I think that reach plays a huge advantage as to why certain fighters are dominant. This applies to Izzy and Jon Jones. When Izzy and Jones face guys their size it doesnt look that great. That being said, Izzy will probably win the rematch. I like Alex though and was happy he won.
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Alex was brought in to the ufc just to come and beat Israel. This is the third time he lost against him, 2nd by ko.
I dont see why the fourth time would go any different. Styles make fights. This is stylistically a very bad match up for Israel...

Kind of figured this what happened both fighters are good and nowhere near the prime should be fun in the rematch

I was at that event, the best fight was easily Poirier against Chandler, that was just an insane one. I got to see Izzy and Alex and it had shades of Usman vs Edwards. Seems like 2022 is not the year for Nigerians! Izzy was winning comfortably before the final round but then Alex just sort of exploded. One thing that stuck out to me is that Izzy was not fighting in his element when he decided to take Alex down.
My take on the MW decision is that whoever can wrestle well is going to hold that belt for a long time. IMO, Khamzat is the future of that division until Bo Nickal comes in. The division has no real wrestling threat in it and even Whittaker was able to push Izzy to the limit in their second fight by utilizing some wrestling.
Had a lot of respect for Izzy though, dude grew on me overtime and he was a chill champ. However, I do not see him or Alex dominant for long once a good grappler comes into the situation. As of right now, the division is Khamzat's for the taking. In a few years, Khamzat vs Bo Nickal might end up being the Jon Jones vs DC of the Middleweights.

anyone named Izzy deserved to lose.
“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
