But in the striking world, people definitely knew who he was. He was supremely talented and known for beatings 9 men in 3 nights.
In a total of 24 men bracket over 3 tournaments, he beat them all, and in a spectacular fashion.

Incredible video and editing as always. You showcased Adesanya's talents fantastically to people such as myself who don't follow professional kickboxing.
I see him getting through Whittaker but he wants to fight Bones Jones. He's never had to fight a 4" reach disadvantage and how's his defense against the eye poke? Hey LK whom do you like in a GSP vs Khabib?
unbelievable fighter does he fight muay thai ?
Kiwis knew
I loved watching Israel Adesanya's King in the ring matches a few months ago, in fact I've seen most of the fights he's been in, in this video
Shocked to see him in UFC, in a positive way
the fact that this guy is still fighting to this day in the ufc and is the middleweight champion of the world is a testament to how great Israel Adesanya truly is
What do you mean is still? he career is still in his prime.
@@warshawgameshd3432 Go fight as many grown men as he has and tell me you still wanna fight more lol
@@LaChrisNola Are you inferry Israel wants to retire?
@@warshawgameshd3432 are you incorrectly inferring that from his comment? He’s just saying Izzy has fought a ridiculous amount of people at the age he’s at.
@@yup4337 I asked the other guy what he meant by wow this guy is still fighting to this day, the other guy responded to me telling me to fight as many people he has, I thought they meant he should be retired, but Ia gree he is insane.
The last 2 decades has been an amazing time to be a fan combat sports. Seeing athletes from pinnacle of other disciplines compete against each other.
Absolutely amazing indeed
Excluding boxers. No disrespect to them.
Yea would really like to see a world class boxer train mma in there prime
@@andrewgiegerich523 That would be really good to see! But as long as top rated boxers get paid more than any other top rated combat athletes than I don't think there is a good likelihood of seeing that.
Golden age boxers (like Jack Dempsey) cross-trained with wrestling to help improve their overall physical condition and to help with inside fighting. Today, not too many boxers follow that tradition, but some still do--Lomachenko comes to mind in terms of being familiar with wrestling and grappling.
I would like to see a top rated boxer-puncher like a Joe Louis, dabble in MMA.
For me the biggest game-changer is the internet. When I was a kid, the most I could hope for was reading about a big fight in the newspapers or watching on the evening news. These days you've got an event every weekend and have a chance to step into the fighters' lives and training camps through youtube and such. It's really unprecedented.
PS. Speaking of which, the UFC have been on fire this summer. Fights every weeked and every single card has had at least a couple of interesting bouts. I feel spoiled!
This dude literally has ultra instinct.
*mastered
Hes long also
Noname shit starts to slow down when you are at the level he’s at. Clearly he knows the art of the feint or some ultra instinct shit we don’t know about
Fully agree
he is more aware than all his opponents, he baits your attacks faints throws you off then attacks you when your setting back up to check him
His greatest feat is that he's the rare breed of weebs that can actually kick our asses with the power God and Anime by his side.
Edit : the comments section is a mess.
just some guy nor do you! 🤦🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️😆
@@janapewhairangi4894 leave him alone, he didnt get the joke lol, guess he's a kid living under the rock
@just some guy naw, that's wrong
@@deshawncarlisle3840 lol
@just some guy I'm God so what does that say, I am omniscience incarnate. Pulling the celestial strings that bind your very consciousness. Show some respect my child
And some say he has changed when he has always been himself.
Titan Guner second best comment I’ve heard
ALWAYS!!!
Yeah, he's always been an insecure douchebag with a massive ego.
@@mayiplantthishere2676 we're talking about Adesanya not Jones,.., did you even watch the vid?
@@mayiplantthishere2676 hmm insecure. Someone who beats people up for a living, or someone who hates behind a screen? I'll let you figure that one out.
Who is here after Adesanya vs Costa?
Can't believe it. This guy's a monster
Check
Damn! 🎇😂
I told all the haters that the reason why they hate is 100% because they are stupid, I am so tired of attention-seeking stupid people online. Isreal is like an intelligent person with very high fighting skills.
Lol Lawrence Kenshin called his rise before everyone knew who he was. Lawrence Kenshin has been a king to fight analysis
Mate if you lived in NZ and paid attention to the local fight scene, we all saw this coming.
