Cheers from Brazil man, in my opinion, this is the best rivalry happening in the UFC right now, you guys are just so good that it seems from another dimension, it was a honor to see such an amazing fight!
Man, well said!
In my opinion it was one of the best UFC Events of all time. Adding the Poirier vs Chandler fight. One technically peak high level and the other one was high level brawl! It was amazing
0-3 is not a rivalry
@@supahotfire3303 it really was amazing, the 2nd early prelim fight was a snooze, but every single other fight was mental. Just an amazing night of entertainment
You ain’t from Brazil or else you would be dick riding Alex and wouldn’t be writing in English lol
You gotta admit this is exactly what Izzy needs, this type of adversity that just won’t go away. This is where legends cement their legacy even further.
@@Shreddasaurus 🤦♂️
@@Shreddasaurus Yeah right
Being 0-3 against the same opponent is exactly what Izzy needs? If he loses to Pereira again, you can forget the word "Legacy"
@@Shreddasaurus Your that guy stuck in the past
@@EyesonEnforcement911 Very flimsy “0-3” controversial decision, standing 8 in the 2nd one that literally is a break from getting beat up, and a fair loss in mma.
Poatan said "ready to kill" when answering the judge who asked if he was ready. He didn't say "I'm going to kill you", it's not as offensive and cruel as it sounds, it's more of a way to assert yourself in combat. Incredible fight, both fighters have incredible stories and it was a pleasure to see both in the ring.
I know I’m late but yes you’re right. His “ready to kill” was a reference to one of Izzy’s earlier “ready to die” statements that was also made ring side in another fight. Poatan is the perfect Ying to Izzy’s Yang lol
What are you, Poatan's volunteer press agent?
@@fredrik8500 damn, dont need to get agressive, just a normal brazilian bro, hope you doing well
Tanto faz poha
Whatever bitch
Just for future reference it's "YIN and yang" not ying. I made that mistake too
There is some young kid who’s training everyday and watches how Izzy handles this lose and as he or she gets older they’re going to handle the tough times in their life much better now. Respect CHAMP! Much love Izzy!!
Are you out of your god damn mind? Any coach or parent would be appalled at an athlete making these excuses and deflecting fault
What? He's handling the loss terribly!
'I wasn't rocked!'
'It was an early stoppage!'
'If I only had 5 more secs in round 1!'
'He hit my perennial nerve and I was compromised, if I hit his first I would have won!'
He has literally nothing but excuses and delusions. How is that a good example of handling a loss? He hasn't even accepted that he lost. He was clearly rocked, even Dave called him out in this vid. The perennial nerve doesn't work like that. The ref saved his brain, and probably a year or two of his life.
A good example of handling a loss is Cruz vs Cody. Never made excuses (when he actually had a legit injury going into the fight.)
People are clown who defend izzy …
@@Neil-qg9cw Agreed. It's honestly insane seeing people talk about how well he's handled it, even Joe etc. I applaud him for not going radio silent, but he's made NOTHING but excuses. People are brain dead
clown
Can we give Dave some love, the dude is the definition of ride or die. When you have a bro like that supporting you, small set backs in life dont mean shit besides an opportunity to grow. You're an inspiration Izzy.
Bro izzy is cringe and you finding him inspiring is also cringe.
@@king.indigo3692 lol
It’s pretty easy to support a brother , especially a famous ufc fighter/world champion, stop kissing ass
Lol izzy haters in full effect, why click on this video, when you have a hate boner for the guy.
@@king.indigo3692 you're broke while saying that btw
We’re all just privileged to witness such an epic era in combat history..We get to see the highest level of striking unfold with a legendary story between these two warriors, absolute respect to them.
Worriers 😟
@@rexspottedcorn8326 dont warry
It should have been fight of the night
Izzy's perinnial nerve only affects him when Pereira is dominating a certain sequence of events but when it is his turn his footwork looked A1, the nevre thought naah let's not disturb him now. #delusionaldizzyizzy
@@rohitsaha8264 Damn. You're beginning to feel.
“I know what to do next time” salute sir…
You’ll get it back. This is a beautiful warrior story that you’re writing. Glad to be around to witness it. All the best champ. Stay hard.
You guys are paving the way for this sort of fan service content. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to put it together !
His eyes getting glossy definitely shows that this one still cuts deeply. Despite the result, Izzy has earned an immediate rematch with what he’s accomplished during his reign. Excited for the next chapter.
