GDT: UFC Fight Night: Adesanya vs. Imavov

[I am not exposed]

Izzy now lost 4 out of his last 5 fights.

Who would have guessed when he knocked out Pereira the direction their careers would go.

Wouldn’t be surprised if Izzy goes up to 205.

It didn't go well for him last time. If he's getting finished by 185 pounders, not going to be easier at 205.

Like Uncle Chael was saying the UFC is gonna be in a tough spot booking Izzy going forward. He’s one of the highest paid fighters in the company and he is beyond being able to headline PPV, or even being the A side of these bigger FNs

He’s still a pretty easy fight night A-side, he’s only lost to bonafide title contenders and we have Vettori still A-siding fight nights. He’s full on gatekeeper status though

This killed me lol

I think that was the final thing on his bucket list and he’s not as motivated since. He’s definitely getting older and can’t handle punishment the same way but we are also talking about a guy who got a DUI like a week and a half before the Strickland fight. Hearts just not in it anymore

The funny thing is he was beating DDP and won the 1st round over Imavov imo…his chin just can’t handle punishment these days and his will to win isn’t there.

Nurmagomedov-Lok Dog got FOTN

Grad and Imavov got POTN. Glad they rewarded Grad for taking on a guy who came in heavy and brutalizing him after losing the first round. He’s a dog. He’s also probably making 10k/10k so that will be useful
