Yoo. Guy. I doo the same work as Izzy. Look at the floor. Mental. Dknt see rhe floor. Bounce rhe ball... To ur face... move and dodge. . Same izzy work.
Can’t wait for the UFC Countdown to get the full story behind Pereira. The stuff he has been putting out with archery and now the hoverboard, he’s got my interest!
Alex has been steadily giving us more and more pieces of theatre and it's genius. It really is just one of those things. The boys in the back are responding and we'll get a dust up out of this.
@@micahjohnson138 Romero wasn’t running tbh he was more like not engaging staying still and presenting a danger zone if you come in here I’ll crack yo ass type of strategy but Izzy was like umm 🤔 if you stay there I’ll just kick your legs and use my jab I’m taller n longer but also weight like 25 pounds less and don’t have nearly as much power! Robert on the other hand didn’t want to get knocked out again he improved his timing and patience and mixed in take downs you can’t run away from someone you take down ppl even say Rob won that fight I don’t lol 😂 he lost imo 3-2
Would love to hear your perspective on what Izzy is going through mentally. Their last fight he was dominating and got caught just like you with Anderson. What were the mental challenges going into the rematch ?
He wasn't dominating he was point fighting and got wrecked. What's going through his head is I can't point fight this guy becuse he can catch me and if he does imagine get the dirt nap.
@@ernieb820 If you're winning clearly on points then you're dominating. I do agree though that him dominating doesn't matter much if you get knocked out clean.
I didn’t see the adasanya video, but I did see the Alex on hoverboard video and I had the same thought, how athletic and like I almost find it hard to believe that was the first time he did it because how smooth it all was
I can and have done it (tried it right after me and my buds saw the video) If you have sparred and you've been on an hoverboard you can do both with little practice
Didn't Chael just make a video about Bo yesterday saying how fighters don't get better and you couldn't give him one example of it and then today he comes and brings us the example thanks Chael!
I know this is off topic but I just rewatched Charles VS Justin and HOLY shit son!!!!! Charles is a BAMF!!!! I don’t remember that match not even lasting a full round!!!! This fight coming up just got a WHOLE lot more interesting to me. And I know Chael has been telling us this forever now. But holy shit hims, hers, its, and theys!!!! This fight is going to be one for the books!!!! P.S I love the hover board story Chael!!! I also agree that takes mad skills to do that. I seen a meme that said “I hope Pereira knocks Izzy out, retires, and says I just wanted to knock him out one last time!! I don’t even like MMA!!!!” 😂😂😂😂 such a great meme!!!! But also I would laugh so damn hard if that happened!!!! Oh and I really hope Pereira comes out doing is walk on a hover board!!!!!😂😂😂
I honestly think people just hating on IZZY ever since the guy been to the UFC he fought everyone the put in front of him even rematch them, he never turned down a fight, miss weight, pull out or fail any drugs test, he never back down on any challenge, what else we want from a guy like IZZY he been taking every fight never duck anyone all way call out whoever is line next at his octagon post interview, the great Anderson silva didn't do that, he fail a drugs test and he's also had a few boring performances so let appreciates IZZY how we should ,BTW I been watching the kickboxing fight with with Alex over and over IZZY got rub the first one and the second one he got caught and that just reminding me of USMAN 🆚 LEON Last fight get caught on the fight he was winning just like CHAEL 🆚 SILVA first fight so I don't see how IZZY going to make the same mistakes, and watching those two ALEX is powerful and IZZY is better kickboxer
@@mrspiff6955 I think the big issue with people is they worry so much about fighters personal life like they want to take them home with,I'm only a fan of fighters inside the octagon IZZY, CHARLES, ALEX VOLKSWAGEN are the most active champions in the UFC,USMAN was also one of them.
@@francescodiamondmacelini4935 You are the first person to say Izzy is the better kickboxer. Others usually favour Alex because of his 2 division championship win in Glory. Kudos!
