Ended up shouting him and his bro a fat joint 😂

Alex and Izzy relationship is strange they are sworn enemies but wanna see the very best for one another all while being arguably top 2 in their division
They never really necessarily hated eachother. It's really the fan bases that couldn't stand eachother but izzy and Alex more so have a rivalry. Like a goku/vegeta thing going on
that cringy persona you mention is all for show to promote the fights coz like he says he has a soft side to him and a big heart fighters like that need to project an almost caricature of them as a hard no fucks given fighter mainly to get in the correct headspace to beat up another human for 25 mins ...this interview shows his true self and to me hes a great human being a normal guy who has dedicated his life to MMA and just happened to become one of the GOATS, plus now hes older lost a couple fights and not the champ with a target on his back he can relax more emotionally and really enjoy life and fighting with zero pressure and BS
Ur easily fooled. This is the same guy that wins and tweets for months after about his win. He cares so much about what people think. He wouldn't be happy
Honestly everyone clowns Izzy for the 3 losses. But all of Izzy and Alex’s fights have been fine margins and could have went either way every single time. 2 terrific fighters
Israels Ufc run was so damn good.. That man can fight. Fought often and fought up in rank. The feelings that were drawn out of me when he finally beat Alex .. Can not be replicated!! Thank you for all the great nights
I love how open he is about his fights with Alex and you can tell he genuinely is glad Alex is a part of his career. They both have amplified each other so much through rivalry.
The beauty of the story is that Izzy changed Poatan’s life by saying in that famous interview “he’s sitting in some pub somewhere saying he beat that guy” to now Izzy being the one saying he once beat that guy.
You know what's pushing most of the hate. It's not his person, because none of us personally know him and 9 of 10 of us who met him sees he's great or doesn't suck personality-wise.

@ 1:42:09 the way Izzy can criticize and make fun of himself makes him so much more relatable and likeable!! He just seems like a solid, cool dude to hang out with.... and it seems like if ur his homie then he's got ur back no matter what. Much resepct ✌️
Respect to a legend in the game , even only having a few amateur fights in my life I can only imagine how his life was and mind is strong after 14 years 100s of fights and hours upon hours of training much respect
Izzy is that guy. Way too much hate for this legend. He was the one who really brought me into the ufc after I watched his first fight against Whittaker for the belt.
It's his fault, for all the things people make fun of him for I first thought "That's so ridiculous it can't be true", and it was all true. Even destiny likes to make fun of him, in his interview talking about Alex, he says that Alex was going to be at a bar saying "I beat that guy one time" and years later, in the Might Mouse podcast, which is a bar setting, he came to the realization that the very fate he wished for Alex came true for him.
@@subaruuuu1nah, you’re taking it personally. He’s the one who should take it personally. Alex beat him twice(arguably once) in kickboxing and was the first and only to knock him out. Then he chased Izzy to mma and knocked him out in the biggest arena in the world. Most people would be salty af
HAHAHHAHAHAH HE RAPES DOGS HAHAHAHAHHAHA SO FUNNY GUYS!!!!! like my comment i said what everyone says HAHHAHAHAH fuckin clown boy you MMA fans are horrible now grew up with social media and youre so weak minded im not even gonna say why
My favorite UFC fighter of all time. One of the biggest superstars and best strikers MMA has ever seen. Anderson Silva is a legend but this is my middleweight 🐐 Appreciate you Stylebender! Get one last W under your belt and sail into the sunset champ 🤙🏼
The hate this man gets despite his achievements is weird. I get his personality isn’t for everyone but he ran through one of the toughest divisions and beat a dominator in Poatan to regain his belt. Really thought he’d handle Du Plessis but he’s still young enough to make a comeback
@@auga3896 i'd say that's the most intense rivalry for sure. But i just feel like this is/was a healthier rivalry for the fans plus they fought a few times. Khabib and Conor rivalry was just chaotic and crazy as hell, not much respect between them where as Izzy and Alex did.
