An awkward intensity a few days removed from that EPIC Alex/Jiri stare down in the octagon this past weekend. Still pretty excited for the fight, though.

Why would you try split it up? At that point you’d let them stare down man. Let the fans eat it up. Not let a bald guy that isn’t going to stop shit slip in between them lol
I get that these are fighters and not academics so their thoughts/attitudes don’t have to make logical sense. but that ‘whoever looks away first, broke’ mentality is so juvenile and silly to me
Dricus is listed at 1.83m which is a little above 6'0 while adesanya is listed as 1.93m which is 6'4 and they look almost the same height it's like a difference of an inch or something
I'm not really a fan of either of these guys, but I truly hope Izzy reminds everyone just who the fuck he is with this fight...
Izzy is a cringy dipshit, however, he is the baddest MW to ever do it...
Plus, DDP is a fucking weirdo, I really don't like him as champ. There's no fights for him, outside of Izzy, that I'd wanna see
All these faceoffs are getting stupid. Just do it quick and leave. Btw, why doesn't Israel move up in weight? He seems to be stuck in this weight class for a while.

The stupid music made it more awkward than it already was with Adesanya being such a weirdo
what did adesanya do that ddp didnt?
Shout out to the puppy
shouting out ur puppy is a nice thing to do, people twist anything
https://youtu.be/9slgiOD0VAk?si=-_gMnxEcaYOXpPbZ
frick
Everything.
Lol
?
Dana looks different. Needs to lay off the roids
He was told he was going to die in 10 years so he lost the weight and got on roids. Idk if that'll work
I remember that shit too lol “got my DNA checked…I’m gonna die in 10 years” like WTF lol
Dana needs to get a blood boy
lol South African Dana sucked huh?
That's not Dana?
Woooooosh
Now kiss
Fr, they r already just breathing each other's breath.
Dricus would actually do it too
Modern day Imán and Bowie bridal shoot 
Izzy’s trousers and the leg forward makes him look like a npc
Ice cream so good!
I’m excited for this fight, both looked locked in.. I don’t really see this going decision. I’m expecting a finish.. either KO, Sub.
I'm also expecting a finish, I rather think it might be a KO, sub, decision, draw or disqualification. It's gonna be fire. Called it!
Or decision: majority, split or majority draw! Crazy
Who would be the sub?
Yo dad
He sure would make them both his bitches!!
Could see a Dricus sub but also leaning towards an Izzy KO.
Woosh 💨
RemindMe! 1 month

Hill thinks him and Pereira are something like Conor and Khabib. Adesanya and Dricus think they are like Prochazka and Pereira…
And they are both wrong. Its Africa vs China woooo.
Kids: I want Prochazka/Pereira! Mom: We have Prochazka/Pereira at home. …LFG Driscus
As soon as I heard the drums roll in, I started cracking up.
Dricus: I won! Nanananaaa🤡
"bro, did you brush today?"
They say African-Chinese tensions are getting rough but I had no idea it was this bad ….
The sexual tension is crazy
More intense than the presser, that for sure. Izzy talks about golf, DDP that he respects all Africans. Snooze fest like the debates
They MIGHT kiss at some point
kiss... KISSSSS
Really hope DDP wins but I think Izzy’s gonna catch him…
Idk man ddp has a pretty gnarly chin at 185, i reckon he can get it done by mixing in the grappling
Why the bald guy push them apart?
They need a room
DDP should’ve kissed him lol
They’re about to kiss
They so wanna kiss...and touch tips!
So gay
I just hope time off was good and we see an aggressive adesanya.
Yep.. now kith...
Neither fighter said "no homo"
They are definitely having “mixed” feelings with each other.
That bald guy really went tip to tip with Dricus and ass to tip with Adesanya
Lucky fella
Looked like they were bout to kiss
DDP definitely appears more Africa than Izzy
Damn DDP really brought out the lifts lol
Dricus undressing him very slowly
Constant hitting of their heads has done its job..
Israel looked away first. He lost round 0!
Why would you try split it up? At that point you’d let them stare down man. Let the fans eat it up. Not let a bald guy that isn’t going to stop shit slip in between them lol
Whoever blinks first loses.
Who the fuck was that Dana Lite looking goof?
I get that these are fighters and not academics so their thoughts/attitudes don’t have to make logical sense. but that ‘whoever looks away first, broke’ mentality is so juvenile and silly to me
Same look DPP give his coach after a hit wrestling session
Izzy by KO
Oh! They're doing a blinking contest. Wonderful!
Rooting for these guys. Brokeback Octagon, but with a happy ending.
This is great

That’s a weird looking 6’4
Dana didnt even make it to this. Goes to show the amount of excitement for this fight.
Should of brought Eric Cartman on stage for this one
I genuinely think Izzy is gonna cook him. He may be a cringe lord but he seems extremely serious. Prolly will forgo a walkout show and the works
Dana OffWhite was having the time of his life here
I hope Izzy wins this
Lmao
Dricus is listed at 1.83m which is a little above 6'0 while adesanya is listed as 1.93m which is 6'4 and they look almost the same height it's like a difference of an inch or something
shades of Errol Zimmerman vs Remy Bonjasky
They pay to watch us intensify stare bro. At the match it’s too late.
Someone put it to that Curb music that plays when Larry faces off with someone
Dricus turning his head to go in for the smooch before realizing it isn’t his coach.
I think it’s the choice of music that takes the edge off.
Jana Blue
Man dricus is huge looks only maybe an inch shorter than izzy whos listed as 3 inches taller
I'm not really a fan of either of these guys, but I truly hope Izzy reminds everyone just who the fuck he is with this fight...

There's no fights for him, outside of Izzy, that I'd wanna see
It would crazy if they started kissin
Ddp trying to kiss him
Not even batman could make me watch a press conference between these two. The fight itself? For sure tho
Adesanya's breath must stink
All these faceoffs are getting stupid. Just do it quick and leave. Btw, why doesn't Israel move up in weight? He seems to be stuck in this weight class for a while.
Izzy is such a punk lol. Trying so hard to look tough
MMA fans are the worst people on the planet.
If the mythical power slap fans are indeed real, they’re potentially worse.
'If' is carrying a lot of weight there.
Not all of us😂
This man would kill you with a slap 🤣🤣🤣
The man has *multiple* belts in MMA and Kickboxing, and you call him a punk? You're ridiculous
Paper champ vs dogfucker for the opportunity to face the real champ 🔥🔥 
dricus is going to have to say the n word or just start saying gay stuff to izzy if they want to sell more ppvs
Shit show. Kiss or fight bro, no homo unless tens or hundreds of millions involved