Ofcourse and he's still making every excuse he can think of
@@kingk7884 he will get kod even worse in the next one i can't wait to see his ego shatter completely

@@Fedreal_Bureau_Of_Investigaton hes already legend get job 😂
@@Fedreal_Bureau_Of_Investigaton what have you done? have you dared to be great? to put yourself out there for the world to judge? i didnt think so.. keep talking that smack, youll never have the balls to be great and chase your dreams.
I know he is a warrior but the stoppage was the best thing that happened. He still has his heath and wealth. He will come back stronger.
And loose again.
@@rellyky that's the beautiful thing about this sport bro. You don't know that for 100 percent. Oh well doesn't matter, khamzat gonna dominated 185 for years to come.
Lol Izzy knocked Alex the fuh out !! Let's see what you got to say now huh
@@TheMrChurbrothey will meet again at 205. We will come back to this
@@TheMrChurbro Bro who were you even replying to?
Part of what always gets me so excited over anything Izzy does is his willingness to push through the hate and critiques of others. We all know you’re gonna keep your head up and come back looking to take his. I’m excited to see you become And New live next year champ 💯👊🏻
Frozen like elsa
@@InkRoy02 Frozen like your mom
@@micahjohnson138 that’s how I left your😂🔥
I think his glossy eyes are from the weeds 😂
@@InkRoy02 bro are mad izzy get more credit than alex after losing
Actually he didn't say " I'm going to kill you" he said " I'm prepared to kill".
Very weird that both of you unknowingly had a dialogue.
It was an amazing fight.
Yes, he said "Pronto para matar". That means "Ready to kill". Just answering the referee who asked if he was ready to start the 5th round.
@@robertofilho5927 Yes, I'm aware. And prepared and ready are synonymous, mate.
@@robertofilho5927 that's the most badass thing I've ever heard if that's true
@@Charlie.93 that's true, man. I'm Brazilian and that's exactly what he said. Ready to kill.
@@Charlie.93 its true
Awesome to see his response to a loss is the same old Izzy. Greatness can only be achieved through trials and tribulations. But when you listen to him speak you know how much belief he has in himself. He’s a rare breed and a generational talent. He knows he’ll bounce back and be victorious before it’s said and done. So does everyone watching and listening to the man. Kudos champ!!
Thank you bro
The loss seems to have revitalized Izzy. Taking an L and growing from it is probably one of the most important skills in life, and Izzy has been displaying how to do it really well.
That's 0-3
@@johndoekobe5619 ok
He is full of excuses and is in complete denial of the loss and not giving Alex any credit, just blaming his peroneal nerve, which didn’t seem to be an issue until he got finished. That’s the opposite of what I would teach my kids on how to deal with a loss.
@@carstenmeyer6648 you would teach your kids to accept being losers in life
Jan blachowicz beat him too people forgot that attempt...
Cheers from Brazil Izzy, you are one of the best to ever do it, what a show you guys put in Garden, I know you will come Back stronger to make another show and may the best man win!🇧🇷❤️
We're still proud of izzy, Alex will push him to be better, the rematch will be fireworks
@Daddy Pluto wasnt Alex almost KO'ed end of the first😂 hook was enroute when Goddard stepped in
@@808nzaro and Alex outstruck Izzy and was saved from getting knocked out cold…
Alex will improve faster than Izzy, I pick Alex to win the rematch too
@@808nzaro yeah but unfortunately that was Izzy’s only chance to win. Remember he had all the experience on his side and still couldn’t win, this was the best version of Izzy versus an inexperienced version of Alex. Alex will be too good for him next time considering he’ll have 5 round experience and more mma experience
4-0 Frozen like Elsa
Israel gonna lay on Alex for 5 rounds and win a snoozer
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. A true champion gets up when knocked down. We can’t wait for your comeback King🔥👑
FUCK ADESANYA HES NOT A FIGHTER FOR FANS NOR THE SPORT....HES BEEN DISRESPECTFUL TO THE FANS AND SPORT MANY TIMES .....AEX PEREIRA WILL END HIS CARRIER
love this guy and all he does... i'm older than him an look up to him, such confidence love it! want to meet him one day
u are an exceptional fighter izzy...8 title fights in 3,5 years
u made UFC history ❤ ❤
Alex took everything from him in 1
@@xxxDesign4Lifexxx no he didn’t lol, Alex is great but won’t last long without takedown defense

@@muhammadwaheed1027 did you miss the burns fight?
