Adesanya is

[gevoudane]

Yet he keeps winning. And the old guy will spank this newb also.

Kevin Gastelum: 15-3 mma TUF 17 winner

Israel Adesanya: 16-0 mma, 6-1 boxing, 22-5 kick boxing. most titles in king of the ring history, king of the ring champion, Glory champion

Being more accomplished in the UFC at his age maybe but Isreal was more accomplished in combat sports at Kelvins age.

Also arent they only two years apart?

No... still 29

And it's still not old. Especially in a young career and at a pretty heavy class

Yeah but his post will have aged better than yours in a few months haha

Apparently he was dominating up until the KO.

I think its his kickboxing record/experience that's propping him up. He is " new" to MMA, only a few fights into the UFC and fighting the best and doing well, in that sense he is a phenom. Whether or not he has what it take to become champion is another question.

Yeah we'll have to see, lucky for him he's been able to avoid most of the grapplers in the division. Brunson is a decent wrestler though so that was a good win, I definitely feel like they're giving him favorable matchups though.

Kelvin Is the easiest fight they could give him and I actually think Kelvin is going to eat one and floor Izzy.
