Watching Alex KO Jamahal Hill makes you appreciate just how good Izzy is.

The striking from both guys is just so crisp and so perfect. Two guys who have truly mastered their craft.

KO of the year without question. One of the best KOs ever. Mad respect to Izzy for finally getting it done and to Alex for being such a beast.

If these guys ever run it back, it'll be the best trilogy in mma history

I found both fights to be very interesting. Izzy controlled most of the first fight just to get knocked out. Alex controlled most of the second fight and got knocked out. I think in both their losses they got too comfortable in letting it fly and it cost them both.

say whatever you want about izzy after the strickland loss, but he is still one of the best fighters to ever touchdown in the UFC

The whole 30 seconds from Alex backing up Izzy and landed a combo, to Izzy landed the counter and then kill shot, Anik saying “order restored” Joe screaming “oh ohhh ohhh oh” Izzy shooting the arrows and breaking the bow to fish flopping Alex’s kid is arguably the greatest 30 seconds in ufc history 😅

Came back to rewatched this masterpiece. This was an elite chess match between two of the best strikers in the UfC Edit: Thanks guys it's my first time getting 1k like on a post. 🙌🏾🙌🏾

who here after Alex vs Jamahal?

This felt so good as an Izzy fan.

Даже в нокаут, Переира падает каменным лицом😂

One thing that impressed me about this fight is how cognizant Izzy was in regards to the leg kicks. DC and Joe Rogan kept mentioning it, and Izzy was constantly switching his stance to distribute how much damage he was taking to each calf.

Ithink with the matches we've seen Alex pereira knocking out people cold, it makes us realize how powerful the last style bender is?

You have to give Izzy extra credit. Pereira literally walks around at 220-225, and they said after cutting weight, he's probably 210-215 on fight night. So he's almost a full weight class heavier than Izzy.

Эмоции Перейра: Радость - 😐 Грусть - 😐 Удивление - 😐 Сопереживание -😐 Ненависть - 😐 Испуг - 😐 Мне кажется он Бэтмен от Бразилии

As a huge ufc fan and izzy fan being from nz, this was my favourite ever moment watching ufc! goosebumps!!

If you really know what you're looking at, these two rounds was an absolute chess match. Every movement made by the two fighters, every feint every switch, measuring, calculating, one wrong move, and Izzy shut the lights out

Pereira is one hell of a fighter though. I've never seen such a dominate force on the cage that rivals boxer Deontay Wilder. Just when Adesanya thought he was champ, he found a new hill to climb. Respect to the both of them

Elite level striking from elite level athletes...could watch these two fight all the time

Watching Izzy fight him compared to the others on the roster really is a testament to how much better Izzy is than the competition. Izzy and Alex are on another level.

Izzy’s beef with Alex’s kid is so funny to me😂😂

Izzy fr was picking Alex apart in the first half of the second round from southpaw with really nice body kicks and low kicks from that stance , Alex did rock Izzy before the counter right hand Not a fan of Izzy but his striking always matched up well against Alex and their fights are always entertaining

Эпичный нокаут! Будто всего себя вложил в этот добивающий нокаут и выбил душу как в Mortal Combat

Me imagino cuantas horas y horas estudió al rival. Notable, Adesanya.

Alex was in advantage. Alex overcommited.. and izzy landed a big right hand...

Rogan: Again, Pereira's so dangerous DC: Oh my goodness Anik: OOHHH! COUNTER RIGHT FROM ADESANYA! PEREIRA DOWN AND OUT! ORDER RESTORED! DC: He got him bad! Rogan: OUT COLD! Anik: Israel Adesanya can finally lay claim to a win over Alex Pereira who's out cold!

I truly think Alex was about to finish Izzy here, that wasn't playing possum. But Izzy just cocked, locked, and loaded one of the most epic counter rights in the history of MMA.

As soon as Rogan said “Izzy has to control these exchanges” it’s like Izzy heard him because he start pushing the pace and causing Alex to fight off his back foot

Adesanya se preparou muito, estava mais concentrado, isso mostra o nivel da qualidade de sua luta, pereira é meu lutador favorito mas tenho que dizer sobre izzy foi extremamente eficaz.