@@mattreid8292 the same burns that was on his ass in the first round, and was throwing up his legs like a female? Yeah i watched it, kHAMZAt dominated him, the brazilian kept running back towards the cage like a coward
Stylebender you're going to go down in history some day. This isn't the end of your story it's barely the beginning. Your introduction to greatness has been witnessed by the entire world. Keep going, you have to keep going no matter what.
but what if he gets knocked out against periera (wait sorry i mean for the 3rd time)
@@jasonk1770 no matter how many time you fall, but how many time you try.
@@jasonk1770 Did you not hear Rocky's speach ?
@@jasonk1770 We get knocked down man that's part of the journey. You gotta get up and keep pushing forward. I learned this from Rocky lol we must teach our sons and our brothers to keep on fighting dont give up
@@jasonk1770 Izzy fought a great fight and he got caught near the end, that is always a possibility fighting someone like Alex, he is dangerous every second of the fight, but overall Izzy's performance was great and he did that well with his leg being shut down for the most of the fight and damn near stopped Alex in the first.
So he could lose again but it's not like he couldn't win either.
I didn’t think I could like, admire or love Izzy anymore, but listening to him on this vid, he’s special !! ❤
It’s just excuses
@@shortmadman687 what excuses?
Izzy you dey give me hope
Thanks for keeping me motivated Everytime you pop up the screen 🙏🏼🙏🏼
God bless David his doing a nice job and great support too. ❣️💯
🇳🇬🇳🇬
Izzy really teaches us what it means to be a champ. Fuck the belt, champion is a mindset, and he has it ! Eagerly waiting for your return !
He got smashed by his nemesis and will never beat him. Izzy is finished.
@@crazydolphin33 I doubt he's finished. Don't hate because you never even started.
Mans coping hard lol
@@crazydolphin33 You didn't understand a single thing from what I said. Usual hater, just looking for places to spread negativity. Peace bro
What are you saying. Your boi is delirious
@1:08 "i know what to do. i know what to do next time"
You have guts to watch and comment on your performance even after a loss especially. Don't think I have ever seen a fighter do this especially this soon. Great champ all the way!
You mean guts to make excuses throughout the whole video. Didnt give Alex any credit. Ref should have let them fight for another ten seconds swear to god - he would be still picking up his teeth
That’s some different mentality
@@richihart1938 he’s gonna fight him again that’s gonna be his next fight so why give him props ? He want his title back
@@BonesDMS4life why so he can run for 24 minutes and get slept?
@@jeffelmore5614 Izzy isn’t a runner u tweaking . I see u don’t actually watch mma fights or Izzy fights
It’s kl we get to see Izzy’s reaction, love that he’s sharing this with us… next time big guy ❤ end of round one you had him 😢 plus the walkout you looked like a Prada model, handsome and chilled AF!!
I REALLY admire you as an athlete, loved you as a fighter, and liked you as a champion. Never cared to watch you lose, almost always knew you would win your matches and you set the bar of entertainment and technique very high for yourself.. so I have admit that when you lost your last fight.. I won you back as an individual coz my admiration for you was fading.. your character in defeat is an utterly victorious one.. god bless you GO.IZZY
What making dozens of excuses?
Nah
The fight was simply epic. The anticipation was huge. Adesanya and Perreira are such different characters too.. Perreira is like this natural born killer/ terminator 2 type "bad guy" while Adesanya is more in tune with self expression and even anime. Great fight for many different reasons. It was like an anime/movie matchup.
The fight truly was amazing and motivational even! Major props to both
Izzy's perineal nerve only affects him when Pereira is dominating a certain sequence of events but when it is his turn his footwork looked A1, the nevre thought naah let's not disturb him now. #delusionaldizzyizzy
Nothing about this is anime. You absolute soy boy.
Why is Alex the bad guy ?
@@rohitsaha8264 bro ain't no way you're copying the same comment over and over in different comment sections. Me and you know your life is sad.
AN ABSOLUTE THRILLER! BEST ENTRANCE OF ALL TIME!
Shame about the exit lol
he’s gonna come back even stronger, i love how he takes the loss as a man and actually analyze the fight and see what he needs to improve on. mad respect 👍🏻
He did not take a loss like a man he thinks its a bad stoppage and he could've won that fight if not stopped.
@@Mercuryjoono it’s Ohk if he thought it was an early stoppage he still acknowledges Poatan as a great fighter and the champion and isn’t saying he didn’t deserve the win
@@Millennium00 He still said the fight would've gone to distance and got him a win if it wasn't 'mistakenly' stopped early, which essentially takes the credit from the champ.