You must watch the whole of both fights. Yes I think Izzy is the better striker but Pierra has the power and really good striking. If Izzy has truly been getting better in the practice room, he should within the first five minutes put Pierra on his back if possible. But make Pierra think about the takedown, then be crafty like Izzy usually is. Ok if the fight ends in the first 2 rounds Pierra wins. Anything past 10 minutes Izzy wins. You asked Chael, that’s my take. Good stuff as usual big guy
To be more elusive and use more faints does not makes you a better striker. Izzy would never be Glory Champ with Alex Pereira, Simon Marcus and Jason WIlnis on the game. Alex is a much better and proved striker.
@@capoeiraviva I think that’s hard to agree with since izzy really beat Alex the first fight and was beating him the second. History is written by the victors which is why most people think Alex is a better striker but in both of their fights izzy was beating alex. One he was robbed and the second was on him for getting sloppy but anyone who thinks alex is gonna walk in and run through izzy is more then likely in for a surprise
I've seen Lomachenko do a "Simon says" type board where you tap the colors as soon as it lights up. It improves your focus, reflexes and peripheral vision.
Cheal likes people who sell fights so if you don't do a lot to sell your fight he's more critical which makes sense cuz he's the king of selling fights.
I think Overeem probably loses, Ubereem probably wins. they have a historic legacy due to their rivalry and how good the fights were i wish both the best of luck and hopefully nobody gets damaged too badly.
Currently Izzy is the better MMA striker because we have seen it enough and how good he got and how quickly. That doesn’t mean his dance partner this time doesn’t have the ability to go strike for strike with him, but I do think Izzy will be in more trouble a year from now, so smart on him for getting this fight now while Pereira is still learning it. In the end, it’s MMA and it’s UFC. Which means anything can happen. They are both badasses with the ability to change their own destiny as well as their opponents. Quickly.
Vasili "Matrix" Lomachenko uses that kind of training with both tennis balls and the lighted touch board. It works well for him so Izzy might be on to something
Alex is like a stiff oak when he lands, strong foundation, hits hard, snappy quick and accurate. Izzy is more artistic and crafty and flowy but also deadly.
Their both tremendous at most strategic facets of striking. I think po atan is best as a hunter. He can take shots, trade, and either try to walk someone into a trap, or keep tracking, and firing when its there, till he gets the prey. Fashion curve can trap well to, tho i think there are distractions in how they each seek to do so, and while i consider Pereira is a pretty damn good counter striker, especially with the sinister fist, that is an area where i give Adesanya a top tier rating. He's even more consistent than Silva, albeit with fewer highlight reel, "the blow he needed, when no one thought it was still there" wins. when it comes to putting yourself in ralph wiggums levels of danger, just by trying to hit another human, you really can't do much better then trying to swing at adesanya.
The type of training Izzy was doing is extremely valuable for many sports. It exercises your ability to mentally process multiple factors (color, numbers, etc) while firing the correct quick twitch muscles. Even better if you do it while drained at the end of a workout!
Chael just told you not to explain why it’s good, he understands it’s not completely useless training but it’s more to switch up and not get bored than it’s something that Izzy religiously does. I had to do a lot of similar training both for eye therapy and kickboxing
@@RockwellProd my point is that not only is it not completely useless. It’s by no means useless! The small things are what separate average athletes from the greats. It’s this level of detail and training that makes Izzy as sharp as he is.
Alex is a better Kickboxer but Izzy is a better MMA striker... The four oz gloves make all the difference (I've fought bare knuckle, in small gloves, & 10oz. In the big gloves you can use longer combos & throw harder shots since you don't have to worry about defense as much since you can just shell up). Alex won't be able to just shell up & walk forward & corner Izzy. As he walks forward, he'll get countered since a Dutch style guard doesn't work in MMA (there's too much space for counters to slip through). Also Izzy isn't as reckless now & he's spent the last 24 MMA fights relying on movement, range & angles rather than shelling up to defend himself. Alex will get countered hard in the first & then he'll either rush in & get TKOd or he'll fight a boring fight & Izzy will win by Unanimous Decision. In kickboxing Alex might beat Izzy again, but in MMA right now, he loses 7/10 times due to his style that was created from fighting in big gloves. It doesn't matter who hits harder if Alex can't touch Izzy.
