Damn I love Adesanya and view him as the modern day Anderson without all the martial arts love, class and flash but hoping somehow someway Anderson pulls it off. He'll always be my GOAT.
Hoping for none of that dumb hugging and constant glove tapping though. Surprising booking though. I was expecting Paulo Costa. At least he won't look as bad as Chuck did tonight. Chuck looked like an old man with dementia lost in the streets. Was pretty hard to watch. I'm assuming this is the passing of the torch and retirement of Anderson though.
So who takes over if Whitaker or Kelvin can't go ?
I think they give it to Silva over Israel .
As is....f*ck . Might be the end of Spider. If he pulls something out his ass though , he will get a title shot after.
I'd say give it to Adesanya. Don't think he deserves it yet but it's a fresh matchup @ 185.
If not give it to Jacare / Rockhold. Strangely I really have no interest in Whittaker/Romero 3 despite the first two fights being bangers.
That being said, I think Kelvin out boxes the shit out of Whittaker and gets the W if he can't get him to the ground.
