Whitaker is doing a good job entering in off his left hook and jab.

Left hook from Adesanya and they clinch. Possible eye poke on the exit if not a headbutt. Quick restart though. #UFC243

Saved by the bell!!!

He just got flash knocked

— michael (@bisping) October 6, 2019

Ooohhhh! Great first round by Rob and then bang! Israel drops him with a left hook in the final second of the round. Might have been saved by the bell. I think you give Israel the round off that. That could have been a fight-ending shot. 10-9 Israel.
