Izzy would have lost in his 'prime' too.

Fighters hit a point in their 30s where they begin to go downhill, especially champs like Izzy that fight a lot and hide little.

Let's see, Izzy 35, checkmark there.

Izzy on a losing trend after successfully defending his title without loss for a long time, checkmark there.

I think I see a pattern developing.
 
DDP is a stylistic nightmare for izzy. Tall, fast, huge reach, impressive cardio. He fought using Whittakers gameplan, but DDP is more of a physical specimen and could do it better.

Kelvin Gastelum almost finished Izzy, the DDP fight played out exactly how it was supposed to, DDP would win most if not all of the time, unless Izzy can outpoint him and win a decision.

2 other unfunny/autistic trolls already made this exact same thread before you, spammer.
 
exactly,
this is the same guy who won decisions on Vettori and Cannonier
 
Idk. Still feel like DDP gives way too many openings for a prime counter striker not to exploit
 
Bro if this version of Izzy was putting a beating on DDP could you imagine what prime Izzy would have done.
and im for sure not the only one who knows there were so many times in that fight izzy could have finished DDP .
but my boy did well. just know that sloppy style wont last for long
 
"prime izzy" had worse bjj and tdd than current izzy, would get subbed by ddp inside two rounds
