The fact is Izzy has fought 16 times in the last 5 years. 11 of them have been title fights. The most out of any UFC fighter. He’s human. He needs time off.
Most of any ufc fighter? Uhm, Jon jones just entered the chat
@@andygarza8132 work on reading comprehension, he clearly means the most out of any UFC fighters in the 5 year span
@@andygarza8132Jones fought once in the last 3 years 😂😂😂😂
Jone's has fought 5 times in 5 years. Going back a decade Jone's hits 11 fights in that span and has had 15 title bouts total in his career. In a short time in the UFC Izzy has fought more than any other fighter in that time frame@@andygarza8132
@@andygarza8132 Jones only had 1 fight since Feb 2020 sit the fuck down.
Adesanya unfortunately didn’t listen to Chael’s advice and got too close
W komment mate lol.
yes so true...too close to the fire when he opened his gob about the maxwell trial and epsteins little black book 😂
Adesanya could be more like Chael and be juiced off his face going into his fights.
I really hope he reads his commentd
😂😂😂
Say what u want about the guy but he brought many fans to the ufc and mma in general and he is the most active champion ever and it’s facts.
His activity was great, he is a great athlete, just very easy to dislike him as a person, and I say that with fighters like Jones in the UFC. It should be easy to like Izzy, but I always feel like I have to force myself to like him, every time I warm up to him, he says or does something that brings me back to reality.
@@XekTOr89 understandable
@@XekTOr89I just feel like he overthinks things and tries so hard to be cool and It comes off as not authentic imo.
@@XekTOr89it’s not miss universe. Someone has to be the heel but the heel most times brings the eye than simply a nice guy.
There are many nice guys who are great fighters (WB), that do not garner the interest whether to win or lose like Adesanya.
You lot are a bunch of tools and become too emotionally invested.
What bothers you all whether you see it or care to admit it or not, is the fact he don’t give a fcuk.
Yea I respect him but hes soooooo cringe it’s nuts lol
Uncle Chael just gave us a master class in fighter marketing. If I was a fighter, I would watch every single one of Chael's videos to help model my career.
Yep. That’s why any time fighter pay is brought up - it’s hollow.
These fighters are dumb. And they ignore solid free advice. It costs them millions.
You do not get to complain about “unfair” when you’re dumb.
@@S0RELOSER Bingo. Well put. I don't think of being a UFC fighter as a job, as much as I think of it as an audition. You put on a good enough show and then you can start making money. It's entertainment, after all.
16 fights in 5 years probably has taken it's toll. It's OK for him to take a break. Well deserved break. Let the division settle out. He was a dominant champ that won against most of the division. By the time he gets back the division will be totally different and we'll get fresh matches.
hopefully yea
He won't be champ again. Done
Exactly. That is what's important, more matches. He cleaned it out. Letw see how it plays out nw
He does deserve a break, but he should NOT neglect training completely while he does. The man is now 34, and the probability of coming back and dominating the division is diminishing. The chances of him being champ again are minute. He is not Jon Jones, no matter how much people might hate him.
@@WINDINGCROWNS ha ha you wish little dude...
Lol “Izzy always tells the truth, we have to take him at his word” 30 seconds later “he says he’s not fighting until 2027, but I don’t believe it” 😂
Oh wow taking things out of context.....instigatorrat 😂😂😂
Chael is so good at verbally expressing himself he has to contradict himself to have someone on his level to train with. Undefeated undisputed
@@swifty123he wasn’t contradicting himself, he mentioned the first part so that when the “contradiction” came, he’d be able to use the context of Izzy’s past to say that an answer of 2027 is an annoyed champion, aka “stop asking me to fight”
Makes sense to me
Does Izzy even know where he is most of the time? If I didn't know better I would thought he was Bidens black son with a African fishinglady.
@@fahed2544 yeah but it seems you have a functioning brain
I appreciate Chael’s love for Izzy because I know he’s got a ton of haters. Izzy has been a huge inspiration for me for many years…and I don’t inspire easy. I’m glad I see what Chael sees.
Really? Inspiration, really
Lol he's giving him inspiration 🤣
@@wikipedia324 yes, to be the best in the world at something (especially fighting) is inspiring to me.

