Potan made a mistake, he was walking izzy down beating his leg to the poitn where he couldn't walk. Kneed him in the head then he got wild with his punches and got caught with teh same sequence he got hit with in the first mma fight.

Potan made a silly mistake and threw the fight. He is had stayed at range he would have beaten Israel he had the fight won.

He threw the fight. Super disappointed in Potan, why throw two stupid left hooks on a row with zero defence against a counter striker you were handily beating

Stupid. It's like saying Leon Edwards got lucky at UFC 278 since he had lost the previous 3 rounds before the knockout. Did Usman throw the fight?

Or like saying Poatan got lucky the last 2 fights since Izzy was winning until he lost.

Lucky and Fluke are words that should be banned on Sherdog until you kids learn how to use them correctly.
 
Alex got a little over aggressive and Adesanya capitalized.

Fourth times the charm.
 
He caught him in roughly the same space that he did in round 1 of the previous fight. Izzy wasn't able to get his leg kicks going in either fight. Last time he made the mistake of constantly disengaging when forced to the fence. This time, he pulled him in, and took advantage of some things that very few people on earth can take advantage of. Namely, odd hand positioning and a lack of dynamic head movement.

Izzy knows what range he can be effective against Poatan. Poatan's inhuman vision makes it impossible for Izzy to do that in the way that he normally would. He suckered him in instead. There's no luck to it. Absolutely flawless right hand, and not for the first time.
 
I found it all pretty anti-climatic tbh. The counter Izzy landed seemed so weak and Pereira seemed to roll with it and then some small touch and he was out lol. I don't know if the weight cut made him weak or sth, but that sh** was so soft. I expected a war, not this...
 
Watch it again. Alex tried to counter with a left hook when Izzy jabbed earlier in the round. Izzy jabbed later on and knew the left hook was coming so shortened his own right hook to come inside Alex's hook. It was actually pretty masterful, bait, lure out the counter and counter the counter.
 
Israel finally gets 1 win in 4 fights