@@larryholstein7925well Khabib and Connor have real beef with each making their rivalry more chaotic. Izzy and Alex are rivals because of their skill level but they don’t have any real issues with each other
@@Leonardo-oq2qf true, can't go wrong with either. but yeah you hit the nail on the head. Definitely a difference in the type of rivalry but both were incredible.
@@kells2305 He isn't wrong though. Dog molester went to sleep. Alex' son mocked him. So when Izzy KO'd Alex, he mocked Alex' son back like a petty dog molester he is.
I didn’t really like Izzy that much before this interview but I’ve got some love and absolute respect for him as a human after this one. He’s a great fighter and a great human and I love that. He’s not soft at all. He’s a beast. Good luck in your next one Izzy! 💯
This is complete bullshit this interview of him playing a facade shouldn’t change anyone’s mind. He’s still a race baiting, dog fucker, China sympathizer sellout.
He has always been likeable until you get him trying to promote a fight and being cringe. Kape roasting him, his frozen line Elsa line, crying vs DDP etc make him hard to root for in the fight.
And it's only more insufferable coming from Joe. Joe doesn't have the struggles of the average mma fan spending 80 a ppv and having to spend 400+ if they wanna go to an event. But because "it's not a real fight if someone tells you to get up" Yeah Joe, it's a sport.
He seems happy! Paving the way for kiwis. He is truly a great man! We have had a similiar life path coming from Africa and going to a small town in NZ. Just his success exponentially dwarfs mine haha!
Didn't like Israel when he first came out a bit cocky for my tastes but after watching his first episode on JRE and seen his human side, completely adore him and became a massive fan. Joe your episodes really bring out the real person thank you for your talent in getting people to open up so freely. This was another amazing episode. 👏 ❤
Izzy is such a cool dude, his rivalry..... or more accurately his "frienemy" relationship with Poatan makes me like and resepct both of them so much more! Real recognize real and they're 2 of the realest, baddest dudes in the fight game. I wish Alex spoke English so he could do a JRE ep too, or even better wouod be an ep with them on together! ✌️
"I couldn't beat some nerd in pajamas." To be fair, Izzy is one of the few striking purists who made it to the top without a robust grappling background. That hole in his game wasn't really exposed until he fought Jan, largely because of the size discrepancy. "If you think I'm g*y, bring your mother around, bring your sister around." LMAO!
As supposedly one of the most talented and skilled strikers in the history of the UFC, he gave us years of leg kicking opponents, and the most limited arsenal in all of MMA... Ur delusional... This guy sucks...
Just look into it yourself. Alex and his team actually do rituals before every fight and believe their ancestors become jaguars in death and give him special powers.. its all true

Retiring is the only smart move. He's 35 years old. Statistically it's over.

hit and run, I will never miss that boring style
@@cristi-RO-cristiyou’re such an idiot
shame because if he had beaten ddp he could have been top 6 range all time
yeah ... all good, but you (and many others) seem to have forgotten that he got his ass handed to him by a 'white boy' ....
@@cristi-RO-cristiknocked pereira out cold brutally in their last fight, call that running 😂.
I don't care what anyone says, I've always liked Izzy and always will. He seems like a great guy.
me too bro,. I always loved his run in the UFC. from beginning to capturing the gold, to defending
@@johnnyc0811 you saw him play with his dog penis and your still riding his whats that say about yall forget izzy yall sad men
Facts tho been a fan of his for years now, he's actually my favorite fighter 💪🏽
He jerked his dog off there is video proof 💀
I loved when he screamed the Nword in DDP's face, it was so neat.
mma guru is about to make a 30 minute reaction to this podcast 😂
izzy could blink 3 times to fast guru would do a breakdown how it was “zesty” how he blinked faster than normal. thats sum shi he’d post unironically
@profvenlenn isn't it obvious that MMA Guru is super gay? Dudes getting a bit too excited by gay stuff and sexual jokes.
Who cares what that neckbeard thinks. Casuals love the casual opinions. All he does is dis fighters.
