From being out grappled by Bruno Silva to winning against Jan. Alex has improved a lot. I can now finally say that he really belongs at the top of the UFC.
JAN WAS ROBBED EVERYONE KNOWS IT
Facts🎉
Bruno didn't do anything to Pereira on the ground. Only one to keep him on the ground was adesanya. Alex is too strong
he beat the legendary polish ball sniffer snoozefester Jan
If Jan was younger and if they fought in a lower altitude arena, Jan would of dominated.
3 months after getting put out cold. First fight at LHW in the UFC. At elevation. Grapple Heavy approach from Jan. Really impressive win from Alex,
Jan just looked so slow and old
JAN WAS ROBBED EVERYONE KNOWS IT
@@Chadius_Thundercock excuses
U don’t have to keep reminding people he was knocked out no need for it
@@SoulAlmighty1660It adds to how impressive the comeback was
The way I see it, Jan gassed himself out trying to get the submission in round 1, and by round 3, his strikes didn't have enough power to hurt Alex. So great job by Pereira for weathering the storm and mostly taking control of the fight. Looking forward to seeing him again maybe somewhere that doesn't affect his cardio so much.
Yea Jan look gassed and the control time don't do anything
Alex didn't look as bad but must've been pretty gassed as well, barely threw power punches/ combinations in rd 3
JAN WAS ROBBED EVERYONE KNOWS IT
@@MyBoyNewtonyeah man he caught jan with alot of left hooks and we know what happens when he hits you with that with full force.
Alex was gassed too bad defense and hardly using many techniques.
Periera’s ufc run has just been so entertaining and iconic. Really happy to see that run continue strong.
Greatest combat athlete of all time. If he becomes double champ he will be only Glory & UFC Double Champ Ever
More impressive than any other accomplishments, gold Olympic medal doesn’t mean much when you consider they’re amateurs & Poatan became double champ against Professionals , big difference
@@Envycolt True.......
@@Envycoltare you being sarcastic lmfao
@@Envycolt There's a difference between a Double Champ and a Two-Division champ. He was the first Glory double champ, but he would not be a double champ in UFC because he lost his belt to Izzy.
I think the elevation and the huge energy exertion trying to force a submission definitely ended up costing Jan, because Poatan noticed he was tired after that and kept ripping jabs to the body instead of headhunting, which is really smart, close fight, but definitely the right decision, those damn leg kicks tho 💀
Jan has had cardio issues in the past. At elevation, it was only going to rear its ugly head once again if he couldn't get Alex Pereira out of there. I warned people about it (I was largely ignored) as I predicted, Jan was moving/fighting like he was underwater in rounds 2 and 3 😂
Bruh the knees to the body too let’s not forget😟😬
@theoneandonly1819 Getting ruthlessly GASSED!!! 🙂☠️
@@madgavin7568 You're not some mystic messenger.🤡 You can stop gobbling your own horse now. Literally EVERY prediction vid I saw factored in the fact that Jan is older and has had cardio issues. You're not special dude ☠️
Jan might have cardio issues but I really wish they would stop fighting at elevation. It makes some fights worse and it allows fans to make an excuse for why some fighters lost because of gassing.
Alex and his leg kicks are just insane. If this was a 5 rounder, Jan wouldn't be able to walk by the 5th.
Alex also looked really impressive on the ground, we all thought once he's taken down, it's all over.
But he didn't slip up in the 1st. He's definitely improved!
If this was a 5 rounder, Jan would've fought at a slower pace and wouldn't have tried so hard in the 2nd, and so wouldn't have gotten gassed.
@@humzachudhary2056 Exactly!! These Alex d riders just say anything without actually making any logical sense
Alex would have got a finish off a body strike or a late KO
@@humzachudhary2056really? You realize they where at eliviation, same reason Leon got tired in the 2nd Usman fight
Neither guy looked too good in this fight period. Weasel picking Alex to beat Jiri off this performance? lmao thats jokes.
I do agree that Pereira won and I CANNOT WAIT for Pereira and Prochazka to fight for the vacant belt. That will be nuts
why it should be Prochazka, why not Ankalaev?
