What exactly did Izzy do to win the fight?
Izzy lost every round 7-10 he did nothing the entire fight than run away scared shitless after Romero concussed him in the very first round

like out struck him by double in 4 of the rounds whilst Romero stood still and did nothing whilst covering his face
Izzy is a great fighter, but i can't stand this guy.
48-47 Israel.
It's ok to be wrong, mate.
Yoel should try throwing punches next time.
Dude, Romero did fucking nothing. Stop acting like he deserved to win the MW belt after doing fucking nothing.
Fucking shameful performance from a challenger in possibly his last ever title fight. Fucking go for it. Don't cry after you do fucking nothing and expect to get the title from it and don't in the end.
And your dumb ass wonders why everyone thinks you're a joke, and no one takes you serious.
Conortards, ladies and gentlemen. The stupidity leaks.
What the fuck where you watching hahahahahaha
This match was nothing special, but I think Adesanya is the right winner. Yoel had to do more; he did barely nothing, only tried to land some bombs, but you can't win doing this.
If that fight went one more round Yoel would've finished Israel.
A few more of those leg kicks and Romero's movement would have been severely compromised IMO. His leg was barely working at the end of the fight.
All of this ^ is nonsense, because Reyes out-struck Jon Jones 3 out 5 rounds and still lost an unanimous decision.
People say that Yoel didn't do anything.
WRONG!
He effectively defended Israel's strikes, while landing the cleaner and more impactful blows. Yoel had Israel shook. At no point did Israel threaten Yoel. Yoel won the stand up.
Israel said he wasn't afraid to call out Yoel, but he was clearly scared to engage with him. Only securing points through front leg kicks, and on his bicycle. At no point did Israel have Yoel running away.
The commenting was biased as well, saying that Yoel didn't land the take down, when he did (I don't think the promotion even showed the replay), and Yoel was checking most of Israel's head and body kicks. Israel's greatest moments in the fight were leg kicks, and Joe was leaning hard into it trying to sell it.
Also, if Israel was so great, why didn't he go for a take down and try to finish him like a well rounded champ is supposed to...you know, attempt to beat the guy at his own game like a true champ?
Yoel fought as though he was already the champ, and showed that Israel couldn't take it from him. If that fight went one more round Yoel would've finished Israel.
