Really took this fight for granted. We didnt know how much of a monster alex was and izzy made him look human. Now we look back and see how great this rivalry was.
He could’ve and was going to end it before he dropped to his knees but since his head was down he stopped it the weave Izzy was doing was muscle memory cuz Piera was still landing
it was an early stoppage yes because when you see the damage Alex was doing to Izzy timing is different Izzy could've easily regretted if the fight didn't end at that point because he was losing anyway and the damage to his brain could be fatal@@NBaa2123
it was an early stoppage, but Alex ain't a grappler so he wouldn't go for a submission, which would put adesanya in serious trouble taking all those blows to the head while he's not even looking
Alex is just the ultimate evil man.. the way he raised his hands to excite the crowd at the start of round 2 when he saw izzy trying to calm them down is insane😂
@@michelsss625yeh I dunno man Alex is the man and Izzy is weird 🤣 but I think they good for each other, Izzy’s flamboyant shit pushed Alex to the ufc and in this fight Alex should have been exhausted in the 5th being rocked in the first to being on the bottom of the wrestling in rnd 3 yet that rivalry and shit talk Izzy did pushed him in the 5th to be the new champion! And for Izzy having this destroyer of a man poatan, powerful and insane skills bested him 0-2 pushed him to exchange and prove to himself you are a great fighter, these guys are a movie to be made man 😂 Glory took over UFC
This is one of my favorite fights of all time. The story/buildup of course, but then seeing Adesanya nearly KO him in round 1, the narrative mid-fight as the commentators start writing Pereira's obituary on round 4 about how he wasn't ready for this fight, and then BOOM, round 5, that surprise KO.
I think the ref stopped too soon. If you watch the replay, most of the last hits didn’t hit. And if Adesanya was really in danger he wouldn’t be able to IMMEDIATELY protest the stoppage. You don’t take a champs belt like this, sorry, bad stoppage
The fact that Izzy vs pereira 3 isn’t UFC 300’s main event is crazy. Instead we get to watch Jamal Hill get knocked out and put a new meaning to his “sweet dreams” nickname
hill is an absolute beast and dominated glover Alex’s coach. Every time I have seen jamalh fight it’s a banger and imma pereria fan I think it’s gonna be a tuff fight for Alex but he will take it away at the end
Such an amazing performance by both men. That hook Alex throws is one of the deadliest punches in MMA history. It flatlined the likes of Jamal Hill, Sean Strickland, and stunned Izzy to set up the finish. The touch of death.
@@sebastianmancha885yeah but with Alex’s track record going into that fight the ref made a good stop. That’s too much damage to absorb as he wasn’t evading enough of it
Coming here after the Alex vs Jiri 2. This is soo technical & the way they've counter each-other every singe time is just marvelous. Never watched it after watching it live but now I realize how technical & back-n-forth this fight was. But, after seeing what Alex has done, I truly respect Izzy's fighting skill also. No-one can out kick-box him like the way Izzy has. It's high high level stuff.
@@richmondnanadwomoh8427power is the great equalizer. Alex is the embodiment of that statement. No matter the style, Alex is in the game until he is breathing
Alex knows how to capitalize on his opportunities better than izzy, izzy plays it safe more. Both of them are great strikers and i would love to see izzy back as a champ
"Here's the thing about Alex. I can spar Alex, I can go point for point and you know I can hit him, I can kick him- But the difference is...the man touches you and you just fucking die" - Sean Strickland
It pisses me off no one has tried to wrestle Pereira to a win. Izzy gave him a HARD time here in the grappling and he’s not even that good of a wrestler
@@justbleedprod.9414 I doubt it easy to take him down especially with his jab and leg kicks plus his understanding of distance I think the only reason adesanya got some control time was bc he didn't expect for adesanya to fight like that
What astonish me is also how composed he is after winning, after being about to be rich and becoming one of the most discussed man of the sport. Crazy stoicism
Such an insane fight. Love these guys, no one strikes better than these 2. Craziest thing to me is how ridiculously fast Pereira recovers... he got badly hurt at the end of round 1, didn't know where he was, and by the time round 2 started he was already fully recovered.
I always like how the announcers are looking for the definitive blow in the replay and are like “it was the right, oh no it was the upper cut , oh another oh another one “😂😂
Why is nobody talking how Pereira moves forward or back ..? He takes little jumps with both his feet at once, there are no "steps", both legs go together most of the time and they're always under him. This basically means that, even if he's mid-"step", he can always throw.. He'll just start the movement while in the air, touch floor, let the hands fly.