@@NebeskiJerusalimyiri was already owed a title shot and now he’s healthy
@@ryquelwalker6209 it's okay, but why should division wait for someone, they could arrange Ankalaev vs Pereira for title meanwhile, Ankalaev desreves title shot also, all credits to Pereira as one of the greatest in combat sport ever, but he was koed in his last fight, now split-decision won, it should be Ankalaev for title this year as well IMO
@@NebeskiJerusalimJiri never lost his title
@@NebeskiJerusalimno ankalaev doesn’t deserve a title shot and he’s so boring
That’s very impressive. I picked Jan despite being a Pereira fan. His training with Glover seems to be paying off.
@@STATOSHI I agree.
So Volk won😂
@@tylerrinck7060 That fight was even closer than this one but I personally believe that Volk won against Islam yes.
@tylerrinck7060 yes according the the new judging criteria. He should have won imo. Although, that fight was a lot closer than this one.
If I pinned you down laying on you for five minutes then you got up and punched me in the face….could I say I kicked your ass?
When the rounds are this close, no one should call robbery
Lol
Lol x2
Lol x3
Lol x4
Lol x5
I believe Alex won, Alex looked very improved, however his take down defence is either great or completely suspect
Nuh uh
I think that jan is not that grat of a wresteler, but alex did good in the grappling, even his sub deffence
@@Jnikola97 For a top 10 fighter Jan's wrestling is probably below average, considering what we saw vs Ankalaev, Rakic, Glover, etc. His bjj is pretty good though, Pereira's sub defense looked good
It’s not great but it’s not bad. He’s new to it but he will only improve in time.
JAN WAS ROBBED EVERYONE KNOWS IT
Jiri and Alex is the fight we need! That has fight of the year written all over it
Jiri will destroy that weight bully😂
@@grzehmk he's not a weight bully anymore
@rougeegamer98 he will comeback to mw .Jan wasn't even once in danger 😂
@@grzehmk he literally lost? What are you even saying? Alex is now in contention for LHW belt
@@rougeegamer98 😂😂he won't compete in lhw u tool😂
Love Alex Pereira. It was hard not be concerned Round 1, but he came back strong particularly in the second.
His walkout is iconic and what he has brought to the UFC with the Adesnaya rivalry has been unbelievable.
Hope he secures that trilogy down the line.
His walkout will live forever it’s iconic
Poatan lost on the first title defense. L-tier, he's going to be a gatekeeper for a long time
@@distinguishednetizen5400your life is sad bro
@@distinguishednetizen5400 Gatekeeper? He has already said he's fighting for the light heavyweight strap then wants Adesanya at Middleweight. The matchmakers want Adesanya vs Pereira and so do all the fans (apart from you?)

Respect judges for getting this fight right, I'm glad weasle got this out so quick
Way to go Jan! You hung in there, especially at 40, against a respectable and tough opponent in Alex. Stay true, brother, we love you.
Wholesome
Its cool to see Alex fight someone that isnt Izzy. Someone with a more well-rounded skillset. Im excited to see what more he can do at LHW.
Yeah, it was a nice change. Alex and Izzy have fought 4 times now. It's time to see some new match ups
Alex better than anyone thought....
He's learning fast
Not everyone.
Still cant grapple kickboxing looked mid against jan hes a leg kick merchant
@@Ar1AnX1x Hes brazilian 🤣🤣 excuses excuses
Alex looks amazing at LHW. That was his 6th fight in UFC. Thats crazy.
I was very impressed by Pereira's defense. Jan barely did any damage on the floor, but it was because of Pereira's defense. Looks like Pereira did put the work.
Nah Jan wasn’t striking from the dominant positions, he had the back for almost an entire round and threw no strikes.
@@joshuaprasad1392 yeah poatans defence was good
@@realtalunkarkuyou can’t have good defense if your opponent isn’t throwing anything
Very inspiring and profound analytical statement.
It’s like you can’t have good offense if your opponent is defending everything!
man I am really surprised that Jan got tired like that, his cardio was always good and he didn't have a problem earlier with fighting for 5 rounds, could it be maybe cause of the altitude difference?
