Alex Izzy 1 was definitely stopped a lil early

Bro let it go. Izzy was undoubtedly stopped fairly in the last fight and undeniably lost it and was TKO'd. He fought a smarter game and was much more aggressive despite getting his legs chewed up for his troubles. He won while in a compromised position with an excellent counter.

Your revisionist interpretations of the events are borderline autistic and quite honestly cringe. Take the impressive Izzy W and let the last fight that Izzy clearly lost go. He rectified that loss.
Izzy very wel may have lost anyways in 15 seconds who knows what could have happened? All I’m saying is it should have been allowed to go longer. Using words like autistic tells me all I need to know. <Lmaoo>
 
I'm well aware he's capable. But he was going out in that last fight. I think the ref did the right thing. Fighter safety comes first.You're following up with me for some reason even though I literally predicted the fight outcome.
No he wasn’t, he got rocked. It’s a fight that shit happens. The ref absolutely should have let the fight go on longer. I’m following up because this fight even further proves my point and is relevant to this specific conversation.

I'm an Izzy supporter and I still think it was a good stoppage. I don't like seeing my favourite fighters getting flat-lined unnecessarily and having their careers cut short. Let's disagree and move on.
 
Looks like the ref doesn't step in while he's still capable.
Izzy just proved he’s extremely capable in those situations. the ref should have let the fight continue a little longer. the result may have very well been the same. but on principle it was early.

Izzy said he was fine and immediately protested and now showed he’s capable in those situations. Some
Fan. Okay may guy.
 
Look at that, Izzy is still extremely dangerous when his back is against the cage even when hes seriously hurt. Change your mind? Do you think the ref maybe could have let the fight go on longer?

Not the same situation though, he looked somewhat hurt in the rematch and Alex was unloading onto his guard, in the first fight he was badly badly hurt trying to weave his head low, no way could he have thrown a counter like that.

he’s still competent and capable with his back against the cage and hurt. I think it’s safe to say the fight could have continued a bit longer. The result may have remained the same, but he deserved that opportunity.
 
I never understood what happened in the Daley/Diaz fight, aside from Daley being gassed did he trip on something or what @5:13 in the video? That was a weird fall for sure
 
What was your fight prediction?
I had Israel winning but in no way shape or form like that. I thought he was gonna wrestle from the third round and up because of how poor Alex’s cardio normally looks. I was even more convinced of it because of the way he chose to answer every question on whether he’d grapple more. There was a clearly disparity on the ground.

Rewatch it at qtr speed at 5:11 diaz lands a perfect right hand on Daley that's hard to see from that angle. Watch it in qtr speed and it's clear Daley dazed crazily from that shot.

I’m glad they didn’t end up grappling. I had a feeling it was a card in his back pocket that would only get played if absolutely necessary.

He’s lucky he didn’t have to resort to grappling, because to win the way he did striking only must give him some level of vindication. I wish we got to see a third round, I really wanted to know if he was gonna swallow his pride and grapple. I was positive he was waiting to catch him off guard in the third. Based on his “we’ll find out” answer it would have told me a lot about his psyche if he actually ended up wrestling. I wanted a peak into his mind.

Ya. He was probably more than ready, at a level of competency higher than Alex’s grappling, but so far we can’t know for sure.

yup, we will never know. I hope Alex and Izzy fight again. Their fights are very entertaining. I seriously hope he takes a long break before returning. he was out for a minute. i almost felt badly for him when izzy was shooting his arrows at Alex while unconscious, however, Alex was as gracious when he knocked Izzy unconscious. I know Alex has got to be pissed at that celebration against Izzy.

Do you think Alex and Izzy will fight again? Alex is up 3-1 he literally has nothing to prove against izzy. do you think any part of Alex would want to make Izzy pay for that celebration? Those two definitely don't seem to like each other.

I bet you any beef they had is squashed now and any rematch from here would be a healthy good sportsman rivalry. They have each others respect now without a doubt.

Actually, I think you may be correct. Good call.
 
Clearly Izzy is still extremely dangerous even after he’s been seriously hurt and his back is against the cage. It’s obvious now the fight should have been allowed to go on longer. Izzy ended the fight mid flurry.

LOL, stop it. Izzy was completely out of the fight and couldn't defend himself, it was a near late stoppage. Let's not use last night as any comparison. There's a big difference in what he did last night, it was in the second round and he took a leg kick and blocked the other shots before unloading. As opposed to the 5th round after a tough fight and taking about 20 strikes.

That’s not what Izzy said. Izzy said he was still good to go. It’s very obvious it was wrong for the ref to step in. Izzy protested immediately, and was defending. No reason to dig your heels. You can’t just assume he was done.
 
I am so sick to death of retards pushing this narrative that Izzy was somehow defending himself.

Here is the actual angle the ref saw in REAL TIME before he stepped in:

Izzy wasn't dodging or weaving shit. I can almost picture his brain pinballing around the inside of his skull as Alex bounced that last right off his temple. You literally could not ask for a better stoppage.

There's nothing that's even remotely objective about this OP. Just more biased fangirlism trying to hide the fact your boy got fucking slept.
Poatan didn't sleep Izzy, the ref jumped in. What Izzy did to your boy last night, that's what getting slept looks like.
