That's what happens when both guys wanna counter punch
100%
Has nothing to do with countering they want any type of engagement instead of him just running around and doing leg kicks! They wana stand and bang!
@@jeffreymayhew3134 Didn’t know only one side is allowed torun, both side come with a game-plan Adesanyas has been basically the same since he was champ, but simply upgrading his defense td along the way, which is why you rarely see the likes of Vetorri, Romero, Costa, etc. not constantly use their size as an advantage as they normally do against their other opponents...
@@jeffreymayhew3134 spotted the casual
If everyone were counter punchers this is what every fight would look like
They’re not ‘frozen’, they want Izzy to lead because he’s always a defensive counter puncher
Dont you say????!!!?!?!
Then when he does lead he puts on a leg kick clinic lol
@@kornelthunderbolt9962dick
I stg if Izzy was more offensive I think he coulda beat Strickland
@@xx_colton_xxNot coulda, woulda. Looked like he didn’t even want to fight
If everyone in the sport fought as cautiously as Adesanya there wouldn't even be a sport anymore, nobody would be paying for it.
There's a difference between caution, and strategy. Izzy is just a master of sticking to the gameplan, which in most cases is to play the distance game until the opponent gets frustrated with being picked apart and starts making mistakes. Kinda sucks for you that you either don't understand, or don't appreciate that super high level of tactical striking
@@Idkwutimdoin I'm 6'8 with long arms for my build and I was always cheering for Izzy to lose. You can call it clever fighting, but he's being a coward and not a real warrior. I want to see warriors duking it out not someone just doing the gayest fighting style so he can beat on the manlet divisions.
@@schweinehund3497 damn you've got some chips on your shoulder. Grow up dude 😂
@@Idkwutimdoin shit's gay and not exciting. jon jones has reach too and his fights are fun to watch cuz he's a warrior not some coward one trick pony. who wants to watch some guy that always retreats?
@@Idkwutimdoin”frustrated with being picked apart?” lol. The opponents are frustrated but not being picked apart. Izzy is a great defensive counter. His offense all comes from the opponent’s movements. He frustrated his opponent by being just that but doesn’t not pick them apart. Look at what happened with Sean who’s also a great defensive counter
Yoel is like an iron fortress with that face guard.
Yoel is like a dickpuncher.
And isreal doesn't try a body shot and break the guard.
Is he really just a counter junkie and made it to the top with cheap hits?
@@crs19191919well he knows he would lose if he tried to brawl with yoel… it’s common sense
@@crs19191919I really hope your joking because as far as skill goes Israel is one of the best. And I’m not dick riding as I’m not a huge fan of Israel’s personality. But we gotta be real. Izzy striking is top tier.

Underrated you are right
Lol saw that fight it was like they both just stopped to emote
I think that’s what he was going for tbh. Seems like something Izzy would do intentionally
Clash Royale players be like
That's what I got the first time I saw them fight. Izzy loves the anime/video game nerdy stuff.

That's why Sean did so well. He just backed Izzy up the whole time and calculated his strikes, never throwing anything wild or flashy that Izzy could counter.
yeaa same cautious defense, plus pressure = izzy kryptonite
Checked every leg kick, dodged it, or blocked them...all of them.

“Homero”