Hope he loses again just so i could never see this kind of comments about him again
0-3
Always the Champion in my life, Adesanya you a real OG.🖤
Sending genuine love and appreciation to Izzy and David. Thank you for the entertainment in and out of the cage. xoxo
Dave 'Blakamoto' is the perfect example of someone who would be unlikely to get his break, but knowing the right people has helped him get it, which allows his talent to shine. His familiarity and inside knowledge of the subject definitely helps, but his skill as an interviewer is undeniable. Awesome stuff, well done. Both of you.
Damn Izzy. Much love and respect for doing this. It’s interesting hearing your thoughts. You are humble for doing this.
This is what champions do, I know you will be back better than ever! God bless you my fellow Naija 🙏🏾❤️
Izzy bro, you don't know how much energy you've given to me up to this point, this video included. Deepest thanks 🙏
Every time when Alex is doin good in the fight izzy has the excuse to say it was his leg was being funny but when izzy doin good nun wrong wit his leg?? Like bru this izzy cry baby girl is so delusional his leg didn’t hit no nerves, he can’t except Alex out kick him and check 90% of izzy leg kick and Izzy legs were destroyed after 5 round of em getting kicked
It’s all apart of the Game, your legacy is so much more than a win/loss , whatever the outcome is, what you’ve accomplished is extremely inspirational to people all over the world and the journey only continues 🙏🏿
He said he trust his coach and told him its a good stoppage. But he still keeps saying early stoppage?
@@wonrei he’s gonna be 4-0 soon and pretend like he beat Alex in all 4 of those losses lol
@@wonrei because hes right why they dont stop him vs gastelum
@@micahjohnson138 Because he was more rocked vs Alex lol. Go and rewatch the finish. Marc is screaming at Izzy to improve position for ages, and what happens? Izzy gets dropped! When he gets back up he eats more damage, tries to clinch Alex like 3x and can't (even reaches the wrong way at one point), eats more damage, slumps on the cage looking down with his hands at his sides (not intelligent defence), and eats a right hand clean on the chin before Marc steps in as Pereira loads up a massive left uppercut to Izzy's badly exposed head. That uppercut was going to KO Izzy. He should thank Marc every day for the rest of his life.
Also Alex's power is levels above Gastelum lol, and Gastelum went for a fucking takedown. The situations aren't even close to comparable. There is no chance Izzy survives 3mins vs Alex that badly compromised. Izzy said post fight he was waiting to take Alex down 'again' and beat him up, but Izzy was unable to take Alex down once the whole fight. Izzy reversed a trip of Alex, which isn't a takedown - it's a reversal. Izzy was just going to keep eating damage until he was slept. His fans should be happy he wasn't stretchered off with an oygen mask again.
Wishing you good health, happiness and success bro. Happy holidays. Life still treats you good so don't let one night bring you down. Your a legend on the bounce back 💪
The beginning of this video made me happy. When u say I felt so comfortable in there….it’s like all the fights u dominate and he’s just lucky when WE MMA FANS see that you ALWYAS dominate him! Next fight you get your belt back 🏆 love you brother, take your time, ENJOY your sport, you got this! Igbo kwenu! Chukwu gozie gi! Eze 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
You don't dominate someone you are 0-3 against fanboy.
@@Neil-qg9cw you can dominate a fight and still lose. Look what happened to usman. And izzy was dominating the fight. And the last time they both fought izzy was beating him until he got caught. Stuff happens 🤷♂️
Respect and appreciation for you champ 🔥🧡
It’s great how eloquently you share your perspectives of your life - it’s so far from normal, yet you’re wholly grounded and real, it keeps it relatable 👊🏻
You were the better fighter overall, the better Dagestani, the better composed ..
As a Doctor, I don't think people fully understand the extent of peroneal nerve damage and what it could do to your stance & fighting.
You won't be able to lift the foot comfortably (if even lift it at all), toes dragging while walking, weakness in ankle and foot .. and a lot more.
I'm not a fighter but damage like that will damage your balance, ability to do foot work, distribution of weight, stance switching and many subtle details that compose the art of striking and even wrestling, he wouldn't be able to take you down if that leg was clear, and you proved to be the better wrestler with a damaged leg (how crazy is that) ..
I don't think people understand how well prepared you were, and how many levels you could've taken this to.
And watching you on Flagrant made respect you as a person even more that I already do.
You WILL come back stronger, and I think you know exactly what to do next time, the championship will return to its rightful owner.
All the best Bro.
P.S you should focus on your health and take care of the Meniscus injury, you've been the most active and it's time to rest up a bit for a huge comeback.
Izzy's a true fan of the sport! Even appreciating watching himself getting belted! He looks super motivated now - can't wait for the rematch!
