The way this guy fights is so fucking entertaining. Constantly offers his chin for opponents and makes them miss with absolutely ridiculous slips. He has large arsenal of techniques and so many ways to set his strikes up. Even his taunting game is extremely clutch.

I'd personally believe that he has more than enough tools to take Conor's place on UFC. Give him mic and mic is going to burn about the fire this guy spits.
 
No but His brother Jerusalem Adesanya is the real deal.
 
How many NZ or Nigerian Americans are there?
Not many, well no where near as many as those who 'claim' to be Irish so no he's not going to be Conor level.

And the NZ accent doesn't amuse people as much as the Irish one and 'who da fook is that guy?' does.

Well that could became an issue, but his fighting style is much more entertaining.
 
He’s the next Anderson Silva who can speak really good English he’ll be champ by the end of this year..

I'll agree 100%. Don't really see Robert Whittaker having anything against him because Israel is on whole another level at striking.
 
And he is going to get huge popularity boost after he KO's Silva in 1st.

Hopefully Bobby Knuckles can get through kelvin without sustaining a year long injury
 
After he KTFO Andersun, he will become a top name in the UFC for sure.

Is he going to achieve greatness or he's just another hypetrain Who's about to fail, idk.

Wait till his cousin Gaza Strip Adesanya hits the seen. He'll leave a massacre behind him. War Gaza!
 
He certainly has the tools. Both talent in the octagon and a personality that marketable.

And he's already amassed quite a few haters which is the secrete ingredient to success. You want people to tune in to see you lose just as you want them to tune in and see you win. 2019 could be his year.
 
Yea ufc missed the boat with booking Whittaker and Israel into a small stadium . Literally sold out b in 8 mins with only Whittaker v gastulem , Israel v silva. Could have sold out a 40 to 60k arena easily. .. instead went with the Rod Lavar arena 15k seating. Good stadium for the fans who were lucky enough to jag a ticket tho
 
Lets see him on the ground then we can talk
 
Israel Anderson Is a classic changing of the gaurd type fight

They almost certainly are paying Anderson ridiculous amounts of money to take what Is a almost certainly going to be a one sided destruction

If that Is in fact the case, It would appear the UFC seems to see the star power in Israel as well if they're paving the way for him like this. There's really no better way to do it than a dominant victory over the MW Goat and probably the best all time striker In the sport. Genius really

After that fight, there will still be questions regarding his overall game..but his stock will be very high.

He'll likely get the next title shot without having to face Yoel or Jacare, two of his toughest stylistic matchups in the division.
 
Does anybody else think there's a resemblance between him and nat king Cole.

A win over a rusty Anderson silva doesnt mean alot... he has to be tested against tougher competition. Let him fight someone like romero :)