And it will be better
@@lilniggapipp443awh how cute izzys ghey lover to the rescue 😂😂 Arent u jealous of his dog nancy
Good interview Joe rogan and thank you Israel for sharing your journey bro💪🇳🇬
Idk how people hate Izzy.. really one of the most open minded sports athletes today
You know what's pushing most of the hate. It's not his person, because none of us personally know him and 9 of 10 of us who met him sees he's great or doesn't suck personality-wise.
@@ATACXGYMCAPOEIRA so you’re saying the hate is because he’s not a good fighter?
MMA fans aren’t open minded 😂that’s why
It’s simple. I see Rogan, I see fighters, I click 🤷🏾♂️
original.

Justifying the fact you’re even watching this. I feel you bro. Dog whisperer lmfao
@@MajorMumwett remedial 🤷🏾♂️
@@teddyevans2869 you’re a child. Carry on
Really looking forward to this one. Thanks Joe and Izzy
Respect the way Izzy represents martial arts without the tough guy persona and shows depth and self awareness!
Izzy is fucking amazing. the haters will miss him once hes gone. RESPECT GOAT
I 💩 on your idols
It's hilarious they'll click this video just to comment hate 😂 hard to imagine being that much of a loser
Izzy needs to be casted as the new black panther
No.

Recap by Bumpups ✏️
@ 1:42:09 the way Izzy can criticize and make fun of himself makes him so much more relatable and likeable!! He just seems like a solid, cool dude to hang out with.... and it seems like if ur his homie then he's got ur back no matter what. Much resepct ✌️
Respect to a legend in the game , even only having a few amateur fights in my life I can only imagine how his life was and mind is strong after 14 years 100s of fights and hours upon hours of training much respect
Kia Ora Israel, we miss you back in NZ❤️ Awesome podcast! You rock Joe💜
Izzy is such a legit dude! Great interview fellas
Izzy is that guy. Way too much hate for this legend. He was the one who really brought me into the ufc after I watched his first fight against Whittaker for the belt.
It’s crazy… maybe cause his name Israel but the hate is wild… lots of jealous weak dudes in the comments
It's his fault, for all the things people make fun of him for I first thought "That's so ridiculous it can't be true", and it was all true. Even destiny likes to make fun of him, in his interview talking about Alex, he says that Alex was going to be at a bar saying "I beat that guy one time" and years later, in the Might Mouse podcast, which is a bar setting, he came to the realization that the very fate he wished for Alex came true for him.
@@subaruuuu1nah, you’re taking it personally. He’s the one who should take it personally. Alex beat him twice(arguably once) in kickboxing and was the first and only to knock him out. Then he chased Izzy to mma and knocked him out in the biggest arena in the world. Most people would be salty af
its the fight game, when he is in 'game' mode for the fight he can come off as a big twat! but the mans a legend!
And his last...
Hulle weet nie wat ons weet nie😮🇿🇦
This guy is so refreshing. His wisdom is so mature
Marshall wanted to stay home for this one🗿
😂😂😂
Broooo
No “Willy time” for him!
HAHAHHAHAHAH HE RAPES DOGS HAHAHAHAHHAHA SO FUNNY GUYS!!!!! like my comment i said what everyone says HAHHAHAHAH fuckin clown boy you MMA fans are horrible now grew up with social media and youre so weak minded im not even gonna say why
bahhahahahha
Yes!! Finally the man! Watching from NEW ZEALAND!!
Israel is the only gentleman I'll watch a fight companion of. Simply because of his character
This is my new favorite fighter, not only for his skills but for ability to communicate and his take on the world. Bad ass
My favorite UFC fighter of all time. One of the biggest superstars and best strikers MMA has ever seen. Anderson Silva is a legend but this is my middleweight 🐐 Appreciate you Stylebender! Get one last W under your belt and sail into the sunset champ 🤙🏼
So pumped for this!!!