They were fighting in UTAH at High Altitude
The body lock in the first round probably didn’t help, probably tired out his legs
Yes
The altitude definitely make a difference with wrestling heavy approach that Jan implement
Poland and Utah are different
Jan said he wanted to strike with Alex and dove in the first 10 seconds and still couldn’t win tuff
He struck the whole 3rd round.
yea LMFAO
@@Warpig9only after gassing himself out trying to grapple 😂😂😂 lmao Jan is always boring. So happy UFC will stop giving him undeserved contender matches
@@Zolo00rockhold? Anderson? Reyes? Doesn’t seem like you’ve watched any Jan blachowicz fights…
@@Zolo00
Bruh alex fans just as toxic as izzy fans
I had Alex winning 29-28 but was really scared one judge would score the fight 30-27 to either fighter you never now what's on the scorecards
JAN WAS ROBBED EVERYONE KNOWS IT
30-27 would’ve been wild. But with these judges nowadays I wouldn’t doubt it.
This was Alex’s best win. Showed to be a complete Martial artist and honestly he took Jan’s shots Better than I expected. I honestly thought Alex could get put out cold.
Why would you think that 😂😂😂
He got taken down by a non wrestler and nearly was choked out. The only reason he won is because Jan apparently did not train at elevation
@@Reloading20 non wrestler? Jan is one of the best grapplers in the division lol. Jan took down Izzy and controlled him sooo…… get some knowledge before you try and talk dummy
@@Reloading20 you dont think jan was wrestling all camp? Blame it on the fact that he didnt expect alex to defend the takedowns and subs so well.
@@gavinma4831? Of course he was training wrestling, he'd be an idiot not to. So was Alex. But neither of them is a good wrestler. You don't become a great grappler in a few months. Masvidal trained with Bo Nikal all camp to prepare for Covington and look how much good that did.
Fan of pereira here and although it was a close fight i felt like pereira did have a chance to ko or tko jan but he was being timid after coming off a ko loss three months ago but happy that he proved himself and got the W.
Jan was robbed.
yea when he backed jan against the fence he looked so scared to let his hands fly because of his KO to izzy but i thought he coulda closed it out there
Jan is counterpuncher and had power
Indeed
Better safe than sorry😂
Pereira is such a special fighter showing he’s no just a great kick-boxer but also also a mma fighter
I was discussing the ufc scoring with a friend. As I am fairly new to UFC it looked like takedowns are heavily favoured so I thought Jan was going to win but man I really thought Jan did terrible he just laid on top of Alex inflicting no damage. I’m glad Alex will go on to fight Jiri, that will be a lot more entertaining to watch.
Takedowns are not heavily favored. The problem is judging is extremely inconsistent so it confuses fans
Takedowns were* heavily favored, the New Unified Rules changed this. Still, the guy above is right: judges are inconsistent towards this criteria. We shouldn't need to guess how the judges are feeling about this.
@Blackreapxr the problem is fighters who matters for ufc getting more points from judges for takedowns
I had Alex winning. Jan can't expect to get a late takedown and do literally nothing and win that rd. I absolutely love that the judges aren't just giving rds for getting a takedown and doing zero damage
agreed
Yup. I think we’re all so used to seeing wrestlers win while doing close to nothing on the ground that it clouds our judgment. I wanted Pereria to win but I was pretty surprised he did
Rd 3 was really close, watching live I was wondering wether Jan got more damage done with his combinations or Alex with single shots. Jan has the skills and power to make a run at the title but his cardio failed him against Ankalaev (originally scheduled for 3 rds) and now against Pereira (in altitude).
Jan is unlucky
Watched it live too, easy Alex win.
@@strawhatpandashp5816how was that an easy fight lol
@@kane7930bro was piecing Jan up the whole time
@@OhSoNastyespecially when he started defending the takedowns and jan started gassing he got pieced them last 2 rounds
In my opinion, Jan won the first and 3rd rounds. 2nd 100% goes to Alex. If Jan can have Alex's back like that it tells me he's a heck of a dangerous guy, He did not fully exploited that opportunity but shows he's a true mix martial artist.
He couldn't submit a kickboxer while he had his back for the entire first round and almost got choked out himself.
Then he was outstruck in the champion round. Jan lost fanboy. Go continue to cry about it. I will drink your tears all day. 🍿
@@JB77776Alex lost this fight man. Jan dogged Alex and even held his own in stand up. Weak performance by Alex
@@honkeykong1985 hmm interesting that's not what the fight results say. Go cry to mommy. 😭🍿🤡
@JB77776 lol you are embarrassing yourself kid.