What were they saying about him
So many amazing fighters coming from NZ, I want to get out of Brazil and train there
@Alonso Don your mum does
@@joatanpereira4272 so many amazing fighters from Brazil too, probably more than NZ
It’s funny to think that in the UFC he’s seen a real showman but watching this shows you thats Adesanya restraining himself
I think ego maniacs confuse his confidence with their own ego. He's just telling us he's got full 100% belief in his skills. I don't get when people say he's full of himself, so do you want to see a fighter in a cage that doesn't believe in himself? I think he's gonna beat Whitaker, either by Decision or TKO.
Exactly! People so so dumb and insecure themselves they think it’s cool to hate
Confused it with ego myself but damn congrats to him. I’ve been raving to my friends about him but didn’t give Whitaker the doubt it of respect. Izzy is a great. Bulking up as well on muscle lately
@MrDee You said the future 😂
Bruh you predicted it ❤️
Hmmmm ...... you predicted the fight. Respect. Truth be told, I was worried but was hoping. I shed a tear when I saw his family in the ring after the fight.
Anyone who has actually trained boxing or kickboxing would know his potential.
he started at 18
actually he did not fight in top level kickboxing
@@hichamcasawi5131 thats not true he has fought at the top level of kickboxing.maybe you should do your research before you talk out your ass 😒😒😒😒
@@hichamcasawi5131 you talking utter bullshit broski. Izzy has been the top kick boxer in the world for years before going to MMA
Vitali Klitschko
Izy will expose Paulo and show the levels that exist
This comment aged well
That he did
great call lol
mmm like a fine wine. aged very well
The only thing he exposed was himself and his tit.. U fools he is pushed there are better fighters especially if they dope in this vid we see 2 tournaments maybe three different hairstyles. As for the fighter he is not something special end of story
4:09 This dude is on a whole nother level
Adesanya is the best striker in the ufc and everyone who’s doubting him will find out Saturday night
@GHANA LEAKS They certainly found out & still doubt him......Till, Costa, Gastulum 2.0, Yoel all loading & it will all end badly for them.
Luke SD well... you were right lol
0:11
Thanks to him i won 1000 euro in bet
@@MW3laforce how much do you bet to get €1000 ?
BOOM he’s a UFC CHAMPION NOW, TODAY!!!!
AND STILL UNDISPUTED....
So he grew a full head of hair in the space of 3 days. Man he can do everything.
Nigel Smyth haha I noticed that also. Maybe dude edited the videos backwards and the hair clips shoulda been first idk
Yeah I was about to say lol
Or if you know king in the ring it's usually 1 night so maybe jusssssst maybe this is 3 separate occasions over 3 years...
TheRelenquished it is lol
didnt you read at the start its 3 tournaments
4:10 One of the greatest kicks of all time.
C J if you were born yesterday 😁
@C J Have a look at a Mirko Crocop highlight reel to see some kicks people don't get back up from.
@@kelainefes who's the middle weight champion? I'll wait
@@Ace-mw9pm I love how Petrosyan fights, he is amazing and IMHO one of the top 10 strikers of all time.
I just wanted to say that he is not the one-hit-KO type, that's all.
He wins in dominating fashion most of the time, his form, reaction time, focus and tactics are all amazing, and most of all I can't really see openings sitting here in my chair, makes me kinda feel sorry for his opponents.
He did a lot more impressive kicks in this video.
Robert tried to stand with this guy😭
Idk why they thought it was a good plan to strike with Adensanya. His wrestling would have been the safer bet.
@@SpiritShinobi Same reason Gastelum didn't wrestle him - he stuffs takedowns like it's nothing.
@@TeensyTea Kelvin was too small anyways. Jon Jones is much bigger and stronger in person and his wrestling is 15 years beyond Adensanya's level of takedown defence. Jones can pull a easy Khabib style win. No one can save Adensanya from that...
@@SpiritShinobi Can he at 185 though? He'll be drained as hell dude.
@@dailyelevation2813 Adensanya said it himself he was moving up and called out Jones. Jones would never go down in weightclass he rather go to Heavyweight
I just love him since his first fight. He is just unique in every dimension.
Its his TIMING that makes him so deadly!
Idk man I'm just so happy for him. Watching him fight makes me smile. And seeing the crowds reactions is awesome.