I think it’s funny because Joe Rogan said it makes you think… if I do it is just him standing there waiting for you to give him punishment and you’re scared out of your mind to step forward…. I think that is kind of a funny situation
What he doin?!
@@DjangoMMA basically ufc rounds go for ages one round goes for 5 mins doesent sound like long but when your fighting someone like adesenya all he does on tought opponents is keep his distance only does leg and body kicks and only really goes for a jab you won’t see him go for a takedown or a scrap he is very passive aggressive now Yoel all he wants to do is fight and get it going that’s why he stands there as a joke really trying to mock him because he isn’t doing anything to fight him, adesenya does this to most his oppenents I just wish someone learned how he fought and could counter it because for his weight he is really tall and long limbed which is like perfect when your doing this kind of combat. But honestly I don’t even get that hyped for his fights these days there good and that but legit they are all the same just dancing around for 5 rounds then he goes in last round but honestly looks like adensenya has no power in his punches but somehow still knocks people out with his fists so idrk, we also kind of know but haven’t really seen how good his chin is so maybe that’s why he dances around because he hasn’t been hit with the full power of the some of the top dogs in his division but that’s also why divisions are important if adensenya went up to the next weight which isn’t too much difference but still has a big effect in the fight when he was versing Yan he got destroyed really just shows that bigger the opponent the much easier the fight will be for them when you get that good at fighting everyone really reaches there limits and can’t really get any better in ufc everyone is at there peak so the littlest changes like weight length of arms / legs, neck build, chin all altercates because a 220 pound man when compared to a 180 pound man punching the 220 obviously scientifically will do more damage so really skill goes so far until you a reached with the science and facts that the greatest strongest fighter in the world can’t be Bruce Lee because if we were to put him against Roy Lewis or Francis nganou or Jon Jones it will be a shit show not saying Bruce isn’t one of the greats but if we look at it scientifically Bruce Lee would be in featherweight versing a heavyweight there’s just no chance I’m sorry to everyone but people saying there would be a chance are kidding themselves it would just be a murder everyone likes to have an imagination but people need to face facts. Any way that’s my random rant that I forgot I was even typing for cheers 🥂
Okikikliii I’m ikikikkMokpo
Israel Adesanya was the one running away from yoel, not freezing him.
That’s what he meant when he said “Frozen like Elsa”😂
The "romero" always makes me laugh
Didnt show the part where izzy was running away from romero like usain bolt.. made it look like it was all romeros fault

@@epicipodmodz Lmaoo
@@moltoforte4450 Ali once said something along the lines of hit your target and run away so then you can fight another day, and he's widely accepted as the greatest boxer of all time.
Izzy is an exceptionally high level kick boxer, if you expect him to just stand infront and take volleys of strikes you are the problem not him.
The guys that stand and brawl are entertaining as fuck but they are not very highly skilled fighters in comparison. They are not even close.
@@epicipodmodz Mike Tyson knocked out opposition over and over again and had fans rage against him because they would spend hours waiting to see him fight and then he would knock the dude out in the first round. The fans hated him for it and were demanding refunds.
You guys will never be pleased and will always bitch about something.
I don't usually like boxing comparisons because they are normally used poorly but I gave 2 above that perfectly fit so do what you will with them.
the "romero" moment with costa is so cool
Shared a moment, competed against each other.. and then Izzy humped him while he was down 😂
Clearly mocked Costa for "freezing" like Romero
@@dieselx999 and Costa doesn’t give a fuck, dudes mental is insane. Lol he truly does not give a fuck about anything, it’s hilarious
@@dieselx999 I'd like to think Adesany was making fun of himself for being so passive that whenever his opponents stop aproaching for a little bit nothing happens.
Alternative title: Adesanya being a counter striker and refusing to move first (thus making boring fights)
Lol he is the defender of the belt. He throws more attack than the challenger
When Adesanya was a contender, he gave it his all during the Gastelum fight, and TKO’d Whittaker. Romero, Costa, Cannonier, and others didn’t do any of that.
Same thing with floyd , counter punchers are boring but they always win
“Come on. Stand directly in front of me and don’t move so I can hit you”- Costa 😂
I mean yoel has like one of the weirdest fighting styles i have ever seen, its almost as if he doesnt know how to fight but does i cant explain it
Try to fight some pro fighter and duck under his punches like yoel does.. then come here again saying wether he can fight or not. The man without neck has much better defense than yoh will ever have .

He is using his advantage which is picking them apart
@@jt4747 fucking keyboard warriors man swear to god they think there pro fighters or some shit
@@kriyp9261 no its cause izzy and silva both like to counter there opponents. Thats why izzy won't really engage.
The most exciting non-fighting I've ever witnessed. 😂
I've always said it and he's been exposed. He's a piece of shit in real life that acts like somebody he's not because he thinks he's cool. More and more ppl are starting to realise it. Anybody who supports that fake gyno/manboob cheat has no morals
Yoel does this in most fights to a lesser degree, he moves super slow to make it surprising when he explodes on people, but Izzy’s space management negated Yoel’s rush attacks leading to non-engagement after Izzy’s first taste of Yoel’s fist
"Space management" 😂
Space management = running from opponent
@@dof3 survived 25 minutes with a human cannonball, “and still”. Don’t be too proud 2 run bois

