Stake.com announces Israel Adesanya as their Global branded ambassador

[danherbias07]

Jason Momoa looks fat while sitting but he is a tall guy than Izzy, but pretty much this fight is a much-awaited one on Israel Adesanya's career, and looking at Israel Adesanya he looks more positive he doesn't really care if he does have a belt and if he doesn't have it, this is because many are still saying that he is still the champ, but that doesn't really cross the line for him of thinking that Alex Pereira win was just a fluke, he surely acknowledge it as a legitimate win, so for me if Israel Adesanya lose this fight it is really over for him,

He is just big. 

That's true, he is optimistic and I think that's is one of the keys to winning this fight. He has nothing to lose but something to gain if ever he defeat Pereira and strips the title from him and back to the waist of Adesanya.
This is a big fight for most Adesanya fans, like me. Because we will never know what his next move will be if ever he is defeated. I think I am not ready to see that just yet.

Money is key here, and it's just a mutual agreement in which you are using your fame and reputation (celebrity) to promote a brand for money. This is purely a contractual agreement that is what gives celebrities the most money they have. And this could end in either mutual agreement or otherwise depending on the discretion of either or both parties.

However in most cases, when popularity dwindles, the company might change their mind, especially when winners are becoming losers or less famous. And often at times, it might be that they just one to try another famous person which is understandable.

In other words, both parties are doing it for the money.

I am not against it because that is reality. Money moves everything.
If the business is not making anything out of advertising popular fighters like Adesanya then probably they will let him go. It's not different from how Nike does things. I mean, look at how they just throw away Kyrie Irving after becoming the villain of a religious group. Now he is rebelling and putting tape on every Nike shoe that he wears.
This is also the reason why they are milking them as much as they could while their shine is brighter.

Just watching the highlights the last press conference these two had and was it heated!
So you exactly know what to expect to see in this one. About 20 minutes to go until it all comes down to this one match for Israel Adesanaya .

UFC 287 Pre-fight Press Conference:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AN9PCyWfZqM

Israel was saying he was going to turn Alex in Elisa and you know how that went.
Also fighting with the person right behind him schooling him on what hentai was after Strickland was telling him how he gets off at watching anime.
Israel was also commenting on how Alex couldn't speak english.
But this will different since he has learned the language fast with the last video of him speaking english.
So he must understand alot more since becoming champion.

So let's see what unfolds in this The Last Dance for Adesanya vs Pereira.

[Fivestar4everMVP]

This is big for Stake and I truly congratulate them for this achievement, it is also a great deal for Adensanya to become ambassador to the biggest and one of the most prestigious online casino in the world, it is really a deserving feet for both parties, and i say big congratulations ones again to Stake and Adensanya, I hope they both achieve greater things through this partnership.

[danherbias07]

So the weigh-in happened. No problem.

Now, we will just wait for the fight to happen. 1-day rest and we will see one of the big fights that will happen in UFC.
Two endings.
Adesanya is on the brink of retirement, I suspect. That if he ever loses this fight.
Pereira is to reign over the middleweight if he wins this one. But I doubt it will be as long as how Adesanya held the title. Wrestlers and Grapplers will start challenging him because they know what his weakness is.
I have already seen a lot of fighters waiting for this match to happen. If Adesanya wins, I doubt they will even try challenging him.

[rdbase]

Today is the day all Adesanya fans have been waiting for.
The day of vengeance has arrived for Israel so can he regain his reputation and put away the one who he has not been able to beat yet in his entire career outside the MMA and not in it?
He had a shaman stick at the ceremonial face-offs yesterday so to try and scare those demons away that have been haunting him for so long and had made him lose his title to Pereira.
We shall all witness in 17 hours from now.

