    What a fight, the intensity from start to finish was incredible. Very hard to call and either way they need to run it back...they should actually just fight every 3 months if it would be like this every time!

    Think Joanna will get the nod from the judges but no idea how to separate them. Holy sh*t that was epic

    Kinda go along with Joanna about the swelling she said she could feel it was affecting her,coz just at that point she seemed to be finding her timing and taking over the fight or maybe i'm just sick about my quadruple that was up if Joanna won here.

    A 42 year old tank wasting little or no energy..smart by him but boring to watch

    Izzy looks frozen. Afraid of his explosive power.

    Yoel saving the tank for 4 rounds, time to unleash if he wants that belt

    I have Izzy winning easy enough,its a bit Floyd Mayweather esque but hes effectively neutralizing Yoel and picking him apart.

    That fight was brutal.

    Kiefer got deducted a point at bellator two weeks ago for the middle finger Izzy is lucky at the end there.

    Its like I said in the last fight, you have to do more to dethrone the champ. Yoel doing pushups after the fight saying he’s not tired, if thats the case he should have put that energy into going for it the entire last round.

    Izzy is corny. Hopefully Costa will put it up to him.

    100% , it was a weird fight from both of them.

    Izzys a bit of an arsehole however by the way he Carry's on.

    Costa/Izzy will be interesting.

    What's Yoel on about now? He's more culpable for this than Izzy! Izzy's of course not blameless.

    Fight of the year followed by disappointment of the year. Must be an omen, Ferguson is gonna get injured next week..

    Edit: stole this from twitter.
    Romero-Adesanya would've only needed 143 more rounds to match Joanna-Zhang's output.
