The UFC middleweight champion made his Octagon debut only two years ago at UFC 221 in Melbourne before beginning his rapid rise. Israel Adesanya would become interim middleweight champion only 14 months after this bout.

Wilkinson: I'm dying here, stop the fight plz ref. Ref: You've received 30 punches and haven't thrown one, see if you can make it to 50

Why you gotta be soo rude 😸😹😹
@@s1iznc1d34 both hands on the face and not even fighting back lol.
Idk why so many guys are acting like the ref should have called it sooner. You just aren't clear on the rules. If Wilkinson actually said "Ref, stop the fight", or anything else like that that's exactly what would have happened. Both hands on the face, moving his head, and those kicks he was throwing were enough to be considered intelligently defending and fighting back. Any fighter, at any time, can verbally submit or tap out anywhere on the cage or the mat. Also, yelling or screaming out in pain is usually considered a "verbal" submission as well. The ref did a good job. He wasn't out on his feet or anything. You guys act like fighters are locked in there against there will until the ref decides to let them out 😂
Wilkinson: I’m literally dying in here ref. Ref: I’m not stopping till there’s no pulse.

That man was shooting for takedowns like his life depended on it 😂
He didn't have a choice lol
Shit I would’ve done the same but what really fucked him up was the fact that in wrestling there are no cages. Cages/fences help people get up to their feet easier and take away some of the body weight of your opponent. Israel abused the fence as he should. Normally in wrestling if you’re the person escaping you’re putting in more work, but if you have a fence helping you, then the guy attacking is fighting against you and the fence, so they’re literally draining their energy while you get little rest breaks. It makes it an even playing field. The fence it self is the reason why wrestling isn’t as overpowered in the ufc as it could be. Makes it a nice balance, this is why I like ufc.
@@kukluxklangaming2060 you are sleeping on izzys takedown defense even without the cage it would be super hard to take down Izzy because of how athletic he is and the ways he uses his body
Ku klux, actually for most fighters the fence helps their wrestling. Khabib always corners his opponents to the fence, before taking them down.

When a guy goes down to a standing hammerfist to the ribs you know he is just done. Dismantling finishes like this are honestly way more damaging than a one-hit KO, this guy took so much extra damage and since Adesanya was so methodical and slow-paced about it, was able to stay semi-conscious through the ordeal.
For real. If that ref was any good at his job, he would've stopped the fight as soon as Wilkinson started leaning on the cage and stopped throwing punches. Wayyyy too much unnecessary damage taken.

These are Izzy's phenomenal performances in the ufc in just 2 years(6 post fight bonuses).

Kal he just makes everyone look like they don’t belong, and in all honesty watching the Romero fight back again it just seemed like Romero didn’t know how to attack Izzy. Say what U want about Romero, but he has never been held to a stalemate against anyone else. Just shows the masterful technique in Izzy’s striking game
I agree with your argument but ease off his dick a little. Threw out a few to many "of all time"'s in there. Also, "striking masterclass"?. Brunson shot for identical naked takedowns over and over because he thought izzy had no grappling and after like the 5th one izzy caught him with a knee. Hardly a masterclass, tho it was a great performance, especially from a takedown defence standpoint.

My first thought was, “No damn way can a guy who’s just coming in have that much ability.” Turns out I was wrong, Izzy’s striking is the best since Silva’s and his ability to keep opponents guessing with dangerous and unpredictable techniques while remaining aggressive reminds me of a young Jon Jones.
michael thomas wait what? Lol, Anderson Silva can still strike with anybody. He beat Silva in a striking match. Even now Anderson can beat 90% of the roster in a striking match. Secondly, he nearly beat Gastelum into submission in the 5th round in what was a come from behind victory. Then starched Whittaker(who was running wild on the entire division for years) flawlessly in only two rounds. Can’t deny that resume man
michael thomas also, getting “pieced up” by Gastelum is VERY debatable. Gastelum has his moments but never took control of the fight. Even the rounds Gastelum won were close
His feints are key
@michael thomas I agree. Izzy is good, but he should not be compared to a prime Silva, nor a Jon Jones. I see Izzy vs Costa being similar to his Gastelum fight, so hopefully Izzy comes prepared.
Anderson Silva held the belt the longest then anyone else in the UFC and fought the hardest competition out there.Big names,not just a few like Izzy.The man was the raining champ for like 6 and half or 7 years if I remember?And on top of it barley spoke English,didn't need trash talk to push his career.Same with Jones.It is very silly comparing this guy to them,almost insane 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