GOOOOOD DID
Bro hes not an mma fan. Didnt even realise the comparison between silva and rampage with himself and alex
Glad you’re keeping your head up, Izzy. Much love from 🇺🇸 we all know you’re gonna bounce back harder than ever
Izzy wins an exchange: yea I saw it all coming man my distance management was so good
Izzy loses an exchange: MY LEG MY LEG MY LEG WASNT WORKING
Izzy, I appreciate you not running and hiding after this loss. It would have been really easy and frankly understandable if you had. But you remain confident and will not let this bring you down, and it's inspiring. I'm going through a really difficult phase and it's seeing things like this that inspire me to keep grinding, keep pushing. Thanks man

Humble fighter reacting to a KO loss: He/she caught me fair and square.
Izzy: Alex got me, but only because of my knee… I wasn’t even rocked, etc, etc, excuses, excuses.
Joe Rogan: Izzy is such a humble dude, isn’t he?
It was an all time ppv, a phenomenal show, next fight one of the biggest rematches ever in ufc
Took me a while to finally watch any Izzy video after the fight.. It hurt. But I just saw a random video of a UA-camr speak so well of Izzy, and in that moment I remembered that it’s your impact that defines you as a champion, not the outcome of one fight. Yeah. Go through your training arc champ, and bounce back like I know you would! 💪🏿❤️🔥
Respect 💯 take wins like losses, you'll bounce back brotha
This was my first ufc event I went to even though I’m a huge Izzy fan and he lost it was still an amazing night and the energy and vibe was just DIFFERENT. It was a night I will never forget good luck getting that belt back and getting revenge
Glad your taking it well. Sad that your legendary run ended but it’s the start of a new chapter and hopefully a new run of dominance

Brooo you are so incredibly good for this world I appreciate your energy and honesty.
For the editor of this vid - congrats, you are great.
Since Adesanya lose, i reached a new level of respect for him, i mean, that whats bring me in to fights, the mentality, the way that the fighters gotta go through things and keep grindin. Besides, that i love whatching the fights itself, i see the fighters and the game as a metaphor of life, and the way that adesanya took his lost, is super inspiring. We all should apply that on our lives. Big champ!
Coudlnt have said it better myself bro I feel exactly the same
this !!!!
Sore Loser, that's not true. I'm not sure where's the part he accepted this loss, in every single interview he talked like he would've won, if it wasn't for the Stop, so fuck that, understanding between lines. Blind fans
wow! the way he took the loss! you mean @2:10 when he literally blames it on his leg RIGHT AS THE LEFT HOOK LANDS on his chin? what a way to take a loss! delusional fighter, delusional fans. your king needs to learn how to take a loss properly.
Adesanya fans are the new mcgregor fans. The fucking delusion thinking hes taking this loss ok instead of making excuses. I have less respect for him now. Atleast nobody can say mma fans are racist anymore. Imagine if this was any other champ saying this shit lol. Ppl would be lambasting him
It took me 6 days to get off the loss. It was hard. It is good to see you up and about. I drew a bit of strength from your energy.
6 days, LMFAOO. WTF AHAHAHA 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Yes real fans understand
Me too my brother, me too
Lol wtf
I hope your life became better by now brother. Here, have some milk🥛
Just came from UFC 287 after his victory, this is definitely the most important video of this Channel. It proves his mental strength, he wasn’t defeated in his head like a lot of fighter would have been , he had full confidence of his chance to come back . LEGEND!
Same!!! I wanted to see how he handled the defeat
I am a huge fan of Adensaya. I was surprised that he was allowing Pereira to constantly back him against the cage... his length, evasiveness, and ability to keep his distance were neutralized once he gets backed against the cage. I hope he bounces back and learns from this fight!!!
His length was neutralized the moment he went against Pereira since they both have around the same length.
Try walking into that left hook and see how that works out for you
Awesome fight Izzy takes a loss like a true martial artist. Appreciate the performance you and Alex put on for the fans Can't wait to see what is next.
Takes a loss like a true delusional chump .
Yeah he’s delusional and making excuses. Taking the loss like a child.
I didn't realise making dozens of excuses was considered taking a loss well 🤣 He's taking it badly!
He admitted it was not a bad stoppage. He just wanted the ref to let it go longer. He even admits that probably involves his ego. Also if you have ever had a fight and had your bell rung you know you are coherent but you are compromised. Not the same as being out on your feet. He even describes how Alex got him in that predicament by taking his movement away. He didn't call it cheap, he didn't deny Alex caused it. He gave a reason for how he got stuck against the cage. Are you mad Izzy isn't saying he got his ass beat. That's cause he didn't. Izzy and Alex had a great fight which Izzy won a lot of the exchanges. Did not change the fact Alex put a fight winning combination together.