“Alex Piera” the Italian cousin of Alex Pereira
Adesanya’s success in the UFC happened so quick. He became champion, defended his belt multiple times and made the UFC and himself a lot of money. All the sponsorships and other deals came to him and I believe all the success and money kinda got to his head and his motivation died once he became the dominant champion that he was. The rematch with Pereira was the last time I saw him motivated to win.
So you mean the fight before last, of the most active champion in UFC history?
Gotya.
It wasn’t the motivation he just got beat. Sean’s style shut him down and he had no answers and I really believe that. Maybe all the hate got to his head. I’m really not sure but I don’t think he lost motivation, or maybe he did we don’t know enough
@@fearlessjoebanzai🤣🤣
@jennymelo2098 it really was a great performance Izzy had no answers for Sean it was like Sean was built to beat Izzy lol his close boxing style just perfectly counters Izzy’s point fighting. Sean kept walking forward and didn’t think twice about it. Tired of people coming up with excuses for Izzy give Sean his credit he 4-1’d one of the most dominant champs in recent history
@jennymelo2098 He lost rounds 1, 3, 4, 5. Most people give him round 2
As someone who fell in love with MMA when Silva was running through dudes like a buzzsaw 15 years ago… Adesanya brought me back… I fell out of it for awhile, MMA got a little flat, no fighters with pizzazz until Mcgregor… but something about stylebender reminded me of Silva and I fell in love again… and thankful I did cuz now that’s led into love for O’Malley, Volk, Aspinall, Prochazka… game is much better and more exciting now and I watch… cuz of what Adesanya did… but dude needs a break… he’s fought 3 times a year for 5 straight years… with a couple tough losses in there… needs to mentally reset
As much as i hate Izzy he's a great heel. He created three of the most popular and well liked fighters in the sport today. DDP, Pereira and Sean wouldn't even be close to their current popularity if it weren't for the three storylines crafted because of him and this makes me worry about the future entertainment value we can get from current champions. Respect is cool and all but disrespect sells fights.
You’re out of your mind. Strickland deserved that title shot and whooped adesanyas ass. He also has 1000x the personality of Izzy and is much smarter. Strickland is the reason nobody will remember Izzy. Know that.

What happend is alex pereira, he started his downfall, beat him in the ufc got knocked out, and trained a hitman Sean Strickland to take him out. Alex Pereira is the most dedicated opp

@@ryanb8736 is that where the regency bias stems from as of late towards Israel
I think ppl are just hating on Izzy. Its evident because ppl act as if this one loss is makes it a definitive answer as to who's better. Funny because ppl still look at the Alex vs Izzy 3-1 and use that for measure as well. Ppl just wanted him to lose, and hate every way he handles his loses.
"Hating" 😂😂😂 who wants to like a grown man who touches dogs in the wrong places. Tell me something, if your friend did that would you see him in the same way 😂😂😂

@@pounded_pawg😂😂😂😂
Fun fact Izzy has 9 more title defenses than McGregor
After the Pereira fight I thought that if Izzy retired at that moment, no one would complain. He would have nothing to prove anymore and I still think that. He beat his Boogeyman, nothing else matters to him.
people would still find a way to discredit him lol
@@Dynamo_066 he does that himself pretty well lol

Lowkey he is that mix of Anderson with a sprinkle of chael and a dash of rampage. His run was iconic
I love the Jim rome and Dan lebatard constant shoutout, never stop !
Strickland broke him mentally by exposing him in the press conference and followed this up by dropping and dominating him the following night in the cage.
Maybe he’s just tired? 11 title fights in 3.5 years. 11 times he’s the main event, cards been built around him. The dudes burnt out.

