Strickland shitty philly shell completely befuddled Adesanya. But but, but philly shell doesnt work in MMA (or so said thousands of little boys with a white belt in bjj)
a peak anderson silva would have beat the shit out of adesanya. and he was way more entertaining to watch.
Ouah, never thought Adesaniya would lose to a plodder like Strickland. While he never was on Silva's level (no shame in that, just that this is how he was hyped), his best days seems to be behind him. Was probably a bit lucky to catch Pereira in his last fight too thinking about it.
Yeah he got lucky and closed his eyes, he was about to get koed quicker? Do you think his dui made a difference or a case of he doesn't look great if you have any kinds of hands if I remember correctly he got a narrow or split decision over gustulem and it was all stand up and that guy is a wrestler.
he clearly beat Gastelum imo, but he nearly got koed a few times. I dont think his DUI had any effect. Guy is a millionaire, paying a few thousands and hiring a driver should be the least of his concerns
I'm saying drinking during your training. Three weeks before the fight shouldn't you be obstaining from the alcohol, I'm not sure what the legal limit is in Australia but how seriously are you taking training?
Yeah, I forgot that he got arrested not long ago (usually takesa few months to pass in court for such an offense, at least inCanada).I guess it's real possiblethathewasn't taking Strickland seriously
Seems Likely in Hindsight... Going from the JOYFUL, "Fortify Your Mind" Pereira Post-Fight Interview to an UNINSPIRING Loss to Strickland the Next???...That Level of INCONSISTENCY Certainly Lends Itself to a "Fortunate" Performance on Adesanya's Behalf...Pereira was Definitely CLOSING IN On Him in their Last Fight...