Realizing how great of a fight this was in hindsight. Like during the moment it was huge, but honestly I haven’t really seen battles between two LEGENDS like this in a while. Truly two once in a lifetime acts just doing their thing
Definitly,but honesly i think izzy won second fight only because alex is waay to big for middleweight,his brain and body was all liquid and that affects on everything,focus,cardio,chin,etc...
@@skiptomylou1717this is such a shit excuse. alex ran through 3 other mw fighters no one claimed he looked drained. beat izzy here no one said anything about him being drained and once he gets kod now it’s the weight cut that caused it. if anything that just shows he was a weight bully at mw
They really were 😂 but watching that fight you would ASSUME it was Alex that should have been exhausted especially getting rocked in the 1st to being in open guard in the 3rd like they saw it for 4 rnds to 1 it should be done, but that rivalry just pushed Alex to be great in the 5th. These guys are insane man push each other to max limits
@@titanhelix9509 They were very even on the feet imo. And they both had eacother almost out this fight. Pereira got saved by the bell and Izzy by the ref

Bro after watching this I am no longer giving an opinion about any debate until I see it with my own eyes. It’s not like I just be yapping with no evidence, it’s the fact that I’ve seen so many edits and results of each fight that I assumed Alex was just way better, come to find out these guys are damn near even. I mean they were really going blow for blow.
Adesanya has the most TRAGIC 4 losses in MMA. 1. Jan - lost to the newly minted champ only AFTER Jon Jones left for HW. Jan was considered by many as not the true 205 champ, yet he outstruck & out grappled the "kickboxer" proving that Jones would have been a bad style march up. 2. Alex Poatan Pereira - his rival in a previous sport where Adesanya had already lost twice before, once by a brutal KO. Then after winning most of his fight, like in kickboxing, Alex takes the victory. 3. Strickland - after all the talk, Strickland had the style to throughly beat Adesanya... In kickboxing style no less. Losing immediately after avenging his loss to Alex, who Alex himself KOed Strickland before fighting Adesanya. 4. Dricus du Plessi - the decandant of the colonizer who, in whatever capacity, said he is the true African champ. Adesanya fought one of his best fights in his title fights overall, and still was over powered & then finally submitted. The Native Son lost. I wonder if he ever thinks about his career losses & see this picture. Careers are athletes stories.
I always rewatch this KO just for the commentary. The way they all realize at the same time that Izzy’s in trouble is awesome. And Anik says, “DOWN GOES THE CHAMPION” when Izzy stumbles away. Such a crazy finish
Te last punches Adesanya took in the 4th round in last seconds before timeout was definetly some stun but he managed to act like he wasn t hurt somehow
Indeed. Great stoppage by the ref knees will start flying only 1 heavy knee is really dangerous in that situation, without the amazing ref maybe we did not see the rematch.
Convincingly the best fighter with incredible technique, and the speed that gives us a beauty in the jumping fight. Watching him perfect it all. Well done, Israel Adesania is the most perfect fighter in MMA for me.🙏🙏🙏
When adesanya loses. He a humble. When he wins, he does a tik tok dance over your body and tells you to watch you mouth. So glad he’s lost 2 times now, he’s such a loser
That 1st round was so technical… Izzy little was pushing away the left hook and leaning to Alex’s right just to avoid it.. & Alex using the leg kicks to try to stagger Izzy right into one.. This is like watching two superheroes fight 😂🔥
impressionante como o Alex foi salvo pelo roubo dos arbitros no 1 combate no Glory,foi salvo pela contagem do juiz no 2 combate no Glory,,e foi salvo aqui pelo congo..resumindo ganhou as 3 lutas kkkkkkk..cara de sorte
Israel adesanya muito mais habilidoso. Os fãs não vou admitir Por que o Alex e brasileiro, mas lá no fundo todo mundo sabe que em todas a resolutas o adeus zânia bateu muito no Alex pereira, Enquanto Alex peguei é preciso muito de Sorte para vencer todas as lutas no ufoco.
kkkkkkk sua própria lógica te refuta. Na única luta que Adesanya ganhou ele tava apanhando e acertou um golpe que nocauteou o Poatan. A primeira luta deles nem teve KO.
