He did very well in this fight. Didn't win the fight by a long shot and absorbed many leg kicks but stalled Adesanya enough and avoided Adesanya's power shots to his body/head.
Definetely did better than Costa or Whittaker.
He clearly is not champ material, but may be #2 mw right now. Either that or Izzy just had a horrible performance. Really wasn't landing any power shots except for leg kicks and even these didn't really slow him.
While he isn't a master of any discipline, his strength and durability is such that Izzy couldn't really faze him.
Imo its pretty clear that
1. Izzy
2. Vettori
3. Whittaker
4. Brunson/Costa
