#UFC259
Watching Jan beating the guy who Jones couldn't finish in five rounds was very impressive.
DOMINICK REYES IS A TRACK AND FIELD PLAYER...... GO TO RUNNING.
Great fight!!! No doubt, Jan Blachowicz has some serous Polish Power!!
La UFC viene a menos, estos campeones no impresionan. Con un peleador de verdad no aguantan ni medio round. Dan lástima
i dont know if im right but i think it would really help reyes if he steps in alot for a jab or straight to the guy
._. XD
Stuck in the mud
Anik ruins the fights
Izzy isn't dumb enough to continue to circle to the right side of Jan ( Dominique's left) into the power. He would interior those lead left hook, straight right, and left body kick combos immediately with feints, and circling away from the right hand of Jan. The other thing working for izzy, is that he switches stances continuously. Not saying Jan can't catch him, just saying it's a 100x harder then catching Dominique Reyes.
That ref stopped it waaaay to quick give em a chance to fight back
Reyes' hairline is starting to look like a mohawk
POLSKA GUROM
When Reyes got his nose smeared across his face, and Jan kept punching it. Cant imagine that pain, that’s why I watch from my couch
The commentary in this fight, feels like your watching Golf
Was that a bad stop? I mean with his long legs he was already winning some time to recover and fight again
Jan's kicks probably feel like getting hit with the super shotgun from Doom.
Jan could beat jones
9:51 The beginning of the end. Reyes advances and Jan thinks he's gonna throw something but... Reyes does a little dance. No plan whatsoever.
When they say Mexicans can't dance.. shoot, ff to @10:24 Haha had reyes doing the stanky leg, salsa shuffle
I can see Izzy coming for that left leg and gonna try to catch him when Jan tries to rush him with flurries like this fight. Dominick had very little faints but when he went for it, Jan was always ready to counter. Izzy is the master of faints so I see Jan biting on a lot of faints and getting his leg chewed if he falls for too many faints much like the Costa fight. Those body kicks are wide open for Izzy too as you saw Dominick had success in this fight. I can see Izzy getting caught trying to go for a body kick, but I can also see him fainting a few of those and waiting for Jan to try to counter. Possible KO for Jan or a possible repeat of the Costa fight except Jan actually being the aggressor. So many possible outcomes, can't wait to watch this one!
Don't forget Reyes basically beat Jon Jones, he's a great fighter. Got caught with a bad shot here but he'll be back
Good guy Jan.
Anyway I came here to know how tough he is an opponent to izzy so after watching the fight my view is that izzy will pick this due apart
1:27 con israel andensaya no le puedes descuidar la guardia si no ya sabes que pasa
"Big RIGHT by Jan Blachowicz" Looks like a LEFT to me 10:20
Sorry but, that kick to the ribs start the end. Now I go to UFC 2021. Thanks and bye.
Jan is the reason Jon Jones went to heavyweight. Scared of that Polish power.
9:10 Blachowicz looking for big big Knockout
izzy gonna have a hard time tonight
Not really a pleasant evening for Reyes
It's funny how these guys have no combos
NO 1 thought jan would win i really hope it happens again next sat
The punch that took Reyes out didn't even have any wind-up. He literally just touched him with his hand and he died
ISRAEL- GREAT FEMALE FIGHTER OF ALL TIME
so satisfying
Jan is too strong. Izzy gonna have to use that counter punch he likes so much.
my god that left body kick is like a hammer
Costa talk to much to cover his fear..adesanya know that .. But..Jan is a cool man..always underdog..n wins...tht izzy scared.. Jan gonna win this fight...
He should have been more forward like he was against Jones. I suppose Jan's knockout power was the deterrent. Also...man...I'm not saying this is a bad stoppage, but after how DR was rocked and given his nose condition I think it would have been appropriate to stop right after he hit canvas.
why don't clean the blood on the floor before the fighting?
Yes strong
Polska!!!
The well-to-do appeal ironically fry because moustache premenstrually arrange lest a three division. animated, pastoral yacht
All this tells me is that Reyes is hesitant and Jan is slow and powerful. I think Izzy picks him apart. Jan rushes in like he did against Santos and Izzu counters him to get a KO/TKO
Jan got rebar in those hands😳
The video is very amazing and very action
Facebender.
Hopefully Jan walks Izzy down and we don't get another Romeo vs Izzy Main event... this Ref was on point Reyes was out here no need to take anymore damage good stoppage
Kano wins..Fkn beauty..
It's hard not to pick Izzy. If both fighters wait to counter strike it could be a little boring. I don't see Jan waiting for too many rounds. That might give Izzy the edge.
I know you BJ (broadcast journalists) have to say SOMETHING, but his one sucked, JMO, your's may vary. Stoppage too soon, also JMO.
Reyes' brother coaching JJ, did not know. Wow, thanks for saying so.
Jan come your fight with Izzy, we will not Yawn. Folks gonna be WIDE AWAKE.
🇵🇱 💪!!
I can't wait to see Jon Jones face if Izzy wins
Who didn’t like that fight?? They’re probably terrible fans of the sport.. they didn’t like the result so they disliked the fight
That dude is awesome , I hope he kicks Israels arse.
🛼
Jan’s left body kick is one of those strikes that makes me wince just watching. He throws it so hard and so accurate.
