Is TRT Vitor a better striker than Adesnaya?

He got out struck going up a weight class, lasting into the 4th round (longer than LHW champions Shogun or Machida, for example), coming in short notice against the prime version of the guy who out struck literally everyone at said higher weight class? He must suck!

WTF bro its 1999 we as fans don't know that the threat of wrestling makes strikers defense change and less potent
 
More dangerous, but I wouldn't say better.
I agree but it also depends on what is meant by better

Izzy has more striking accolades per say. His defense was also much better.

But Vitor KOed way more guys and way more all time greats in MMA
 
Izzy would’ve gotten slumped, TRT Vitor had that head kick streak over Rockhold Bisping and Dan while lifting him off his feet with an uppercut

Izzy would’ve been just another victim of 2013 Belfort, little Kelvin almost shadow realm’d him with a head kick lmao
 
Vitor had better hands with more power, but Izzy’s overall the better striker.
In a hypothetical prime Vitor vs prime Izzy fight I’d pick Izzy by decision.
