costa looks bigger due to different genetics
costa weighs 185pounds
izzy 184 pounds
they bought fight at middle weight
which official weight is 185
so weight is not the issue here
ok, cool
Re: Israel Adesanya Vs Paulo Costa: UFC 253 Fight Card by lilsaint44(m): 10:03am On Sep 26, 2020
this fight is gonna be mad costa is aggressive plus his forward game is mad and he has serious power but he gets tired easily While adesanya is super evasive and fast plus precised mind you costa has a chin and adesanya is not a known one punch ko fighter but am pretty sure izzy wins by decision but its gonna be tough am not counting costa out Expecially in the first two rounds. but and stilllllllll........

Most of you don't know that Adesanya was once knocked out flat by costa country man some years back in china......I hope it doesn't happen again cos that costa sef na beast and he wont entertain Israel's showmanship. Dude need to go for the jugular and get dangerous straight

Air Style Bender, the last Avatar of this era. His movement is so FLUID like air and so SLIPPERY like oil, you just can't catch and hold him. RIP in advance to Costa grin

Izzy in 5.
Costa will tire. All that pent up manic energy he has been directing at Adesanya will be blown out in the first 3 rounds and will count for nothing in the last two rounds of a championship bout.
If muscles meant something in this sport, Brock Lesnor would be a g.o.a t.
Izzy must never get into a wrestling match with this guy bc he'll be toast. Brazilian bbj ppl are no joke.
Take his time, pick his shots, avoid Costa's over-hand bombs and he retains the belt.

moralistic:
Costa is too big for this category

Honestly... He should be light heavyweight at least. He wants to use the natural weight advantage so he cuts his water intake and does a lot of cardio before the weigh-ins. But I'm happy he has less time to fully rehydrate. It's gonna affect him too...

Izzy has also mentioned that he's on steroids... He looks like he is on steroids.
Re: Israel Adesanya Vs Paulo Costa: UFC 253 Fight Card by Princepioneer(m): 10:12am On Sep 26, 2020
Av been watching this guy's former fights since last night.... Guy got skills but he has to apply some new tactics on his opponent this time around cos that Costa guy is a monster...

lol costa is jacked but i don't think he is on steriods
he is the most tested fighter in ufc by USADA
he is just jacked naturally
same as yoel romero
but they both can easily make weight and fight at light heavyweight
Re: Israel Adesanya Vs Paulo Costa: UFC 253 Fight Card by saajus: 10:20am On Sep 26, 2020
legelege can destroy. I wish him the best. I hope he can redeem his image. The last fight against Yoel was a waste of time for me.

That's what they say all the time about his opponents, they are monsters and truly they are. But one thing they forget to tell those guys is that Style Bender is the Monster Killer grin. Do you think it is beans or moin moin that the Legendary Spider Man himself aka Silva called Style Bender the real deal and passed the torch to him. Outside of his own talent and chi, Style Bender has the spirit of Spider Man in him grin The only person that can beat Style Bender right now is Jon Jones and fortunately for him they are not in the same weight class, and fortunately for Jon Jones if Style Bender actually reaches that weight class and maintains his skill sets and near-perfect fluid style of combat, Jon Jones is going down mehnnn, KO! The guy's slender appearance they make many people underrate am to their own peril. But Style Bender is a big guy at 6ft 4, he has good reach and combined with his skills, he is very dangerous

This will play out exactly like his fight with Romero. These steroid boys hit hard, tiring them is the only strategic option. By the third round Adesanya will pick the guy apart to secure the victory. It may turn out another borefest. I do not care since Adesanya will retain the title as usual.

Well, the thing is we can't say a 100% that USADA's tests are accurate. The way steroids work, it's not always detectable in the blood, there are several factors that affect it...

Either ways, I know Adesanya has him figured out already. Costa is being too confident calling Adesanya skinny. I know he hits non-stop but Izzy will stop him.

USADA testing so far has proven to be very effective over the years, thats why a lot of fighters stop using peds
bro i feel you almost all the middle weight fighters are always looking down on izzy coz he is skinny
and thats thier doomsday
they don't recognize his fighting iq
costa will charge at Izzy coz he is powerful and very durable
but i know izzy can evade attacks
even tho he will get caught a few times
izzy wins by decision IMO
but its gonna be a tough fight

OneKinGuy:
Costa is an animal. The guys body is rock solid. I just hope Adesanya wins this as not only will he lose his belt if he loses, He's also gonna be inflicted with heavy damages that might cost him his fighting career.
Style Bender go kill am. Do you know right now that Style Bender is among the top 1% fighters in UFC with the best takedown defense? The guy's takedown defense is sooooo good to the point that other fighters who are highly gifted and skilled with wrestling grappling and takedown skills don't even bother trying when facing him. Because the guy is always like 4 moves ahead of his opponents. They just can't catch him unawares, and his movements are very fluid and unpredictable, they can't hold him. Adesanya eats such fighters for breakfast. Even if Kabib the takedown small god fight Style Bender, Kabib can't take him down cuz Style Bender is too quick, too smart, too fluid, too skillful. Costa's strong point is his striking ability. I think na who u blow u go fit win with striking, Israel na wind grin, very hard to land clean shots on him, very very hard. And Israel is a very dangerous striker too. The guy is a combat machine grin

I can't wait for this fight....

Israel's last fight was unusual of him... Let's hope he doesn't use same tactics in this one
He actually used the best tactics and it works for him. His opponent was way bigger and more powerful than him. He resorted to hit and run tactics otherwise the guy will wrestle him down and overpower him. Smart dude
