@websurfer476 he has a big ego, seems like he spends more time on what to spend his money on than what he used to when he didnt have money, meaning he isnt as hungry. many fighters have fallen to money as so many more issues arise with it. not an izzy hater but i think pereria is highly underrated, would like to see him and vakhitov do another kickboxing bout but alas adesanya said some words that gave pereria a chance in the ufc, other wise he wouldve just been happy doing an mma fight here, and a kb fight there. kinda like what gabriel varga does. respect to every single fighter i just named because theyre clearly crazily in love with the sport and are willing to cross into any combat sport against any reasonable opponent, the reason you find aussies and new zealanders crossing into other weight classes is cause we live next to thai land the home of muay thai so we get pretty crazy in oce. i mean look at that heavy weight aus, when i used to train there were two ex ufc fighters in perth at the time (now we have a current one) but the one who i trained with told me about the other one and their private classes and that they were brutal heavy weights, only years later seeing that guy fight, it made sense why my gym had these big guys who could throw light but were heavy heavy sparring gods, they mustve sparred with them a bit. (not sure if adesanya still has that love for it there for the sport tho)

Petr yan vs sean O’Malley was top 3 highlights of the year under appreciated fight

[@madgavin7568]

Great fight that was unfortunately sullied by a controversial decision that fans are still going to be bellyaching about for awhile, particularly Yan fans.

[@justinklenk]

I'd forgotten what a back and forth fight Tai vs Cyril was.

[@WhaleRider-bi8yf]

Love to all the warriors of the ufc 🙌

Forget Connors gorilla walk, Alex has that Brazilian Walk

[@funkopopmob3279]

I love how they tell Alex you need knock him out… it’s the last round… Before the 5th round begins he looks at Izzy and says “Te voy a matar” “I’m going to kill you”. Iconic!

[@confuse_volei]

He said "Ready to Kill". In Portuguese "Pronto para matar".

Don’t try to translate a language that ain’t yours, if you gonna miss lead people!

[@funkopopmob3279]

I honestly thought it was Spanish not Portuguese… 💀 Well to be fair in Brazil they speak both Portuguese and Spanish… lol

Thank you MMA gods for this truely amazing year of MMA.

[@Knoob_jockey]

Leon's comeback was best of the yr.!! 🙌

[@boris_js]

Comeback lol. Just 1 lucky kick which got connected and apart from that kick he has Zero legacy. Usman will again dominate and expose him next fight.

[@anasahmd6613]

@@boris_js that connected shot needs focus and experience, If leon is not a professional he will not be that calm and focused to land a kill shot , well deserved

[@derlandedossantos9809]

Vamos em busca desse revanche, Oliveira. 👊🏻

[@JoeTestosterogan]

Leon’s post fight interview is so intense and emotional. Absolutely inspiring. Stunning performance.

[@reallymakesyouthink]

Look at me now

[@jack_ssr]

What a great year, can't wait for 2023

[@xnlofer]

man that islam v charles is the best for me

[@danielatlas7059]

Can't believe how many times i replayed Kamaru and izzy getting KO'd & TKO'd Two classic finishes with impeccable timing and accuracy.

[@Posibrian]

Best year the UFC has ever had regarding super fights.

[@stephenwa7417]

Ciryl gane and po atan are my fav fighters. Can't wait to see em next year...

[@CocaineCowboyJones]

Leon's win over Marty was the best of the year moment in UFC's 2022
