Nah Izzy has enough power. His timing was off though.
Strickland can be awkward. It could’ve been that, maybe the punch at the end of the first rocked him more than it looked, or maybe something else was wrong? Who knows. He barely got any combos off, lots of single strikes
Opens up the division though. There’s several fighters I think are better than Strickland. Does Pereira come back down?
Yeah that might be the case but from what he had done previously I knew he was no chance to knock him out.

Strickland dominated
He’s far better than many are giving him credit for
Made Izzy look like the challenger
Great game plan, great discipline

Still The Greatest Show in Town

Brilliant debut from Dos Santos

Enjoyable card and a couple of pretty awesome finishes for Pedro and Tafa.
First of the co-main events went as expected.
The second...wow. Strickland came in with a plan and executed it so well. Simply outboxed Izzy. That jab got through so consistently. Brilliant.

Been a great series

Costa could be out too

Confirmed that Costa is out too
Usman v Chimaev is the co-main now
I'm actually more interested in the replacement fights than the original ones
-
Fingers crossed the call ups do the job
-
Magomedov comes in with a lot of hype
Be interesting to see how he goes
Elliott v Makaev should be fun
Just can’t warm to Ankalaev

Unfortunately not.
Probably a tactical error from Volk? He would’ve got the rematch eventually but being a two division champ looks unlikely now. Credit for taking the risk and saving the card.
Usman did better than I expected. I see Khamzat thinks he broke his hand though
The Walker fight was a circus. I guess they need a translator to come into the octagon with the doctor now