Same here my full support for this guy
He looks cocky and all, but its all for the show, he has gained my respect through the years
@@Boredtube2024 he doesn´t give a single fxck about your respect whatsoever
Besides his great fighting IQ, the man has spider-arms and legs! Look at the length of those limbs! I guess that's one of the main reasons he can pull off this style of fighting.
Super long helps indeed
Same as Jon Jones and Anderson Silva. They all have similar builds and smashed pretty much everyone
kettlebells 123456 It will take a lot more winning to get to those guys level. With Jones and Silva you have damn near perfect fighters in terms of skillset and creativity. Jon Jones has virtually no weaknesses.
@@TomCL-vb6xc apart from doping tests haha. But yeah Jon Jones is the modern day goat.
@@kettlebells-ez9xi it's all that cocaine he snorts lmaoo
When you have that level of natural talent he's probably had a lifetime, previous to competing, of listening to small time know it alls telling him how he's "..doing it wrong"
hahah even after bro
@@LawrenceKenshin sad but true, even after
sometimes doubt is the greatest motivator
its hard to understand your english
Rustedblade wow so rude. im trying to understand because english is not my native language.
And people think Costa can defeat him 😂
Costa has a chance. A slim chance
@@rex9288 Any decent striker with knockout power has a chance but against someone as quick and naturally talented like Adseneya it's a super small chance. This is what Andersen Silva would have looked like if he tried fighting and stopped showboating so much. This kid will be on top till he retires is my guess.
skinnyWHITEguy M you're writing off Costa too easily. In MMA Costa is also a hell of a striker while he may not be a championship striker. The dude has an amazing switch kick to the body and he will target Izzy's body which not many have.
Yeah people shouldn’t underestimate Costa. He’s a machine. I really hope Izzy wins tho.
He’s not wrong 😭
This, along with the Glitch In The Matrix short film, has given me a much greater appreciation for Adesanya, this guy is amazing.
I loved watching to rise of Adesanya , win or lose, he is going to be an influential character in martial arts history
@M B With the amount of pro fights he has had, you're bound to get caught.
@M B fuck off. Israel Adesanya inspires makes an impact. Few UFC fighters would do that. That's why win or lose he would stay longer in the books
HE DID IT
@@brokennative1784 u mean like Donald cerrone, max hallaway, nate diaz, Nick diaz, khabib, John Jones, George St Pierre ,Michael bisping u know people he hasn't fought because he knows it's bye bye time when he does all these fighters are a bigger influence have bigger impact and have inspired loads even conner McGregor has inspired more people then israil and was the face of the ufc so yh only a few fighters try roughly nearly every fighter in there own respective weight class and by ur name shows ur a israil fan boy showing ur just biased or a casual
@M B why you gotta be corny? Pereira wouldn’t be able to beat Izzy if they fought again anyways. Izzy was too cocky in that fight and it took him out of his element. I’m not taking away the loss, but when Izzy is composed, he’s a monster
This is insane too know about Israel he's an amazing athlete.
Hes all hype. Trying to replace Anderson. But I aint buying.
@@friendly1870 your an idiot my friend he beat Anderson while being nice to him lmao Israel could of smashed him but he respected him too much now hes a great fighter but him sayung he can take Jon is a long shot jones would smash israel
@@friendly1870 Are you buying it now??
@@420Logic he couldnt even handle that old man you mean.
@@obafemiolusanya6365 pfft why would i? whittaker was just another hype job. call me when israel has 10 title defenses in a row.😙
He still has heaps of moves he hasn't even show cased in the UFC yet. I guess it's too early to get fancy.
Hed get taken down or get hugged on
THIS IS INSANE. NO ONE IN THE UFC WILL BEAT HIM STRIKING.
Polish lowkey stood toe to toe but in kickboxing tho.... He might beat him
@Hephaestus very true.... But every opponent that izzy was defeated against, he defeated them in the rematch. The ones he fought at least. Alex was the only one he lost to twice but the second time was very much robbed from izzy tbh. So I'm sure he could beat jan in the rematch if it was in kickboxing..... In mma tho..... Hard bargain
@P Ht he never got knocked out in the rematch with Alex 🤨 better check again
@P Ht did I not say that izzy lost to him twice? Yes he got knocked in the first match and yes he lost the rematch but whole entire fight was izzys fight and he should've won. If he wasnt elite he wouldn't have a very good record like he did. You can say most of his fights were bums but what about the ones others that weren't?
