senselessly.

After the Jones/Reyes fight and the Romero/Adesanya fight UFC needs to show judges cards after each round. There is no way Adesanya did enough to win rounds 1 and 2
