Comment your favorite Israel quote from the interview
I donât throw and hope, i aim and fire
Favorite quote is âyou should talk to my friend Drew F. He over there but heâs shy and thinks youâre beautifulâ
None , theyâre all cringed
U might copy the recipe, but the sauce ain't the same!
Why would you want to quote such a repulsive person?
The best Adesanya interview I've ever watched. Second to David's tho... no one can test the uncrowned 145 pound champ.
blakamoto is coming for the interim while volk is at 55
Pivot podcast is the best one
Of course, that goes without saying.
This is a conversation, not an interview. Kudos to Taylor for asking some brilliant questions, actually listening and then asking follow-up questions for clarification. Ms. Rooks is emotionally intelligent and insightful. Great job, sis!
Your name is Andrew which implies that youâre a guy, and yet you said âsisâ in the terms of the way girls say it. Got some explaining to do bud.
She's hot and smart
@@TheBossVinegar I do, huh? Wait right there for my explanation...
@@andrewbrown3410 Now that Iâm reading your reply again, you actually have really articulate terminology and your sentence is grammatically impeccable. You put commas where they should be, your punctuation was on point, you capitalized places where capitalization was necessary, etc. The only problem I see with your statement is that you put 2 spaces after âthenâ and before âaskingâ. Other than that youâre awesome, not too often where you see people in CZcams comment sections with advanced levels of English like yours. Chefâs kiss.đđŒ
Indeed. Some interviewers just ask question after question, not even acknowledging the answer, let alone acknowledge the emotion presented.
Taylor is a great interviewer. She knows how to create a comfortable & open environment. For the guest, itâs like talking with a good friend instead of doing an interview. Her good energy is contagious & her ability to flow with the conversation is second to none. You can tell sheâs genuinely a good-hearted & cool person. Great listener & speaker. Very calming, intelligent, & insightful. Keep killing it đ
Damn, Taylor killed this
This is a career defining interview for her
She did great
Izzys best interview to date, mainly because it's all fresh questions. And the host is actually listening.
Yes I agree, too many reporters have their list of questions running in their head the next question without listening to the answers.
This is the first time I've seen an MMA fighter on Bleacher Report
They know the sport is growing
As he said, there's levels to this shit!!!
Great interview. I've watched a million Izzy interviews and none of the hosts got this much gems out of him. Salute
I said the same thing
Combination of Taylor being good at her job and also ridiculously gorgeous
STUNNING & BRAVE.
She asks great questions. Better than most MMA interviews I've seen.
That isn't saying much since the mma "journalists" are straight garbage. But agree with you, this was the best mma interview I've seen and the same questions weren't regurgitated like every other mma outlet.
Adesanya can really hold a conversation with everyone. Great insight. Taylor rocks!!
i think its rooks lol
They have a great chemistry together.
Damn! This lady is so centred and grounded which allows her to flow and go deep! When two artist connect you get this! Amazing đ„
My man u get that one right
One thing I admire in this guy is his consistency in what he says in all his interviews. Am proud that he is a Nigerian
Adesanya is my 2nd favorite of alltime behind Matt Hughes.
Izzy is the most interesting UFC fighter, so intelligent and authentic
You know he had to get that burp in. Respect.
Always đ€Ł
almost every interview he does for years! wonder what he does to cause it?
@@raphaelness1239 probably to relax. It may be a ritual.
Itâs not an Izzy interview without a burp. Someone will make a good compilation of his burps 1 day.
"ITS BETTER TO BE A WARRIOR IN THE GARDEN THEN A GARDENER IN THE WAR"
This is such a good interview, the interviewer has really good energy
What an amazing interview. You guys are brilliant. So smart. Keep going Sis. â€ïžđȘđżđđż
She's just done Izzy's most open and in-depth interview.
Absolutely loved this interview! Great job Taylor & Good Luck on your fight Izzy!!!!!!
âIâm the shit but I know I ainât shit.â đ„
'Frozen like Elsa' that shit was soo cooold
@@adhielden3470 like elsa
What an amazing interview!
First time watching this and this interviewer, but definitely not the last.
These twoâs authenticity made this interview great. Loved it.
Great interview. Enjoyed every minute of it.
The best interview of Israel I listened to so far, great content!
Bleacher Report needs to give Taylor a raise with these phenomenal questions. I just watched some of the deepest insights I have ever seen when it comes to one of my favorite fighters. Adesanya's fighting spirit has really grown this season, but you were able to capture the more personal parts of his life and emotions that makes a fighter whole.
Learnt so much about myself in this interviewâŠ. Thank you Taylor
great questions and flow of conversation. Awesome job Taylor
This was a great interview. Probably one of the best from Adesanya. She asked some great questions!
Best interview I've seen in a very long time
An incredible Conversation/interview
Man Taylor is the best interviewer Iâve ever listened to. I can tell her prep is top notch
I respect this man intelligence. I remember losing a bowling match and everyone kept saying I was defeated. I had to correct them. I was beaten but at no point I was defeated. They told me,you are a sore loser, what's the difference between the two. I told them defeated is mental and physical. Beat is when you lost. Being beat has nothing to do with the mind. Being defeated is a choice but being beaten isn't.
unfortunately he lost the war... and is now making up excuses... he will hit the PED's harder than ever right now
Can't believe I watched an hour interview with a fighter on youtube. Master class conversation.
This was a great interview!
What a great interview!
First time coming across Taylor. She's a good interviewer đđœ
Love this conversation đ
The best interview everđâ€
Wow super impressed by this interviewer. Refreshing to see a beautiful women who does interviews better than most men. Iâve seen almost every Izzy interview the last 5 years and she really threw some shit at him I havenât heard asked before. Def made me a fan, well done taylor.
