Spider my personal GOAT but y'all gotta chill with the he washes Adesanya in his prime nonsense, prime Anderson never fought anyone who could actually strike at a high level, someone who could feignt and with legit striking credentials would have given him trouble even in his prime

I mean, he ate those punches and smiled tonight. He also looked visibly slower too. I'm not saying he would've washed Israel, but some of those kicks or knees he wiffed on would've landed :manny:

At 43 he didn't even look bad compared to israel. Spider couldve definitely beat him during his run(not saying Israel wouldn't stand a chance cause he would). Israel needs to get the belt and hold it for 7 years before we crown him.

Yeah his hand speed-power isn't what it used to be. I mean the man knocked out Griffin with a back pedaling jab.

Some of you are acting like he didn't try to kick Silva head off. Silva has great vision-reflexes still at 43. Silva caught him with some good jabs but just didn't let his legs and hands go.

Im a adesanya fan but did you see this fight , anderson won round 2, and 40 plus years of age, anderson in his prime gets him out in one or two rounds, the boxing difference is just too great in anderson favor.

You're creating strawmen to argue against

Not really, and that fight wasn't even fought on the level, that should have been pretty obvious if you know what you're watching.