And this could be his last if he lost this fight, but yeah I really hope not, and seeing him so much focus towards the fight if you see him in the press conference he is super confident aiming at winning against Alex Pereira, so for me, I am really positive about this like he is really now the Hunter ready for the kill, Well landing stake for him and in his, every fight betting for him will surely double your chance that bet on the stake that is for sure, so good luck to all bettors for Israel Adesanaya on stake.com,

Yes! Either way could happen and if My ears are correct Israel Adesanya has said that he will be very aggressive towards Alex Pereira, for me, Alex really likes that he wants Adesanya to be aggressive with him so he can counter this is looking good or even looking bad for him though but if Israel Adesanya is talking about the wrestling side to be aggressive in terms of wrestling then it could be a powerful tool against Alex Pereira, watching the training of the last style bender he is really preparing for a cardio fight against Alex Pereira he is looking on drowning Pereira for sure,

Not really into Shaman, but for me, it is bad luck bringing those, well it is just my culture, but as an Israel Adesanya fan I am giving him my 100% support for going to the Octagon to slay the boogie man and I think the Last Stylebender is hunting the BoogieMan now, and I have watched all of Israel Adesanya's training and all I can say is this is a very different Israel Adesanya that we are seeing right now, his style will surely change inside the octagon, but I really wish even though he will be aggressive inside the octagon there will be some technical aspect still got intact for him because that is the Izzy we know and love, but for me, this is a sure win for him,

Oh I'm so rooting for Israel I don't care anymore if I get called out as a bandwagon. His humor, his eloquence, the way he fights in the ring, the fact that he's a weeaboo (someone who loves Anime so much it became an extension of their personality), it just resonates with me you know. Not one to believe in shamanistic or the magical but I do hope ot works to boost his confidence and fend off those demons that have been haunting him since his uncharacteristic loss. Hope this is the fight that lets him reclaim his Last Style Bender for good and the belt too of course.

[danherbias07]

That seals the deal! He is the real champion.
As they said, you won't be called a real champion if you cannot defend the belt. Pereira was not able to defend his title and was defeated by Israel Adensanya in Round 2 by KO.
He said he played possum. And I do believe that's the right definition of how he won it. He showed a lot of skills today and it was damn entertaining.

Now my fear of him retiring or going up another weight is gone. He can get back that title over and over again even if it's stripped from him.
The hunter defeats the hunted and he put 3 arrows in him after he was knocked out. (Yes, I did count.)

And it was a 2nd round TKO for Israel Adesanya those Rituals even though I don't believe that surely help, really played a part for Alex Pereira to want to solidify a KO win again, you can see that Israel Adesanya has waited for the right opportunity to strike a counter and played possum for Alex Pereira to continue his onslaught not knowing that his strikes didn't really take effect on Adesanya but he still continues with his barrage, but as Israel Adesanya sees an opportunity he takes his right punch that always keeps on hitting Pereira even in their past fights it really keeps on hitting Pereira I think that solidifies an epic win against Pereira, but I really think he has trained his wrestling just for a backup plan, but as a StyleBender he surely win with an Epic Style to it,

That was great counting his arrow that strikes Alex Pereira surely a real champ is based if you can defend the title and with this match with the previous champion, just like what Leon Edwards did even though Edwards has casually seen grabbing Usman's gloves having a groin hit he still manages to show that he can defend his belt, but I really think Kamaru Usman really needs a long vacation and just chill out for a bit I really think he deserves that,

As for Alex Pereira going to this defeat, I think the next thing for him to do is rematch again? I really don't know but maybe to fight someone else to get back his confidence before taking a rematch to the champion, I really think that is the right thing to do for Alex Pereira, just chill for now and learn his English, just my advice to him,

So these two are 1-1. Most definitely another one is in the works but doubt for this year.

[robelneo]

So these two are 1-1. Most definitely another one is in the works but doubt for this year.

Why not we still have nine months this year anything can happen and there are a lot of surprises that are going to happen, Adesanya still owe Pereira two wins and this win is as spectacular as their second match in the Glory boxing where Pereira knocks Addy cold but I don't think the third match should be immediate, both of them should have one fight to other top fighters and if they can win dominantly in the top fighter in the division they can still have a trilogy.
It's bound to happen if both Addy and Alex stay in the middleweight or they can do it in the light heavyweight.

Based on the historical win rating analysis, Pereira is leading from Adesanya because he is still ahead of the previous 2 wins, it is likely that a trilogy fight will be scheduled soon for PPV, if you pay attention to the other fights of the Moreno vs Figueiredo trilogy, they are not booked to fight other fighters before completing the dispute between the two , they have fought 4 times because in the first fight the result was a draw. So the trilogy fight announcement should be coming soon, likely without booking a fight against another fighter.

