I must mention: Zhang took a lot of inspiration from Saenchai in the fight. She was swinging hips back and forth and leaning from high kicks here and there. That really shows how coachable she is, cause I believe she wasn't training with him for much time
Robert Whittaker died so Yoel Romero could whine about Izzy not engaging, in a fight in which he spent 24 minutes waving his hands menacingly. Hold me, jack, I'm sad.
@@vipa8403 on my area of the internet (Whittaker fanboys) people are only blaming izzy. I will say, that i think izzy was always trying to find a way to engage but failing, where as Romero was just "i will only engage when you engage me" until the last round. Nobody is to blame really its just styles and shit. However Romero was the one who threw the bigger hissy fit.
@@kelilemoore1998 saying there were significant strikes in this fight is a bit of an overstatement, neither was in real trouble at any point. They are both to blame tbh, izzy was trying to engage but failing midway through and yoel was only engaging when izzy engaged, which was never lmao
Too bad it's not 5 rds so we can see how that fight really plays out. 3 rds favors Rose, but this is good for the ufc. They want her to win to set up Weilei vs Rose.
Nicely wrapped up. This weekend was triumphantly dominated by the Tony Ferguson Khabib Nurmegomedov conference. The press were absolutely terrible apart from the Schmo making his refreshing appearance. Thank God I get BT Sports 4k with my TV package and I get these fights for free in a PPV standpoint.
I'm so impressed that JJ continued after that straght right on the schnoz. Most fighters would accept that they'd come to the end of their toughness after all that and then the nose getting smashed- a bit like the last body shot from Barbosa against Dan Hooker, it was just one too many. Romero was a total hypocrite at the end- trying to play the man of the people bollocks after wasting another title shot (which was obviously undeserved in the first place) puting blame on Adesanya after literally standing still for 2 minutes. All his conspicuous piety and false modesty of the religious stuff is pretty irritating (so humble to believe some magic man chose you to be special!) but I thought his behaviour in this fight and afterwards was really disapppointing and pretty pathetic to be honest. He was annoyed that Adesanya didn't fight the way he wanted him to fight? Adesanya talked a bit much before the fight- saying he would knock him out etc.- which made things look worse - but the idea he should've run straight into Romero is ridiculous.
@@michaelpoon4170 Definitely didn't outclass him for 5 rounds but I thought Adesanya won it- though he wasn't blameless either. I just don't understand Romero's thinking- I do think his interview was pathetic and stemmed from embarrassment that he'd just wasted likely his last title shot.but it was still weird. Though as has been pointed out by some others (lke Hardy) this is not new for Romero, he always tries to get away with doing as little as possible.
Adesanya has had a relatively soft run for a title holder. Win against Silva who was past it. Interim Belt from Gastelum who is not a real contender, rusty Whittaker after a 2 year lay off, Romero who is past it and who didn't fight. He has a very shaky claim to the belt. Costa is going to shock the cringe out of him. Im sick of hearing his fanboys making excuses for him.
The joanna zhang fight confirms straw weight as my favourite female division by a mile. When people say that the female divisions don't have as much talent as the mens, I do have to ask, which male divisions could produce a fight like that right now? I think we can say most could do it, but light heavyweight and heavyweight probably couldn't, and that everything above 155 hasn't produced a fight like that for a while, unless my memory is failing me.
@@justhereforfun100 lawler condit was a long time ago. Same with lawler Rory. Gastelum Izzy was nowhere near as competitive as this imo. I'll give you usman-covington tho, great fight. Romero-Costa also springs to mind but that was far closer to a straight brawl rather than seeing changes in strategy and approach. Romero- Whitaker 2 is another that I'd have to say had all the elements of a great fight.
It took years for WMMA to have a fight like that. We're not going to ignore the fact that there is only 1 decent women's division. Apart from 115, there is nothing lol Nunes and Shevchenko be damned.
Mostly when it comes to high level judo, you end up seeing the ko uchi gari which is just a variation of the inside trip using the outside of the lead foot to sweep out the inside of the opponent's rear once you shift them to a parallel stance
