Mad people started doing some after his (no I'm not saying he invented celebrations lol, but made a trend/wave for a bit)

It felt abit cheap because it didnt make up for the other times Izzy got KO'd into oblivion, but Izzy full on acting like he did. And the very next fight he got his peaches pounded by Strickland's girth for 5 rounds straight. 5 rounds in pound town with the guy Alex melted in less than 2 minutes. 😅😂😂

He took Alex's own arrows and rained down on him with them, then grabbed the quiver and broke the remainder of them and threw them down. Definately a badass celebration. Izzy beat Alex with his own type of game, fast shots you cannot possibly see coming or have time to react to. His timing was exactly the sort of timing Alex has been getting guys with, fast shots that are not able to be deflected because there's no telegraphing. The shit just hits before they even see it happening.

The only thing I didn't rly like was mocking what Alex's son did when he was literally a child. Still what a story for the future to look back on especially if they fight again

Its a great rivalry especially because izzy has done this against a person he lost to 3 times. It takes alot of bravery to go out there to win after all those tries against such a scary dude, izzy just is a weird human being while he thinks he is the hot sht and he is a bad winner thats why people try to undermine it because he is not respectful unless he gets his ass beat.

@@baileyaylward7356 who cares? he got his back, the kid still understands what he did and why izzy did that after beating his dad.

Wow that's embarrassing

Just like Anderson silva. You back them up against a corner and you have to expect some wild counters coming back ur way. Pereira wins that one 3/4 tho.

@@Zobokolobozo exactly, that’s why it was so fraught. Izzy took a huge risk, in the same position he got TKO’d last time.

The 1-2 left-right was lightning fast, the left was just to keep the head of Pereira at enough distance to be able to generate enough speed to make his punch powerful. Izzy hasn't brute power in his fists but his speed is a power multiplier and if you leave him enough space to generate speed, you can be KO'ed even if you are an unstoppable terminator like Pereira. Like him or not, he has specifics elite skills.

The luck was the most insane part

1/4 overall. Just needs to beat him 3 more times. Let’s not forget Alex did a massive weight cut each time which severely affects your chin. Izzy will run from the trilogy the rest of his career and never go up a division to face Alex there.

@@hadleyslife7351 Alex didn’t teach his son about respect so izzy had to teach him. Good job izzy

So many people, including snowflakes here in the comments had a problem with it. I don’t understand why. Should we teach our kids that they’re invincible and immune from accountability? Alex’s kid directly insulted a world class fighter and the guy talked shit back. Nothing bad happened, no one got hurt, and the kid learned that people notice when you talk shit and when you talk trash, you put yourself on their radar. Not a bad lesson to learn.

izzy has been doing that for way longer than Alex

@@kaylenleonardalex invented it

Izzy has always said he’s the biggest troll 🤣

And breaking the bow after 3 shots (one arrow for each of Izzy's losses to Alex). Coldest celebration after a fight, right next to Chandler doing like 17 backflips next to Tony's lifeless body and Tyson Pedro with the Samurai Sword/Lyoto bowing down after handing Vitor a front kick KO.

@@kaylenleonardwait really???? I dint know that🤷‍♂️

Rematches between intelligent strikers often feature spectacular knockouts like this, adapting to the other mans tendency's and knowing when to find him off guard. IZZY showing incredible IQ, he knew Pereira loves to pressure guys into this situation against the cage, it was the situation that got him knocked out in the first fight. Alex striking is so accurate and powerful that he either completely shreds up someone's guard and finds the chin behind it, or they are forced to have to strike to back him up and expose themselves. Izzy knew he would be in this situation again, and that he was going to be exposed either way and exploding off the cage into him was risky but Alex would not see it coming and he was on the danger zone already. Many fighters would've been KO or run away at all costs here, very few could get any damage in never mind a KO.

Hes 1 and 4 with this guy he has not one reason to celebrate much

Im imagining izzy prolly thought of what to do when this happened when he got knocked down last match in the same exact position.He prolly ran this scenerio alot of times in his head cause he got knocked down last time.

What do you mean? Alex slaughtered Izzy 3 times before, now when Izzy won one time he’s better? In the wild Izzy would be a chicken stew after the first fight. And Izzy also let a little kid get to his head

Wouldn’t exactly call shelling up against the cage and countering standing in the pocket but good knockout either way

Izzy would get annihilated if Pereira didn't have to do such a massive weight cut tho 😂

He had no choice it paid off Alex was legit stalking him down where ever he went

@@jengofetlupa44he only shelled up to bait Alex, gotta remember how the first fight went. Alex did the same thing by cornering Izzy against the cage to get the knockout, Izzy realized what Alex was trying to do and instead of just countering and staying in the pocket, he plays possum after the low knee, jab, and hook, and opens back up to counter once he see’s Alex let his guard down(hand wise and mentally) thinking he had him in the same position as before. People may say a lot of things about Izzy but dude has a phenomenal fight iq.

@@seriustraco listen to his coach again. His leg was hurt true, like bro it's Pereira's leg kicks you know, but look up for deep analysis. All that wasn't some lucky shot it was a legit setup, he did everything on purpose, gave him that confidence and Pereira lost his attention and patience.

Exactly.....

​@seriustraco I don't think anyone beats Alex by throwing a hail mary shot and getting lucky.

Izzy’s strategy was based on countering, it was likely only way they found to beat Alex, have him drop his guard when he goes for the kill. Alex is that good on the feet and Israel knows it. It wasn’t luck at all, it was a risky play but the one that will take them the win. High risk high reward. Notice now how Alex has become a more patient fighter instead of rushing to kill. Israel showed a hole in his game and now Alex is an even higher killer.

@@TobiUchiha91 Alex would smoke him now at LHW

Well it was definitely scary seeing him backed up against the cage again "but" it's how Izzy likes to counter strike, let them "think" that they got him where they want him. I saw and understood exactly what he was trying to do and why he protest after the first fight got called, he was ready to spring up or move to one side and counter strike Alex but I definitely saw from another angle why the ref called it, pretty hard to say if he was selling the shots or hanging tough on literally all of them until an opening

@@ThatScytheHe really was badly hurt in the first fight, but he probably would have found a way to survive (maybe not). The fact that he ate a clean left hook and was still able to read Alex' shots and move with them/ take steam off of them is very impressive. It was a dangerous situation and he wouldnt have caught Alex anymore, but maybe he would have gotten out of there and survived the last round. If not though he would have been flatlined. This fight here though showed how fast Izzy is with his reactions. He wasnt even playing possum, that was just another "cool thing" to say. He really was hurt and got pressured against the fence, but he knew exactly Alex' weakness, because he caught him like that in basically every fight they had. So Alex could have won that fight if he picked Izzy apart slower, but he saw how Izzy backed up and went for the kill. Big mistake with a counter striker like Izzy.

​@@OoLiiMiiT3DIzzy was fucked in the first mma fight. The dude wasnt moving like people say he was, he was a sitting duck waiting to get knocked out. Ref literally saved izzy some brain cells.
