So where does Izzy go from here?

[Cowboy Kurt Angle]

Izzy is clearly done fighting for the title at MW and I doubt they are gonna give him someone that’s a rising contender, he should probably move up to LHW and fight some of the more mediocre strikers

 

[Laheys'Liquorland]

Retire.
Dreyga deletes sherdog account.
Chama.

 

[Captain Tenneal]

Take a year and move to lhw

 

[Black9]

Move up to LHW, fight Jamahal Hill then fight for LHW title.

 

[Human Bass]

Feed himself to Michel Pereira.

 

[Bret 'The Hitman' Hart]

Some great fights left for him still imo, but he needs to avoid DDP and Strickland.

The problem is Adesanya isn't the kind of guy to fight just to fight. He'll probably fight the loser of DDP - Strickland, and lose again

They’ll run it back if Sean wins

 

[13Seconds]

He seems like the type of guy who refuses to retire on a loss..

And following Izzy, his main thing IS fighting. He doesn't have any other gig like Rampage, DC, Mighty Mouse, Bisping etc... He's fighting soon.

 

[marvinparsons]

LHW doesn't make sense. I can't see many MWs wanting to fight him if it isn't for the title.

Perreira would be interesting and there's enough risk/reward there for him.

Chimaev in a 3 round fight would be interesting.

 

[payton]

move to 205.

 

[Bret 'The Hitman' Hart]

They’ll run it back if Sean wins

From what we've seen, he has more chances of beating DDP than Strickland imo, styles make fights.

He had opportunities to win tonight. Strickland dominated him from start to finish

 

[Pechan]

He keeps fighting and getting paid.

I agree but ufc would give DDP a rematch with Sean for a trilogy before Izzy gets a shot at one of them again

He's going to become a professional dog walker

pakistanya vs. jamala hill

Fights loser of rob vs khamzat

 

[Question]

I think he should of retired, start your UFC career in Perth and end it there
Like seriously I can't really think of any opponents he can fight next unless Khamzat loses to Whittaker and they make those two go at it

Anything else just kinda seems odd to stick around for IMO

 

[SalvadorAllende]

Fight top 10 guys and see if he can rack up maybe 3 good wins and get another TS before it is too late.

Pereira or Allen/Imavov winner would make sense.

Not like he looked like Tony Ferguson tonight.. he did ok.

UFC probably gives him Hermansson or some easy rebound fight.

 

[traditionally_irreverent]

Goes home and plays with his dog.

 

[Jose Beehive]

First time i've thought he has looked old in the octagon.. Could be added size, could be the same old hip feints, but regardless I find it hard to believe this decline will not be anything but a hard and fast fall from here on out should he stay at the top level of this division.