You must be black
Taylor this interview was great!
Comprehensive Interview/Interaction, Blackbelt WorkâŠ
I had a HUMONGOUS SMILE On My Face Through Out This Interview, đđŸđžđŸđŠđžđŸđŠđłđŹđșđž
One of the best interviews I have seen, she is amazing
You look authentic together I must say. Kudos to both of you guys.
Beautiful interview.
They would make a good looking couple for sure
This lady needs her own channel. Phenomenal interviewer. Way different than the status quo. Should be monitizing her own audience. There is a certain respect, understanding, care, and relatability with the athlete I haven't seen much of, especially in MMA media.
Such an amazing natural flow, she is so intelligent and beautiful. This isn't an interview this is two family members having a family conversation
I don't think they had family members conversation off cameras
I agree. Iâm typically not into black girls, but Iâd definitely have sex with her.
@@JoeyCentral I give recognition to beauty regardless of nationality. Lol I'm an equal opertunist. đđ
@@JoeyCentral nobody asked what you were into,clown
What a brilliant interviewđŻ
I wasnât a fan of Izzy years ago. I now respect him greatly. Itâs been a slow process but this interview was next level inspiring. I hope it inspires new questions from current interviewers. Great job on both sides. Great dance.
Talented people đđżđ„
Great chemistry
Great interview
Good interview...Taylor, excellent job
This is a great interview!
what a great interview
Awesome interview đđđ
Dang idk if I should call this an interview but this is just a masterpiece,kicking off beautifully and ending it perfectly.I could even listen to this before sleep,anytime.I might repeat to watch this interview again.Amazing chemistry from Izzy and Taylor.
THIS IS A MASTERPIECE đđŸ
This is what Democracy looks like!
One of the best interviews with Izzy...and with any UFC fighter...
Taylor is a freaking awesome interviewer!! Her questions made me see another side of this guy. She is brilliant.
Great interview best one yet
Great chemistry between these two
Izzy is indeed a complete role model of a sound minded fighter mentally, and in all aspects of life. He will always be remembered, coming into this game with a God gifted frame, unassuming beating everybody in the division. " Am not worried about you, you are skinny bro" After words, then boom.
Man I love this man! Honest, Transparent, Humble, Courageous, Master, Forever White Belt, and Gangsta!
Damn she is an excellent interviewer intelligent, witty and sincere she's also very gorgeous đ
Fantastic interview.
Taylor is absolutely stunning and fantastic at what she does. This was a great conversation
đšđżâđ» đ Taylor was deep yet not to intrusive. This is how to conduct an interview. Their chemistry was amazing & very platonic. Stylebender keeps it where you can reach it. đđŸđđœđđŒđđ»đđđż
We need a follow-up from these two đź
this girl is a natural great interview , we need more like her
Great interview, they are both super intelligent and present in the conversation.
Taylor Rooks is such a gem. great interview
wow.. bloody good interview
If I were someone famous for my talents, I'd love Taylor Rooks to conduct the interview. She really allows the person to be understood and comfortable as a person. The nuance in her follow up questions is 2nd to none. Great work again Ms. Rooks and good luck Israel Adesanya!
Amazing interview
Great and impressive interview.
Player 1 really stuck with me this time. Thanks for the game
Greatest interview ever
Yeah, Israel is right about Taylor.
She turned this into a cool conversation, almost effortless. đđŸ
Interviewer did a great job. Very impressed.
Sheâs always good at interviews
Great interview, Izzy has such a chill, calm vibe about him, really hope he beats Alex Pereira đđđ
S/o for this interview! MMA just needs NBA type spotlight for its next growth stage. We need more of these!
The best interview
Kudos kudos kudos to Taylor for such a relaxed, fun interview. You can tell they enjoyed the conversation and it makes us viewers inherently enjoy it that much more. Taylor is an absolutely beautiful woman inside and outâŠ. And of course Izzy the man
Great interview
Great interview with the audio was so low it was hard to hear most of the conversation
5:57 not adesanya trynna impersonate Mikeđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łcome on man that's the best thing I've seen in a long timeđ€Łđ€Łlmao
Great interview. Even though we hinted on the sport, but she really got into the figherâs psyche. Adesanya is a great ambassador of the sport. A lot of MMA fans canât differentiate the showman from the real person
Wow best interview thus far kudos to Taylor for asking different questions not the usual asked questions
đđđMy God that woman! Wait there was an interview going on ?!đ€Ł
Fantastic conversation
Best Israel Interview to date - in my opinion.
Good lord Taylor Rooks....
Clear and pretty meaningful interactive meetâ€
She is such a good listener!!!!!!
The best ever this man is a legend. Classic
I didn't go looking for revenge "but... life presented it to me" Awesome đ đ đ. Your time is now!!!!
Taylorâs feelin that Izzy vibe, theyâd make a nice couple
Loved this.. honestly I scrolled past this at first. I love listening to izzy but thought nah lol đ so glad I watched
Really enjoyed this interview while drinking champagne
King & Queen energy is all i have to say.
Awesome!
Damn, great interviewer. I'm extremely impressed.
This is totally giving me âmeet-cuteâ vibes. I ship. I ship. Then again it can be easy to conflate charisma and professionalism with chemistry đ€·đżââïž Either way, fantastic interview.
Izzy being interviewed by a whole Goddess.
Yes sir
This man has fought nothing but killers literally the fastest strongest most athletic fighters on the planet and made it look easy. You got this brody and wise words from a decent man