The hate this man gets despite his achievements is weird. I get his personality isn’t for everyone but he ran through one of the toughest divisions and beat a dominator in Poatan to regain his belt. Really thought he’d handle Du Plessis but he’s still young enough to make a comeback
He get hate because he records himself abusing his animals for his confirmed kink on film
Take a shot every time Izzy says "but uh.. YEAH"
It's a kiwi thing like " ay" lol kina like Canadians
@@shinobi7184 as a kiwi i confirm this along with 'yeah nah' and 'nah yeah'
Loved every second of this conversation. Deep, interesting topics and Izzy's maturity is admirable...🔥🔥🔥
Izzy! The man is back on Jre
Great interview. Shoutout Engage! They make some of our merch; great quality!
✊
Izzy is one of few well spoken fighters that can actually speak on a divergent range of subjects
I feel like Pereira and Izzy's rivalry is our generations Ali/Frazier for the UFC, grateful to have witnessed it.
I would say it was Conor/Khabib because the majority of fight fans don't know Pereira.
@@auga3896 i'd say that's the most intense rivalry for sure. But i just feel like this is/was a healthier rivalry for the fans plus they fought a few times. Khabib and Conor rivalry was just chaotic and crazy as hell, not much respect between them where as Izzy and Alex did.
@@larryholstein7925well Khabib and Connor have real beef with each making their rivalry more chaotic. Izzy and Alex are rivals because of their skill level but they don’t have any real issues with each other
@@Leonardo-oq2qf true, can't go wrong with either. but yeah you hit the nail on the head. Definitely a difference in the type of rivalry but both were incredible.
Izzy will never face Alex again. He's a coward that landed a punch and Alex crumbled because of a bad weight cut. He will never face him again.
Izzy is the only fighter that was able to eat all of Alex’s best shots without getting KO’d. Dude a beast. Great chin.
Except for the time he went to sleep in kickboxing 😂
@@shialeboof3504 you got to be like 13 years old
@@kells2305 He isn't wrong though. Dog molester went to sleep. Alex' son mocked him. So when Izzy KO'd Alex, he mocked Alex' son back like a petty dog molester he is.
@@shialeboof3504if anyone gets hit with that, they’re going down. Maybe GGG wouldn’t
copy paste
I will always tune in for Izzy. He is a entertainer and still has some of the best highlights of the sport.
He did it all.
I didn’t really like Izzy that much before this interview but I’ve got some love and absolute respect for him as a human after this one. He’s a great fighter and a great human and I love that. He’s not soft at all. He’s a beast. Good luck in your next one Izzy! 💯
This is complete bullshit this interview of him playing a facade shouldn’t change anyone’s mind. He’s still a race baiting, dog fucker, China sympathizer sellout.
You only realized now? Too late....stay on that hate bandwagon.
He has always been likeable until you get him trying to promote a fight and being cringe. Kape roasting him, his frozen line Elsa line, crying vs DDP etc make him hard to root for in the fight.
@@jakemiller270he's only human
@pazo321 too late? Lol so you're mad he is a fan of Izzy now?? Lol bizarre logic
Hats off - The best to do it in the Middleweight Division! Thank You Izzy
My opinion of Izzy changed after watching this conversation. He is intelligent with good character and a one of the best in the game. I'm a fan
Rogan every 3rd episode “ there should be no stand ups” “ if you end the round on the ground you start on the ground”
Every 3? More like every one. And don’t forget him bitching about the 2020 situation for like 30 mins
@supersaiyan4rambo lol yeah bro the same rants are getting annoying
And it's only more insufferable coming from Joe. Joe doesn't have the struggles of the average mma fan spending 80 a ppv and having to spend 400+ if they wanna go to an event. But because "it's not a real fight if someone tells you to get up" Yeah Joe, it's a sport.
Feels good to see Izzy again
He seems happy! Paving the way for kiwis. He is truly a great man! We have had a similiar life path coming from Africa and going to a small town in NZ. Just his success exponentially dwarfs mine haha!
