Part 5/10:
Pereira's striking is highlighted as precise and powerful—he's capable of landing shots with little setup, which makes him a dangerous opponent. His ability to "wing" punches, combined with his knockout power, means a single shot could turn the tide.
On the other side, Adesanya is described as a more strategic, patient fighter. He is known for his jab, movement, and fight IQ, often frustrating opponents by controlling distance and breaking them down over time. The analyst notes that Izzy's recent fights have been more calculated, avoiding emotional reactions that could lead to mistakes. In his previous bouts, such as against Yoel Romero or Paulo Costa, he employed a measured approach and avoided engaging in wild exchanges.