Thank you Uncle Chael nobody could have said it better.
Izzy is and always will be one of my favorite fighters of all time... Over maybe his last 5 fights it looked like he wasn't having fun anymore... the wild entrances... that stylebender persona became heavy on him... we expected nothing but the best from him yet lost sight of his technical ability and his willingness to risk it all to win... he more than ANYONE ELSE IN THE ENTIRE UFC DESERVES SOME TIME FOR HIMSELF SO STOP HATING BECAUSE WHEN HE COMES BACK WE ARE ALL BUYING THAT PAY PER VIEW
His last moment is getting beaten nearly to death by a hillbilly and begged him for mercy infront of his mama 😂
@danielden805 yup... no denying that... but you have NEVER seen a performance like that out of him... ever... to me it's almost like he went in drained and wanted to lose... he had no fight in him... most telling round was the 5th when he literally gave nothing... the most depressing thing I've seen in a long time ESPECIALLY after he had the k.o of the year just a few months prior
@@danielden805 lol you're so weak...
@ChaotikKojima do you even watch his fights? He has some absolutely terrible performances before. FYI that "bored" comment is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Fighter's don't get "bored" when their health and potentially life is at risk. They get risk adverse and start fighting like he did. He isn't the first to make that change and won't be the last. Time off will do him good.
I'm talking about PRIOR to winning the belt... no shit I watched his fights... and yeah.. "bored" was the wrong term... lost that fire 🔥 was a better fit... he has had some of the worst championship fights we have EVER seen... but also can't deny he also brought some of the greatest moments in the cage in this generation... clearly k.o of the year too... but yup.. I hope the time off will help him get back to what made us all fans of his in the 1st place
maybe he is over worked from being such an active fighter for ingratful fans
Hit the nail right on the head 💯 these ingrates will miss Adesanya when he's done fighting.
@@pounded_pawgexactly bro
Watch out, someone is gonna reply bringing up bestiality. Sick weirdos
Great video
Sean achieved such a big win it's still hard to imagine
He's done nothing but fight let that man take a break in piece and if he doesn't win the belt back his run was legendary
Maybe the reason he's taking a long time off, is the same reason he lost to Strickland. For a fighter like him, with an unmatched discipline and work ethic, his demand and the need to be the best etc........ defeating Alex Pereira was his biggest mission. For a guy with these amazing kickboxing & MMA records and achievements, and as someone who believes he is above everyone else as a specimen (which I'm pretty sure he does think so), those 2 losses kept him going. And that KO win against him maybe took him off his game. Like Thanos, who rested and watched the sun set on a greatful universe.
Maybe he is telling the truth. And if you read the whole thing I wrote and got to this point, you really are an MMA fan.
Naah, Strickland just schooled him, amd that broke him as it was supposed to be easy for him. Getting a loss from a lucky/snipe/hail mary punch/kick is different from getting outstriked(defended/shut down in this case) for 5 rounds when its supposed to be your forte, thats very discouraging.
Sure he has been active and the rest is well deserved. But the loss to Strickland n the way it happened that messed him up more
@@KozyKotiThis is such an ignorant comment. Sean was better that night and that night only. Props to him. But what you’re doing is being a classic weirdo hater. Trying to bring Izzy down as much as possible and pretend that sean is some legendary fighter who beat the best izzy. That’s not how the fight game works. No fighter is at their best every fight. Stop being weird
@@kjguidry839 Lol he's not saying anything that's wrong you are emotionally reading into it way too much. Sean schooled him in a way no one expected especially Izzy and after all the shit from social media for Izzy being a weirdo he got his ego shook.
@@whiteflame24 His point is that ppl act as if one match dictates how good sean is vs izzy, when literally the match before was (and is) still being compared to 3 previous matches...
@@kjguidry839 not being a hater, i said his rest is well deserved as he has been an active champ.
But the thing is izzy is an sniper, who counters, that's how he got Whittaker in the first, costa, and other finishes. But when opponents don't give him an opening there is not much he does hence the "boring fights" (v jared, yoel etc) as he never takes risks.
Strickland is an awesome fighter defensively (boxing), but in this fight he even fixed his leg kick defense, completely shutting down izzy. It wasn't an off night for izzy, he was just outclassed by Strickland for 5 rounds.
Strickland didn't bite to any of his feints/conditioning there were no over extension, constantly stood in front of izzy.
If that fight happens again I don't see it going any other way.
N this is not saying Izzy is bad, its just that sean is better than izzy and schooled him for 5 rounds.
I like your shows when you show me how to speak, how formulate a thought or, an argument for or against a theory.
BadGuyInc glasses, coming soon! 😎
The 2027 thing was a joke. He was waiting to go in to the Ngannou/Fury fight when he was being pestered by the media about his next fight.
I do think Izzy is planning to take a fair bit of time off though. He says his issue with Sean was mental and he didn't have an answer for it, which probably means that he won't fight again until he finds an answer for it. I just don't think that'll take him >3 years. But I wouldn't be surprised if we don't see him fight again until mid-way through 2024 or maybe not until 2025.
If he's going to wait until 2027, he might as well just retire.
We don’t have to wait till 2027 for the champ to fight he’s fighting fu plessis in January 🇺🇸

