A Legend is being born right before our eyes!

⚫🐉 Hēilóng "The Black Dragon"

👑 Last of the 3 African Kings

🌍 The Greatest African Fighter in UFC History

🌊🌬🔥⛰ The Last Stylebender⛰🔥🌬🌊

IS~R A~EL 🇳🇬🇳🇿 ADÉSÀNYÀ !!!

By the end of the year, with a win in his rumored upcoming fight vs Dricus de Plessis, Izzy will make history and officially be on his way to becoming the greatest Middleweight of All Time.

with the Dricus win he'll have:

🏅 12 title fights

🏅 11 PPV headliners

🏅 9 title fight wins

🏅 8+ fight bonuses

🏅 5 title defenses

🏅👊🏾 Most Knockdowns in UFC Middleweight History

🏆🏆🏆 3x Undisputed Middleweight Champion

he is on the verge of Middleweight GOAT status. once he beats Dricus, if he can win the Strickland rematch then turn around and beat the winner of Whittaker vs Chimaev, he'll have tied Silva in title wins at 11. couple that with his résumé, his strength of schedule, his activity, the fact that he did what Silva couldn't by recapturing the title twice, and all of the hype storylines behind a lot of his fights; he could be looking at a pretty strong case for having surpassed Anderson.

What if Pereira unironically becomes a weeb? Like an undercover FBI agent who ends up embracing Islam at the mosque he infiltrated.

So the Nigerian took the L on this one, but it was definitely HIS FIGHT TO LOSE!

He had the cards won, just made a slip in goods positioning.

What’s next for the stars of UFC 287?

Our 3 protagonists for this story are, Alex P​erreira, Israel Adesanya, and Gilbert Burns. With so many moving parts after this weekend's PPV, we're going to go one by one, breakdown a likely scenario, a plan b, and a more far fetched route, for each guy. I'll give you my opinion on what each route signifies, what each fighter should aim for, and you tell me in the comments what I missed, and where I was wrong. Deal? Deal.

A​lex 'Poatan' Perreira, the now former UFC Middleweight Champ (sad face). 205lbs? Izzy 3? Let's dive in. It's February 8th, 2020 Jon Jones is fighting in the main event of UFC 247. The fight goes 5 rounds, and by the time the final bell rings, the challenger is about as confident as i've ever seen a man after an encounter with Jones. Jones steals a decision due to his extreme starpower, and champion status but Dominick Reyes gave him all that he could handle that night. Matching Jon Jones in size, and speed, keeping Jon on the outside, and excluding external factors winning a very close decision. 2 years later Reyes meets Alex Perreira, who is set to take on Middleweight Champ, Israel Adesanya. Below is a photo evidence of that meeting.

T​his picture set the MMA world on fire! Reyes on the left is in the division above Perreira, and is not small for that division. While Jon Jones the man he fought as an equal, is now the Heavyweight Champion. Dana said it, Izzy said it, and Perreira in the past has said it, he's gotta move up. If he goes up a division he'll still be massive, he'll have an easier path to the title (Jiri Prochazka, and Jamahl Hill), and he sheds the massive weight cut he undergoes every time. That's plan A.

I​f Perreira decides to stay at 185 their are 2 fights for him, and 1 that makes sense. Let's start with the latter. The dumb fight is Khamzat Chimaev, and for a time the scariest man in the promotion. We haven't seen Khamzat since he was pushed to his limit against the most underrated Welterweight of all-time, my boy Gilbert Burns, and he's been taking shots at Perreira for a little bit. Although this won't be easy fight for Perreira (because Khamzat is a stud), this could solidify Perreira as a force everyone should be worried about, even the wrestlers! However, the upside for Khamzat is much greater then for the former champ, so it might be a silly, prideful move that could bite him in the ass. The other fight that Poatan could take at Middleweight is the trilogy fight which he will probably lobby for! Izzy after the fight stated he wasn't going to give him an immediate rematch, and I am almost certain Perreira is not going to be willing to fight 2 or 3 times to regain a belt from a guy he already beat 3 times before. So unless Israel gets some balls, and decides to genuinely settle the score with Poatan, I am almost certain he's moving up.

N​ext, but not least, The Champ. What's next for Izzy? As a result of lapping the division, and not many challenges for him in the first place, Adesanya is in a privileged position, in which he can take a 3rd fight, with the consensus #1 contender at Middleweight, Robert Whittaker, who he's beaten twice before. He can fight Alex Perreira in the trilogy, but holding the belt, and being a star in the company, gives him the right to decline what is probably the toughest road for the Middleweight Champion. Or Izzy can take a year off, work on his wrestling, recover, and wait for Du Plessis to beat a top guy and earn his shot.

A​desanya vs Whittaker 3 won't sell, and can only be bad for Izzy. Adesanya vs Perreira 3 will be massive, but is very risky for Adesanya and could lose him his coveted superstardom, so honestly, fighting Du Plessis in 'The Battle For Africa' seems like the most sensible decision. The fan in me wants Poatan vs. Stylebender 3, and I love Robert Whittaker as a human, but if I were Izzy, i'd wait and take Dricus Du Plessis with a fat paycheck.

L​ast, and certainly not least, my boy Gilbert Burns. Honestly, if the UFC wasn't so short sighted, they should've made the hype on this UFC 287 Co-Main Event much bigger, and waited for the result to name Colby the #1 contender, but that didn't happen. So Gilbert went out there, fought a good disciplined fight, and handled Jorge Masvidal, for what? The backup fighter spot on the Colby Covington vs Leon Edwards match? Yeah, lol. So since he's not next in line, here are a couple routes for Burns to take.

B​urns vs Usman 2, if he wins, he's next, no debate. IF he wins, IF. Usman is still a killer my friends, a killer that knocked out Gilbert Burns a couple years ago, and a killer that's going to be hungry to get back to the top of his division, risky. Burns vs Chimaev 2. I personally don't think Chimaev wants another war for possibly no gain, he's in title talks, and there are easier fights he can take, that'll move him closer to his championship aspirations, silly for both parties. The PFL? Gilbert mentioned in his post-fight presser that he 'wants the title shot, or to be released', and I say this because I love Gilbert.. be careful what you wish for. Gilbert is furthest, 2 wins away from a title shot, in a wide open title race, his star is growing, the company is growing, and with the title comes PPV points, and more sponsors then he can handle. Gilbert, be patient with these fools, and keep on knocking down who they give you. If Burns chills, makes weight for Colby vs Leon, he'll be next, and if it's a quick fight, that could be by the end of the year, so stay the course Gilbert, you're so close.

U​FC 287 was a massive card, Miami was buzzing, Dana left very pleased, and I think the winners and losers on Saturday are going to benefit from such a spectacular event. Izzy took the deepest breath, Perreira, and Rosas tied for the biggest step backwards, and Burns did his job, as he always does. The great Jorge Masvidal retired, Rob Font got back on the winning track, and next Saturday there's more, so leave your comments, rewatch the fights, and complain about me to your girlfriends. Til' next time.

Former UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya revealed he suffered racism after leaving Nigeria for New Zealand with his family. Adesanya was raised on the island nation of New Zealand with the fighter having to move to a new country at the tender age of 10. Fans have always been wondering why Adesanya’s parents moved to a completely different country, away from all their family and close friends. #racism #israeladesanya #stylebender #ufc #mycelebrityandi https://www.instagram.com/p/CnzBsQPIImW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
