Adesanya stand up, pretty. Imanari roll, not so much. #TUF27Finale

Not looking good for Tavares!

Brad seems to be hesitating and not pressing the pace enough, letting SB work his game. #TuFFinale27

Another round of this and I believe corner should step in. Tavares is a good fighter but he is being outclassed here. #TUF27Finale

Tavares is fighting Adesanyas fight.

This is by far Adesanya’s best showing so far, against a very difficult opponent. Credit for shutting down BT so far. #TUF27Finale

Well @stylebender just passed a huge test in Tavares with flying colors. Dominant as can be. Won EVERY round. Whoever had it 49-46 was watching something else. #TUF27Finale

Not sure what Izzy is saying. I’m feeling it though! #TUF27Finale