First thing that happened was he isn’t Chael. He was never going to be undefeated and undisputed, because there can be only one. Second thing that happened was that he is only a legend in his own mind. Chael is a legend in the minds of the people. That’s why he’s the peoples champ and Izzy never could be.

Uncle chael back in da game yessir 🗣️🗣️☝️
love you chael
People love to hate. They praise Sean for being himself and not following rules, when Izzy's whole thing is not being embarrassed about what you love. The nail polish complaints are tiring when you realize 90 percent of the world would not say that to his face .
I would happily say it to his face, what’s he gonna do? I’ve been punched in the face on numerous occasions for free. Getting punched in the face by Adesanya would mean a 6 figure payday at a minimum. I’d take that in a heartbeat.
@@CLairsoftFTWyou’re on the couch with the biggest bag of potato chips typing that lol dork
Izzy is a weirdo, acts like the main characther says his from humble beginnings(while having servents growing up and rich) and touches his dog, his whole persona is fake
I just hate the trend with men wearing fingernail polish. Izzy just made the trend even bigger and ok for men to do it. It’s weird.
He jerks off dogs. That’s so mentally disturbing.
If that makes you happy supporting that weirdness, have at it. Enjoy your fingernail polish and whacking off dogs.
Just don’t make it sound normal. It’s so dysfunctional.
@@JoaoPedro-hb3mshis whole persona is basically being a dude in his late twenties to early thirties. The dog stuff is weird yeah, but other than that you're just hating on things you don't personally like. Top 5 fighter in the last 5 years, huge ppv draws, and everyone around and near him have no dirt or negative things to say except hes a great friend. C'mon man. Just paint your nails once you might like it
Izzy taking a break could be a combination of many things: The Strickland loss, the amount of armchair revolutionaries who dug up the weird dog video only to make fun of him, not do any real-world actions to address the issue (hence why I call them armchair revolutionaries), his insane activity, losing the title, and his age.
_Watch out, I've got a sixth sense for predicting actions, and I smell an armchair revolutionary who's going to reply to this calling me an Izzy stan or a dog fucker instead of having a good conversation._
Getting sued by his ex girlfriend didn't help at all either. That shi will fk ya up mentally. The dog shi I don't think gets him as weird as it was.
what are we supposed to do bc a man is sexually interested in dogs? 🤣

