The Key to Alex Pereira's Knockout Power 👊 | UFC 287 BREAKDOWN 

Damn, Izzy just can't get past 2nd phase Alex Pereira? lol

@@AirLancer That's exactly how I see it. Some kind of Elden Ring boss shit.

Dude nice!

@@AirLancer He really does get stronger as the fight goes on. I think he deliberately conserves his energy until later in the fight. It makes sense for his style because he's durable and he has power so as long as he doesn't gas he's at an advantage on the feet, so he might as well just survive until the final round and then go all out.

baj in the wild flushE

Yep, his really good! Entertaining breakdown.

Over and Over again

Not really. Hes stating the obvious and a lot of the stuff he points out is not significant at all.

There is a lot that he missed but il guessing because its tome consuming lol

@@khairt1731 hes the best pfp fighter with Jon jones.

Exactly nobody talks about all the stuff Alex is doing just meat ride Izzy

Yes

They are meant to be bias and in favor for “I can’t see without my glass” type “hold me I got rocked” type 😂😂😂 genderbender got expose again Payasos 😂

@@twitchynltrev Izzy is going to get knocked out again😂

glad someone said it for me

pfft cut-out the leg check by Alex which lead to the KO.

The other guy is there to compliment, because this is clear a Sayif show.

This is his show! 😂 I just tee him up

They didn’t talk about leg checks which was critical factor for both of Israel Adesanya UFC losses.

​@Brendan Fitzgerald good job thanks for letting the man cook

Gastelum almost killed him, Romero amlost killed him, DC would kill him and he is 5'10, height does not matter. Does anyone else want to slap Brendan around.?

Weight bully, plus the shortest man in that division was the one that put him in most trouble, until pereira ofc 👌🏻

@@BrunoCasas.M if izzy is a weight bully what the fuck is alex? Also Izzy doesn't weigh that much hes just very tall, he came into his fight with Jan under the 205 limit.

Izzy fights close to his real weight. Alex drops 35pounds to fight. Alex is really a Lightheavy weight. Even if he beats Izzy again, he cant keep dropping 30-40pounds each fight, he will move up.

@@AQGOAT24 don’t matter, he’s still taller than everyone else. Finally gets a taste of his own medicine

Because Sayif was dropping knowledge

😂

Nodding to hide his chin, he doesn't want to get KO'd too

@@alexyo2440 how about he KO your chin with his nodding chin, then fart in your mouth when you're out cold

@@alexyo2440 legendary comment

45:04

@@jamesk3612 petty😂

@@jamesk3612original comment is still correct in arguing he didn’t misspeak for 45 minutes if the first instance you found was 4 seconds after the 45 minute mark.

@@gimpystimpy5304 op said he never even misspoke once

No doubt! I mean, it's certainly far from what you see from most of the mainstream mma commentariat or people like Bisping, but still definitely slanted focusing on some of Izzy's brilliant skill and technique while ignoring/underselling A;ex's equally as brilliant skill and technique. At the end of the day, even though this was way better than average, it's analyses like these that leads to 90% of mma viewers/fans to arrive to the conclusion that Izzy is by far the technically superior striker with Alex just having ridiculous ko power and not much else. He also straight up misrepresented the way that first round went, that round probably was going to go to Alex if it was for those last two shots from Izzy, and certainly wasn't a round where Izzy just outclassed him the whole way through - in the way this guy would have you believe. I also love this whole narrative that Izzy somehow dominated the grappling, i mean - Alex literally did way more damage and was all around way more effective in the clinch than Izzy was, and more importantly he was 1 for 1 on his take-down attempts, whereas Izzy had all 8 of his TD attempts stuffed minus one, that was actually first initiated by Alex attempting a poorly executed trip that Izzy reversed in mid-air. Granted, Alex definitely didn't look good on the ground after that, but if it wasn't for that one mistake on his part, based on how well he shut down every single other td attempt by Izzy - i don't think he woulda ended up getting on the bottom a single time for the whole fight. Which also is why that 3rd round coulda looked completely different and therefore woulda changed the course of the rest of the fight. At the end of the day, whether it was the td in the 3rd, or hanging in the pocket waaaaay too long allowing Izzy to rock him right at the bell, the points where Alex was damaged the most, though Izzy made the most of them, they had more to do with mistakes on his part than they did Ozzy's skill. Alex made all the big mistakes in that fight and still ended up winning