@@landenx i see no excuses cry
Hey Champ
I hope you're good. So sorry about your loss.
Love how you're taking it.
I'm sure you've gotten a lot of messages and I hope you see mine.
I can imagine how you felt going into this match after losing to him twice beforehand.
But you're the best in the world Israel, for the rematch please remember what you said "When I'm having fun, I'm the best in the world"
Have fun, have a walkout theme.
Heck, dance and be free.
Have fun Izzy and show the world that you're the BEST.
I love you,

an incredible fight bro . amazing effort . Your an inspiration izzy . thank you for everything you’ve done so far 🙏
I really enjoyed this interview. It's interesting to see what Israel was thinking about during the fight, and his attitude towards the officials and himself afterwards.
GSP came back better than ever after losing to Matt Serra.
Take care of yourself, Izz. We'll be cheering you on down in the 'Naki. Keep fighting the good fight.
Thanks Bill
I was hyped to watch this when it came on my feed. I fucking love watching you fight. So technical and timed and managed. It’s so interesting to watch, as much as it is exciting. And when I first seen you break down one of your fights, it was crazy insightful as to what you are thinking. So this one I needed to see. Because in my opinion (and I know nothing btw, but it hurt a little because you are the best of the best in my eyes) you were piecing him up all fight, until the final round, I feel like you were trying to have too much fun. So to hear you admit that in this video, I’ve got mad respect for you now. You have been humble in defeat and have responded perfectly. Have your rest, reset what you need to reset, then come back and retaliate like only you can. Let’s go champ!
Fanboy. He lost because his defenses were broken by Pereira not because he was having too much fun
This was the first PPV that I've ever purchased. I was shaking with excitement during the entire event. Money well spent.

You only need internet and its basically free if you know where to look

Good on you for buying unlike these broke children.
Im amazed that he actually uploaded this, not only because he lost, I know he doesn’t care about that but also because he’s picking the match apart and saying he knows what to do in certain spots. If I was Alex I would watch this. But Alex probably thinks he won’t even need to because he won the first time.
This is something that ganna happen it life full of up and down so it amazing see you soon king of the boys❤
That was an awesome fight to see. Hopefully you two fight a couple more times, belt or not. Haven't been that hyped for a MW title fight since Silva was the champ.
Ah yes, went Anderson was beating bums. So exciting.
@toptier valtr chael sonnen, Dan Henderson and vitor belfort weren't scrubs
Holy sh*t !!! What an episode this was 👍 I was totally immersed from start to finish. Even though my man David Blackamoto reads all his questions of a piece of paper (Ariel 😂)
He asks all the right questions we want him too and OMG Izzy delivers with the ultimate champion answers. This was so beautifully put together. Im a kiwi boy and when I saw Izzy cleaning his middleweight championship belt with a kiwi as red tea-towel I knew from that moment that Izzy wasn't just the best fighter I've ever seen in the octagon... It showed how down to earth he is. All this while living out his imaginative dreams that he turns into reality. It's only a very special person that can do all this. So just a massive thank you to Izzy and David Blackamoto 🖤 for giving us this amazing content (the coolest brothers)
I will never understand why our government and media don't worship you guys (city kickboxing) such amazing achievements, all the fighters have cool and funny personalities. Eugene the goat 🐐 coach. I wish y'all we're made more aware and noticable in the New Zealand media because it would inspire even more people.

this is unprecedented! Izzy, u r as genuine as it gets! a true dose of reality. keep building & the journey continues....
How is this a real comment from a person that watched this video😂
@@soapdog5336 We are not hater go watch tu the fat guy mma guru if you want hater Also what wrong with this video ?
@@micahjohnson138 him being blatantly delusional
@@soapdog5336 nah you are this is just fighting these guy dont care dont take it to serious they are the 1 who get the money lol
@@micahjohnson138 what are you even trying to type out there bud your not making to much sense.