I do think Alex is a better striker and he has that power that Izzy just doesn’t really have but Izzy is more accustomed to MMA which gives him a big advantage imo. That being said I am leaning slightly towards Alex getting it done
izzy is an amazing and confident fighter, and i think he’s always known he would get the win…. this is the first time i truly feel, he doesn’t know the outcome of this, he knows there’s a 50 /50 chance he may be a highlight reel… and i don’t feel he’ll be able to pull this one off. this is the absolute MOST important fight of his career. his entire career and legacy up to this point, will be judged on the outcome of this one fight… period.
even his friend camps are saying thats a 50-50, Alex has Izzy fandom praying for a takedown, just a different gravy, the best brazilian pure striker in history, by a long shot. The guy has historys killing everyone on everygim across brazil, he even trained at chute boxe some time, every brazilian fighter looks up to him at a " red belt" striking master... hes really that guy.
Several boxers, most notably Vasily Lomachenko has been using that machine for 8-9yrs now. Used for maintaining Eye-Hand reflex via CNS. As you age, speed and reflexes decline. Its widely believed that practicing with such reflex machines does assist (like doing any applicable training method) in maintaining reflexes and cerebral electrical messaging, which directly affects movement/countering etc. Sounds crazy but its not new and seems to be spilling into MMA as well. As this sport evolves i would expect to see evolution in training methods. No matter how cool it seems saying anything outside whats done "normally" is a waste of time. IF that were true than ALL forms of training are a waste
If you told me 12 years ago that Chael would become one of my favorite people ever in all of mma I would've told you to kick rocks. I would've been wrong
Just another one of Izzy’s cringe ass, rehearsed in the mirror, one liners. This is why he’s so heavily disliked. Phenomenal fighter, just cringe AF, like Usman.
I think Alex is going to be more comfortable this fight than he has any other fight, even with the pressure. I say this solely because he knows this is just a striking match, only slightly different than what he's done for his whole life.
Acredite no que vou dizer: O medo e o nervosismo rouba sua energia. O medo de perder, de ser exposto em público faz com que sua energia e suas forças fiquem menores e você carrega um peso enorme no dia da luta. O medo de errar faz com que você cometa erros bobos. O mental te mata. Acredite Adesanya vai passar por isso tudo. Enquanto Alex Pereira vai entrar no tatame leve. Alex não tem nada a perder e em sua mente está suas duas vitórias. Já na mente do Adesanya está: "Esse é o cara que me humilhou por duas vezes" e agora quer me humilhar de novo. Querer roubar tudo que eu tenho. Minha vida e honra está em jogo. Não posso perder novamente". E isso vai fazer ele lutar com uma bola de ferro de 80 kg nos ombros.
Adesanya is fighting not to lose. For the first time, he feels pressured to fight to win. Precisely in the fight where you have the best striking guy, champion in two kickboxing divisions and who beat you twice. When Adesanya entered the fight he said I'm 100% better than this guy at striking, boxing, kickboxing. Now he won't be able to think about it anymore.
I was never a Kosh fan before the George fight. But not only did his toughness win me over but I started wanting them to stop the fight and save Josh lol. That was indeed the "jab fight" for MMA history.
I didn't like him until after he fought Daley, got sucker punched after the fight, and his response was something along the lines of "that was the best punch he landed all night".
He was mocking the tennis balls being thrown at Izzy. It's one of the many training methods of Anderson Silva except Silva had his being shot at him from a pitching machine. Pereira has gotten way better since his 2 wins over Izzy. I think Izzy gets KOd or submitted in rd 1.
Lerdsila and Kaoklai from Muay Thai also have really crazy evasive training since their reaction times are absolutely ridiculous. These guys fight young lions half their age and win because they react first even though they aren't physically faster.