@@gigachad6885 kinda hard to run from someone that isn't chasing you.
@@gigachad6885 so what did you want him to do then?
He doesn't freeze anyone. His opponents get tried of chasing him around the octagon so they stand their waiting for him.
And then they get koed by him or lose the match
If you get tired chasing the champion around the octagon then you probably don't deserve the title
Chasing around??? No chance that’s the case. People just say anything these days, both the Romero & Costa fights were in the first round, they just started the fight. He definitely was freezing them, they saw how Whittaker got aggressive and got cleaned up by Adesanya.
Chasing is a great way to get yourself on the mat face first with your eyes rolled back 😂💀
@@cipherP9 he definitely wasnt, what a horrible take. They are clearly waiting for him after chasing him around the whole fight. Go live in your fantasy land somewhere else 😂
He didn't freeze no one, he always run around and his opponent wait for him to approach
Nobody is frozen. Yoel was not tryna play Israel's back and forth tag.
Adesanya : Doesn't do anything

@@yoool7137 exactly. All izzy does is exploit his opponents shorter reach. Yoel knew he would stay on the outside. So come fight. Nate diaz did the same to silva. He knows he has less speed height and reach, so you have to use a high guard and use your superior strength
@@yoool7137 so they just wanna play Izzy's game a tall skinny dude who has a reach advantage over them?

I'd never say he's not a good fighter, but I just don't like him for this exact reason. Nobody wants to get hyped up by a big name fight just to see the guys wait for their chance to counter each other the whole night. The guys has great skill, and some great highlights.

The fact their fight was competitive when Anderson was so past his prime tells me everything I need to know
It just like an anime, these characters are so good at fighting that talking is more important than the fight 💀 but they still fight
Adesanya doesn't appeal to casuals. If you understand the technical aspects of his game then he's a really interesting fighter to watch.
Same with mayweather but people hate to admit it
He's one of the most popular ufc fighters of all time and 80% of his fans are casual dickriders
He’s not such a boring fighter
@@techstuff6551 but maywearher isn’t good tho he didn’t fight any one good
@@alexk3469 🤡
If Paolo Costa could have another run and challenge for the title without excuses that'll be crazy
Probally soon will be. You got Marvin or Whitacker probally going after Alex if Adesanya loses again.
Then you have Adesanya vs Costa left.
@@aitnobetafaq The redemption arch begins
@@mondlimathonsi3402 hope so. I think everyone knows izzys style by now. Love to watch them match up again. I got Costa winning in part2 already calling it.
@@aitnobetafaq I hope you staked your life inheritance on poatan to win🤡
Counter striking is a passive style.
It's the "I'm not a real fighter" style.
Those covid days really do hit different
So izzy is scared to be the one to ingage... that's what I've gathered from those clips
Exactly, he wants them to engage so he can try to counter.
Well ,I see those guys taking a beating and mentally they stop coming at Izzy and stand there looking, One guy complain about Romero standing and not trading punch only for him to do thesame thing and adesanya says *Romero* she he can remember his own words.
By your logic, Connor McGregor is also scared to engage, cuz he's a counter puncher
@@skyy_raider8994 you don't know Connor then lol..he's not "only" a counter fighter he pushed the pace and ingages that's not even a close to a good argument... and I don't even like conor and I know he's "not just" a counter fighter
@@michaelanderson3601 no no it's a pretty good argument. Nobody wants to get hit, Izzy is waiting for yoel to attack first for a counter
I’ve never been this bored watching grown men fight
Not even considered a fight bro. Thats shit kids do on the elementary school yard a recess
@@michaelgarcia-dj4co both of you bozos dont fight
So you say on your computer
Learn what you are watching. This is greatness!!
Frozen like Elsa. 🥶
This is why I was impressed by Sean, always pressed him and kept walking him forward
I remember when Romero was complaining that Izzy did nothing the fight because he didn’t fight the way he wanted Izzy too but he just stood there
I also remember Adesanya literally running away from him. He literally sprinted away lol
@@pailaquemad123 No, that's not how it works. Imagine a champion running away the whole time. Gotta destroy the champion but gives the champion no reason to engage
"Romero 🙆" 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
I love during Covid when you could here then speaking to each other
bro changing batteries mid fight is crazy
Loved the Silva fight. The respect was awesome to see
Izzy the one who froze against Silva. He said it himself in an interview lol
Izzy froze like Elsa when Alex KOed him 😂
And he returned the favor😂
Well, THAT title reign didn't last long, did it? 😂
