Izzy doesn't even need to cut to weight 205

thats a myth. tigers folds and wont fight a male lion. they wont risk injury because they are solitary animals.they gass quickly .male lions are born to die and fight. lots of zoo owners in history reports lions always wins against tigers.
Absolutely made up BS

I have done extensive research on this for like a week straight.. The Tiger wins over a lion 99/100 fights.. Tigers are much bigger, stronger, faster, more athletic, and the fact that they are solitary makes them far more efficient predators.. All they do is kill shit.. They kill shit just to see if they can.. They can take down animals much larger then themselves. Tigers drag crocodiles out of the water and kill them.. They eat bears..

Every single fight I have seen in a tiger vs lion fight, the tiger wins... And they are on Youtube.

The tiger is the #1 land predator in the world

In a fight to the death, the tiger breaks a lion's neck and mauls it to death in less then a minute

Male lions have to fight other males to remain in control of their pride (hence their long manes which protect their necks from other lions). The mane armour and combat experience can put them ahead of the larger tigers one v one.
 
Yes, but there is one thing that I am curious about. If Jan can take Izzys shots, he can try to walk trough them and try to pin Izzy against the fence. Land 1 or 2 good shots and KO Izzy. If they stand in the center, Izzy will just outpace him. I also am curious how big Jan will look compared to Izzy
I remember Jan saying about a year and a half ago in an interview, that he is around 225 pounds in the cage, and walks around 230 pounds. Adesanya walks around 200 pounds. Jan had said he would like to try a fight at Heavyweight in the future. Jan will be bigger, stronger, and has deceptive speed. Jan already sent down two MW's who were moving up to LHW (Rockhold and Jacare). He will complete the Hockey Hat Trick with Adesanya. I think Jan finishes him. Surprised the number of people counting Jan out. If 5 foot 8 blown up welterweight Gastelum busted up Adesanya, so can a big LHW like Jan. Polish Power will connect.

Wrong again..

This is from the Smithsonian Institue

You might remember from high school health class that muscle weighs more than fat, which helps explain the tiger’s extra pounds. So it seems that the tiger would have a physical advantage over the lion.

But it turns out that we have some historical data to add to this conjecture, too. In ancient Rome, the tiger-lion face-off wasn’t uncommon. In 1959, a reader asked the Spokesman-Review this question, and the paper, in turn, asked William Bridges, the curator of publications at the Bronx Zoo. He told them that “back in the day of the Roman Coliseum, the smart money usually backed the tiger.” While we don’t have any great descriptions of the outcomes, ancient paintings of the event usually showed the tiger winning. And in the late 1800′s, the Gaekwad of Baroda, an Indian ruler, arranged a fight between the two beasts. Before the fight began, those running the bettor set the odds at 1 to 37,000 that the tiger would win. It did, and the Gaekwad lost 37,000 rupees.

And in 2011, a tiger killed a lion with a single paw swipe in a run in at Ankara Zoo in Turkey. The tiger apparently found a gap in the fence, and made its way into the lion’s enclosure. When they met, the tiger severed the lion’s jugular vein in just one stroke. Craig Saffoe, a biologist at the Smithsonian Zoo, also generally favored the tiger, telling LiveScience, “What I’ve seen from tigers, they seem to be more aggressive; they go for the throat, go for the kill. Whereas the lions are more, ‘I will just pound you and play with you.’”

the size different is less than you think, Jan is heavier but Izzy has longer reach and is taller
Jan is 6 foot 2 with a reach of 78 inches. Adesanya is 6 foot 3 (not his inflated 6 foot 4) with a reach of 80 inches. 1 inch height, and two inches of reach is not much. Gastelum was 5 foot 8.5 inches tall, with a 71 inch reach, and still busted up Adesanya. Jan will be around 25 pounds bigger come fight night. Adesanya said he will not put on any weight. Walks around 200 pounds. Jan is 225 pounds in the cage.
 
We about to see Silva vs Forrest again

Sure, Izzy being Forrest perhaps.

25 pounds is nothing, Izzy is not a brawler

how much do you think Costa weight in the cage? I say about 210-215 with lesser bodyfat than Jan,

so not a problem for Izzy

Izzy has a one each reach on Jan and the height difference is two inches. Neither of which will play a role in this fight since it's so small. But the weight will matter, Jan has a solid 20lbs on Izzy and will come in at 220/225. While the speed in this case definitely works in Izzy's favor, the moment there is a clinches, grinding and grappling it heavily works in Jan favor.
 
Jan's grappling is heavily overlooked in this fight.
 
Gonna be good to see this one. Either everyone on the izzywagon was right all along or jan drops a polish sausage from hell on his ass.

Costa is no way the same fighter as Jan. Bad comparison. Jan is also a much better grappler. Jan also has a 78 inch reach. Costa is 71.5 inches.
 
Does anyone even consider jan the real champ?

Why wouldn’t he be the real champ? Jones seemed to welcome the challenge ringside. Then a few months later he suddenly vacated. And now he hasn’t fought in almost a year. And has no fight on the horizon for a minimum of 6 months.

In my eyes Jones knew Jan would KO him, and he vacated to protect his LHW legacy.. As tarnished as it is.
 
Arrogant Izzy is about to be humbled and sent back down to LHW training class (also known as MW).

When Jan lays on Izzy for five rounds and Izzy loses by decision hopefully he takes his fans with him; they are beginning to reach McRapist fanboy levels of delusion about their beloved idol.
 
Jan is the perfect matchup for him to win the belt. He doesnt have a great ground game or great wrestling to do anything to Izzy I dont think.

Im neutral to this argument but watched a National Geographic episode on this, and no, tigers usually prevail in this scenario.
