What was the drama Israel mentioned that he'd put up with? Just the Robert thing or was there more?
Mutant -Damn the fight sounded uneventful
it was funny but not much of a fight. silva lost for sure but i dont feel like adesanya really won
I enjoyed that fight, don't know what you guys are on about. It was fun to watch.
Anderson made me feel like the old days when he would fight. I wish he would’ve took more chances, I think he could’ve finished Israel if he would have.

Would have liked to see 2 more rounds.
Target_the_Gash -How is this not a 5 round fight? I thought it was mandatory for PPV main event slots.
Contract was signed for 3.
RockTheVote -nek -Good example of a "wrestler mentality" vs a "jiu jitsu mentality" with regard to staying on their back.
That guy didn't know jiu jitsu. I agree with what you're saying, just not that you think that guy showed any jiu jitsu. He was ass on the ground.
I'm not saying he showed jiu jitsu (a knee shield would've done wonders for him), but guys who started grappling with jiu jitsu vice wrestling tend to think either sweep or submission in those positions vice simply creating space and getting to the feet.

I wonder if he was trying to get the Kelvin fight last minute.
ChicagoTom -Israel is a little immature and kinda rubs me the wrong way.
Yeah but fight wise, he shows great fight maturity/IQ, that’s where it counts.

Anderson did take some risky chances when he chased Israel, something he never used to do. He did find some nice right hand counters but Israel is generally too smart to over extend and fall for Andreson’s tricks.
It was great to see 2 technical creative guys in that kind of striking match. You literally did not know what you were going to see…you def cannot say that about 90% of striking battles.

For someone that posts all day long you're clueless. You're one of the worst posters on this site.
I loved it. Wish we had 2more rounds.

Thanks.
Fucking idiot.
I enjoyed that fight but not as much as I enjoyed Ricky Simon's mullet.
That shit was glorious.

It was great. You will never get to 2 guys with that kind of technical creativity. I was on my toes, you don’t often feel that both guys can make anything happen in ways we don’t get to see.

why? main event on a ppv should be 5

Because they trained and signed for 3
It was a fun, good fight. But Silva just threw the towel in on the third round.

Probably downplaying his degree of exhaustion. He's 43.
Silva lost some steam when the right eye started swelling.
