Happening this Saturday.

Big card.

Sadly what was bound to happen sooner or later happened.His endless feints and not truly committing to is punches really bit him. Also his takedown defence was exposed in the 4th and 5th round. I mean, a jan that was very tired managed to take him down quite easy while Israel was not really tired. He probably would have won the fight if he was able to block the 5th round takedown... still a very close fight even if Israel managed to keep it on the feet. If Israel had any power and committed to his punches he could have probably stop jan. I think the reason why israel doesn't really commit to his punches is because he totally lacks power unless he is countering.It's weired that a fighter like jan, who move in slow motion and which motricity looks like that of a old man managed to go toe to toe on the feet with israel.

Gane is similar in the sense of not having any power, but Gane actually has better footwork and is a lot more fluid so he can chain things better.
