Poatan accepted the immediate rematch

[Shaddows]

Yah I think you were dropped on your head as a child if you don't think Izzy deserves a rematch. Next level salt.

And I think you are a lonely sad man for thinking that either I agree with you or there must be something wrong with me.

Let me ask you: How do you defend Aldo not getting a title shot then?

I don't defend it lol. He should have.
Your butthurt for Aldo's situation doesn't even remotely apply to Izzy and his reign.

This has nothing to do with butthurt, kid.
Your whiteknighting is not needed here also.

I just feel there should be a minimum before we deem a fighter's reign "long" (and award immediate rematches).
And if (in the eyes of the UFC) 8 title defenses were not enough, 6 title defenses should then not be enough as well.
I follow logic. You are the one too passionate to see clearly.

Ffs out of anyone, maybe in the history of the UFC, who deserves a rematch it would be IZZy. Did you guys hear the stat they kept mentioning? 20% of the main events in the last 2 years. Has been close to perfect. Whether you like him or hate him, you have to acknowledge what he’s done and that he def deserves a rematch. Based on his reign as champ AND based on the way the fight went. Personally, I thought he fought too timid and like he was delaying an inevitable result, but I have no issue with the rematch at all. He deserves it if he wants it

Yeah not so sure, his title reign was 5 fights, he lost badly to Jan at LHW....not so sure after being finished that he deserves the rematch right away...but hey it was a great fight and I am not against it.

I personally would like to see Alex fight someone else and lose, just so Alex will always live rent free in Izzy's head if a rematch never happens.

you think usman deserves a rematch with leon?

Yes I do, Usman was dominating Edwards badly and lost due to a last minute HK. He also already beat Leon and had a much longer more imposingly dominant run. Izzy on the other hand was not dominating the fight by any means even though he was up 3-1, he has now lost 3 times to Alex and his run was 5 fights 3 of which were not commanding performances by any means.

So yes to Usman and no to Adesanya, however I will still watch it as Iove the way these two match up.

Alex fought shit too, I thought.

Dude did fuck all except head hunt with the left. Never set it up or any of his kicks.

When he started throwing the jab it landed hard nearly every time, and you could see it was rattling Izzy. It blow my mind that Alex didn't think to throw that stiff jab or early and that he stopped doing it even when it was clearly working. Like, why the fuck wasn't he using that jab to set up other combos and the big left?

Just a weird approach. He made things so much harder on himself for no good reason lol.

Ohhh I hear ya man! I was literally yelling at the screen “Dude KEEP OUT THAT STICK!!! YOU HURT HIM WITH IT!!”

Hopefully Glover realizes that too and entrains it into Alex’s head that the jab alone is a weapon! Quick, sharp, offsetting and tough to counter.

 

[humdizzle]

he didn't say what weight class

he could vacate and force izzy into a 205 bout. izzy can't really say alex is running or scared of him at this point