Izzy could lose to Alex like 5 more times and they’ll still jerk izzy

@@aeep1999 your boy had like 3 highlights in a fight he won, come on. he prob has Izzy's number but he's not the better fighter at all & all the experts know this

Totally agree. Who watches this breakdown thinks Adesanya was dominating the fight, which definitely was not the case. He was winning, not dominating

​@@ImJusWatching ok buddy 🤓

@@aeep1999you don’t think you’re jerking Alex? 😆 no one’s truly objective

meat rider lol

Good point

This dude is a gynobender fan boy

Alex was also checking a lot of kicks something Izzy hadn’t had to deal with in a while

14:30 he talks about the leg kicks

That's some ancient Mayan power or something. First couple rounds was kinda boring tbh. Just 80 leg kicks or whatever. Started getting good after that.

@@Wade-1 you arent a true fan then, the way Pereira was hitting izzy legs was a thing of beauty. he does it so quick and unpredictable

its his stance, he almost faces you dead straight when in upright.

Nah dude is just completely oversized for the division. He ain’t doing that to no 205lbers. And I don’t want it to sound like hate but pereira is the size of jon jones the current HW champ but is fighting at 185. You really think jon would ever get hurt by Izzy’s power? Hell nah bro, we seen pereira get hurt multiple times by izzy. At the end of the day alex is just significantly bigger than him.

I notice he has a big ass too. Despite being a pretty lean guy. Do you think that could have anthing to do with it?

False rewatch the fight. He was checking a good amount tho. Also izzy doesn't check he just makes u miss ur leg kick.

Yea true his checks really messed Izzy up. I'm surprise at how quick Alex reflexes are

@@aristotle9243 "Also Izzy doesn't check". Cool, so you just countered your own weak argument. Also the winner of leg kick battles usually dont fall over from drop foot and pain...just saying 🤣🤣🤣

@@aristotle9243 lmaaooooo you said false and then proceed to state that alex won the peg kick battle lmaoooo. So you know who won u just can’t accept it lol

@@iBussTooQuick Would u rather check a kick or make the kick miss completely??

​@@OzMate79 youre a lil kid that doesnt know shit about mma "😂😂😂"

Yeah man

Absolutely, in hindsight I'm sure izzy understands Goddard was just trying to protect him, and is probably thankful for not taking extra damage, even if he may not admit it

100% agree. If Alex would have loaded a punch and hit Izzy with everything he had It could have derailed his entire career. The ref did his job and protected the fighter

We have seen people recover after getting dizzy but in this case izzy has 0 foot movement and had his back on the cage ... And he also was looking to the floor. So really unlikely to be able to recover

I was hoping the ref would let Alex take a couple years off his life. Alex should've let his head bounce off the canvas

Correct! Alex would off flatlined him with following shots but i hope they let it play out this time so we can see it without controversy

Adesanya just lost the throne and should have had an immediate rematch

​@@bakerjohnny91 he's talking about their kickboxing rematch where Izzy got KO'd

@@MrSFblack And first fight, Alex was on boze. Drinking until he pisses himself.

19:20 izzy illegally punch Alex after the bell, that shouldn't count.

​@@the_batmobile0.4 Started the punch right before the bell rang. Not illegal

Better than that one British bloke

Facts. I do miss Dan hardy's breakdowns tho

@@malvinfahie4009 He has YT channel

His break down was thrash Izzy makes people react, he flinches the same way Alex does and when he stop reacting he got caught, dumb argument to not react to peoples feints

yes, over and over again and maybe over and over again....nahhhh I want Dan Hardy back over and over again.

Love watching this dudes breakdown every new ufc big fights. But man, this breakdown was blatantly bias towards izzy wtf

Wym. The Alex meat riding is astonishing. He didn't fight Whittaker he didn't fight like half the people you need a fight before getting a chance at a title. For all we know any other person would finish the job after wobbling him in the first round. Literally. Sure he can beat Izzy after loosing every round. But what if this man Alex lost to someone else before getting to Izzy. Than he wouldn't the squat shi.

