    The performance against Brunson was a literal masterpiece of artwork. The patience, the combination diversity. I love how Izzy is so good at going to the body, attacking different levels, feints, reflexes of a Ninja. I'm always hyped to watch Izzy Compete 🤘🥋🤘

    The best thing about this is the Anderson Silva story. He said don't believe this guy is your friend because he is a spider, but then later on he told him to stop taking punches and put his hands up. Clearly he was in Izzy's head at least a little bit.

    2:57 I feel like that was probably the young Adesanya in him, the kid who admired the spider telling him not to do that.
    Probably witnessed the times he got knocked out by doing that and it probably upsetted him and wouldn't have wanted him to go out like that again.

      You are right. People who doubt Izzy should go watch is kickboxing fights and they will see him in his true elements where he doesn’t have to worry about takedowns. During his kickboxing, he looked even way more untouchable than Silva. The advantage Silva have over izzy is time. Silva got a tittle shot as is 2nd fight in the ufc and he knows jiujitsu. But if it’s just kickboxing, Izzy got that all day.