@@jamesdest5609 Sure but Jan won regardless
This is funny… you gave Jan an extra light strike in the beginning, and broke out the .5’s for Pereira’s strikes. You’re not even trying to hide your biased intentions anymore 😂
I score it for Alex too, but it was that close that it’s hard to say the people who score it for jan are straight up wrong. One of the closest rounds possible
Nice breakdown. scoring heel kicks from the bottom. whatever. The round was even with little to no damage accomplished by either fighter. I would have given it to Jan due to the last minute take down. I felt that was what separated the round.
100%
You're really counting those 7 heel kicks when Alex was on the bottom?
Alex is going to be a scary scary man with a little bit more takedown and grappling defence
@@KombatKompanion-yd2cu funny that. Considering the evidence we saw last night proved you’re talking bollocks. Alex was dominated on the ground by Izzy and then held off and defended against Blacowicz….

Crazy how big Alex looked even compared to Jan.
Great video! Thanx for the content
@TheWeasle
Thanks again for another great fight analysis!
Alex wasn't super fatigued if this was 5 rounds jan wouldve been finsh3d
Jan would have tapped to exhaustion in a 5 round affair 😂
I thought Jan had round 2 because he was dominant for most off the round. PereIra just got some kicks and punches in in the last minute because Jan was tired. Pereira didn't look impressive either considering he is asking a title shot after a questing blessed victory
If was a bad fight
Jan did nothing with his wrestling. The takedowns meant nothing and Alex did more damaage the 2nd round. Pretty easy call to me.
@@mr5.0 He had some good gnp shots in r2
@@DownhillDave Had like 4 elbows and Alex shut it down and stood back up.
Great commentary!!! ❤❤❤
You break it down the way it is good job bro 👊👌
This seems closer than i remember. Had it as a comfortable victory for alex in the third personally
Sayin Jan did nothing with his takedown and then giving 7 POINTS to Pereira for those heel kicks off his back is farcical 😂
yea i agree i think this guys takes are fkn garbage and i do atleast half the time. He seems to always try to show that the judges "actually got it right" strangly
He counted them little sissy strikes Jan threw too.. dont nobody care if you like the score.. Jan looked like a Deadman at the end of round one. He was so damn scared to stand with Pereira.
Which is a crying shame because Jan is a way better striker than he gets credit for and it would have been a way better fight without the useless grappling
@@nunyabizwacks6711nah Weasle has gone against the judges plenty of times - even fit fight where he disagreed with the majority of the MMA community like Ngannou vs Gane
Jan did nothing with the wrestling expect attempt two subs and almost got put in one of his own. He got no ground and pound and Alex was getting up from take downs after the first. Jan was gassed and doing no damage.
Great work weasle
The only post fight video ive been waiting for❤
I knew that if it was close that’s automatically a win for Alex- he’s younger & more popular. Jan is beloved by real fans, but casuals don’t care about him.
So just because you like Alex you are a casual? You sound like a democrat, setting imaginary boundaries.
I thought it was a robbery when I was watching live. I'm glad I was wrong because I was rooting for Pereira 💪🏽
Probably looked like that because jan rushed more in while alex was more patient
Nah, Jan looked super busy all fight but didn't really do much in the end.
Same. Didn’t realize how drastic the strike numbers were. Those leg kicks/body shots really added up and definitely did more damage than Jan.
I hate izzy but happy jan lost just with SD. Jan is a humble guy with no tattoos
Same. Round 3 was a no brainer to score for Alex watching live but I was under the impression that yan had won rounds 1 and 2. That’s why it felt out of place for me
high quality content bro
great video
Actually i think Jan did the mistake in the gameplan, and despite what he said in the interviews he didnt checked his standup game against alex, if he did it could go much different, but the grappling approach pretty much set up the rest of the fight
If he hadn't gone for takedowns he would have been knocked out and he knows it. He fought like a coward
@@blaze556922alex is a leg kick merchant
@@blaze556922 it doesnt matter, the most important thing is that you know it ;)
@@blaze556922
Get back on your short bus blaze, theres windows that need licking
@@blaze556922coward? Because he chose to attack his opponent's weakness? By this logic, Alex is a coward for not initiating grappling with Jan.
Also, Alex was unable to land anything damaging in the 2 rounds Jan stood with him and it was Alex limping around after the fight.
So Jan did check his striking against Alex.
Before watching the breakdown, rounds one and 2 were obvious but round 3 I gave to Alex watching live, Jan was competitive on the feet but I felt Pereira did way more damage, the takedown at the end had me worried incase the judges put too much value on it, didn't capitalise in any way so don't think it was enough to steal the round off Alex.
