Of course Adesanya is the better striker. But I think that Usman is physically stronger than Izzy. Can Usman control Izzy on the ground or against the fence to win a safe 50-45 decision ?
 
Usman works his TDs almost exclusively from the clinch.

Jan - though a lesser wrestler - is much stronger than Usman and couldn't do much against Izzy in the clinch.

Unless Usman sets TDs up with strikes, he won't get Izzy down and if he does get Izzy down, i don't think he'll be able to hold him there.
 
No wear near 60 lbs. Usman is easily close to 190 on fight day. If Usman moved up to middle weight I am sure he would be 200+ on fight day

That's what I think too. Size difference between Izzy and Usman isn't that big.
 
They will never, ever fight, but just to entertain the idea, Marty wouldn't be able to hold Adesanya against the cage for long or take him down. Derek Brunson couldn't do shit. It takes an expertly masked takedown (like Jan showed) or elite wrestling to handle Izzy that way. Usman's takedowns aren't that great, he doesn't mask them that well and he isn't strong enough to manhandle Adesanya.
 
I doubt it. Jan has like 60lbs on Usman.

Usman fights at 170 and Jan at 205.
Unreliable sources say Blachowicz weighs 225 in the cage. Considering he ain't ripped, that's probably true.
Usman cuts to the limit, he is probably around 200 in the cage.
135ers did cut up to 24 pounds in the UFC, so 30 is doable for a 170er.

So your math does not check out, AT ALL
Jan is only 5cm taller, that's 2 inches

Therefore Jan is 20 to 25 pounds heavier than Usman.
But Usman would easily put on mass for a 185 fight.
Consindering the gear he is on. He will gain weight quickly.
 
Everyone is certain that they know the outcome of hypothetical matches on here.

I'm not his fan, I keep trying to spread the word that he's a weirdo who uploaded a video of himself fondling his dog's genitals, and that tittygate is undeniably the result of PEDs, and all these posts of mine keep getting deleted. Plus I hate weebs since anime is basically CP.

I'm just not a fairweather fan subject to extreme knee jerk reactions like you people. Before last night, you all would have said that Adesanya would have KO'd Marty. Now that he lost, he's a bum. If Marty loses next and/or if Adesanya wins next, you'll 180 again. This kind of simplistic mind is comparable to that of animals really.