He did tear his mcl before the second pereira fight and didn't really give it time to heal. For a guy that relies a lot on footwork and kicking I'd imagine that'll have a large effect
Chael would have ate him alive. Undisputed undefeated.
i think chael woulda had him in actual tears during the press conf
Except for when he calls out a contender a week after they've fought and gives them a fight with a month's notice and calls them a bitch when they don't sign.
I mean how long has Dricus talked about wanting to be champ? Izzy and the UFC gave him the opportunity and the UFC needed a title fight for the Australia ppv. Izzy fought Gastelum for the belt on less than a month's notice after Rob pulled out and it seemed to work out well for him. If DDP would have bet on himself he'd be champ right now and been able to shut up the dude that's been talking shit to him and that took his shine after the Whittaker fight.
@@MattGx_ there's a difference from being the replacement fighter on short notice and having a replacement fighter on short notice usually you still get your full camp but have been training for a certain style and the style is the only thing that changes.
@@scottjohnstone5551 so what's your point exactly?
@@MattGx_ taking on a replacement is different to accepting a fight with a month's notice after only fighting a month before is a very different thing and they should not be compared. I thought my point was quite clear.
@@scottjohnstone5551 I guess I should have asked how your opinion is relative to my reply. Izzy fought Kelvin on 1 months notice. Kelvin was already in camp to fight Rob, Izzy was on vacation. It was announced BEFORE the DDP v Whittaker fight that it was a title fight eliminator the winner would fight Izzy in Australia two months later. Dricus won the fight, refused to sign until they had to get Strickland to step in on about a months notice. So again, what does your opinion have to do with things that actually took place? Izzy called him a bitch because he talked all that shit and didn't back it up when he was given the opportunity. Other fighters have stepped up on shorter notice and won titles.
The gap in the top section of slats is really starting to bug me.
What if Izzy is trying to move up to Light Heavyweight, but actually try to bulk up to size this time? There is a potential Pereira fight after this weekend if Poatan gets the belt..
Unfortunately for Izzy, the new up and coming fighters have more hunger and dog in them. DDP, Sean Strickland and Khamzat Chimaev all are young lions and are strong contenders.
hmm but sean strickland debuted in 2014 and Izzy came in 2018
Oh I wouldnt be too sure about that, few have had as much dog inside of them as adesanya ;)
I dunno, some of Izzy's inappropriate videos suggest he's had a lot of dog in him....
Come on bro...did you have to say "dog"? LoL
@@Brazill253 no pun intended. I swear lol
Nothing has changed or happened to Izzy - and that’s the problem he hasn’t changed . His style is simple stay on the outside using his skill set. Fighters now learning how to deal with him , if you get in close and throw , he’s not the same fighter . Look at all his fights he won - stays on the outside kickboxing and using his movement. Besides the Alex P knockout, there all the same
Chael for President
He didn't give himself a mental break by picking opponents like that. Seems to have caught up with him.
What happened to Izzy? I'd say MMA Guru and Sean Strickland exposing what everyone wanted to ignore because he was champ.
Can you prove that you haven’t touched your dog? That you haven’t molested your pets? Would be difficult to know because you’re nobody. See how that works?
Exactly.
"exposing", he posted the video himself and it's still up online for everyone to see. There's no "exposing", what MMA Guru did was fuel his hatred for Izzy, cherry picked tweets and comments from him in an attempt to ultimately say "At the least he has a dog fetish". All for views and clicks

If he did i thank him for it haha
Diamond Dallas Page vs Jon “Bones” Jones would be interesting
Fighting Alex back-to-back should be an automatic time off for anyone. Even though he slept him the second time he still had to take damage to set that up but I do wonder if Strickland has shown everyone the formula. Everyone gets figured out. Sometimes though losing can be the most beneficial thing to a fighter. He makes more money than if no one can even compete with him.
Izzy was always a weirdo, he was the kid that moved around alot and never let anyone from his past expose how weird he is
Parreira and Strickland exposed all of that weird "outside im black inside im chinese" or is he new zealand? or maybe an african man now?
dude's always been weird it's just exposed now and I bet he reads comments CONSTANTLY.
The dog thing forever changed my opinion on Izzy - and apparently the same for mgmt of The UFC. They can't have a degenerate of that nature as a spokesperson for the league. Bad for business. Multiple reasons why you won't see Izzy for a while...
Yeah this is a good example of one of Chael's propaganda videos. The UFC have clearly told him to do some damage control as more and more people turn on the species bender
I feel he brought a lot of attention. Whether you cheered for him or against him, he did his job as far as hyping the fight. If you watched the fight hoping he would win or hoping he would lose, you still watched the fight
If the UFC would stop trying to fixate on the fighters that sell the most PPVs and merchandise, and actually hold unbiased events, with impartial judging, and no politics or BS involved with the outcome of a decision victory, then we'd be on the right track. I understand the need of the business to assess its assets and determine who makes the most money, and its only logical to then try and get that person "over" with the fanbase. The main issue with this idea, simply, is that we're talking about a fighting organization not the WWE, and so you can't just keep the most popular guys on top forever for the sake of making more money. This is supposed to be actual fights being held, albeit with rules and a referee and safety precautions, so it's not really a real fight anymore, but you get the idea. We're not hosting sporting events for entertainment, we're hosting combat events which are also meant to entertain, but they're supposed to be "real" fights, not a scripted exchange between two paid performers. Let Izzy go do his thing for a while, and if he decides to come back, then you make a big deal about it. You just sound stupid going on about a guy who lost a belt twice in one year and wants to take some time to himself. Tell me about Sean Strickland. Talk about his next fight. Tell me about Leon Edwards, what's his next move? Stop talking about the UFC's pet fighters and start talking about the people who are holding the belts instead.