JAN WAS ROBBED EVERYONE KNOWS IT
100% agree
This is great discussion and awesome information and a lot I didn't know that goes into the judgment of a fight.
Great analysis my friend
If Jan could’ve maintained the same pace he started out the third round with throughout, I think he would’ve gotten the nod.
Not even close. 29-28 Pereira. Rounds 2 and 3 for Pereira, without question
It clearly was close that's why it's so controversial
"not even close" 🤡 gtfoh
Great analysis, I was salty all day about this call but slowly coming to my senses hahah
I have seen judges give fighters the round after getting out struck the entire round because of a worthless takedown in the last 30 seconds of a round (see Phil Davis' career for example). This was horse sh*t. Absolute robbery
exactly plus at the VERY least the striking was even, so Jan with the TD should have 100% secured him the win. If a man takes you down and u cant stop it, then you cant get up either, and your not atleast threatening subs or whatever, you are 100% losing that portion of the fight
I honestly thought weasel was gonna side with Jan 😂
I learned one thing during that fight. I dont care if it was effective grappling but i would definitely not want a guy like Jan on my back with a bodytriangle. Its one thing when smaller fighters like Islam, Charles or Aljo do it but having a light heavyweight take your back like that looked fking terrifying.
Yeah he's huge man.. and probably feels like a Boulder is on your back with power punches
pereira also strong asf
thank you weasel, fr thought i was going crazy
Damage > Anything
Alex is a better winner for the UFC as well, similar to O’malley v Yan since Yan did have some takedowns but with MINIMAL damage from them, and O’malley sells fights like Poatan sells fights from South Americans
Respect you brother for clearing this out!!
That round was way closer than I thought. I thought it was a clear win for Alex but it was close
These kind of videos take days for others to make, keep on givin Weasel
Right after this fight the first thing I thought was I can’t wait to see weasels breakdown because this thing was close!
Perreira took the third too easy. He knew he won beacause Jan was gassed, so he played it safe against a dangerous opponent. I think Poatan should have pushed in the third round more, stick and move for a clean win. Nonetheless Pereira looked perfect in the weight class, a new danger has arrived! Looking forward to the next fights!
Alex lost the third round.
@@joshuaprasad1392whatever makes you sleep at night
@@joshuaprasad1392no way brother only last seconds takedown with no damage or strike on opponent didn't won that round
True!!!!!!!
The judges got it right no way was it a robbery… you can’t just hold somebody down the last 40 seconds of the match and expect it to be a win
It was 50/50 on the feet + Jans takedown. Jan won let's be real but they want to push Pereira obviously because he is more entertaining
@@honkeykong1985 lol nah Jan got outboxed 2 and 3…the takedown did nothing…it was desperation knowing he could no longer fight standing …facts are facts and the better fighter won
Its a good breakdown until you say he lands 7 heal kicks from the bottom without showing it, and counting the leg kick as a heavy. And not giving any sort of consideration for a successful takedown and finishing the round on top. It was close enough in strikes that the successful take down and finishing on top should have edged it torwards jan.
Anyone else blow away by just how many strikes these big boys were throwing in the third, despite both clearly suffering from the altitude?
Close fight, but can’t complain with the result if it gives us Jiri vs Alex for the title. Then potentially we get a champ champ fight with him and Izzy at whatever weight class they want.
why not vs Ankalaev for the title?
@@NebeskiJerusalimbecause we don’t want to see wet blanketing

He’s a possibility, but I think UFC still angry with him after his last fight ended the way it did. Jiri also never lost the belt, so it would make sense to give him the shot.

@@burekskremicem😂😂
only a dumb would fight a striking game against alex peirera, i think he said that to surprise alex with his wrestling heavy gameplan
@@target-tk6vb Who was actually surprised?