@@Ratovx Igual essa luta no ufc, Poatan estava apanhando a luta toda e ia perder, mas no último round conseguiu acertar um golpe de sorte que o salvou. E na revanche foi parar no hospital, Adesanya foi o único lutador capaz de humilhar a Poatana. 💩🤣🤣💃
Fighters should be weighted at the cage before walking into the ring!! That will stop the guys from fighting in lighter weight classes! Alex is way to big for this class..
what the fuck are you talking about? alex is a light heavyweight and to fight adesanya he had to cut weight, he had a frack chin yet he managed to KO adesanya
Had izzy landed the right just a few seconds earlier, he could have finished the fight. But then we wouldnt have had that epic comeback KO in their second ufc fight.
@gustavodasilva1810 Izzy lost 3 times to 1 against Pereira, and Pereira didn't get a rematch against Izzy... also, Pereira knocked the guy who won against Izzy for the championship... wtf is happening?
@@gustavodasilva1810 Pareira the guy that got rush to titlefight. And couldn't even defend the belt one time. Izzy used to fight 3-4 times a year defending his belt. No champion did that. He gave sean and pareira the fight even tho technically don't deserve it. You don't see any other champion taking as much risk as he does. lmaaooo izzy is way more skilled than alex. Alex a dude who weighs around 230 pounds got knocked out by a guy izzy(195 something pound) lmaooo. And izzy won their first fight in kickboxing fight too. Ask any expert, wonderboy or mighty mouse, it was clear izzy won that one. So their record is more like 2-2. Even in this fight, any sane person can tell izzy was winning till that last round when alex caught him, izzy even caught him in first round. If izzy was a weight bully like alex, izzy would have rocked him much earlier lmaoo. Izzy only ever lost to one middleweight than is sean strickland,. Alex and Jan are natural lightweights who he lost to. Still the second best middleweight of all time in UFC.
@@Learner_29 😂😂😂 He didn’t “got rushed to the title fight”. He beat all of his opponents with ease in a spectacular way. And due to the fact the he had already beaten Izzy twice on glory kickboxing, it was obvious that the UFC would made this fight Happen. And the Chinese dogbender isn’t even close to being “the second best middleweight of all time”. If he were, he wouldn’t have been Spanked by Sean Strickland for five rounds straight then going into a vacation to cry on his mommy’s shoulder…
The way Izzy rocked Alex in the first round is almost identical to how he won the second fight
Yea, it looks weird when alex got hurt, mf look like a robot
That’s his weak spot maybe 😅
Aim For Poatans Left Ear 😜
The only difference is that in the first fight he didn't have the extra 5s to catch him with another shot. (Those legs don't lie Alex was on skates)

I’d argue only reason he landed the punches was cuz it was end of the round so pereira let guard down
@@agabellolmao a pro fighter is not letting his guard down like that, horrible argument
@@agabellolmao he had him wobbling after the 1st hit… how can you even argue that
@@isaachulberg1640 because pereira smoked him this fight. Sent him into another realm with his hook
@@agabello how did he smoke him when he didn't knock him out and it was in round 5 Izzy put this guy too sleep inside of 2 rounds
What a fighter Adesanya is no matter what
Humble man always 🏆 ✌️ 💪..He is the real killer...I love Alex
indeed
Convincingly the best fighter with incredible technique, and the speed that gives us a beauty in the jumping fight. Watching him perfect it all. Well done, Israel Adesania is the most perfect fighter in MMA for me.🙏🙏🙏
When adesanya loses. He a humble. When he wins, he does a tik tok dance over your body and tells you to watch you mouth. So glad he’s lost 2 times now, he’s such a loser
😂😂😂 yall cringy asf don’t even know these people personality yall hate them over character and entertainment
I mean he's a multi time ufc champ he's not a loser....cringe, arrogant etc sure, but anyone who is successful in this is in no way a loser
That 1st round was so technical… Izzy little was pushing away the left hook and leaning to Alex’s right just to avoid it.. & Alex using the leg kicks to try to stagger Izzy right into one.. This is like watching two superheroes fight 😂🔥
This is magic❤
Alex looks fucking way bigger then Izzy. Super impressive that Izzy knocked him out in that second fight.