Promotion is outside of fights, building excitement, but then you need to be exciting in the fight, and Izzy became to interested in not losing the belt and not enough in demolishing his opponent. MLB took so long to mandate a drug policy cause every one was hitting home runs, and it was exciting. The equivalent is knock outs and submissions in the UFC, and Izzy mostly been playing it safe and getting on the bicycle.

@@itumo2645”not true” there’s a video of it you absolute clown.
@itumo2645 dude it's on video adesanya uploaded himself 🤣
@@pippinpadhalopsicopolis995 >> I've seen the video. Molest is definitely not that.
It's okay to just say you don't like him.
11 min video … nothing said we didn’t know already. Keep making that 💵 Uncle Chael
Uncle Chael regardless of his age will always be the coolest, undefeated/undisputed champ ever
His terrible character caught up to him. Tasteless jokes about 9/11, his racism, excuses, nail polish, weird dog stuff, corny sayings.
How old are you 😂
@@Matrick5what?????? Grow up
@@pounded_pawg he’s projecting
@@SLAM_94 obviously 🤣
Sean’s rhetoric destroyed Izzy’s confidence. Sean questioned Izzy’s Nationality, Race, Honor, and insulted Izzy’s relationship with his dog. Sad. I thought Izzy was mentally stronger but he’s not. Izzy talked about being bullied in school because he looked different. Sad
You could also call it making sure to always have a favorable matchup lined up so the office doesnt hand him an unfavorable one.
Good the brother's getting loved in the comments.
He got busted up, embarassed and exposed. He's steping out of the light, hoping to return when the atmosphere is more favorable.
@talldreamypossum yes, that and more!
People have the attention span of squirrels. They'll move past it
Adesanya's personality happened to Adesanya. Pereira and Strickland happened to Adesanya. He's been exposed as a weirdo, got a DUI, got beaten bell to bell by Strickland after guaranteeing the UFC a win. I mean there's all kinds of things, and they caught up with him... He may be tired, but we're starting to get far more tired of him. He's not honorable or interesting.
Hey Chael, talk about Dana White's boxing protege: the irish sensation Callum Walsh. His trainer is Freddie Roach. Tomorrow nov 9th Callum Walsh vs Ismael Villarreal headlining at Msg. The Ufc is involved. UFC FIGHT PASS.
Did you watch the Australian press conference Chael? Israel was the one getting boo’d not Strickland lol, he even mentioned people were still salty he KO’d Rob
Chael can you please fix the purple
Circle on your sunglasses for the last 6 videos

All this Man knows what too do is 🗣️Speak Facts💯💯💯
Oh God, I saw the headline and thought Chael was chiming in on the conflict in the middle east.
"Skills dont sell"
-Fedor has entered the chat-
Chael with the thumbnail 😭😭😭
Uncle Chael has spoken
I love the Frenchman Alex Pierrea
What an eloquent dissertation on the state of Izzy. For the record I am not a fan, but I respect the hell out him as a role model for champions (activity, entertainment and business). He’s getting a lot negative takes on social media for petty things (a precursor to a Brendan Schaub type of thing). Everyone is subject to it, but Izzy does not deserve that. Thanks for standing up for him Uncle! 👍
the influence on the Strickland fight must have been enormous.. with the odds, there were millions to be made.
Reality kicked in when he was influenced, while drinking, that match between Whitaker and Dricus.
Man!, he cannot unseen how Whitakers ears clapped hands, when that blow landed him straight between the eyes. That punch made him upset. That power, that headlock, that grapple.
That was not the main reason. Here was a man, who came from nowhere fast, and Adesanye recognised that, because he saw himself; only on steroids.
Then Dricus turned around and Adesanye was exposed. He lost his fans begging Dricus, but he was not convincing and then Dricus popped a fake injury. Dricus decide who he will fight, because he look at latest fight display.
Success made him complacent.
Sean was cheered more than Izzy in Australia.
Andrew Dice Clay wants his glasses back.
