Yes Izzy!! Love your interviews, podcasts would be even better 😊
Fuck yeah brother. Hope to meet you soon - you’re my idol in combat sports and life in general. Much love from a Ghanaian American in Southern California. Bless
Yea
Yh sure
“Not skinny up here 🧠 and not skinny here ❤️” Teddy knows Izzy is a warrior 💪🏼
Izzy is not even skinny I don’t get why people say that
Ikr I've seen him in person bros massive
@@domvlogs3299your too skinny bro!
About his Strickland fight, Teddy said "Israel wasn't as Bruce Lee-like as he nornally is." Sean in that fight was also doing something Bruce talked about. Bruce said "The best defense, is a defensive offense." Strickland was coming forward with near constant offense and pressure, while maintaining an excellent defense. Hope you get that one back Izzy and I can't wait to see it!
Strickland got lucky , glad teddy shed light on it .
lucky for 25 minutes straight?@@Deimian676
@@Deimian676 I say that as a fan of Izzy now: Nah, how can you get lucky for 25 minutes of outstriking a guy? Did Izzy have an off night? Maybe, maybe not. We don't know But even if he had, it doesn't even matter He lost and that's it🤷🏿♂️ The most important thing is just learning what you did wrong there and making sure that some stuff like that doesn't happen again
@@Deimian676 you really think it was all luck that he walked Izzy down beating him up for 25 minutes was luck? That Izzy missed more than ever, and even the hits they did give him were mostly leg kicks and most of them were checked. If the ufc had judges with workings brains, or were fighters themselves Izzy would likely have been at 10% striking accuracy. You think that was luck? I bet you’re also one of those little downies who think Izzy intentionally meant to get closed to finished before getting a very “skillful” counter vs Alex in their last fight. Hahahaha fr let’s talk about that one, you think Sean was more lucky than Izzy vs Alex? Lol
@@That-One-Spy-MainExactly saying shit like “he got lucky” or throwing excuses out there will only guarantee he loses a rematch cuz this was definitely a skill problem, at least with Pereira you can say it was very competitive and Izzy was up 3-1 and he got caught at the end, Strickland just shut him down that night so it cant be something that’s just like “Oh I overlooked him” because nothing will change
Izzy is spot on...Teddy Atlas is the real life version of Uncle Iroh. One of a kind
@@YuldsHD500don’t sell yourself short bro your videos are really good keep working
Teddy is cringe and dated. Glaze more, boomers.
@@SatoshiShintoMe Why are you a hater?
@@SatoshiShintoMe Glaze deez nuts
I don't touch dogs though.. @@Spacey4000
Always loved Teddy. His boxing mind is one of the best in the world. If he and Tyson didnt have their falling out, hed be more revered than he already is.
They peaced it tho thank god now they say each others name with no bad energy they just stay away from each other but no more animosity
Paul Revere
Ah, I was there for Tysons run and honestly, Teddy dodged a bullet, saved a lot of BS and prevented a lot of headaches, Tyson is great to look back on now, but in reality it was 50-50 if he would even show up to the event its 50 Jail or 50 Boxing ring. Not that Tyson had the historically best competition, but he was definitely GOAT of his generation.
Both of them
@@Evzsz mma and boxing two different sports. Youre just a casual ufc fan not a true fight fan
Izzy's mistake against Strickland was aiming at the right side constantly. Strickland only had to block one side of the body, but if you replay the fight 80% of the strikes hitting Sean's left landed clean.
You’re super spot on mate 👍
I also strongly believe that Poatan had something to do with it. Remember that left hook? Where did it land? The right side. Shit prob gave Strickland ptsd and he tightened up when facing Adesanya. His adjustments are incredible but I truly believe this was a perfect scenario for Sean and a nightmare of a scenario for Izzy.
Literally
Great observation mate. Izzy posted your comment on his instagram story 👍
Ik lots of people saw Izzy’s story but I’d love to hear more analysis like this from others
Definitely a high level convo, this guy has a pure spirit
For low IQ people, yes.
@@danielden805wtf?
