UFC 248: Adesanya/Romero/Zhang/Joanna |OT| #ZhangGang

[Conmex]

Horrific fight

 

[NinjaScooter]

3-1 Izzy. Yoel is playing himself.

 

[SnakeXs]

Hating Izzy for fighting smart. Ugh.

 

[BadAss2961]

Maybe he can...

How? He's literally not landing anything. lol

Izzy is landing leg and body kicks.

 

[Wamapoke]

Adesanya one round away from coming out of a Romero fight without any significant damage to himself. Should be applauded.

 

[Brinbe]

time to empty the tank

 

[fulltimepanda]

The last half of that round is probably what Izzy was expecting in the first.

 

[SnakeXs]

General note: commentary has been dreadful tonight. DC needs Dom to keep him in line.

 

[Conan]

Hating Izzy for fighting smart. Ugh.

When you talk a big game about how robert Whittaker went to decisions and that he was going to dismantle Romero in a round or two you kind of have to back it up.

[Syder]

Yoel's base is gone, legs are complete toast

 

[NinjaScooter]

Yoel is fighting like he owes money to the mob

 

[fulltimepanda]

man his leg is going purple.

 

[Deleted member 2533]

Like the last fight, hard to judge, but for the opposite reason.

 

[Zvonimir Boban]

Yoel has the first two rounds and Adesanya has 3 and 4 for me.

 

[Serene]

This is legit one of the worst title fights in a long time

Smart by Izzy, but doesn't change it being miserable to watch

 

[Instro]

I think it's a little easier to put Romero ahead, or say it's tied, than to put Adesanya ahead. And Romero is ahead in the 5th at this point for sure.

 

[Wamapoke]

49-46 Adesanya. Father time gets us all.

 

[NinjaScooter]

Not a great look for the guy you are hoping to be your future star, even if it's not all his fault.

 

[Formless61]

Comain no defensive responsibility

Main no offensive confidence

 

[onpoint]

Sure get fired up at the end.

Man I really don't enjoy Yoel.

 

[Brinbe]

close one

 

[Conmex]

Worst fight since maia/silva.

 

[Syder]

I don't envy the judges here

Neither Romero or Adesanya have played their part here, expecting the cards to read 3-2 in Adesanya's favour

Disappointing

 

[tophu]

LOL

 

[Zvonimir Boban]

This could be anything

 

[dem]

Yoel could easily take 125

 

[NinjaScooter]

Which was that Anderson Silva fight that was similarly terrible? Maia?

 

[Bad_Boy]

I got adesanya

 

[bsigg]

Well that was fucking weird

 

[Wunder]

yikes

 

[Deleted member 1476]

One of the worst title fights I've ever seen.

 

[canseesea]

First time all fight Romero wants to get confrontational is after the last bell rings

 

[NinjaScooter]

I have a hard time believing they're giving the challenger the belt on a performance like that. Izzy did the only significant damage. York's takedowns were nothing.

 

[fulltimepanda]

meh. Adesanya will get it. They were both waiting for the other to explode the entire time.

 

[ghostemoji]

Yoel waited for the last 5 seconds to get energized.

 

[Zaied]

DC is hilarious.

 

[ScaleboundGOTY]

Clown show from Yoel

 

[NinjaScooter]

He's 43 so he probably wasn't getting another chance anyway, but I doubt Dana let's Yoel ever sniff a title shot again.

 

[Kabuki Waq]

Can they both lose?

 

[Big Tent Expat]

trrbl

but expected for a Romero fight

 

[bsigg]

Thank God the rest of the card was incredible

 

[burialsociety]

They're both counter fighters who pack a lot of power. Plus Yoel has always been a low volume fighter for obvious reasons. Were people honestly expecting a stand n bang war?

 

[Brinbe]

lol yoel always brings the fuckery

izzy wasn't too impressive at all

 

[Latvian Hitman]

Which was that Anderson Silva fight that was similarly terrible? Maia?

Click to shrink...

Yep. Was just thinking about that one.

 

[Wunder]

give the belt to costa

 

[fulltimepanda]

Yoel looking disappointed. Man you can't play that game, especially if you're the challenger.

 

[Syder]

What a weird fucking fight, both fighters' stock drops here

Costa is going to be a huge problem for Izzy

 

[YaGaMi]

Costa will be the next champion.

 

[Zvonimir Boban]

If Romero had just given it a bit more in the last 60 seconds instead of clowning he'd be the champ right now