Речь Адесаньи после боя очень сильно мотивирует 💪👍✊

Izzy 1 of the most complete and versatile fighter, with all the tools in the box

After this fight, Adesanya was never the same. Feels like he gave it all to this fight. He was not mentally in it after this fight.

Перейра талантливый и физический одаренный спортсмен с пушечным ударом , но Адесанья быстрее , техничнее , пластичнее , креативнее и бойцовское QI у него выше

Its one of the most beautiful KO'S in UFC history tbh

Seeing this and knowing how well Izzy was doing til it ended the first just shows how good he is after seeing Alex's recent success. Yes, I know is down overall but still.

Unbelievable what a performance by izzy

Трилогия однозначно нужна

This is my Champion 🏆 always...pure technic 👌 and timing ❤

6:54 the right across the body from izzy was pure perfection ✨ alex had some good ones too 🔥🔥🔥

Man hat gesehen das pereira sich zu sicher war am Ende, niemals den Gegner unterschätzen und die Deckung unten lassen. Guter Kampf

Aged like fine wine

One of the best if he not the best fight ever for me

One pummel hit. Respect! That was crazy. I thought Alex was gonna get him with that last combo that looked so good.

I would have love to see Alex vs adesanya 3 at ufc 300.

Honestly i think this is one of the most amqzing things to happen in all if sports. Izzy wasnt just fighting the ridiculous periera that night, he was fighring his own mind. Imagine the negative thought thwt must have brewed in his head at the potientiql of losing ro this guy for the 4th time. Whqt that would mean to his legacy. Not only die he win but he won in the most spectscular way imaginable. Th3 kicker for me tho was this mf was playing chess out there. He baited the absolute shit out of peirera and pereira fell for it.

What Izzy did with the arrow 🏹 celebration immediately after knocking Alex out was absolutely brilliant 👏 He took Alex's arrow thing and turned it around on him. Nobody entertains and does the things Izzy does to promote a fight, his celebrations, his entrances and his dominating fighting like Izzy. Love him or hate him, Izzy brings everything to the table at the most elite level.

4 fights between 2 high caliber fighters, for me there are still many things to debate about who is the better fighter between the 2, both of them have amazing skills. you can't deny any of them, yes Alex won 3 fights out of 4 but none of these fights were easy for him, and they were not easy for Israel either. Props to both of them for offering us such an amazing spectacle

Big fan of both fighters. Top 10 knockouts of all time

Спасибо большое я давно просил этот бой чтоб вы выложили ❤

2 of my favorite fighters

Even tho I really wanted Pereira to win this one, this fight is so entertaining, watching these two fight is like watching a fight scene straight from a martial arts movie

I screamed my lungs out this night🤯🤯🤯

Перейра после боя сказал что это Израэль был потрясен и чудом нокаутировал его Но Адесанья не врал когда говорил что это была заготовка. Внимательно смотрите, Адесанья почти всё время в стойке левши, перед нокаутом он меняет стойку на правшу, Перейра бросает лоу кик и Адесанья показывает что его этот лоу-кик подбил, перейра сразу начинает пресследовать его. Но при этом Адесанья не меняет стойку и снова подставляет ногу под лоу-кик, Перейра снову бьет лоу-кик и думает что потряс Изи. Изи прижимается к клетке и через блок видит что Перейра сразу набрасывается с не прикрытой рукой. Бум правая залетает. весь бой Изи кидает эту правую через руку Перейры, прощупывает

“Order restored” - chills

8th April 2024bi am here for the 8th time.Much love from Kenya to these two athletes/entertainers.

If the world's most perfect Kickboxer existed it would be a mix of Alex and Israel. They are so closely matched and alex has the power advantage(because of size) while Izzy has the skill advantage. If they fiight to 10 times i have no doubt they would be 5-5 or 6-4 against each other

Поспешил конечно Перейра, нужно было потихоньку отбивать ногу, корпус и забирать раунды, а нокаут в чемпионских раундах был уже формальностью. P.S. Да, мне с дивана виднее)

Welldone to izzy for finally beating his arc nemsis once. Its 1-1 in MMA so hopefully we will get a trilogy match to finish it all.

