I watched the second fight already knowing the result of the fight. And I spent the whole fight waiting for Izzy to get starched mistiming or mismeasuring the lean back. But it wasnt that. He never got caught with that defensive move. And I dont recall it being a problem in MMA either. He was caught with left hooks counters in exchanges before the KO blow though. And Izzy doesnt just run from a fight. Corners or ropes werent a problem for Izzy. If anything Alex was put on the rope and cornered just as much as Izzy. I think there is this misconception that Alex is this indestructible power monster that stalked Izzy down and KOd him. But in reality, as you said, they really closely contested fights before the KO and Izzy himself stalked and hit and hurt Alex in the course of the two fights.
The guy is a peak human specimen, why would be ruin it with tattoos?
100 percent this
Izzy’s striking style has just been different in MMA. A lot of that is probably due to the wrestling threat, which will be nonexistent
Agreed, he’s been more tentative against guys who can take him down. He may open up more against Alex.
Ultimately it will probably come down to who is willing to do anything to win, and take it to the ground.
I guess he just doesn’t share your appreciation for the male specimen.
I wanna see izzy look up into the sky like usman.

I guarantee Pereira shoots for a takedown after training with Glover…

This. Regardless of whether he even needs to it’s just a sound strategy. Get him worried about a TD regardless if it’s a trip or whatever.
Anyone else feel like this might be a 5 round snoozer?
Either way, WAT Periera.
idk is it about abs muscle insertion or Pereira rly cuts a lot of fat? Izzy looks kinda fat compared to Pereira

No it’s that Izzy is still retaining water, Alex has zero left, he is killing himself to make the weight.