Ive always wondered did the buzzer save somebody , never have i ever thought it did this MAGNIFICENTLY
13-15 unanswered blows while only dodging/ blocking a couple. I think it's a good stoppage
bro thats a classic already
Announcers were all up on izzys d 😂
impressionante como o Alex foi salvo pelo roubo dos arbitros no 1 combate no Glory,foi salvo pela contagem do juiz no 2 combate no Glory,,e foi salvo aqui pelo congo..resumindo ganhou as 3 lutas kkkkkkk..cara de sorte
"style-ender"
One of the best fights of this generation
Israel adesanya muito mais habilidoso. Os fãs não vou admitir Por que o Alex e brasileiro, mas lá no fundo todo mundo sabe que em todas a resolutas o adeus zânia bateu muito no Alex pereira, Enquanto Alex peguei é preciso muito de Sorte para vencer todas as lutas no ufoco.
kkkkkkk sua própria lógica te refuta.
Na única luta que Adesanya ganhou ele tava apanhando e acertou um golpe que nocauteou o Poatan.
A primeira luta deles nem teve KO.
@@Ratovx Igual essa luta no ufc, Poatan estava apanhando a luta toda e ia perder, mas no último round conseguiu acertar um golpe de sorte que o salvou. E na revanche foi parar no hospital, Adesanya foi o único lutador capaz de humilhar a Poatana. 💩🤣🤣💃
izzy wanting the crowd silent and alex wanting more noise lol izzys such a tool😂
Tool knocked brazillian witch out
@@wisewigga7129 3-1
CHAMA 🗿
This fight is overshadowed by the rematch and Its a really good fight
God is Great
5:37 bro imagine it was just a couple more seconds😂 would we even have the poaton we have now? yeessh glad the bell stopped it at the right moment👍
Izzy would beat jon jones at 205
Lmao no he would he got wrestled to the ground by jan. Jones would sub him
If Izzy would’ve put his foot on the gas in the second Round he could’ve got Alex out of there. My favorite fighters 🎉
Fighters should be weighted at the cage before walking into the ring!! That will stop the guys from fighting in lighter weight classes! Alex is way to big for this class..
what the fuck are you talking about? alex is a light heavyweight and to fight adesanya he had to cut weight, he had a frack chin yet he managed to KO adesanya
Is this sarcastic ?
@@user-fx3vs9gy1d No Looks Like Retardation
He put adesanya out in same weight class years ago🗿🪨
pick him up then@@saisimhareddy6972
LEEEEEEEEEEETS GO finally bro.
thank yoiu mateee
Had izzy landed the right just a few seconds earlier, he could have finished the fight. But then we wouldnt have had that epic comeback KO in their second ufc fight.
This is UFC 281. 287 Adesanya won. Please fix the title.
And now Izzy lost to Strickland and Pereira became a two division champion! 😂 Life is a bitch ain’t it?
@gustavodasilva1810 Izzy lost 3 times to 1 against Pereira, and Pereira didn't get a rematch against Izzy... also, Pereira knocked the guy who won against Izzy for the championship... wtf is happening?
@@La_Horca Izzy isn’t an skilled as the UFC system made him look like, they just wanted to create a new Jon jones for the Millenials. 😂
@@gustavodasilva1810 Pareira the guy that got rush to titlefight. And couldn't even defend the belt one time. Izzy used to fight 3-4 times a year defending his belt. No champion did that. He gave sean and pareira the fight even tho technically don't deserve it. You don't see any other champion taking as much risk as he does. lmaaooo izzy is way more skilled than alex. Alex a dude who weighs around 230 pounds got knocked out by a guy izzy(195 something pound) lmaooo. And izzy won their first fight in kickboxing fight too. Ask any expert, wonderboy or mighty mouse, it was clear izzy won that one. So their record is more like 2-2. Even in this fight, any sane person can tell izzy was winning till that last round when alex caught him, izzy even caught him in first round. If izzy was a weight bully like alex, izzy would have rocked him much earlier lmaoo. Izzy only ever lost to one middleweight than is sean strickland,. Alex and Jan are natural lightweights who he lost to. Still the second best middleweight of all time in UFC.
@@Learner_29 😂😂😂 He didn’t “got rushed to the title fight”. He beat all of his opponents with ease in a spectacular way. And due to the fact the he had already beaten Izzy twice on glory kickboxing, it was obvious that the UFC would made this fight Happen. And the Chinese dogbender isn’t even close to being “the second best middleweight of all time”. If he were, he wouldn’t have been Spanked by Sean Strickland for five rounds straight then going into a vacation to cry on his mommy’s shoulder…
Title says 287 but UFC 287 was Pereira vs. Adesanya 2
Faz o L kkkkkkkk
