Izzy is the epitome of this confused generation.
He goes to BLM rallies. Hates Trump. Race baits (probably believes in critical race theory)
Dyes his hair pink, does his nails, wears pearls. Uses edgy terms like 'cap'.

Behind closed doors he fondles his dog (probably into bestiality) and has admitted that if his dog could talk he would reveal dark secrets about him.

I can't support fighters that support a terrorist group.
 
Hard no for me. When Strickland talks honestly about his tough upbringing, it's relatable and endearing. When he talks during fights, it's pretty funny. And I actually like his fighting style (unpopular opinion?) But I find the whole "I'll be as offensive as humanly possible and pass it off as humor" act to be disgusting. I've known that kind of guy in the real world, and I just ended up wanting to punch them in the face.

Sean Strickland challenged Israel Adesanya for the middleweight title at UFC 293 at the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney last month, claiming the belt in one of the year’s biggest upsets.

As member of the City Kickboxing Gym in New Zealand and training partner of Australian stars like Alexander Volkanovski, it was general perception that Adesanya was the home fighter. However, Strickland started showering praise on Australia from the moment he landed in Sydney. He went on to further connect with the audience during the presser and had them rallying behind him on fight night.

Former middleweight champ Robert Whittaker, who lost his strap to Adesanya in front of his home crowd in Australia at UFC 243 in 2019, believes he knows why the crowd rallied behind Strickland. While the newly-crowned middleweight champ is known for his polarizing opinions, Whittaker believes Australians don’t get offended easily. “The Reaper” also noted that Adesanya just tends to rub some people the wrong way.

I'm an Aussie and can understand people getting behind Sean. He talks shit, but seems like a real (not fake) person, plus he's a larrikin. Makes me crack up. Reminds me of an uncle of mine. He'd fight anyone or thing, too.

Izzy just seems like a strange dude & I don't find him funny at all.
 
Hates Trump.
LMAO. He's been pretty cordial with Trump. All the interactions and photos I've seen between them are friendly.

Adesanya is cringe, a try-hard, and kind of goofy but I respect the hell out of him as a fighter and doing what he did to Alex in their 4th fight. Australia supports Strickland because Adesanya KOd Whittaker twice in Melbourne in the same fight. I don't think its rocket science. Why did Adesanya get more cheers in Miami over Pereira? Simple, the US market likes him.

I'm not trying to be racist or anything but I've been around enough black people to understand that their slang should not be taken literally. The dog thing was weird when I saw it years ago but this "deep dive" into him being into beastiality is kind of bullshit. I find it hilarious how that video has been online for years and it now surfaces during the Strickland fight week... Especially when you see that the author of said video has a hard-on for Adesanya hate content. <Lmaoo>
 
Rumours that he sucked his dog off lol?! Based on what?
Izzy didn't suck off his dog (at least not that we know of)
But there was a video of him fondling his dog's private area for about a few seconds.
People didn't bring it up as much until Sean talked about it at the press conference
 
Izzy is a great fighter, but, fake person...Sean is more real, he just really tells you what he thinks and is...
I mean, the video with Izzy and the Dog was enough weird for me to call it a day and say...yeah, this guy is not right.
Izzy can be odd, I am cool, but, weird to the point you might be something else in the looney toon area...nah...as a person not a fan of the guy...just like when Drag Queens think they can act and dress like porn stars in front of kids.. thats just sick and twisted and that crap needs to stop now.
<{vega}>
 
Slightly off-topic, but it's fucking insane that Izzy and Rob were seen as the top dogs at middleweight just a year ago and not many thinking they could be beat by others in the division.

Now both just got beat handily by DeSean and DDP, not many saw that coming. Crazy shit.

That's exactly why we love this thing sir ;)

The problem with this generation, or I should more accurately say society today in general is that people like YOU always want to put someone in a box and make prejudice assumptions with little info about the person.

A lot of people here only see things in black and white. And no I'm not talking about race. So he went to a BLM rally. He also spoke about growing from that after and that he was emotionally reacting to something rather than responding. And that in the future he would respond and not react.

Israel was also probably the only person to publicly defend Joe Rogan and call out the real reason behind the "N" word controversy Joe was dealing with. That doesn't sound like something a racebaiter does.

He dyed his hair pink to show that things like that don't define his masculinity. But Israel always says that he believes men should be men, in strong and dangerous. Not controlled because you are weak. He references Jordan Peterson often.

So maybe he doesn't fit the narrative a lot of you try and push. Everyone doesn't just agree with one side on every subject.

People say Strickland is "real". And I don't doubt that he is. But Adesanya is too. Just because he's different doesn't mean his expression isn't true to himself.

This is the most retarded fucking thing I've read on this website in several weeks. That's amazing. Well done.
 
He is weird. He should focus on fighting and shut his mouth. Acting like diehard and then running for 5 rounds does not work either.

so since we're going off allegations and alleged truths, then im pretty sure
the "pAtRiOtIc, aLl aMeRiCaN" strickland has
pledged to more than one flag in his lifetime .....

<BronTroll1>
It was jerking off the dog, not sucking it off. And it wasn't a rumor - there was a video of him doing it that he posted himself. (An old video that no one ever paid attention to before.)
When that came back up, someone did a deep dive and found out he's into all kinds of weird dog related shit such as following porn where a girl acts like a dog, making weird references to dogs, etc.
strickland was apart of a vile group, and committed vile crimes so...what are we really saying. should we cancel them both<{shaqs}>maybe we should hire an investigator
and search for stricklands victims...im sure they have alot to say....

its mma......im surprised you're surprised. anyway lets see how long they stay on top......
i doubt neither surpasses izzy.......
Paints nails and wears a dress? Not sure why Strickland was the favorite.
I can't support fighters that support a terrorist group.
agreed i too cant support fighters apart of TERRORIST HATE
GROUP.......


<{Heymansnicker}>also everybody should be allowed to express themselves, freely.

<JerryWWF>since when did izzy become a comedian ?
{<hhh]and im so sorry you had to grow up with a role model like that.

the US market LIKED him. He lost a lot of fans, including me, the night of the Dricus incident.

After being on the fence about him for years, I finally became a fan of his after he knocked out Perera.

but he crossed a line with Dricus and alienated a lot of his fan base. It was blatant, disrespectful, shockingly cringe, and he went way too far. Unforgivable in my opinion.
 
You're too obvious with your name
hey if im wrong let me have it. nothing wrong with dialogue. but i warn you i can sense bs from a mile away....

As an Aussie I can tell you that Izzy is not all that popular here.
Simply looking up australia's history could of told you that....

Izzy hates Trump huh???

The problem with you is that you're attempting to use logic and rationality, but you yourself cant read the room.
basically
Its too late for izzy. this is the wrong sport for all that you are trying to say. all that stuff you're tryng to preach about its ok to have different opinions and not fitting into one box, yeah i get it, but that dont fly in certain situations.
its over. The moment he went to that rally, that was it. Izzy is marked and thats all there is to it. he might as well come out as full heel. Izzy could cure cancer and it wont be enough.. Only his fans and open minded people will like him.
but thats it.
I need not say anything else.
