Rogan is just an atrocious commentator at this point. It's getting close to Goldie levels of insufferable imho

I agree but if round 4 and 5 were 10-9s then a couple of the first rounds should be 10-10s. It's just not a great system for MMA.

That was a terrible score by all 3 guys

What? Rogan and DC were super biased. Izzy only had feints in this fight.

DC was pretty bad this card as well.

Both guys seem to really struggle with getting away from their pre fight biases.

Solid majority of media scores look to be 48-47 Blachowicz.

Don’t see how anyone could argue that fight for Izzy. Not shocked either, he’s had a lot of razor thin wins against guys for a supposed unbeatable Jon Jones destroyer

I'm not saying this, but I could see someone having Izzy the first 3 rounds.

But Jan obviously deserved it.

He got outstruck in all 3 rounds. And Jan was more accurate in 1-3

Man commentary made people thing izzy was up. A good case could be made that he lost every single round. Be was out struck in every round. idk what izzy did to make people think that 49-45 wasn't fair

Not like jan did anything crazy round 1-3. Score was weird. 48-47 would have been accurate imo

I agree that there was no 10-8 round but no way Adesanya won more than one round. Balchowicz outstruck him in every round.

Don’t really agree with the notion jan outstruck him every round. I think izzy outstruck him rounds 1-3.

I hope people watch it again and I will too because I really don’t understand saying “jan clearly” outstruck him in every round.


The easiest rounds to score were rounds 4 and 5 without doubt but still I had izzy up 2-1 and landing the more strikes and especially kicks.

And yeah rogan is annoying. Such a (Please Use More Appropriate Word).

They talked about jans power as if that’s all he’s got. He’s also pretty skilled.

Good on Izzy moving up before his body even was ready for a jump too. Savage attitude.

Glad he lost, I find him insufferable to listen too.
He’s like a weird combination of a giant nerd/Anime/hot topic loser who is also the school bully. Can’t cheer for him.

This is also makes it pretty clear, Jones would have tore his head off.
