Adesanya vs Costa, vote inside
- Thread starter La Paix
- Start date
I have a bad feeling this fight is going to be a flop. Adensaya/Romero 2. Adensaya was so cautious with Romero and Costa hits even harder.
I"m going against the grain here and picking Costa. He isn't technical, but he is very powerful, and I don't know how durable Israel is. Israel will be caught clean at some point in the fight and Costa doesn't seem like the kind of guy who doesn't capitalize when he hurts someone. All the steroids for the win unless his zique looks different than normal at weigh ins (ie. backed off the roids).
Kelvin hurt Adesanya. Of course speed was the key but I’m hoping to see Costa get a couple bombs in. If so I don’t think IA can last.
it comes down to how Adsenya wants to fight.
Paulo will be walking him down, which I think he shouldn't in order for him to win but I can see Adsenya circling outside the whole time.
I am going out on a limb and saying whoever gets there arm raised at the end will be the winner.
I don't know that Costa is fast enough to close the gap.
If he can, he can put Adesanyas lights out.
Quietly hoping for that.
Expecting Romero Adesanya 2 with the wrong man coming out with a lackluster victory again.

My initial pick in Monster's challenge was Costa by KO. The dude really is a monster who can knock any MW out. I switched it to Izzy just because he has such good appreciation for space, angles, and distance. I think he will fight smart and ultimately take it, but I have a bad feeling in my guy that Costa will drop him with something big and the ref will jump into stop it prematurely too. I'm torn. Will prob switch my pick a few more times before Sat night!
I think Adensaya is going to fight Wonderboy style. I don’t think he is going to engage enough for Costa to land much. I think Costa is too slow to catch him in anything but a flurry against the cage. He’ll be chasing Adensaya all night. I see Adensaya coasting to a decision. That said, I don’t think Adensaya will commit enough to through his big power shots so I think the fight goes 5 rounds, and that’s a lot of time for Costa to land a bomb or Adensaya to make a mistake. I’m really tempted to pick Costa by KO.
Costa beats him, body shots and winning the grappling exchanges will be the difference , hard to say KO but I think he gets it done either way.
Not an Adesanya fan (don't like his personality), but I think he's just going to be way too technical for Costa to deal with. I think he wins this pretty easily, but hopefully I'm wrong.
Shocked to see so many votes for Paulo. Interesting. Thought it would be a straight wash, with me aside, voting for Israel.
I’m gonna pick Costa. Don’t know why, i like IA and i think he’s the better fighter, just have a feeling.
Well was a mile off, Costa was more timid than usual but Adasanyas footwork was outstanding when he did try and press him, brilliant with the low and high kicks and his jab was on point. Costa didn’t know whether to throw caution to the wind and the second he did he was clipped and finished.
