nunes should just start fighting dudes, theres clearly no woman who can take the heat and its boring to watch now.
yan is an idiot, but his stans defending him are even worst. i cant wait for the rematch, aljo should have the jitters gone and have a better game plan. should be a better fight all around.
izzy was just too small for jan, jan probly weighed 40+lbs more than izzy last night
Agree with all of this, they're going to have to continue to manufacture cards where Nunes is the semi-main event (unless they can come up with a catchweight for her to fight Valentina) because her dominance had destroyed any semblance of competition or suspense. She's honestly like Tyson was in the late 80's.
aljo was way too tense/nervous and all over the place that match lmao. it was an entertaining watch, but you could tell he had a bunch of nerves. i think it'll bode well for him during the rematch and like you said, he should be able to regroup nicely.
i think adesanya actually would have pulled that match off by decision had jan not laid on top of him for 5+ minutes the last 2 rounds. jan was just so much bigger than him.
Aljo came out suuuper wild, I was hoping the initial takedown in the first would settle him down but they went right back to their feet.
I think Jan's corner got to him after the third and said that if the fight kept going the way it was going, Israel would win by decision by just staying on the outside and picking him apart. It makes no sense for Jan not to use that size to wear the smaller guy down and put his weight on him to control the fight/gas Israel out.
It was the only fight for Israel to take at the time, and even now he's pretty much stuck waiting on the winner of a fight between two guys he thoroughly pimped out when he fought them in Whittaker and Costa. Who knows though, maybe Paolo is able to lay off the wine if he's able to get another shot.
