We need more interviews like this great questions, no fake connection always love Izzy interviews/ videos

[@karsam7751]

Izzy and entire CKB team are just amazing. Such positive vibes.

[@federalgodson]

Izzy sent me here. So glad I found you guys awesome podcast. I appreciate the effort you guys put in to share your views.

I respect Izzy for owning up to the Rob comments. I thought that was kinda dark-ish to say at the time and I'm glad he addressed it.

46:00 still makes me smile so hard hearing this news with Jones, you both are the Goats of our generation along with GSP, Khabib and Alex. The Mt. Rushmore of MMA. The youth is watching. ❤

[@philipmupstate]

This was awesome to watch, I’m such a fan of Tyson, Kai, and of course Izzy. But so humbling to see Izzy on a chiller vibes being who he truly is. Very real to get see this side of you guys

[@nrl974]

Shoutout to Izzy for realising he was wrong for what he said to Rob was wrong. As a proud Maori born and raised in Australia it put me off him saying Rob who has a Maori tattoo ain't a real Maori.

[@jnbz13]

Agreed , the tattoo thing is abit irrelevant tho kuz . Mike tyson legit has a Maori tattoo on his face 😂

DDP doesn’t want it. He’s saying on KZbin videos he wants a holiday. He’s also training in those videos so he must not be that hurt. Only one fighter will fight anytime anywhere and that’s Izzy.

[@evilkhamzat]

Of course he doesn’t but white South Africans will insist he isnt scared 😂

[@hellodarknesssmilefriend]

He just cut weight, its not easy to cut weight twice in 3 months

[@ThePEFREAK]

DDP went into the rob fight with a foot injury, I know izzi fans are scared of a 100% DDP and want this fight with a compromised DDP

[@tryhardninja1089]

He just demolished Whittaker who was stylistically a harder matchup for Dricus then Adesanya, and you guys think he’s scared lmao

[@jayn6943]

You realize that the only person trying to get out of the fight is Izzy, right? He is the one calling other fighters out. Izzy knew that his opponent was going to come out of that card. Therefore he was fully aware that they would get injured and wouldn't be able to fight in the Australian card. It makes no sense for him to act like his opponent is being unreasonable for wanting a full camp and to not want to cut weight so close together. I'm not saying that Izzy is scared of Dricus. But he is the one, that for some reason doesn't want to fight.

Saying Dricus doesn't want the fight is disingenuous. 6 weeks notice...

[@cyrusadu289]

Bro Israel has fought every month in kickboxing and he has fought in the UFC every two months except when he fought Rob. He fought 5 times a year. Plus Dricus said he would have fought Israel the night after he beat Rob. Lastly, let's be real Dricus cleary said "I want to be the first Real African champion ". Francis ,Usman and Israel have brought the belts back to Africa, to the poor kids to give them hope and they are building gyms and a promotions for Africans. What has Dricus done for Africa??? I understand what Dricus was saying because a south African explained what Dricus meant but it took him for us to understand what Dricus meant. Soo Dricus should have clear on the message he said or having a conversation with Israel on Instagram privately but nooo he did not.

[@iamfishmind]

9 weeks. DDP fought July 8, Australia is September 9. that would be short notice, but it's the fact that DDP said over and over he would do it, then he backed out. and guess what? he's gonna miss his shot because of it. UFC doesn't forget things like that.

Narcissists like Izzy don't realise how hypocritical they are until they are attacked. He was stupid, and he will always be stupid. Growth is important, and everyone should be given a second chance, but Rob should be the only one to decide if the apology is okay or not.

[@adolfoneto2126]

[@XxDjthadestroyerxX]

It just dawned on me that Izzy is actually just trying to ruin DDP. We all know Izzy wins that fight, but he wants DDP to rush into the fight so he can take a real title shot away. DDP knows he needs to be 100% to have any chance vs Izzy so he isn’t taking the fight

[@Realhater1352]
