43 year old Anderson Silva did better than Costa, Brunson, Whittaker

[Deleted member 546119]

and he took Adesanya to a decision

Imagine a role reversal, do you think a 43 year old Adensanya would survive against a 30 year old Anderson?

Not a chance

Adesanya has about 12 title defences to go before he can claim to be the MW GOAT

Anderson Bless

 

[FrappeDuRocma]

Adesanya improved a lot since that fight.

Lmao Andy is on a losing streak, Izzy took it easy on him in that fight

You think Anderson would beat Costa, and Whittaker?

Lmao Andy is on a huge losing streak, Izzy took it easy on him in that fight

You think Anderson would beat Costa, and Whittaker?

If Anderson was 30 and in his prime? Is that a real question?

Yes Silva would KO both of them

 

[TR1]

Let's be real, if Israel wasn't headhunting, he would have had Anderson rolling over and quitting with like 5 leg kicks.

 

[FrappeDuRocma]

Adesenya 2.0 would not miss that kick.

 

[effedup]

At least Anderson landed on him. Fucc.

 

[Kwic]

At least Anderson landed on him. Fucc.

Yeah, one of the biggest disappointments in recent memory, that Paulo fight (for a Paulo fan).

 

[ShreddinMMA]

Who knows what happened. But I'm still of the opinion Izzy fought Silva with more respect than any other MMA opponent he had.

Shit. Literally last night, he once again iterated how much respect he has for Silva.

 

[I am Everywhere]

Cool, lets book Anderson vs any of them. Lets see how it goes.

 

[DebtCollectorMMA]

Silva wins a 5 round rematch.

hed beat costa. costa is all hype

 

[effedup]

I mean I'm not gonna lie, he looked nervous. He had a lot riding on this fight of course and it was his first shot at the belt.

Still, he was putting up Tyron Woodley numbers

Andy was getting outboxed and subbed by japanese pro wrestlers when he was 30 so ye probably

If he didn’t fight with respect he would have fallen for the counters and potentially be on Silva’s highlight reel. Izzy isn’t an aggressive striker by no means and definitely not a wrestler like chael. He fought silva exactly how he should have and won. People need to stop trying to take credit away from silva.

 

[SpamuraiSensei]

As old as Andy is, if Izzy made a mistake he was going to get finished. Hence the respect.

Maybe. But you're not going to convince me Izzy gave Silva his best, especially since we've seen wayyy better performances before and since then.

Old Anderson is a toss-up, prime Anderson kills Bobby/Costa back-to-back.

 

[Orochimaru 大蛇丸]

Prime Anderson is the GOAT MW I agree, Anderson now would get murked by either one, it's not a toss up lol

 

[drbolony]

I wouldn't want to KO my hero either. I imagine that's how Islam feels about Khabib @Hitto

At least Anderson landed on him. Fucc.

Your AV made me go from 6 to midnight.