Most most anticipated fight I’m ready for Pereira vs Adesayna. The fight to make for the December Card is Chimaev vs Covington. Make it happen Uncle Dana, Sean Shelby. Stay out of this Uncle Chael!
I'm not sure DC ever saw the fight once he said the thing about " if he ko him with boxing gloves imagine his confidence with 4oz " when Israel was touching him tf up... completely outclassed....and had Alex in a standing 8 count....he was really smacking him around before the left hand landed.... If Adesanya had him nearly KO'd multiple times with the big gloves my assessment would be that he'd have been slept long before he got Israel with the left hand....🤔
Who’s the better striker? Tough question. I will say Izzy is the better striker with the mma gloves because he has the experience in using them and also being inside a cage vs ring. Izzy has the advantage standing and Alex has the advantage on the ground.
@@vegeta9069 No, Izzy doesn't care about those fights from YEARS ago in a different sport. Alex is chasing Izzy to prove something to himself. He knows just like everyone else that Izzy should have won the decision in the first fight and Izzy was beating him in the second fight until he got caught. Deep down inside, Alex feels, and have probably been told how lucky he was. Why would you be do obsessed over someone you beat twice? Anyway, we will see soon what's going to happen.
Israel is the better distance/outside striker. Alex is the better close/inside striker. Alex has more power and I believe they’re both tied in accuracy. But Israel has better head movement. This is going to be a extremely interesting striking match. To prove which is better in standup. Close up inside striking or distant outside striking
Chael why don't you do more watchalong/fight companion content. Last time you did it did great numbers flr a fight night, imagine what eill it do for PPV.
Izzy is more elusive and uses more faints, BUT it does not makes him a better striker. Izzy would never be Glory Champ with Alex Pereira, Simon Marcus and Jason WIlnis on the game. Alex is a much better, tested and technical striker.
Lomenchenko? Lomanchenko? You know, actually uses the same board. Probably not because the board is quintessential to being a good fighter, but because you know you’re well trained enough to take a day off, but in addition, Lomenchenko said it was a tool to get in the moment. A way to help reads. Got to disagree with you chael, I like the board. If adesanya wants me to like HIM for the board, I don’t. But it does make a whole lot of sense.
Man, when u get 4 different blogs, all making a story off of this minor nothingness, shows an astounding lack of originality. Some of these cats need to lift their games, they all just regurgitate, speculate even off others speculation. I guess thats the difference between journalism and basements.

izzy is an amazing and confident fighter, and i think he’s always known he would get the win…. this is the first time i truly feel, he doesn’t know the outcome of this, he knows there’s a 50 /50 chance he may be a highlight reel… and i don’t feel he’ll
be able to pull this one off. this is the absolute MOST important fight of his career. his entire career and legacy up to this point, will be judged on the outcome of this one fight… period.
even his friend camps are saying thats a 50-50, Alex has Izzy fandom praying for a takedown, just a different gravy, the best brazilian pure striker in history, by a long shot. The guy has historys killing everyone on everygim across brazil, he even trained at chute boxe some time, every brazilian fighter looks up to him at a " red belt" striking master... hes really that guy.
that’s true brother… good stuff… can’t wait for this fight. and definitely the stacked charles olivera card too..great fights coming up 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
That’s a old footage of pereira on the hoverboard, but pereira is on 🔥
He who laughs last, laughs best
Lomachenko pioneered using those machines, they work
Reaction time, that’s what it’s for.
Several boxers, most notably Vasily Lomachenko has been using that machine for 8-9yrs now. Used for maintaining Eye-Hand reflex via CNS. As you age, speed and reflexes decline. Its widely believed that practicing with such reflex machines does assist (like doing any applicable training method) in maintaining reflexes and cerebral electrical messaging, which directly affects movement/countering etc. Sounds crazy but its not new and seems to be spilling into MMA as well. As this sport evolves i would expect to see evolution in training methods. No matter how cool it seems saying anything outside whats done "normally" is a waste of time. IF that were true than ALL forms of training are a waste
"You learned to dance like that sarcastically?"