Great breakdown mate
I think you'll find as long as he didnt get knocked out or submitted, Alex would have won regardless of how close the fight was. Light heacyweight has been f**ked since Jon Jones left. The UFC needs someone to promote and nobody in the top 5 has much of a fanbase, even Hill.
exactly. I think Jiri is their best shot at promoting but ofcourse hes been sidelined. I think Jiri will smash Alex tho
I rewatched that 3rd round many times. And even slow motion video breakdowns. Both Jan and Periera had 30 strikes all just pure stand up. Jan however had way more headstrikes. Even if Jan was tired he was still landing. So even in stand up Jan should have had the edge and that was before the takedown. That takedown at the end with Jan landing gnp should have at least sealed that round. And I watched this fight in silence without commentary and I thought this was what happened first time watching. Close striking numbers with Jan more headstrikes and Jan getting the takedown at the end. When I was reading people saying Alex was outstriking him in the 3rd, I was like wth are people even talking about. Then I listened to the commentary booth of UFC and Im like oh thats why. These guys just suck up to any Glory Kickboxer thinking just because the Glory Kickboxer is standing there eating shots and looking confident, hes winning the round just cuz the fights taking place standing? They even counted blocked/checked strikes as strikes for Alex. Horrid decision. Note to future kickboxers coming to UFC: just look confident standing, eat a bunch of head strikes and land some body jabs and leg kicks. You'll win the fight. The commentary will suck up to you as long as the fight stays standing. No matter who is landing, the commentary will automatically assume the kickboxer is winning a stand up battle. So glory kickboxers just need to have a good chin, take head punches, and just land some body strikes to win.
Exactly. Jan wasn't just ''avoiding'' the encounter by going on the ground, he litteraly came very close to actively submit Alex. Jan then managed to go through the whole third round on his feet, where a strong case can be made that he even outboxed Alex, at the very least that it was equal on that matter. Finally, I saw the last takedown as a sign coming from Jan that he was still in control of the situation, asserting dominance in order to cement a win.
You basically exposed yourself with your terrible headstrikes argument. Alex’s leg kicks and body shots clearly did more damage than Jan’s weak strikes to the head. Scoring is based on damage mate, and head strikes don’t automatically mean mor damage
@@gaiusx287 this if that lump on Jans leg was on his forehead none of these losers will say Jan won
@@gaiusx287 So I guess Alex beat Islam.
Hope to see a part 2 of this fight.
good review
Counting "heel kicks" on the ground for 7 points is BS.
I'm a big fan of Alex but he did not win this round based on damage.
counting the heel kicks to the leg while Alex is on his back is so fucking stupid as they do 0 damage.
I think there has to be some distinction between partially checked leg kicks and punches to the head,
This analysis is super flawed and doesn't give the full picture.
As always, great unbiased right down the middle breakdown, I felt like Alex could have done a bit more
So checked low kick is causing more damage than unchecked... m'kay...
And taking deep breath is a proof of great damage... In Salt Lake City.
Looks like you have some super power in your eyes.
Jan would’ve got the nod if he didn’t look so gassed, literally the only reason Alex won. I say Jan won the 1st round and barely won the 3rd
Agree with you.
For sure the body language
Nuh uh
I think him doing nothing with the 30 sec ground control also contributed to that. Under modern MMA rules, you Need to be active on the ground to get points for it. But one thing is for sure, this was not a robbery
Exactly
Ur smoking. You picked Pereira and it’s blinding you. Those combos landed by Jan in the 3rd round not being labeled medium and heavy, you wish. Pereira and Jan know who won that round. Jan’s boxing was better there plain and simple. Pereira had a couple good calf kicks and one good jab that round. Jan was putting together combos landed, and you’re just like not much damage Pereira’s moving and rolling. Come on bro. When you follow one good shot by another the strike feels heavier because you’re still thinking about the last one. Jan was tired but he was planted and he’s powerful. When he landed, it was not light by any measure.
Jan's strikes had little to no pop on them. He was so exhausted.
Nice breakdown
I hate fights like this, I’ve always rooted for Jan. This is his first fight where I’ve wanted him to lose. It sucks. So happy for Alex though
I thought Jan won to be honest. Utah was rough on the cardio. But im glad to see Perreira getting better in the grappling department. I like Perreira very much as everyone does. The way Jan gassed probably played against him in the eyes of the judges. But still if he was that gassed i would expect Perreira (a predator / hunter / finisher) to finish him. Jan kept Perreira honest. Jan had the most clear cut round (round 1). Finished on top. We know what Perreira’s striking can do damage wise but i didn’t see it in this fight. Not a robbery but i think way too many people are too confident in that Perreira performance seeing it as a clear win.