And also what about my reply time? How is it suspect?
@P Ht 1. The edit was a long time ago. Way. Before you showed up.
2. I said the thing about the knockout in the rematch because I thought you said he got knocked in the first fight AND the rematch.
3. I find it adorable how when you see the edited part next to a comment you think it has something to do with you and it boost yourself up. Guess we fount the true insecure one.
Who is here after adesanya vs Whitaker.
Ur mom
@@poorcolonykid9367 Are you 10? That was the least funny mum joke ever attempted
@@willchongwei I disagree, his "Ur mom" was a good 7/10.
Him vs jon jones will test both of them
casuals
I remember watching one of these, I was in awe because he barely got touched the whole night. He was miles ahead of the other fighters
"All about Mindset, Beleive what you wanna do, and you can do it. I promise" powerful
Who’s here after he dominated Costa?
Lmao costa thought he could beat that jeez
so excited to see him vs whittaker. it's gonna be a war
A super war
Steve Legend he's way above kelvin, he's not going to be the goat in mma, he's going to crash hard, bobby knuckles is fixing to put a big stop to his run in the UFC,
@@killagill5774 annnd The Haters Come...
What 'war'... The student (Robert) is welcomed in class, the lecture is ready
@@LawrenceKenshin Whitaker is just so tough; he showed incredible heart and determination in his first fight vs Romero, when Romero looked almost unbeatable, and with a damaged knee from round 1! I just can't see Adesanya getting past him.
He is not "Bruce Lee" he is not "Muhammad Ali" he is *Israel Adesanya* a pur talent.
When you have see this, i wish your family and you all the best!
Best Greets Klaus/Trialkings
The man's a warrior. Highest form of athlete
Being from NZ and watching all his fights leading up to UFC we are so proud yet not suprised of Izzy. We all saw this coming
His a Nigerian and represent his Country even in the UFC. I never seen him representing NZ in all his fight in the UFC... so fk off
@@gospeljrnwoha9448 he represents both chill
@@maxb294 he doesnt anymore in the UFC Go Check it out yourself
@@gospeljrnwoha9448 Yea cause the new Zealanders were so racist towards Adesanya especially in the Whittaker fight
@@TBE99 anyways NZ are irrelevant in Sports and World Economices and beside Isreal was kind to help them to be relevant in Kick Boxing but not anymore cause he is not one of them. That's why he dumped them in the UFC and now represent his true Origin
This is a man in the zone
Long arms and legs fits perfectly to his style of fighting.
4:36 looks like Adam sandler
I love Adesanya. He is living an anime in the ring and he loves every minute of it the man is a beast
He has mayweather like awareness. His ability to be so calm and read his opponents striking is literally matrix like and second to none in mma today.
The seventh opponent was throwing some super bombs, shows how much attention he’s constantly paying and was always out of the reach of them all 🔥 gunna be a war this Sunday
Watching this as he prepares to take on Jan this weekend. Beast and a monster slayer!
OMG Adesanya is just beautiful to watch. His fights look choreographed like movie fight scenes!!!
0:41 what a false sense of security he gave that dude for a split second
roy jones is one of the masters of it.
I love his reaction after that. Just another day at the office 😌
The skill of the man.
Unlocking that seal ay Mr the Last Style Bender. I been watching you since waaaày back since Rotorua days..
Proud of you neph
You will retire undefeated and become the Greatest of All Time.
This guy is a legend because he us a real life anime character/ninja/warrior and champion he knocks people out with moves straight of s movie with style. Real deal one of a kind
He is on another level I can see Hollywood making a movie about him.
Yes! Been watching Izzy for years. One of the most skilled strikers I’ve ever seen. Whitaker’s done!
Bet ur money then lol. No ground game at all
@Mike James Kelvin has better footwork than Rob
Super Koba sooooo what were you saying???
Mike James Yeah he should have not tried to stand with Izzy
Mike James yeah man it’s hard to give these big jacked dudes the benefit of the doubt. His physique definitely dose not look natural. Don’t like bullies either so I’m definitely pulling for Izzy on that one.
I'm a new fan of his, I like this man's attitude. He's from an affluent family, he didn't have to, but he does this because he loves fighting. Good luck Israel, kick some Whittaker butt!
Yea people need to watch this to understand his greatness. Fans in the UFC tear you down after 1 loss like it’s a sin to lose.