Very stupid for Romero to keep that do nothing style he has. It was most likely his last shot at the title and he acted like it was nothing. I hate it.
San Pedro doesn't have a high crime rate, but that doesn't mean it isn't a difficult area to grow up in. High crime rates are typically seen in areas that are highly populated/dense. Also, understand that LA isn't segregated into "nice parts" and "bad parts" with barriers or anything. You could be in a "nice area" and walk two blocks and suddenly be in the hood.
The problem with Romero is he is , and do not take this the wrong way, a fucking savage animal, at the chemical and unconscious visual level. His hard ware is top shelf in terms of vision and neuro-muscular firing speed, but his ability to read and change rhythm, vector and rate of acceleration is a problem for an opponent looking for a clean striking exchange. Costa was a bit different in that he was another Tonka truck of about the same proportions, with as much pop coming back. Jucy boi tois.
To offer a statsy reason for no-gi tournaments being won by more gi players than no-gi purists, just imagine how many people practice BJJ in the world and how many of those are no-gi only players; statistically you should expect no-gi tourneys to be won be people that practice in the gi, because there are just so many more people who train BJJ in the gi. I imagine there are 100 :1 traditional BJJ schools : no-gi only schools. If it were 50 : 50, I would expect there to be few no-gi tourneys won by people that split their time with the gi and without.
35:05 owns a lot of books but is able to check that he doesn't own a single book on a specific topic in a fraction of a second? Either he doesn't own that many of they're incredibly well organized. I find both of those ideas highly suspect.
Did I watch the wrong fight twice? What did he do for the first 90 seconds? If you say anything other than statue impression, I watched the wrong fight again.
The takedowns were not counted though, if i'm not mistaken. But regarding the striking: Israel recovered from any shot that Yoel has landed, after the fight he barely had a scratch on him, whereas Romero's leg looked terrible. More importantly, Romero was visibly hurt badly whenever Adesanya drove his shin into Romero's thigh. Not saying that the fight wasn't extremely frustrating though.
Apparently David Lynch called Joanna about starring in the sequel of his movie The Elephant Man. The movie would be titled The Elephant Man's Daughter.
Can't understand how people can be mad at Adesanya. Romero has had 3 title fights and this time he absolutly looked like he coulnd't care less. If you're the contender you have the beat the champion and didnt do that. Also did anyone else noticed that he had took his gloves off in the octagon?
Pedro Santo he beat him. I think it’s fucked up that if u don’t knock out a champion. Most of the time it goes to the champion. Even if u did more. Yoel IMO won the fight. 1,2,5 did more than Izzy. Landed the more significant and damaging strikes. Flurried a couple times. And had take downs. Now Izzy did leg kicks. A couple counters and teeps. Izzy was hurt twice and also ran away from Romero a couple I times. He was scared for his life. Yoel ain’t trying to tire himself out. And Izzy isn’t trying to get knocked out. It was a chess match.

What a fight between two complete human beings Zhang and Joanna. They could both beat Priscila Cachoeria on an empty stomach.
Same as most humans.
but Priscila is KO artist now.
@bmcgmusic if she hadn't lost she would have knocked them all out mate
I must mention: Zhang took a lot of inspiration from Saenchai in the fight. She was swinging hips back and forth and leaning from high kicks here and there. That really shows how coachable she is, cause I believe she wasn't training with him for much time
I noticed this too, even the way she would keep catching joanna's leg kicks

In a weird way this fight perfectly sets up the Adesanya Costa fight.Romero should fight Gastelum next
Its the kayfabe, wwe style

The main event was a tactical-chessmatch of a fight that is only disliked by mma casuals sike naw the fight was really boring
Lol I was gonna get pissed 😂
Hate to do it, but a cash and bling and hijab crowd seemed interested in an Abrhamic finish.
As careful and tactical as Lewis/Ngannou

I loved the main event how can you not love a couple of drunk guys sparring in the garden at 6 in the morning
There are more swings in the garden fight you allude to.