Jan won in my opinion without a doubt. All of a sudden having an almost closed choke isnt a submission attempt. Kutateladze had 1 submission attempt against gamrot, and he only put the leg on the back of his head.
The elbow that pereira throw in the third round is so underrated, that was a great shot.
Don't lie Weasle, u be streaming 😂
Of course he does that's how he gets the screen recording, or he uses ufc arabia by using a VPN to mask his location
Saying Pereira did more on the ground in the 3rd after the takedown by Jan because Pereira heeled Jan a few times in the thigh in quick succession is super sketchy. Considering the takedown was clearly the most notable bit of action in the 3rd it should have tipped the scale to Jan IMO. Regardless, good video as always.
That is exactly the problem. The takedown was no action at all. Making someone sit-down does no damage. People like you should never judge fights. You don't know what effective grappling is. A take down without damage is less than a jab
@@blaze556922that is not the point. How heeling someone in the tigh when you are on your back matters at all? That bit should not even be mentioned.
@@michaelkrzak5414I think it's just to put in perspective how there was no offense at all from Jan's side.
@@michaelkrzak5414 I couldn't believe that this guy really brought up heel kicks when I was watching it. lololol
Exactly. Not to mention that because of that very takedown, Jan ended the fight at the top/dominant position. In other words, Pereira was saved by the bell.
Just watched your breakdown of Jan v Ankalaev again. How can you give Ank a 10-8 in the 5th but not give Jan a 10-8 in this fight in the 1st? You showed text of the criteria for a 10-8 in that video and it looks to me like it would fit here. Jan had Peirera in much more dangerous position than Ank had him too.
Ankalaev nearly TKO’d Jan on the ground. Jan’s submission attempts weren’t that close. Alex also was credited for a submission attempt on top of it. That was in no way a 10-8.
I just rewatched R5 and at no point did Ank ''nearly tko'' Jan. Most of his shots were hitting the gloves and those that got through didn't do anything significant. At one point Rogan says ''Ankalaev could finish him here if he continues this barrage'' However, Ank did not continue said barrage and said barrage was all blocked anyway. Jan came closer to finishing Alex with a sub than Ank did with tko. That said, I did forget about Aex's sub attempt at the beginning. But I still think a discussion can be had for a 10-8.
the fact that Poatan displayed such beautiful defense in the choke realm just makes me giddy...... He is here......and he is learning.
Is this the scary 205 Pereira that was supposed to take Jan's head off? Body jabs and leg kicks only? I see a comment section relieved that Weasle judged it in Pereira's favour. Imo it's harder to land a takedown than to land that leg kick that ultimately "won" him the fight because Weasle decided it was partially a heavy strike.
Neither guy's performance was impressive in the end, but Jan definitely edged it.
Fights are not judged based on effort. Its about damage, effective striking and effective grappling. Alex edged it out in round 3 so he wins. Jan's atrocious gas tank cost him the fight.
Alex was literally a leg kick merchant this fight
Ankalaev would be a nightmare fight for Pereira
No he wouldnt. If Jan almost tko’d him with leg kicks, Alex will finish him easily
@@tigerslick1111 it would be different, he has experience from that type of fight now and believe would not make mistakes this time and won on the ground relative ease. Not only Ankalaev, guys like Rakic would do the same thing
@@NebeskiJerusalim Jan has double the take down accuracy of Magomed and all around better offensively.
Wtf how was this a robbery
With Jan winning 1 & 3
@@oscarbuglass4746 dude it's not a "robbery".. save that for fights that are scored incorrectly..this was a close fight, give it a rest 😂
@@Therealvaulterwhite I didn’t say it was I mean that is how it would be
As a fan of both boxing and mma yesterday was huge, Spence v Crawford and ufc 291. A day to be remembered
Alex won rounds 2 & 3. Close fight. I had Alex winning. Not a robbery.
Thanks for the breakdown. Watching the fight I was disappointed with Pereira's output in the 3rd because Jan was gassed and was there for the taking. At this point I'm a little bit more excited to see what Poatan can do in the division so good to see it was a fair decision.
Being waiting for that one.
Jan gets finished in a 5 round fight. Him being gassed that bad also has to sway the round even more towards Alex.
Alex's guillotine was closer to a finish in the first round.
Nah.. Jan even didn't feel the need to fight it .. just showed thumbs up to judge
Nah, Jan bullied him in the grappling exchanges.
