Incredible fight and fighter. It is hard to believe how effective his defense and dodge was. It is not hard to win fighters with more range than you, like Spider, Adesanya and Jones. He not only trained but studied Adesanya a lot. None of his tricks worked and he countered them perfectly.
I like when DC said “Sean has to interrupt Izzy before he settles in and flows too much” and yet Sean was the one in a flow state from opening to ending bell

Patience, accuracy, defense, offense, stamina, Sean is an all rounder. This is the first time I watched his fight, I've been seeing Adesanya in youtube but not his fights, didn't know he was a champ till now and now there's a new champ. (Never watched middle weight division) I love how Sean just stalks Izzy and waited patiently for a counter and whenever he throws those punches, it is as precise as it could be. It's like I'm watching a boxer who joined ufc just to see how a boxer fare off with an mma fighter. Sean never used flashy moves, he sticks by the book, 1-2 then guards up.
Adesanya didn't have good close range boxing in this one. The majority of wins come from him picking his shots from distance. Sean stayed close and didn't let him set anything up and kept him claustrophobic seizing every opening and never letting Izzy establish his range his rhythm or any sense of comfort.
@@walmartian422also completely negated Adesanya’s leg kick game which is how he wins most of his fights. Stays at range, beats up the leg, and circles around the cage. Strickland from then 1st round to the 5th was insanely good at checking or crowding adesanyas leg kicks, which was a huge reason he won
32:59 i dont like strickland at all, but the way he walked izzy down and putting his hands up in the air and taunting him while the crowd is errupting with cheers in the last 20 seconds of the fight is one of my favorite moments ever
@@g29000actually izzy never was anything they said he was . Ufc record has less than 20 fights and 4 losses already . Mostly decision wins . Couldn’t even finish granpa silva
I remember watching it live by myself. I screamed so hard when Strickland dropped him, my mom got super mad at me for waking her up. I hadn't been that excited in a while.
@@kingkamfa6257that’s true bro, but some people in the world use alcohol to have a good time, maybe because trauma or mental health issues they go through, I would have a good night getting drunk with friends and watching this and also watching this with friends sober, but each to their own bro. Don’t judge. Good on you though for having the mentality you have ✌🏻
@@CM-gi5xrbro fuck that I love alcohol it makes me happy and I don’t drink often so each to their own and in my case alcohol is an enhancer if I’m feeling good.
I’m from Australia. You have no idea how many Aussies were supporting Sean. He’s a relatable guy to us who dosent mince his words. He’s just a real dude. No ego to the guy and showed our country love meanwhile Izzy has that thing about him where he carries himself like a douche who thinks his shit don’t stink.

Romans 10:9 (New Testament, Epistle to the Romans, chapter 10, verse 9): "If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." John 3:3 (New Testament, Gospel of John, chapter 3, verse 3): "Jesus replied, 'Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.'" John 14:6 (New Testament, Gospel of John, chapter 14, verse 6): "Jesus answered, 'I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'"
Literally got my whole friend group together to watch this fight and we all wanted Sean to win. One of the greatest upset masterclasses in UFC history.
This fight in particular is why I think commentators shouldn't be used in UFC. They all did their best to protect Adesanya instead of being unbiased and saying what really was happening. Sean Strickland picked apart the "best middleweight kickboxer in the world" simply by not letting him run away from the fight.
I’ll tell u what, DC was unbearable tryna convince ppl it was 2-2 in the fifth 😂 But Laura Sanko held it down and literally said idk how you can tell me it’s not 3-1 Strickland lmao she must have not gotten the memo of protecting Adesanya in commentary
True got izzy out his game but looked like izzy had some personal issues MAYBE tho but izzy don't run much I think izzy was hurt before the fight or just couldn't figure out Sean
THE PEOPLE'S CHAMP! Dropped him and outclassed him for 5 rounds with elite defence, checked all the kicks and attacked very smart. AMAZING PERFORMANCE! SEAN FOR PRESIDENT! 💯 💪👏
Adesanya didnt know where his corner was after the first round...😂😂😂 His ego looked hurt more then his body 😂😂 strickland literally made him look so bad...he wont easily return back from this...
Love how the female announcer continues to carry water for Izzy. “Izzy is really good at taking multiple punches to the face, that’s the strategy on his part and it works.”
Sean is so generous , He prefers to give than to receive but izzy on the other hand just doing the opposite, He just want to receice all of them with his handsome face. 😅😅😅
Dude is just a straight up boxer. Its hilarious. I love his style. I sort of wonder why he did not go to boxing? Is it harder to break in? Less money and not as popular? Or does he like the more raw and intimate style of UFC like the padded hands instead of gloves?
From the very start you could see how smothering sean's style was to izzy's strategy. Izzy might not have done his homework as well as he thought, but sean sure did.
I'm just getting back into UFC so I'm going through and watching a lot of these fights over the last 2 years (it's been fun) and that's the first thing that strikes me about this. I don't know much about both fighters, but you can tell Izzy is trying to bait Sean and Sean just doesn't bite. It seems like the counter for Strickland is to push Strickland onto his heels and make him move more than he's comfortable doing. Strickland is just stalking him and I'm actually really surprised Izzy, at least through round 4 right now, didn't even try to really Strickland down. Does Strickland have a better ground game than Izzy?
10:43 nah cuz this little tappy tap back and forth by izzy and sean here on the close up watch sean’s reactions, truly jokes aside fucking wild bruh, he was absolutely dialed in the whole fight
For everyone’s information. If ur a fighter and your opponent is constantly lifting their leg. Throw the hardest 1-2 combo ever. Don’t ask why just thank me later.
People shit on Stricklands style for being boring. When I watch his style, it doesn't seem boring to me it looks calculating. Don't love his personality, but I do not fault the style at all.
100% agree. I like that it's low energy as well. It's honestly a smart style when you don't have great knockout power. It's a war of attrition essentially and I can respect that since it takes a lot of discipline to pull that off.
@Jkev24 dude exactly. I get it's not as fun to watch like Chimaev but I love watching all styles and Sean has proven his style is one of the most sound in his weight class.
@@american_document2626 to me in sports my favorite thing to see is a clash of styles. Sure, it's sometimes fun to see guys with the same style go at it to see who the real master is (though that can be kind of boring with two BJJ guys, let's just call it what it is, heavy grappling matches is less exciting to watch because there's a lot of resting and just tiring each other out, it's not constant movement to get a better position), but I think it's more fun to see two guys finding a way to be dominant through two different paths and then those paths collide. It adds that extra narrative of not only who is the better fighter, but who has the better style. It's why mma at the start was so chaotic and fun. You had guys that weren't really well rounded and instead were really just masters of one discipline (like Joyce Grace) going at each other. Was crazy fun seeing Joyce submitting guys that were like striking experts and twice his size. At the end of the day, I appreciate the meta game in all sports. It gets boring when one style clearly rises to the top. While basketball is my favorite sport and three point revolution was fun at first, it's honestly getting a bit old now that every team is trying to do the same thing. I miss teams having different identities and trying to impose their style on the game. Now it's just largely a 3pt contest with a couple different wrinkles from team to team. They honestly could fix the issue by making 2pters worth 3pts and 3pters worth 4 points. It would make a shot inside the arch worth 75% of one outside the arch (currently it's worth 66.66%). This would change the meta of the game more where unless you're a truly elite deep range team, it makes more sense to score inside.
I always love learning about this game. Can someone tell me what they mean by “optics?”. Looking for answers from people who actually know what they’re talkin about please, thx.
Did Izzy just not show up for this fight or is Sean’s style just the perfect counter for him? Even re watching this again it blows my mind what happened lol