Adesanya improved between the Vettori fights but yesterday you said name a fighter that got better with more fights lol.
Nobody mocks the GREAT Chael P Sonnen.
🤡
@@Happyfor96 🐓🐸🦆
I like how said that Mr. Sonnen. It wasn't that easy before...
If you told me 12 years ago that Chael would become one of my favorite people ever in all of mma I would've told you to kick rocks. I would've been wrong
Team Izzy for me, he knows this is a different game & plus he's like what Kobe said "same beast but different animal"
Just another one of Izzy’s cringe ass, rehearsed in the mirror, one liners. This is why he’s so heavily disliked. Phenomenal fighter, just cringe AF, like Usman.
I think Alex is going to be more comfortable this fight than he has any other fight, even with the pressure. I say this solely because he knows this is just a striking match, only slightly different than what he's done for his whole life.
Chael do you think Izzy made this fight early so he could fight alex before he got a lot of mma experience? Food for thought
Fym Izzy made the fight? Do u think bro runs the ufc? Izzy didn’t think peirera deserved the title shot. On account of him beating one ranked opponent
Weren't you saying fighters dont get better fighting yesterday chael?
Acredite no que vou dizer: O medo e o nervosismo rouba sua energia. O medo de perder, de ser exposto em público faz com que sua energia e suas forças fiquem menores e você carrega um peso enorme no dia da luta. O medo de errar faz com que você cometa erros bobos. O mental te mata. Acredite Adesanya vai passar por isso tudo. Enquanto Alex Pereira vai entrar no tatame leve. Alex não tem nada a perder e em sua mente está suas duas vitórias. Já na mente do Adesanya está: "Esse é o cara que me humilhou por duas vezes" e agora quer me humilhar de novo. Querer roubar tudo que eu tenho. Minha vida e honra está em jogo. Não posso perder novamente". E isso vai fazer ele lutar com uma bola de ferro de 80 kg nos ombros.
Well said friend
BYE BYE IZZY BYE BYE!
I disagree. Izzy isn't a Gamma.
Adesanya is fighting not to lose. For the first time, he feels pressured to fight to win. Precisely in the fight where you have the best striking guy, champion in two kickboxing divisions and who beat you twice. When Adesanya entered the fight he said I'm 100% better than this guy at striking, boxing, kickboxing. Now he won't be able to think about it anymore.
I was never a Kosh fan before the George fight. But not only did his toughness win me over but I started wanting them to stop the fight and save Josh lol. That was indeed the "jab fight" for MMA history.
I didn't like him until after he fought Daley, got sucker punched after the fight, and his response was something along the lines of "that was the best punch he landed all night".
@@tracysanders1500 That was Paul's last fight in the UFC lol. Well deserved exit. Yeah great line by Josh.
Izzy lives rent free in his head lmaooo
Vica versa
Uncle Chael, Why do you Not pronounce the first R in Pereira the same as the 2nd R?
He was mocking the tennis balls being thrown at Izzy. It's one of the many training methods of Anderson Silva except Silva had his being shot at him from a pitching machine. Pereira has gotten way better since his 2 wins over Izzy. I think Izzy gets KOd or submitted in rd 1.
Lerdsila and Kaoklai from Muay Thai also have really crazy evasive training since their reaction times are absolutely ridiculous. These guys fight young lions half their age and win because they react first even though they aren't physically faster.
Submitted?
@@mr5timewcwchamp yea he wish he can submit StyleBender lmao
izzy also got way better hes the champ he will take hes revenge
@@mr5timewcwchamp izzy hater are casual
After spending money on land titles now we're saving thanks Chael. You are saving what we don't have.
That thing he was using is a Lomachenko thing, it must come from Russian boxing. It's about coordinating your hands and brain
The light board is something Loma does. Maybe where he picked it up from.
The One and ONLY chaellll!!
Who cares who the better striker is, it’s the other mma subtleties that will matter, That’s where the fight will be won or lost. Izzy knows mma ….
