Who looked better against Jan? Poatan or Izzy?

I think the thing we are missing here is how impressive of a performance this was for Jan. He is almost entering that Dan Henderson territory of never knowing when this guy is gonna be officially done

Exactly but Jan is class. He doesn't use gear. Imagine trt Jan. <Moves>

I love the subtle jab at hendo haha but really you're not wrong! You gotta wonder how some of these guys would look and fight with the TRT script.

Everyone laughed at Ben Rothwell when he got busted for roids cause he's fat as hell but I bet those drugs kept him relevant MUCH longer than he ever would of been without them. Makes you wonder how much longer our current group of retirees would be able to hang around if they got the same leeway

How? Rd 1 Jan, 2 and 3 Alex. Jan getting a takedown in the 3rd doesn't win the round. Jan doing nothing with the takedown in the 3rd is what lost him the round.

Alex seemed to be less overwhelmed and able to hold his own on the feet, but did struggle in the first with the wrestling.

How many topics about Poatan you guys from Brazil will create? Because he hasn´t even won the title and you guys seem like evangelicals spreading a message.
 
What a strange thread. How is this a question....

Alex outstruck Jan clearly, had his legs limping bad, rocked by many jabs, keeled over and ready to go end of 2nd round. Jan outgrappled him but outside of a meh choke attempt didnt have him in danger.

Izzy got oustruck AND outgrappled. Jan had him mounted and fucked end of round 5. Izzy was probably finished with 10 or 20 seconds more. Jan took down both 3 times but he did far better against Izzy.... Where he actually yknow won the fight?

Bizarre thread.

Yes, the UFC hires the judges and refs. The athletic commissions have no say at all.

Are you simple?

And Alex beat Jan 2 - 1. Jan just came to hug.

Well Hendo started KOing guys on obnoxious amounts of trt. Bisping got brutally ktfo and didn't know what trt was. Bisping didn't know what trt Is and he convincingly destroyed him in a rematch. Trt Bisping retires Hendo.

Well, Jones comes to mind. Lesser fighters would be on a lifetime ban. Notorious fir gear and eye poking or hitting grounded opponents with knees.
 
@StonedLemur, Poirier got knocked the fuck out, but you'll never see me bitching unless he was really fucked out of the win.

Agreed but snowflakes and sonnen had a video. I am sick of guys napping in a fight boring fans and morons think it deserves a W. It doesn't warrant excitement not a W. It's stalling. Rd 1 he deserves credit but getting outstruck from off your back by a green Alex is not a good look.

Case and point, gsp took down Bisping but bisping cut him open with elbows and outstruck him. Granted gsp won buy.
 
Adesanya was probably a minute away from getting GnP'd into a TKO and Pereira won a (slightly controversial) decision. Now it could be argued that Jan is diminished since the Adesanya fight, but I don't buy it. The storyline is already written. Pereira beats Jiri for the belt, then Adesanya moves up after beating Strickland to face him to finish their fight series once and for all.

Outstruck* then outgrappled* while taking heavy abuse from the bottom to end the match.

Fixed that for you, Rogan.