The Last Stylebender.........greatest name in MMA
You’re the first one that brought him to my attention before he was in UFC
Wa seere omo iyami, nice one bro we all love you, thank you for lifting the flag 🇳🇬
Yes oo
...Representing!!
When Raw talent and Hardowrk are out together. This is the result #Adesanya💕👌🏿🐃
Izzy is getting the title this weekend!
MMA is a different ball game... I highly doubt that Israel could surpass Robert
Rob gonna smash izzy
@@hellboytm5006 You'll see.
@NoPain NoGain Never!
Izzy by upset
Holy shit !! This motivates me for training !! Thx mate, today I'll train like a maniac. Cheers from Europe!!
Nice Ivan!

The art of War: All warfare is based on deception.
You know why he's so successful in his line of work?
Simple, when I watch this man fight he's not fighting he's having fun.he plays with his opponent's.. He's relaxed +he's a great fighter with high IQ!
He truly is one of the greatest..
He own the moments
You cant beat somebody thay enjoy the game
Like Ali
This is it, this is the guy, he is the goat... thisnis as real as it gets....
.
And its mind blowing !
That kick knockout Damn Izzy always been good he’s so smart
You🤡newbs know NOTHING about boxing/striking/fighting
You have no idea what you're taking about
You dont have a pass from me to ever talk about striking
Its the Eugene school of "feint just to fient with no purpose, do nothing, & if they do nothing back,kick the legs for points"
AWFUL style & Izzy is the full embodiment of it
Adesanya=1 of the worst strikers
He fients just to fient(no rhyme purpose or reason)
I always say,establish threats off your feint
Get into position with rhythm/leans,&shoot off your fienting(suprise/establish threat)
Where was Izzy's "fight IQ" against Romero
Didnt know how to gain respect, establish a threat & feint with that threat to open up/or get reactions without feinting
Low IQ
All he can do is counter karate fighters who lunge in like Whittaker
Costa is more skilled & cleaner, I can help Costa win the rematch. I did a ton of breakdowns on it.
There are unranked bantamweights who are far far more skilled then the likes of Izzy.
My breakdowns are the best on the internet. Nobody is on my level, nobody!
Quiet🤡clown, educate yourself.

"When your opponents expand, you contract, when they contract, you expand"
what if both contract, and when you expand they expand, etc. 😂
Then somebody is going to get a hurt. 😆
Thanks bruce lee
Hope he wins the title so we can see more frequent middleweight title fights.
I mean if he is fighting Romero don't bank on it
I hope he loses so we have someone like whitaker representing the sport instead of this showboaty douchebag. Hopefully a loss or two will humble this guy
As if. He dodged all the tough match-ups on his way to the top. If he ever won, THAT alone suggests he'd do the same as champ.
@@zzz7zzz9 i agree that his opposition wasn't that impressive besides gastelum but who did he dodge? just curious. it's probably more a case of being granted passage by the UFC because he's very marketable.

Israel is on the way of becoming a legend!!!❤️
No lie, i wanna see Izzy vs Jones, especially after seeing how beatable Jones is after that Reyes fight.
But Jones is still unbeaten lol.
@@datboi_leroy313 jon is fading
Is he fading, is his weight class starting to catch up with him because everybody is versatile now, is he past his peak? Jones has become a boring fighter but I honestly think he's one of the rare breeds that's gonna go out on top. Unless he goes up.
@@datboi_leroy313 That's what happens when you stop taking steroids.
@@MrGreFunky bro it was a pico gram. Do you know the size of a pico gram?? And it was only in his system because he took some generic viagra. The shit they found in his system wasn't even listed in the ingredients. They only gave him a harsh suspension because he didn't tell them he took anything new. Watch the podcast with him and Joe rogan.
Izzy is insanely talented. No denying that.
This video is awesome in the literal sense! Love it! Great work!
It’s crazy to think Izzy is gonna be a coach for the ultimate fighter
Tbh I was rooting for robert but after this video I changed my mind
😂
😂
Isareal Adesanya you are the best fighter I ever watched and liked the style
Alex pereira 2 nil
Andrew Chilvers Even Alex has been knocked out before in kickboxing and choked out in MMA . Currently no one is undefeated in kick boxing by the way . Maybe Alex should jump into the UFC .
@@KhariConception but he is unbeaten against Adesanya who like all elusive fighters is chinny and will get Rouseyed by Costa.