Adesanya was always a great fighter in kickboxing and MMA and deserves so much more respect
Literally doesn’t, a lot of his wins were bs like Romero for example, now he was just given a title shot after losing to Sean… he gets to much respect

Didn't like Israel when he first came out a bit cocky for my tastes but after watching his first episode on JRE and seen his human side, completely adore him and became a massive fan. Joe your episodes really bring out the real person thank you for your talent in getting people to open up so freely. This was another amazing episode. 👏 ❤
The conversation was great, izzy was entertaining as always!
Izzy is such a cool dude, his rivalry..... or more accurately his "frienemy" relationship with Poatan makes me like and resepct both of them so much more! Real recognize real and they're 2 of the realest, baddest dudes in the fight game. I wish Alex spoke English so he could do a JRE ep too, or even better wouod be an ep with them on together! ✌️
Grateful for the Izzy / Alex rivalry !!!! The UFC needs more !
"I couldn't beat some nerd in pajamas." To be fair, Izzy is one of the few striking purists who made it to the top without a robust grappling background. That hole in his game wasn't really exposed until he fought Jan, largely because of the size discrepancy.
"If you think I'm g*y, bring your mother around, bring your sister around." LMAO!
Adesanya is a legend great memories. Too many people care about his antics or past. Worry about your own past.. his legacy is cemented.
His legacy is made up of his antics and past….
Well yeah, he made excuses for his past. It's not like he apologized, moved on and grew.
@@Under-Kaoz wrong. Idiot
@@ryan109 you sound like you need to do something great in your life. Hope you achieve it and don't go around hating on others for you own validity.
@@kells2305this is what I mean but hopefully these guys do.
Izzy on JRE is huge! Phenomenal episode! Izzy is such a cool dude, love his chill vibe. 😊
My Izzy Engage shirt is easily my favorite shirt, might cop the Kai and Hooker ones too
Nothing but respect, gave us years of beautiful fights.
As supposedly one of the most talented and skilled strikers in the history of the UFC, he gave us years of leg kicking opponents, and the most limited arsenal in all of MMA... Ur delusional... This guy sucks...
So you respect 9/11 jokes
I'm glad Izzy's fights cured your insomnia ❤
@@raymondaloni2309 Thanks Homie!
Add to that, watching him eat his words and some dog stuff on the side... What else can you ask from him?
Was waiting on this one
Cool story bro! Tell us more!
I wish Joe asked Izzy to elaborate more on the Juju stuff.
Izzy was pumped to talk about it, Joe should've asked more about it.
Do you want to pledge your soul to da devil ?
Say with me :
"Voo Yay Voo Yay "
"Boo Yay Boo Yay"
@@akeshsnow3258 Juju Magic
Joe doesn’t really seem to ever delve into those lanes of chat with his guests
sunny ade juju music, what an album. take the trip
Just look into it yourself. Alex and his team actually do rituals before every fight and believe their ancestors become jaguars in death and give him special powers.. its all true
Joe’s happy place. Makes sense that he’s such a good comedian 🙌💪
Saving to listen to this when I’m back from Vegas. LOL
Thanks Joe, I was having a Ruff day
Keep your head up bud
I heard the best medicine for sadness is honey espically if it came from a pooh makes you wagging
Me too then i started to drink heavily and things see bettee
Feel better young man
Ruff? As in woof. Went over people's heads that one
Love how you boys get along, absolute legends.
Im impressed… Izzy keeping up with Rogan like a G…… nuff respect
Keeping up in what way?

2:01:07 Izzy talks about Navajo Stirling
When Izzy won against alex I was in my library.
When he knocked Alex that was my craziest mma moment.
I was literally in tears..
actually a genuinely funny pod cast
They way style bender explains how it took him four try’s .. straight up me in darks soul games lol
When the boss is one hit away from dying, and then you end up dying instead 😂
This is one of those videos that i like before i have even gotten through the opening ad
Most skilled stand up fighter in UFC, not the strongest. But timing, speed, accuracy, distance... Noone comes close
I have been a bit of an Izzy hater but respect to him. This won me over
I miss this version of JRE. Just a great convo
Can you bring Alex jones Eddie bravo and Joey Diaz for an episode
Moicano needs to be on the pod next !!
