    :lol: I spoke too soon. There are a few on Sherdog who are saying they had it 3-2 for Izzy but I can't see the official poll results on there because I'm not a member.

    I was convinced Jan would get the nod when I saw Dana White looking grim and without hope in the background

    :lol: I never noticed that. I bet he's extra pissed after Sugar ''Money'' Mac losing to Poirier in January lol

    Brock Lesnar is probably going to be called to come back:lol:

    The UFC needs that large fanbase he carries around.

    How did he get so bad. He’s like a cheesy embarrassing pervy old Uncle that thinks he can fight, I can’t believe the cringe off the man. Try thinking of someone that is worse, they don’t exist. I can’t put in to words how much he winds me up

    Uncle fester Dana crying cos his brash flashy cash cow got mauled by a quiet humble guy.. izzy the last gender bender.. calling Covington wacist for calling out trash movement BLM.. glad he lost.. well done Jan, KTFO of Anderson, kicked the organs out of Reyes & mauled izzy at 38 , all pretty much in the space of 12 months .. love it when he smashes these cocky fighters.. ridiculously likeable guy.. looks like Stipes little cousin lol

    Izzy can´t really handle guys that are overly patient. It puts Izzy off his game.
    He is similar to Silva in that regard. Silva liked to capitalize on guys over reaching. But he himself had no idea/did not like to force the action to create those counter opportunities.

    Oh ****! Old ass Glover Teixeira is next in line for the belt. I really hope they make that one. Looks like a brilliant clash of styles.
    Too bad that Thiago lost, would have loved to see a rematch with Blachowicz.

    Seems when Rogan is on and who ever he cheer leads the rest follow him. It was awful how they were all over Izzy's nuts.
    If you were not watching the fight and just listening to the commentary you would think Jan was getting his head punched in and not returning a punch let alone land one.
    Jan did move very well and seemed to land the cleaner shots just about each round.

    Still would have been fun seeing a rematch with Jan.

    Jan is clearly the best LH in the world right now.

    I had a Jan winning by a point, but two judges had him winning by four! points if I remember correctly.

    Prime version quite likely, yes. Hard to know what he has left now, though. Has looked very average in his last two fights and then been inactive for a long time.

    Rogan's been woeful for YEARS with his biased commentary. Remember he was the clown who said Rousey could beat male ufc 135 lbers.
