I get the same feeling and I don’t know why. Like, maybe his game is missing that killer instinct lately. He can decision almost anyone and hang around the top 3-5 for years to come but it feels like the title eludes him. That said, in an alternative reality Pereira finishes Izzy for the second time, and Rob fights him, immediately takes him down and gets the belt back. It is what it is.
I will always love Bobby Knuckles but I think his time might be over. Du Plessis is a MONSTER.

Sucks, but I agree. He winds up being a gatekeeper for the top of the division. I’m a big fan, so this was tough to watch.