Love Izzy branching out and doing more content for fans during his break from fighting. Respect
Izzy comparing Teddy to Uncle Iroh and Teddy not knowing how to take it is GOLD
“Israel Adesanya” - The story of the greatest comeback in combat sports history!
OMG! Teddy Atlas is a legend but he's so much more, he has a presence. He can read people, this interview was lit! I hope Izzy can do more of this with TEDDY!! THANK U.
Yes Izzy, you’re in the back end of your career so please, do the work, acknowledge the weakness and unleash the beast we know is inside of you. Looking forward to your next fight brother.
Could listen to Teddy all day! And love hearing Izzy’s insights on mental game, life and fighting. Great chat gentlemen 🤝 Both Legends
holy shit bro. teddy dropped some psychological gems in this. i am not surprised that he's cus' mentor at all. passing down the knowledge man. honestly, some of this is life-changing shit for me. not rushing into the propeller of the airplane and getting it over with. i know exactly what that means. you have to try your best. you have to allow yourself to fail and be confident enough to fail so you can improve. beautiful stuff in this podcast. i feel like someone delivered this message to Francis because this is exactly how he fought Fury... So composed. He genuinely believed in himself when nobody did. Beautiful man.
Dude, check out his interview with Lex Fridman he did December on the 24th. Its a really good deep dive in to his childhood, what happened to his face, his father, Tyson & Cus, betrayal and true friends. Its one of the best podcasts ive ever listened to.
Crazy how Izzy won't use his platform, to talk about all the Christian African's in his home country of Nigeria, currently being massacred. A real ethnic cleansing happening, but only silence from Izzy, has he doesn't care for his people, or he fears denouncing Islam. Pathetic as always. A true coward.
Yeah, he wasn't Cus' mentor, Cus was his mentor.
Izzy is a fake Nigerian bro. He's from Nigeria by birth, he's from New Zealand by growing up. @@SatoshiShintoMe
@@mrrooster4876 right, that's what i meant.
Amazing conversation between 2 genuine people! Loved to see this.
what an awesome podcast, you can see izzy’s mentality, as strong as it is, being picked apart in a way that both highlights his strengths and his weaknesses. amazing combo, in all honesty i’d love to see a pod with nicsick down the road maybe when he’s done fighting or a strickland rematch isn’t likely, i feel like it would be awesome to see both sides of the fight and how they prepared and executed their gameplans
If Teddy didn't become a trainer and fight analyst he could've easily followed a path into psychiatry. He's got more than one, but his greatest gift is a keen ability to understand what's happening in someone's mind and how it can be leveraged as a strength or exploited as a weakness. A lot of what it takes to be a great trainer can be taught and learned, but I think that reading people on the level that Teddy does is a much more unique character trait. He also appears to have a genuine deep love of what he does and so he's always willing to share his insight with the world. Thank you for all of your contributions to combat sport Mr. Atlas. 🥊🏆
Cus taught Teddy well.
Awesome episode! Teddy is the man and great to hear his advice. I might be wrong here but I've followed your journey since the 1st time you stepped in that cage and since the 1st video you put out. You inspired me. 1st time I saw you step in that cage I was like holly shit! this dude knows how to bring out his Kurama. Every fight it felt like you unlocked a new jutsu, I felt like each camp leading up to Alex you were still that young Rock Lee. I felt after getting that W with Alex you lost some of that. I may be wrong here but shit it cant be easy to continue feeling like a white belt when you the champ champ champ for this fucking long and have the self belive you do. Looking at your body language in this video I can see that again. You steping up to that cage and telling your Kurama. Its time for another run dog! and fuck I cant fckn wait to see you live again. Big ups champ!
The mutual respect between Teddy & Izzy is on full display here…. I enjoyed this very much & I thank you both for being so humble & passionate about the science
Happy new years champ can’t wait to see your comeback definitely need more podcasts 💪🏿
Yes more podcasts!! Awesome video. We will see you soon champ. Enjoy the well deserved break!
Thanks lzzy looking forward to watch many contents on your channel in this year much love bro ❤️
@YuldsHD500 I checked your videos and i subscribed to your channel ❤️
WHAT A WAY YO START OF THE YEAR! 2 GOATS🐐
Thank you for this pod bro! Love it and was exactly what I needed to hear! Always an inspiration for me! Much love and thank you! Unleash the beast!