Most most anticipated fight I’m ready for Pereira vs Adesayna. The fight to make for the December Card is Chimaev vs Covington. Make it happen Uncle Dana, Sean Shelby. Stay out of this Uncle Chael!
This match may be similar to the Silva fight. It will be an invisible chess match only fighters can see it. Timing, speed, tactics & technique.
I'm not sure DC ever saw the fight once he said the thing about " if he ko him with boxing gloves imagine his confidence with 4oz " when Israel was touching him tf up... completely outclassed....and had Alex in a standing 8 count....he was really smacking him around before the left hand landed.... If Adesanya had him nearly KO'd multiple times with the big gloves my assessment would be that he'd have been slept long before he got Israel with the left hand....🤔
Remember Chael still undisputed in middleweight class
I’m rooting for adesanya but that video of Alex sparring on a hover board was hilarious
Let me guess… you paint your fingernails just like your favorite fighter….
@@squadabingo9113 nope. Neve said he was my favorite either, bud.
@@TonyB369 touché
Who’s the better striker? Tough question. I will say Izzy is the better striker with the mma gloves because he has the experience in using them and also being inside a cage vs ring. Izzy has the advantage standing and Alex has the advantage on the ground.
Lomachenko uses a similar device too.
Style Bender in getting in shape running through Alex's mind.
Hahaha 2nd fight knock out in Izzy's mind.
@@vegeta9069 No, Izzy doesn't care about those fights from YEARS ago in a different sport. Alex is chasing Izzy to prove something to himself. He knows just like everyone else that Izzy should have won the decision in the first fight and Izzy was beating him in the second fight until he got caught. Deep down inside, Alex feels, and have probably been told how lucky he was. Why would you be do obsessed over someone you beat twice? Anyway, we will see soon what's going to happen.
@@erikmanguslehnsherr4389 a fighter that don't care about his fight?haha sounds like a lie to me, Izzy has a big ego for that. 3-0 soon.
Usman controlled the burns fight with the jab when he was using it
Israel is the better distance/outside striker. Alex is the better close/inside striker. Alex has more power and I believe they’re both tied in accuracy. But Israel has better head movement. This is going to be a extremely interesting striking match. To prove which is better in standup. Close up inside striking or distant outside striking
It actually takes a while lot more than just a tap! Better have up to ten days for it to process
But Chael what about Usman vs Burns? That was all the Jab
Can we get the Bad Guy song at the end again
Reaction time training seems to make sense to me.
Izzy didn’t get Paulo before he was out… he OUTED him. Remember the Ricky Martin reference?
Is this a rerun clip?
Chael why don't you do more watchalong/fight companion content. Last time you did it did great numbers flr a fight night, imagine what eill it do for PPV.
Izzy is more elusive and uses more faints, BUT it does not makes him a better striker. Izzy would never be Glory Champ with Alex Pereira, Simon Marcus and Jason WIlnis on the game. Alex is a much better, tested and technical striker.
8:40 Usman vs Burnes also maybe
Usman controlled the burns fight with the jab
I can't believe Kelvin Gastelum gave Izzy his best fight.....That reminds me, whatever happend to that Gastelum fella? Did he retire?
Moved to 170, and got injured before a fight at that division.
Lomenchenko? Lomanchenko? You know, actually uses the same board. Probably not because the board is quintessential to being a good fighter, but because you know you’re well trained enough to take a day off, but in addition, Lomenchenko said it was a tool to get in the moment. A way to help reads. Got to disagree with you chael, I like the board. If adesanya wants me to like HIM for the board, I don’t. But it does make a whole lot of sense.
The board measures reflex time…it’s used by baseball and football a decent amount. Not supposed to be some crazy exercise
Man, when u get 4 different blogs, all making a story off of this minor nothingness, shows an astounding lack of originality. Some of these cats need to lift their games, they all just regurgitate, speculate even off others speculation. I guess thats the difference between journalism and basements.
Alex was literally hitting pads on swegway so he might want to stop talking 🤣
On point again Chael!