​​​@@samuraijose817 dork. Adesanya himself challenged Alex 😂 he GAVE him the title shot

@@markfernandes11 adesanyas said it himself how does he get a title shot and didn't even... " So nah. Wtf. Wrong. And "dork"? What are you a big white kid from a 90s movie? Lmao.

@@markfernandes11 here you are fanboying again looooooool

real talk

Muito clubista essas análise kkkkkk

Bs, Alex didn't do is in the fight

He won the majority of the rounds..

you tinfoil hat mf'r. why would they rush alex to the title if they didnt want him to win? duurrrrrr. for the most part they probably dont care who wins they just want big fights

Knew he was a fraud when he said it seems like Izzy is stronger than Alex when we see him getting taken down and outmuscled in the clinch lol

They bias asf

This analyst a izzy fangirl clearly, Alex did a phenomenal job. 3 and 0

I agree he is all about Izzy. Alex will get the job done again!

Wouldn’t most of his significant stroke come from the knees and body hooks in the clinch?

@@butterflymage5623 which they also claimed Izzy got the better

@@Don-xr9cw as far as control he did. Alex definitely made him pay for that control though. But it did have the effect Izzy wanted. Which was to tire him out by round 4. Alex is just a monster that doesn’t stop.

Underrated kicks for sure

Idk poatan said Izzy checked some of his kick

Izzy's stance is too wide, leaves his legs exposed to every type of low kick... he can't check because will mess with his balance... Alex posture is the main advantage on this match imo

Correct. That's why his leg gave out in the fifth

If the ref didn't cut in there pereira loses so pereira was saved.

​@@aristotle9243 but when Pereira landed on Izzy, the ref couldn't save his dead body 🤣

​@@gigachad6885 😂😂😂😂😂😂 ☠️ ☠️☠️☠️☠️

​@@gigachad6885 😂😂😂

@@gigachad6885 ref couldnt save pereira this time

exactly super bias he needs to go hes trash

after Alex goes up 4-0 and eventually 5-0 on Izzy........these "experts" will look foolish.

😂 cry me a river.

Yeah, it was an Israel make out session and yet the record is 0 and 3.

Na Izzy is the champ🤷🏽‍♂️😂💯

Nahh.. alex got no belt.. deep sleep on the canvas.. he got lucky 3 times

Now you understand why.

Because it didn't really end up affecting the fight in Alex's favor. I guess Izzy just has really well conditioned shins. With that being said you are correct about how well Alex checked Izzy's kicks. If he didn't have that ability he probably wouldn't have made it out of the third fight.

Its not a check its a reaction to avoid the kick. Check is intentional. Are you blind

Ikr that’s like letting Usman rest after a fake nut shot Doesn’t make any sense 🤷‍♂️

It’s controversial because standing 8 counts shouldn’t exist

@@teddystriker it’s their sport. It’s controversial cuz izzy got knocked and that standing right count helped. If it’s any other person that’s suffer from that standing eight no one would care. Since the gynobender, gender bender suffered cuz of it “oh it’s controversial”

@@teddystriker why should you be the one who decides the rules?

@@leviwicks3600 Im not saying I should but it would make the sport better without the ref interfering, more action, knockdowns and potential knockouts, I mean don’t you wanna see that too?

Dan hardy did a decent job but I like this guy better

He and Dan Hardy are the best.

he seems to be biased on izzy tho

It's a nice breakdown, Sayif. I wonder what the meaning of the Sayif is ..

@@leviwicks3600 I noticed that too, very unfortunate considering the quality of this analysis

I always see him as the frontrunner of that striking style you see are beginning to dhow more and more in MMA. The switching stances and ability to fight comfortably from both stances.

The reason why his footwork changed is washer is to help address takedowns. Think of all the wrestlers he’s fought.

Best abuse, because 0-3 pretty much is 1 sided

@@MrElpajita Really , Have you actually watched the fights?? They where all very close and competitive. Izzy rocked Alex last fight he was saved by round ending. Both of there kick boxing matches were super close and Izzy Rocked him in one of those aswell.

