I think adesanya wins, imavov was getting winded quickly against allen and looked to be slowing down against cannonier before finding the finish, I think he will lose a striking match and if he tries to wrestle he will gas himself out like he did against allen and get tko'd in later rounds.

 

[Sonny Qc]

Idk, when I bet on Adesanya, he lose,
when I bet against him, he wins.

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Imavov Tko 4th

 

[VinceArch]

Izzy by decision. I think Nassourdine is durable enough to make it to the end of the fight but he'll be a beaten mess.

Bragging rights are for kids.

 

[Domitian]

I think Israel takes this by decision without much trouble. Probably 50-45 Izzy.

 

[Dr Fong]

Not a smart fight to bet on.

Adesanya should win if he still has some left in the tank, but he is obviously on the slide and it's hard to know how fast he is travelling.

Dude has had 114 pro fights across MMA/kickboxing/boxing according to some sources. Should not still be fighting.

He's on a decline, but Imavov isn't as good as advertised and in Israel's last fight against Dricus he looked world class.

 

[Unheralded Truth]

The Izzy that fought DDP last time around should be able to dominate, that said I don't see him landing those finishing shots.

I took Izzy by decision

I agree with this. I would like to see Izzy pull it off for old times sake, but it feels like the end of his career, and time to start losing to solid fighters like Imanov.

 

[Tweak896]

Should be Izzy by decision or tko, but it's all up to him. Imavov is pretty conservative so probably not many great counter opportunities. I thought Izzy was checked out when he first lost his belt and he came back to beat Pereira. I'm kind of excited for this fight even though it can easily be a slow one. Going with Imavov by decision.

 

[Question]

Izzy decision, might be a few close rounds
Now take into account, I did predict Izzy's last four fight outcomes wrong lol

 

[Question]

I think Imavov shows some signs of being a very good fighter, but his fight IQ and gameplans seem to hold him back
While I think Izzy should win, he does seem a bit checked out. This could be a breakout performance from Imavov if he can put it together

 

[blunttruth]

Yeah, it all depends upon who shows up in the mindset to fight it out on that night. I can see Imavov having more fire and desire in this one, while Izzy may delay, coast or fade. I see a disappointing fight with Imavov getting a split decision. The after fight discussion on Sherdog, will be livelier than the fight itself.

 

[josh3000]

Izzy is overall a better, more technical striker than Imavov; I think Izzy is gonna pick Imavov apart throughout the fight and eventually tko/ko him after Imavov starts to fade

Does Izzy retire if he loses?