Good job brotha this was dope … hope to see more 💯💯
Izzy, when you introduce a guest, give him a good intro. Even if everybody knows him. A 2 - or 3-line compliment works. A fun compliment or actual accomplishments can set the tone of the interview
I agree! Introductions are a "must" for good interviews.
I liked it, Izzy set the tone for a great CONVERSATION not a great “interview”. I think that’s why this was so interesting and wholesome to watch
@@johnmaguire7898 it can always be better with warm introduction.
it’s cool to hear from you what was going through your mind during the Strickland fight. Teddy Atlas always dropping gems, not just for fighting but life overall.
You know its a good day when the last style bender posts another banger! love the content as always !
ANOTHA BANGA
Izzy comparing Teddy to Uncle Iroh is perfect.
ay big love @freestylebender glad you and teddy got to chill and discuss a lot of important ish. patience brother, you already won life everything else is icing on the cake
Great interview Style Bender!!!! I always enjoy hearing yours and Teddy’s thoughts.Both are brilliant minds of combat sports… 👊👊👊👊
Love it. Great interview. Great energy. Thank you!
i could listen to Teddy all day everyday, his wisdom and knowledge is unmatched
Thanks for releasing this! Great stuff 🙏
these lessons are what life's about. it's not only in fighting. a lot to learn from these discussions
Thanks for the awesome podcasts, this is an in-depth interview I now have a better understanding of fighting.
That bit about not taking the easy way out was really enlightening and powerful
Teddy's knowledge and wisdom, always transcends the wairua, if your willing to listen to the hikoi he takes you on, through the way he speaks and flows with it on a deeper level. Levels to the mind, spirit, soul, and how this is expressed through physicality. As Francis showed by example in a great example of a fight...patience is virtue, virtue is knowledge, knowledge is wisdom..peace✌🏾
Thank For Introducing Tedy To The Newer Generations.💯
would love to see more of this - especially one with GSP!
Izzy, THANK YOU for sharing this video. Just like you, I needed to hear this though not in respect to martial art but rather with life's struggles. Thank you, Teddy for graciously sharing your wisdom. Izzy, you've achieved the highest level in MMA yet you continue to want to learn, right the wrong, and open new "doors." You remind me of GSP. This is what sets you apart from other champions in my eyes.
Seek first the kingdom of heaven. Jesus can provide what you’re looking for friend. God bless.
this was an awesome video love both of you guys huge inspirations
Great interview.
A very captivating kōrero. Appreciate it🤝🏾
I appreciate collaborations like this. Please do more.

I'm a simple person. I see Adesanya, I click...
@@IrishJow Why are you copying and pasting this
Interesting podcast and insights from two greats
Thanks Izzy for all the respect you and your camp give to Teddy Atlas, In America we as in grandfather, father and I watched Teddy one way or another Boxing or MMA. Not that we all always agreed with him but, something to think about.... thanks again Izzy.💥💜
Dope ass interview
Adesanya is the G.O.A.T. In the book Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, it states “Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit”. You got This💨🔥🌪️🌊
Love You Guys
Teddy Atlas, spiritual vault of warriors' spirit.
Bestvhour i spent today watching these gents talk their wisdom
Nice exposition and humility on Israel to be dissected by Teddy, the right giy who can help you aoul search and reveal the truth to progress.
Amazing in depth interview Izzy, Teddy Atlas has so much knowledge of the fight game, always a treat to hear you guys talk. The comeback will be epic Izzy 😊
Teddy and Cus really broke it down about having a delivery system and not solely about power
Teddy is a living legend. Even though I don't see eye to eye with some of the things you do(Izzy), I can appreciate that you are a true martial arts fan and thank you for giving Teddy his flowers.
Izzy we love you so much❤️❤️you are an amazing champion and a spirit warrior🙌🫶 you’ve earned the respect of many around the world. Wishing you Much love and many blessings❤️❤️🫶🙏🙏hope to see you again soon.