He is such pure and humble muslim, alhamdullilah

They do it in every "big" fight...🤷🏻‍♂️

@@MrElpajita Calm down, lady.

Or Izzy is actually technically sound and Alex has just a punchers chance. So if those are the facts. Who's really D riding? The fans that rely on their fighters teqniques or the fans of the fighter that depends on a ko with a glass chin and no stamina. If anything people are hating Izzy and just denying Izzy's ability to succeed in this fight. Everytime. And once Alex does get that ko the fact Alex lost rounds and did horribly is non existent.

​@@samuraijose817 bruh why you mad 😅

@@-plskn7327 how is that mad? Your inner voice is just really creative and imaginative, you narrated it with a funny voice or sumn.

@@-plskn7327 are "big" paragraphs signs of anger? Or are you just can't read for too long brain hurts

​@@samuraijose817 take his meat outta your mouth bro 😆

😂

lol

With a broken rib healing

Because he’s the better fighter. 😂

I think people hyping up Alex. I mean how far can you go in this sport with a glass chin? Izzys a given. But anyone else. Idk. He looses to anyone else.

@@samuraijose817 alex have a glass chin?

@@Newagerr1 question mark? You okay? I don't recall Izzy having ko power. Just calling it how it actually is.

@@samuraijose817 what made u say alex have a glass chin? i dont think a kickboxing champ in multiple weight divisions have a glass chin.

@@Newagerr1 cuz Izzy ain't no ko artist 😭😭😭 UFC is different.

The bigger they are the harder they fall. No big brother is invincible.

Sounds like bs. Especially when Izzy rocked Alex first. And rocked him bad.

@@samuraijose817 all this izzy haters really need a reality check

@@amzarqayyim3472 Alex lost every round too. Like wtf y'all so proud of? The man's gonna loose to any other opponent that can finish the job relentlessly.

Is it really so matter a fact? Seems like a strange thing to say when you consider Izzy has won more rounds.

Torso rotation. I trained fighting on and off for a lot of my life and I never understood left hooks until I realized all of the power comes from the torso rotation. Once you understand how to implement it you can generate power from less than a foot.

He grappled him because he’s a lot bigger for the weight class and he has to prevent Alex from closing distance and throwing the left hook. Regardless of who you like more Izzy is a very skilled fighter. He’s very technical and has a very high fight IQ. Alex is a beast and freak of nature but he’s built for fighting. Izzy has disadvantages against him and Alex has disadvantages against Izzy. Bottom line this is the only guy that’s at Izzy’s level. They’re made to fight each other so why you trippin bout a breakdown? You get in there and fight izzy and see how well you do. The truth is they’re amazing fighters both of them so just stfu.

Izzy is a goat. Took those shot and still not going down to sleep . Shows he’s very powerful

Lol yeah the guy expect Izzy to feint and Alex stand still 😂

I feel like that’s valid because the way he fought in the fifth was way more aggressive and forward than the other 4 rounds.

Yea Alex took that fight on super late notice tho

Or the ref or the judges like their first fight.

i can let you in on a little secret, Alex KO lol. who would u pick right now if Porier fought McGregor again? or if Volk fought Max again? Poetan by KO round 3 this time.

@@rogerpairill2852 I hear you- BUT just like Leon Edwards head kick, you just don't know- Izzy might just catch Alex again, earlier in the round, and finish him. He almost did it.

@@arthurrose6473 agreed, thats why its the best sport in the world literally anything could happen, they both could score a double knockout then get abducted by aliens live on PPV lol

Bapa

What was Brendan’s analysis

That's why he gassed last time.

Wym he might as well wobble him again in the first round. And this time have no mercy.

And runs into a knee 😵‍💫

​@@samuraijose817 izzy only wobbled him because Alex was careless. Wont happen again lil fanboy

@@markfernandes11 "he was just careless" lmao you the lil fanboy. You think you not a fanboy bro? Who gots a better resume? I got more points in supporting Izzy and you don't. You have to be the fanboy here cuz Alex didn't even fight the people Izzy fought. Besides careless or not that shi wobbled him. Tf I give a f about how careful he was. 😭