Ezzy will frustrate jan
Big power from the winner
It's a mistake for Adesanya to make this move. He may win, but the chance he's taking is not worth the money he's getting. This guy is a monster; yes, I know what Adesanya is supposed to do to monsters, but this ain't worth it. Will I watch it? Of course.
Good referee whats his name ?
Yeah, Jan is strong, but i think he might be too slow to catch Israel. However if he does manage to land, i doubt Israel will be able to weather many.
預祝重錘成功屠龍
When you see this video you will pick jan 💯
Look EFC let the ufc . Ufc is just business, is not good
imagine gettin knocked out infront of your brothers lmao
I don't see the fight going distance between him and Izzy. They're both able to knock eachother out.
They will play it smart and tactical. Counterpunching.
Bad stoppage
Why? Broken nose, possible broken ribs, how many shots does Reyes need to take?
Wow, you can see Reyes' nose go sideways.
No way Adesanya wins. Adesanya will be broken in half despite his sophisticated and flashy striking.
Ver video se le olvido a batista que esta en Mexico
that body kick is telegraphed all the times , first the left jab the the kick. Its not gonna work against izzy he can use it to his advantage.
Jan has scary power for sure, but I'd be surprised if he could land any of these strikes on Izzy.
@A P Agreed, I wouldn't bet on it either... then again, I'm not a betting man in general.
a couple of things I know for sure, Jan will deal with Adesanya's low kicks much better than Costa did. Jan will have that size and reach that will make it more difficult for Adesanya to avoid. I also think that Jan could beat all of the opponents Adesanya has faced in the UFC. Adesanya is obviously superior in the standup skills. But skills go to the garbage can when all it takes is one little turn of a punch to take you out. Hence why I wouldn't bet on this fight.
Dom wakes up.. Yea well, im still THE PEOPLES CHAMP 😂
holy shit dominicks nose went sideways
All his movements are Predictable , Repetitive! Issy will pick him apart with Speed , Accuracy and Movement..
Yeah, Jan is strong, but i think he might be too slow to catch Israel. However if he does manage to land, i doubt Israel will be able to weather many.
i like watching this guy get beat down
Dear MMA gods, please help Jan do the exact same thing to Lizzy Lol no but seriously, Jan hits hard af. Even the ones Reyes blocked sounded painful. And those left kicks to the body.. it looks like he got hit with a baseball bat 10 times 😵
God bless Poland. One of the few Reasonably Governed countries left on Earth!
Izzy is not going to circle toward Jan's power hand when blitzed at, like Reyes did which is what got him clapped. In all honesty i'm rooting for Jan but it isn't going to be a straight forward win like this one. I can see Izzy winning a boring point fight against Jan, I can also see Jan KOing a tired adesanya with ground and pound, or the polish power one hitter quitter. Toss up with Adesanya as a slight favorite to win by decision.
Reyes has a pretty good chicken dance!
That kick left a massive mark. I’m sure he felt that weeks later 😳
I am seriously impressed with how far Jan has come. What a heart, he just continues to push himself to become the best!
Hail Hail Jan Blachowicz. Long live the king.
You can say by that little noise at 0:12 Anik thinking "este pelotud0..."
I will dance in a second, zokete.
Dunno why the hell Reyes was standing still this fight. Zero of the movement he had vs Jones.
just imagine if jon jones would take this guy serious
Reyes’ shorts look like a vagina giving birth to a grown man.
Izzy got a fight on his hands.
LEGENDARNA POLSKA SZIŁA
A bit early but I feel like Reyes was going to lose anyways
Izzy can KO Jan in round 3 with smart game plan. Jan has power but his fight IQ and defence is much lesser of Izzy.
All you fanboys kiss your Daddy Adesanya's feet Jan Blachowicz koed Dominick Reyes a 6'4 light heavyweight there is no way Adesanya is winning who is a middleweight
They dont want white champions.
Jan would knock out jones
@Muyanzi Reid I feel that Jan would win the rematch against Gustafsson. that fight was 5 years ago. Gustafsson had two takedowns and was able to keep Jan down for most of the time, only reason he won. Gus is quite a good boxer himself and Jan was outclassing him.
@Muyanzi Reid 😂😂😂 I can't respond seriously to that question I'm sorry lol
@da_ig_nit_guat MMA Math don't work, what if Reyes had a bad stomach ache earlier in this fight.
@Muyanzi Reid jan knocked out a fighter who merked jon Jones
Jon Jones would be double legging Jan every two minutes just like Alexander Gustafsson did😂😂😂
What a fight!
If you are izzy Jan's power has to scare you a bit. Punches and kicks.
Both fighters are aware that Izzy can't afford to make a mistake, whilst Jan can. What that means is there is quite a bit more pressure going into this fight for Izzy. His mental game needs to be better than it's ever been. Everyone knows he has the striking ability to win by decision at the very least, however for that, he'll have to remain in such a state of concentration throughout the whole 5 rounds and not get deceived by a single faint, level change or approach by Jan. And yes he's done that before against Romero but there's even more on the line for him. The fight will boil down to whether Izzy stays composed. Not who has better skill, power or any other attribute.
Jan looks like a real life version of the 'yes chad' meme
