Prime SIlva was unbeatable so yea.....
Makes you wonder how Israel would have dealt with a prime full speed Silva - smh
This whole fight is the premise of Rocky BalboaFeels like Adesanya is carrying him. Not rigged or anything, just that Israel is probably more cautious of how unorthodox Silva is than he probably needs to be.
This is not an impressive performance to me.
Scrub Bisping was able to drop Silva. This guy has no power.

By being entertaining?
Wasn't fun though. Was essentially a sparring match.Bisping has legit boxing basics that Adesanya had no interest in displaying today. Izzy knew he had this fight bagged and wanted to make it fun and hopefully win by something spectacular.
Anderson saw those punches coming and rolled with a lot of them. That's why they didn't really hurt him.This is not an impressive performance to me.

By clowning when he's losing.
Yup.Ironically, Stylebender not crushing Silva probably gives him a false sense of confidence to keep fighting.
Was that "Rocky?" In... Australia?
It's all head games. Most people were beat before stepping into the cage with him.
Yes, eating punches is such a great strategy.Anderson Silva has a defined style. It literally involves clowning as one of its most important features, It doesn't work if he fought straight. What the hell are you talking about
That it's not fun to watch Anderson clowning like an idiot.It is! The catch and pitch is an actually defined defense strategy. I don't get what you're trying to argue.
It's exciting when fighters are capable of doing it effectively. Anderson has been capable of doing it for a long time.I mean sure, you are allowed to find Anderson boring I guess. Everyone has their own tastes, but clowing and catching punches as a means of opening meaningful offense is very fun for most people.
