Is Adesanya The Most Intimidating Fighter in MMA?

[Brodie]

He had arguably the 2 most dangerous fighters in his division (Romero/Costa) frozen, and scared to engage.

I think Costa taunted and stuck his tongue out more times than he did attempting actual punches.

When he did attempt one his few punches in the fight, he immediately got countered and finished.


Whittaker tried being the aggressor and got brutally KO’d

Costa a usual high output aggressive striker was shook and scared of the counter to the point that he was barely able to attempt any offence.

I think Yan is more intimidating. No flash, but he’s solid everywhere and his opponents know it.

 

[Sanserif]

Francis ngannou has got to be the most Intimidating ufc fighter currently...his last few opponents have not even survived the first round without being KOed.

 

[Krixes]

Izzy is just the most well rounded striker, you're gonna need to take this dude down if you wanna win.

 

[TheMessiah]

Ngannou is way more intidimating. Adesanya doesn't look intimidating at all but he's a damn good fighter

 

[Airdack]

Costa is as weird to watch. He had Izzy against the cage a few times via pressuring forward but instead of punching he kept going to a head kick when Izzy circled out. It’s like he was terrified of getting countered. Kelvin showed that while Izzy is outstanding he still has a tendency to take hits when his opponent pressures him well.

Im not sure if the lights got to Costa or if Izzy just mentally dominated him. Its like Costa was taking his time to conserve his tank but ate so many leg kicks and a hard head kick before he could even get started.

Kinda sucks, I wish Costa went out there on his shield instead of trying to out point a high level kickboxer.

Anyone can say whatever they want but in truth Jon Jones and Conor McGregor are the last guys they wanna have trouble with.

That's how Yoel always fights 5 round fights.

Paulo was bizarre, he was either overly intimidated by the fact that it was a 5 round fight, or he took a dive. Since from the very beginning he wasn't even pressuring and was fighting Izzy's fight.

Colby

Journeyman Jorge and Dilbert are ducking him hard, as is Fakenewsman

 

[kwijyboy]

Adesanya and Khamzat right now.

 

[13Seconds]

Ngannous last 4 fights are combined like 2 minutes or something.

 

[No Skill Gap]

Except for the fact that Izzy wasn't engaging with Romero or Costa either. Works both ways, that's why some fights look absolutely retarded with it's Izzy or Silva fighting. He deserves the blame just as much as Romero

 

[JAL]

its Khabib.. his last opponent was looking to his corner and telling them he didnt know how to get him of off him.. but Izzy is getting there.. Costa was kinda shook dude was scared to engage

 

[Mob69]

P4P it’s Khabib. In absolute terms, Francis N.

 

[Prelimtapper]

It's Khabib, but none of these guys at middleweight are close to Adesanya in the standup. It's becoming more and more obvious with every fight

 

[IloveTHIS]

now hes even more intimidating because you know the piece of shit might molest you on live TV while you are concussed.

 

[Takes_Two_To_Tango]

Ngannou by far is the most intimidating inside the cage. Outside the cage he's a teddy bear.

 

[Andreh]

No, he is not.
