UFC 287: Pereira vs. Adesanya 2 - Official Discussion Thread [April 8th 2023]

[ghostfacedup]

Izzy is going to have to run for 5 rounds. If it was 3 rounds he would win easily. running for 5 rounds is tough. I got Alex winning.

My money is on burns. Masvidals body doesnt look athletic at all and i dont think he can overcome the wrestling. I think Pereira vs. Adesanya is 50%50.

[nikeoneplatinum]

Who you got?

I parlayed all the black guys.

[MinisterOfLust]

This is not a bad card. I see
Adesaya losing the same way again.

Gilbert gonna submit Masvidal

[stayhomeneet]

I hope Alex wins, no nonsense guy, proper old school.

But it just feels like this time will be an Adesanya win, maybe against the run of play he gets a submission or something. This is MMA, you fight the same guy enough times eventually he will catch one on you.

Afterwards Adesanya and all his fans will be like "see, I won the war, I was always better", totally ignoring the fact he's 1-3 vs the guy

And Alex won't get no rematch, he will be put into a gauntlet of all the toughest guys in the division in the hopes he goes away.

Classic Dana things.

Periera inside 3 rounds.

Izzy is gonna make the same mistake he did in kickboxing. Gonna come out full offensive and get finished. Pereira is just a better striker tbh. All the fancy sht izzy does doesn't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world against unrelenting power pushing forward.

Burns

But this this is closer than people think. Masvidal is good in the areas that would make this a hard fight for burns. Good striking, good take down defence etc. Not to mention burns is a little chinny. But masvidal has checked out. When you say you're retiring if you lose then you've already lost.

Yanez

Not so confident on this because yanez is more technical and csn throw combos together much better than font but God dam fonts jab is incredible. Wouldn't be surprised if font wins by just jabbing the entire fight. But his chin is made of glass so hopefully yanez does enough damage and knock downs to win via judges.

Holland

Also a hard fight, long range sniper against a forward pressure brawler. Ponz chin is suspect though so that's what I'm hoping for but Holland's fight IQ is non existent.

Rosas Jr

Rosas is just better but it's not some wash fight. Rodriguez has good subs and won't be surprised if rosas takes him down and falls into a guillotine or gives up his leg

[TCmaxxing]

Why do so many people call it for Alex but betting odds put Izzy the favorite?

he's going to try to grapple him all 5 rounds since that worked the first fight

otherwise he gets KTFO


imagine izzy winning by sub

[Gainzzz]

He has hinted at this all week but I'm not sure if it's just mind games. Alex definitely has decent TDD when he's fresh. If Izzy thinks he can go full crotch sniffer from the first round he's probably gonna gas himself out and get KTFO.

I can't wait to see what happens tonight. Still leaning towards an Izzy decision and I do think he uses more grappling, but I'm hoping Alex goes 4-0.

[ForumPatrol]

I parlayed

Raul
Holland
Pereira

I have other parlays but these are my fairly confident picks.

[IronILLinois]

Dammit, sharing my secrets here. Been on icelz crew since forever because of the adaptive bitrate.

Pyfer is a tank, gawd. Slick hands as well. Hope he does well this year and gets a top 15 next.

Yea, it seems like not many people know about it. Hopefully it doesn't get swamped and nuked but a few miscers should be ok.

Also, that was a great fight. Kelvin always had the talent and skill but he just couldn't stop eating tacos and quesadillas

[goingcia]

Is prime minister in attendance?

[iwant2beswole]

hype train derailed

[goingcia]

Rosas could have had this if he striked. Mfker keeps diving and getting stuffed. Thought he’d be smarter and use his physical advantage. Now hes barely breathing.