@@KhariConception actually I am 5 and 0
Andrew Chilvers
So Costa is the best fighter in the division because Izzy beat Rob? I’m guessing Costa is all of a sudden your favorite fighter now and your “hype job” ending hope. Alex was also knocked out by a kick boxer a weight class below him. Would you say that 2 and half years later, Alex isn’t better then the guy that knocked him out after learning and growing? By your logic, Alex isn’t better then Artur.
Lastly, go tell 5 people that cares.
Really good vid. Love the music, and appreciate the text along the way.
At this point in time and decade, no one can beat Adesanya.
Costa can for sure, his pressure is crazy
woww i never saw adesanya like this he really is a great fighter i never will underestimate him again after this,he will beat withaker on satherday i,m sure now thank you for this amazing tape lawrence your a great fighter aswell i saw alot of you ush.
That broken rhythm is real he’s very hard to predict because he’s just like water just flowing freestyle
The head kick @3:00 very nicely timed he knew the other fighter would move into it
Yea that was a gnarly kick lol that landed pretty cleanly
9 fights in 3 nights.
LEGEND.
He reminds me of Anderson Silva in his early years.
Deep respect towards Mr. Silva, but Adesanya is on another level, the dude is way ahead of his time.
Matej Miovski prime silva was something else and even at age 44 he put a decent showing against the young phenom adesanya.
@@matejott silva started his prime run over a decade ago, comparing the two skillwise is dumb
@@KrikZ32 Yeah skill wise comparing them is dumb cuz Silva obviously has better ground game but age wise that started as a champ they're the same
@@JoShiestyy izzy has better ground game and take down defense than silva by far. He beats silva in every way.
4:09 jesus christ man
Some jetli type shit
This guy is amazing. Favorite fighter by far
the first time i saw Adesanya fight i was an instant fan, when i heard he liked anime even bigger fan, when i saw him do the chidori with perfect hand signs i realized we are in his anime and im just an npc
Which really makes you wonder: just how good is Kevin Gastelum
Makes you wonder: fuck off he got knocked down the most times in a fight 😂
mpforeverunlimited Kelvin would sleep anyone in this tournament in under a round, its all fat journeymen
Gastelum is 5'9 wrestling based fighther who did better than all of these kickboxing champions and landed a knockdown on izzy, don't disrespect man
Lol Kelvin just gassed because he was over extending a lot
Izzys movement and range helped cause this but Kelvin was also landing a lot if he had kicks in his Arsenal he could have won that fight
It was a close fight idk why so many mma fans think every fight is completely one sided
@@andrewgiegerich523 "if he had kicks" He kicked adesanya in the head.
Saw the notification and decided this was more important than my essay due in 4 hours. I wasn't dissappointed. I really can't get enough of these analysis videos. By the way how do you think Whittaker vs Adesanya is going to go down?
Thank you bro! This was more of a feature, the true analysis comes soon.
I just think it’s going to be a war and the popcorns will be readyb
And I was just calling Adesanya another hype train w me m8s at the pub last night predicting Whittaker will win. Now, I feel like an idiot. iHad no idea he’s been that unstoppable! I’d tell Whittaker definitely take him down. Made me a fan of both guys. Nice vid👊
Rich Kid problem is when you take him down he’s got amazing bjj and ability to escape from the bottom. Watch some of the Gastulum fight for that. As well as defense against wrestling as displayed in the Brunson fight. He is the real deal.
Rich Kid lots of people have no idea he has over 100 fights lol he's as experienced as they come!
@@TheKoog97 Whittaker ain't no joke either. Saturday can't come soon enough it's gonna be a barn burner for sure!
Man i love this guy 😂
HE IS THE BEST STRIKING I´VE SEE IN MY LIFE !
I've always just loved the way he feints and make his opponent look easy, really inspiring to watch
When he wins on the weekend i'm going to be collecting money! 😂😂
risky bet
Risky bet from my side as well
Nice to know whos money ill be taking after whittakers win
@@jannplanken yeah bruv iced cube's hahahahha
Nope. Your gonna give some of your money betting on overrated bum. You still have time to change your mind
Seeing these past fights you know he will transition to heavy weight smoothly.
All I can say is WOW 🤩
2:10 rare to see a fighter give a referee props for stopping the fight.
The subtle glove touch to the side of the ref said it all: humility at its finest.
