    Yeah DFW was pissed. The only thing I agree with him on are that the 10-8 was insane. I rewatched the fight and scored it 4-1 for Jan. The only round I gave Izzy was 3. Dana needs to move on, eventually Izzy was going to get exposed on the ground.

    He was probably upset that the fight was really dull and that probably hurt the marketability of both guys.

    I do feel like this probably saved Adesanya from Jones. If Blachowicz was able to take Israel down like that Jon or Cormier would have totally mauled him.

    I didn’t find it that dull tbh. I am not an Adesanya fan and I’m glad his weaknesses were exploited. I was also very impressed that Jan outstruck him.

    I also enjoy the fact that Dana is probably still fuming over it

    And yea, after seeing this fight I agree, Jones would absolutely maul Israel.