If you want know how great a man is, it is during the moment in time when things don't go his way. Israel Adesanya is one of the greatest fighter and champion in the world. I learned to face my own live's disappointment through his strength. ✅✅✅ Thank you champ 🏆
i didn't think I'd have the courage to watch this since I didn't watch the fight. this fight, honestly, his next fight, will be his biggest yet. i want the doubters to show up. i want all odds to be again him. he said it's a nice arc for his story, but it's his greatest arc. izzy will shock a lot of people. the first half is always the greatest for the villain, but the second half, is always greatest for the hero. that's just how the world works, in fiction, and in reality. this is far from over. the belt might get traded a few times, in the process, solidifying his status as one of the best to ever do it. adesanya needs pereira, and when he finally conquers him, you'll know why he's been the champion. you people sleep on him way too much. i will never stop believing in this man. in this next fight, greatness, in all aspects, will be displayed by israel. the real ones know.
Amazing how Izzy is approaching the after fight !! 👏🏻
All Respect #champ 🙏🏻🇧🇷
LEGEND 👑🇳🇬
It's amazing how he does nothing but make excuses and act completely delusional about how the fight ended?
@@Daddy_Bear_722 Agreed. He was slumped halfway onto the floor, hands completely down and eyes looking at outside the ring. He was so far gone and the ref saved him.
Izzy took that to the CHEST BUOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYAKASHA
I would rather see an "early stoppage"( which wasn't early in my opinion. ) than to see Pereira absolute decimate him and lay him out on the mat. I probably wouldn't wanna see a rematch if that happened. The stoppage felt great and makes me think that another fight is indeed possible
i hope this time we see him flat on the mat
Yo man, that fight was fire!!! I'm so happy for our boy Poatan. You are a legend and Alex respect you a lot. Keep the hard work we wanna see a rematch, you guys make UFC shine. Let's gooooo 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Edit: Congratz old new Champ! But I know it was not about the belt, i know that was much more than a simple belt. I'm sad for Alex loss but at same time I smiled for you victory. You guys are fucking warriors!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
We will never see another Israel Adesanya, his fight IQ, his respect for the sport, his attitude in a win or a loss is nothing short of admirable. He will go down as one of the greatest martial artist in history. It's amazing to watch such greatness in real time. God bless him.
Bro Izzy = Braveheart.
I would be TERRIFIED of fighting stone hands. He is a full weight class heavier than Izzy in the cage. He’s massive. And he’s knocked him out. Just the fact that Izzy stepped in the cage against him shows he’s got courage for days. Also, Izzy performed well. Warrior.
hes the same weight becos he weighed in that, stop making excuses
@@lukeemery1635 not on the fight night
Meat riding is crazy
He's been fighting smaller guys with less reach all this time. look at the kelvin fight.
@@Mercuryjoono well he's fighting everyone not that he's cherry picking small dudes. If that's how u want to put it then khabib has been fighting people who can't wrestle etc. Many arguments can be made
Izzy, I have never predicted a loss on your behalf in any fight before. This time I could feel it. No one believed me but I know this fight game very well. My two cents is that he didn't beat you physically (leg, strikes). He beat you mentally. Don't give him the title of a Titan. You're the titan! Don't let him beat you mentally next time. Love you man.
Well said my Stephens
Very interesting take I have to agree. This was a LHW title fight. Alex was just too much power and size really matter at this level.
@@dopemusic6414Izzy had him he could of very well eaten him alive
I love this take
Well said!!! 👊🏿.
When you lost it felt like I lost. I unsubscribed from ufc and anything reminded me of MMA just gave me anxiety but seeing how you're taking it Izzy makes me feel alot better and now im back in tune and more motivated than ever. It happens to the best of us champ stay true to yourself brother I'm with you 100%
That’s how I felt
Dude I was upset too only because it was there for the taking. Izzy literally need 2.5 minutes and it was his.
Don't be down brother champions come and go 👊🏽👊🏽
Weak snowflake
Facts he’s the reason I even watch that shit and him to lose like that was weird. Him being so cool and composed definitely helped.
You got ur revenge back brother thank you for the inspiration to us all ✊🏿 …HISTORY
Yo izzy you will get that title back everyone already believes it and i know it keep it up man you are doing amazing and a true person to look up to
I''m brazilian and super fan of pereira, i gotta say you're a truly champ man
The fact that we have the two potential MMA Goats just casually on UA-cam uploading videos frequently is a madness - you and Volkanovski are just fucking awesome for doing shit like this. I bet if Volkanovski ever loses, he'd do the same thing with the same smile.
Nowhere near goats..goats dont have two losses in their prime
This is so beautiful. Capturing retrospective lense while the iron is warm.
Heal Up Physically And Mentally, Glad You Are STILL On Track, 👊🏾🦁🦁🇳🇬🇺🇸
You are already champ as a human being 💪, you are the person who I wanna become.💪
No words of motivation needed if you here.