The two fights really perfectly demonstrate the skill sets and incredible weapons both guys possess. Pereira with his imposing stature stalking Izzy down with the heavy leg kicks and keeping him on the back foot with his thudding strikes. The volume and pressure eventually leading to the first KO. Then Izzy, always a threat with his outstanding movement and timing, even when under extreme pressure, he finds a hole and snipes Alex for the second KO. Alex could easily have won that second fight with a fraction more caution in those final exchanges, but just the same, if there were another 10-20 seconds in the first round of the first fight, Izzy would have got the job done. Very fine margins.

Man, Izzy didn’t even hit him with the 1-2. He just showed him the jab. Beautiful.

Knockout of the year givin the backstory

11:26 this what alex fans don't realize, but I ain't saying alex ain't shit, he's a beast, no doubt

Best Ko I ever seen just based off the story and skill

This is gold. Never gets old. Full story with satisfaction.

What a fight...what a ko!

You guys are calling this fluke but this is exactly how you K.O a bigger fighter . You let him get comfortable and get close and you will have to eat up few combinations up against the cage but when that opening comes you throw that right hand you’ve kept hiding full of rage lmao . This is no fluke this just how you deal with bigger fighter because you can’t take them head on lmao especially a guy like Pereira 😂

Joe: “And he have to stay off the cage” *clearly not 😅

Boxing and ufc has been awesome this whole year

3:1 общий счет, 1:1 в ММА. Хочу их бой в полутяжах

The left jab at 12:00 was lightening quick⚡damn!

this was the most viral fight i've ever witnessed

Honestly israel had nothing else left to prove in his career after this. Probably hard to get his killer instinct going when he's proven himself as one of the best so many times

Крутой бой, молодец Адесанья на этот раз времени хватило

Да, месть - страшная сила. Исраэль долго об этом мечтал и все продумал. Он даже смог просчитать где будут близкие Перейры. И показал сыну Алекса жест ( падение), котором когда-то сын Перейры пародировал Адесанью. Есть видео на этот счет. Все продумал.

im excited to see izzy fight again, hes still elite

Top 5 kos of all time because of the size n power difference the record Alex had over izzy. N perhaps the absolute best ko celebration of all mma

The sweetest KO seen

Izzy needs those blue shorts when fighting for the belt again

It's 3-1 izzy. Izzy won the 1st fight, Pereira got saved in the 2nd, 10 more seconds in the 1st mma fight and ko, and in the 2nd ko. It's 3-1 izzy. Deal with it. Pereira fan boys like to act like all of those fights were a wash by Pereira. Without counting the last mma fight izzy proved to be the better fighter before either getting stopped or robbed by the judges.

TOP OF THE TOP SKILLED FIGHT

Alex is a natural 205 pounder and got knocked out fighting in a smaller weight class.

Pereira with the ostrich fighting style.

Крутий бій 🔥

Adesanyas counter up against the cage was so quick and clean, i think that first right put him out. What a knockout 👏

This whole fight was basically a kickboxing match.

Wonderful, I loved this beating, this fighter is very cocky as a hero, he took a good beating!

One of best ufc KOs ever... he def played a little opposum there

Мой любимый боец

Their fights have always been competitive. Nice to see Israel getting his flowers for once. This was sensational.

adesanya is like miocic for middleweight, he's a legend

I love how people say Izzy is scared of Alex yet he’s the only to fight him on 4 different occasions 😂

the timing on the knockout is INSANE

Never gets old

5:54, Donald Trump is attending this fight

Peak MMA right here.

That knockout was so fast i dont even see it 😂

so funny to lose like that after outclassing him in impressive fashion

I don't care how many times Strickland beats Izzy, but the Izzy in this fight, will fuck Strickland up!

One of the best fights ever. So clinic. And what a ko, Izzy is a tremendous fighter

To throw punches between punches is an art form that Many cannot duplicate! This is similar but different from counter punching/pull counters etc.. Bud Crawford has also mastered this skill!
