HBB1: Yes he knocked out Robert in the first and second round |

PureFace1: Bros understand. Jones: Light heavyweight Adesanya: Middleweight Unless they agree to meet at Super middleweight. Hope this is clear to you now? And please before you call someone a hater on a faceless forum, try and understand his/her point of view. 1 Like |

HBB1: I won't advice that. It may slow him down. That's why there are weight classes in fighting sports like boxing, kick boxing and MMA. If you try to force yourself above your normal weight, it may spell doom for you as a fighter. Mikey Garcia vs Errol Spence comes to mind. Mikey Garcia was normally a light weight who tried forcing his way to welter weight and got punished for it by Errol Spence who was a natural welterweight. You can google it or watch on YouTube |

ThierryJay: Jones is another kind of animal. The shorter Gastellum and Rob tagged Adesanya good a number of times-- which I thought he would have avoided with his reach and kickboxing experience. He dropped Robert after a reckless exchange with his eyes closed-- his eyes were actually closed! That exchange could have gone either way. The only person with impressive striking skills he has faced is Anderson and it was difficult. Jones has very incredible striking and can grapple wonderfully. To be honest Adesanya's grappling is not fantastic. I repeat Jones is another kind of animal, buh...let's see them fight, let's see what happens. |

darkelf: Dude, don't try to school me. People climb up and down weight classes, with no problems... Pacquiao ( several weight classes), Canelo, Roy Jones Jr ( from middle weight to heavyweight), James Toney (same), Evander Holyfied... Adesanya is 6,4ish... Jones is 6,5ish, so what's the problem? Nobody should bring that excuse. |

PureFace1: Knocked out? Do you know what you are saying? |

HBB1: Go and watched it on U tube and stop asking questions He knocked out Robert Whittaker twice |

PureFace1: Or you meant to say a knock down?! Your ignorance of combat sports is soooo glaring! |
Re: Israel Adesanya Knocks Out Robert Whittaker Now UFC Middleweight Champ (Photos) by darkelf: 10:15am On Oct 06, 2019 |
HBB1: Bros, Manny pacman is one of the few boxers that have ever tried it and became successful. Name other that have climbed up eight weight classes and have reigned supreme?? And I'm not trying to school anyone. I'm only giving my opinion without insults or acerbic wit as the manner of some is. Canelo right now is contesting with Sergey Kovalev for light heavyweight crown which I think is a bit rushed. Still I think canelo would most likely win because crusher is quite old and barely was able to knock out Anthony yards in their last bout. Canelo is more experienced than Yards and I don't think Sergey will get away with it this time. Even when Lomachenko was asked if he will one day stepped up to welterweight, he said it was a stupid idea as he may loose some speed and power against the natural welterweights. Now, that's a technical boxer talking..... Roy Jones won against a poor fighter in Andy Ruiz who back then wasn't even rated as a true champion. Why didn't Roy Jones stay on after winning if he really was that good. He couldn't have emerged victorious against the likes of Lennox lewis or even the emerging Klitschko's. Let me also add that Evander stepped up from cruiser weight to heavy weight and that's just like going from primary 2 to primary 3. But you're taking about stepping from middleweight to light heavyweight. Its not that easy. He has to get past super middleweight first. I'll advice that he lures Jon Jones into Super middleweight so that they can meet there |

HBB1: Oh yeah I just started watching UFC I watched the match and Whitaker finished both rounds on the ground. If not for the blown whistle that signal the end of the round , Isreal would have pounce on him and cause more damage You can call it whatever you like but to me he knocked out Robert twice |
Re: Israel Adesanya Knocks Out Robert Whittaker Now UFC Middleweight Champ (Photos) by ThierryJay: 10:20am On Oct 06, 2019 |
HBB1: Gastellum and Rob may have caught Izzy a few times, but if you know Izzy's style, you'd know that he doesn't mind taking a few punches cos that's what gives him the opening for his counter strikes as seen in Rob's case. He has the ability to absorb strikes without losing much balance. Jones may be an animal, the Stylebender is also a Beast. 1 Like |
