Israel Adesanya's Absolute Destruction Of Costa Will Be The Most Ruthless Beatdown Ever Witnessed

The problem with this thread is that the assessment of how the fight will go is depthless. "Costas style is tailor.made for Adesanya". No its not lol. Its tailor made to give him.major problems. If you think he's gonna just catch Costa coming in, you don't understand what both guys actually do, not just on the surface. Costa is Izzy's biggest challenge yet mainly because of his fundamentals. Plus the combo Perreira hit izzy with is Costas specialty. Best 2-3 in the division
I'm not sure if any of you guys who reference that pereira fight realize that Israel was dominating that fight before the KO.
 
Ya, after the fight we can come back to this and see how you got Costa fucked up. Hes very technical, and yes Izzy looks like he'll be able to move laterally and get out the way. But to counter you got to set, unless you just leg kick and move. When he does set Costa will unleash to the head and body, I dont think Izzy has dealt with a body attack Costa will bring.

I know styles are different but in the Romero fight Izzy had a very difficult time drawing out Romeros counters, Costa didn't and was also able to make him pay. Romero respected Costas feints more. Izzys jab was non existent in that fight. Come to think of it I haven't seen Izzy employ a jab heavy game plan before. Anyways cant wait to see how this unfolds. Thanks for the back and forth, cheers.

I thought it was going to be a lot closer than that, Costa didnt have much at all.
 
Well it def wasnt all that savage. Very pretty tho. Masterful,technically perfect.
 
Costa didn't even land a fucking punch in 2 rounds, lmao great hot take OP, Mystic Mescaline outchea<DirkMavs>
 
Not even close lol. Have you seen Fig vs Benavidez 1-2? That's double murder right there.
