It is nothing new for the MMA community to voice their disagreement with a judge’s ruling in a fight when two fighters equally demonstrate incredible performances. This time around, top UFC fighters like Israel Adesanya have harshly criticized the judges for awarding Amir Albazi the victory over Kai Kara-France.
The Last Stylebender is constantly vocal on social media, stating his discontent with the evening’s main event right away. Judges, according to Adesanya, ought to be held responsible for their terrible judgments, which can instantly put an end to a fighter’s dream.
“I knew them two will fuck it up!! Hoooow many times will they rob athletes of their moments of glory. Their money, their livelihood for their family. Fuuuuuuuck them cunts. They need to expire quickly and go.” Adesanya said on his tweet.
In the post-fight press conference, Albazi stated that the bout was tight and that this was not how he had anticipated it would play out. But the Iraqi fighter claimed that he once more demonstrated his strengths. The seventh-ranked 125-pounder yet thinks he merits a title opportunity in the upcoming UFC Abu Dhabi event.
I tweeted that before even seeing the scorecards because I knew them two will fuck it up!! Hoooow many times will they rob athletes of their moments of glory, if their money, their livelihood for their family. Fuuuuuuuck them cunts, they need to expire quickly and go.

Israel Adesanya’s next fight
Israel Adesanya last fought against his archenemy Alex Pereira in UFC 287 which took place on April 8 at the Miami-Dade Arena in Miami, Florida. Adesanya struck Pereira in the left side of the face in the fourth minute of the second round, ending Pereira’s reign as a middleweight champion.
The middleweight champion doesn’t have a set date or time for a fight right now. The Last Stylebender, however, has already begun preparing for his upcoming battle in the United States of America. Rumors suggest that it might be against Jamahal Hill, Khamzat Chimaev, Robert Whittaker, or perhaps Dricus du Plessis.
Who should have really won the main event at UFC Vegas 74?
‘The Prince’ and ‘Don’t Blink’ squared up in the main event of the evening at the UFC Apex facility in Las Vegas. Kai was defeated by Albazi by a score of 48-47, 47-48, and 48-47. The outcome sparked debate in the MMA world since many people believed Kai should have won.
According to the judges Amir is the fighter who performed better. However, many MMA analysts have expressed their thoughts in the opposite direction saying, Kai performed way better. In close contests like this one, there’s always a debate but end of the day the winner in the judges’ eyes remains victorious in the record book.