He did! The madlad finally reclaimed his title against Pereira! It was spectacular I saw the fight online with my own two eyes and oh Lord must I say that was beautiful. That "playing possum" as he says it definitely paid off so well. Got nothing but respect for Izzy!

This will definitely shut the haters up and will go down as one of the most entertaining narratives in UFC history. Someone who uncharacteristically lost 3 times to the same opponent only to get up at the 4th bout and give him the knockout to end all knockouts. He definitely is worthy of this title!

[livingfree]

It could be.

My social media feed blown up because Israel has won against Pereira. It seems that the newsfeed of mine was into Israel instead of Pereira. And another thing that has blown my feed is about Drake's bet on Israel.

We can say that it is another exposure for its own sponsor but then, that's a huge amount that he's bet on Israel and he never was wrong with those as he won millions.

[Beparanf]

Once again this thread become active again due to the recent achievement of Adesanya to reclaim his title. His arrow after he knocks out Pereira makes many basher triggered because he just tied the score with his previous TKO loss. 

Anyway, Looks like Stake is on a win win once again since Adesanya is their ambassador and Drake bet on Adesanya will surely create a buzz to other gambler on betting with Stake sportsbook. The match is so good yet so quick for the long wait to finally this rematch happened. I hope that the 3rd match will be a decision result to fully show case both fighter skills.

Yes!
It is the first thing I've thought when I saw the win made by Adensanya since he's an ambassador and with force of Drake getting also the attention in social media made his bets on this match, also garnered a lot of feedbacks and engagement. We need to see that closure match of them and that's the decider match.

Yes but Alex Pereira has taken a medical suspension due to the nature of that knockout putting him out cold for several minutes.
The doctors that look after those fighters have already mandated he take six months off of fighting and the UFC organization has to follow this protocol for all their fighters.
https://firstsportz.com/ufc-alex-pereira-next-fight-what-next-for-poatan-after-brutal-ufc-287-loss/

As the article describes it, Pereira will probably go for a title shot with Jamal Hill but in a different divisional weight-class.
And Adesanya will probably fight the only other fighter who has beaten him Jan Blachowicz but then moving up a weight-class Pereira will be there waiting for him and then we can have that trilogy.

I personally would like to see Israel fight John Jones but the guys on MMAFightingSBN had already mentioned one fighter which would blow the masses away if they ever fought each other.

[TopTort777]

That is a common procedure in UFC that a fighter gets a six month vacation after being KOed or submitter. I really glad that modern MMA promotions follow that and dont let fighters have a new fight each month.

As to Pereiras future opponent, I doubt that this is going to be Jamahal Hill, as he probably gonna face Jiri Prochazka first (former champ, that vacated belt after shoulder injury). But definitely gonna see Pereira in light heavyweight, as people say he cuts 15-20kg to fit in middleweight. It is not just hard to cut so much, that is just dangerous.

They will meet again I am sure of it maybe somewhere in the future. And the fans might help push another battle against these two great fighters. It's so entertaining, so exciting, and unpredictable that it boosts the idea to repeat one more time.

Cool. I'd like to see that happen.
Adesanya still hasn't avenged his loss against Jan Błachowicz but I do believe he should savor the moment in the middleweight for now. Defend it one time and then go up another weight class again and meet that guy. But on whom he will fight in the middleweight seems to be a big question. Every fighter below Pereira already lost to him. If he finds there's no more competition there, he would probably go back to light heavyweight faster than we are expecting.

[rdbase]

After hearing that win of Drake's bet of Adesanya by KO I remember making the same bet but of course not for nearly a million stake amount on the bet, the odds were 4.10x on the bookmaker I had placed the bet on.

So that was a nearly 4 million win just on that one bet since it was $900,000 according to one source when I first heard of the bet placed.
That must of been on an instagram post or something because I still haven't seen the winning betslip of that yet.
But just ran into this video of Adin Ross who was a pretty big streamer on youtube/twitter before they disallowed them from livestreaming of gambling a couple of months ago.