Rest reset retaliate
Get the rest you need champ. You've put in a crazy amount of work! Thank you for your work in themiddle weight division! You've given us some classics. Take care of your self bro.
He'll be back, trust me. If there was 7 extra seconds after the rocking in the first round, Izzy would still be the champ
@@oxblaide6296 I agree 100%
he’s not the champ
@@oxblaide6296 ...He had 25 minutes to win and he failed now you fanboys are wishing for an imaginary 7 seconds🤦♂ . The "better" fighter shouldn't be hoping for more time at the end of a round (based upon a punch after the bell) if you are superior. This is embarrassing! It's like IF Pereira said: "If only there were 3 fewer seconds in the first round, I would have won it".
@@truth1844 relax bro. You sound so bitter lol
The best thing I love about Izzy is that Tha fact that, all fighters see fights as a life and death affair which it is but to Izzy its more than. It's an Art and a Game. Waiting on your hunting season champ.
Bro is just such an amazing and humble person you’re fire bro definitely an inspiration that belt will be yours again
Mad excuses can’t accept the lose
"I was on my way of beating him"
I understand you feel that way.. BUT.. there is no such thing in competition. When you compete, you either win or you don't.
Imagine a F1 pilot saying " i was on my way of winning the race but..."
or a tennis player "I was on my way of winning the match but...".
There is a famous quote from Dominic Toretto:
"It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile. Winning is winning."
You should get in the ring and compete since you know so much about fighting
It’s not how many you win, it’s how many you show up for, super proud of you Izzy. Thanks for the energy you put out into the world
Unless you wanna be the champ then it’s how many you win
No it is quite literally about winning
that's something losers say
Insert Khabib-hating joke here
@@calvincalvin3132 Go read "The Man In the Arena" by theodore roosevelt, you're basically the random nobody he talks about.
This hurts, my first time watching the fight since that night glad to see izzy be calm and humble
“Rest...Reset...Retaliate!”
✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
I kept looking at different possibilities...different ways the fight could have went. I didn't want to accept it like I was in there. Was proud of your performance and how you are moving forward after the result. One of the greatest champs. Can't wait for the recclaiming arc of your film.
3-0🗿
This isn’t the Marvel multiverse bruh. Your boy got left frozen like Elsa. And new.
Ref save his life buddy 😉
Izzy fans are so weird, life isn't a movie/anime with arcs n shit 😆 He has only made excuses post fight? Why are you proud of that? Izzy needs to admit he lost fair n square, or he's getting slept next time.
Sorry if your lives are this stale and mundane waste of time pushing you to come watch this video and look for comments to react to negatively. No judgement. Wishing you the best.
Izzy you’re a legend man! You were literally dominating that fight! Rest easy man I know the comeback is going to be unreal! You’re inspiration to all of us! Rest, reset, and retaliate! 💚🔥🙏
Dominating the fight? What did u watch
@@supremeleaderarmy9164 He was winning 3-1 before the finish. Chill out dude
Wasnt dominating at all
@@StormyNormy
U claimed dominating, it was u that said it. Lmfaoo
He 100% not dominate the fight
“I was still fine” as his head is bouncing around like it’s in a pin ball machine
I have always loved and admire you as a champion but now I loved and admire you even more Champ. You are still the best in that division. It’s a good idea not to rush into a rematch bro. Much respect and you will be my champ forever with or without the belt.
You got this bro. I was shocked that you lost, but I know that you're more than capable of beating Alex.
Also, I just wanted to let you know that you inspired me to learn how to fight. Even if I just dabble in it a bit. I've always loved fighting, and I was a huge Anderson Silva fan. Seeing you fight him and then realizing that you were also a big Anderson Silva fan really motivated me for some reason.
Shut up you anime watching virgin your not making it to the ufc 😂😂😂😂
You looked fearless out there. One of the few times my favorite fighter loses a great fight and I can still watch the replay after. Incredible night
You could literally see the fear his his eyes. Alex saw it too
Every time when Alex is doin good in the fight izzy has the excuse to say it was his leg was being funny but when izzy doin good nun wrong wit his leg?? Like bru this izzy cry baby girl is so delusional his leg didn’t hit no nerves, he can’t except Alex out kick him and check 90% of izzy leg kick and Izzy legs were destroyed after 5 round of em getting kicked
@@melancholymartialarts7095 I also see fear in alex eyes when izzy almost ko him end round 1
@@micahjohnson138 buuut he didn't...I like Izzy man, but cmon " almost" doesn't matter. He's got finished twice now
