10 Of The Most Legendarily Bad Performances In MMA History 

"The 7th layer of hair" is going to haunt Colby forever

Holy shit, I'm starting to agree with Stephen A Smith, wtf... We didnt learn anything about Conor that night. He won one fight since 2016 and that was it.

Honorable mention for both Francis Ngannou and Derrick Lewis against one another.

Colby truly took him to the seventh layer of hair

I didn't expect Colby to beat Leon. But I also didn't expect him to leave his competitiveness at home. Buried 6ft under the backyard somewhere.

Till this day, I don’t think Stephen A was in the wrong. Cerrone notoriously chokes in his biggest fights, while he doesn’t outright quit, he mentally capitulates easily. MMA fans are just elitist and won’t accept criticism from outsiders even when valid.

I hate the "you can't crticize someone unless you can do what they can" attitude. I work in construction and I'm going to start doing that. "Excuse me, my house seems to be missing a roof." "Do you know how to build a house? No? Then shut up."

Ill never ever ever forget Rose vs cookie monster. That night she lost a fan. "Im the best" at the end of the 5th did it for me

SAS hit the nail on the head he just hit it too bluntly. But go to Cowboy talking about the fight afterwards. He confirmed everyrhing SAS said. He didn't sbow up. But for some reason people, MMA on Point included, OUTRIGHT REFUSE to show that part.

Derek Brunson letting jesus take the wheel against Whittaker has to be up there.

Stephen A was honestly right looking back at it

The biggest L for Colby vs Leon was Colby saying he knew he won that fight? 🙄 Apparently his head injury is still affecting his grasp on reality.

I love how the mma world always leaves out cowboy saying he didn’t want to be there that night and instead just shits in Stephen a

Hot take: Stephan A Smith wasn't wrong tho

Stephen A Smith had to go through so much Vitriol from the MMA " FANS" and also Joe Rogan tore into him but he was 100% right . Cowboy himself said he didn't show up lol .

Brendan Schaub's comedy special

Thanks for the time and effort you put into these videos! 👍

Stephen A was literally not wrong, Cowboy himself has said that he doesn’t show up half the time

Love y’all man. Glad to have been able to see y’all’s Channel grow the way it has

That I-Carly joke hit hard lol😅

What about the Derick Lewis vs Francis Ngannou fight? That should have been an absolute banger but failed massively.

Nunes wasn't still fully recovered from Covid.

Awesome vid guys!! Kee up the good work!!

Wild that Sean reached out and asked Alex to coach him and tighten up his game and now he’s champion. There was no doubt in my mind that Izzy could lose, but as the first round was coming to an end seeing Izzy get absolutely DROPPED was insane. We’ve hardly ever seen him hurt let alone get rocked and go down. Only times that come to mind was the TKO to Poatan and his fight against Kelvin where he got rocked a few times. Although a huge part is because he started fighting a lot safer. Regardless though, whether you like him or you hate him, you gotta respect an active champion. Plus before he even thought of moving up or down, he cleared his division. Now everybody wins the title, only has 1 or 2 defenses and wants to go for a second title

Where is Cyril Gane vs Jon Jones?! He didn’t even try to defend the Guillotine.

How do you not have Nick Diaz vs Robbie Lawler in 2021??? Nick was a great who came back and literally looked like he gave up on his feet. This list is plain wrong for not including that.

I’ll never forget watching Penn v. Edgar and seeing BJ just start literally walking toward Frankie with ZERO defense, head straight up (almost showing his chin to Frankie), and no defensive movement whatsoever. I felt so bad but just thought to myself “BJ should have retired 5 fights ago….FUCKKK”

My face when I hear Tommy's voice 😊

Izzy wasn’t gagging cuz he was disgusted he just wanted to imagine he was slobbing on Paulo

Hilarious how Joe didn’t speak up when face to face with Stephen A and then proceeds to trash him on his podcast, even brining up the “if you don’t fight or look a certain way, your opinion shouldn’t matter”, especially looking back how right Smith actually was. Rogan is embarrassing and a hack.

I know it's old, but I'm surprised Mark Kerr knocking himself out early in his fight at PRIDE 27 right after his redemption documentary came out wasn't on the list

Rose should be higher on this list. I’ve never seen a fighter go from beloved to instantly hated as fast as Rose. You almost can’t put her on cards now

Can Brendan Schlaub pls be on this

Cat Zingano is one of the most impactful, i have no doubt she woulda beat Ronda had she not come out like that, it completely changes history, where a lot of these other loses do not.

Great video

Objectively, maybe some fighters and mma fans are too sensitive for Stephen A's style imo. He can bluntly say an NBA player looked like dog crap the other night. But say that about an MMA fighter and fans will be like, "So disrespectful. Do you know how hard he trains and how brutal this sport is?" Like all of that is irrelevant. Did he have a shit performance or not? Idk. It feels like there is commentary and criticism that works for most or all other sports, but analysts need to walk on eggshells about MMA sometimes. Just imo

The Cat Zingano one was tragic - truly a smooth brain moment on her part to rush Rousey with a flying knee.

Colby Covington slander should cheer me up after this fucking awful week I've had.

PLEASE make a video about wins that aged well! You just ignited that curiosity in me, we’d love to see it!

Stephen was completely right sadly. Conor did nothing since that fight.

years later and MMA channels like these still gotta run with that narrative against SAS when he was right in hindsight

Stephen A actually had a good take there bcuz cowboy had a history of feeling the pressure in the big fights. He’s spoke about being nervous in any of his big fights that’s why he’s lost most of them.

Stephen A is the biggest poseur in sports. A few years ago, he was talking about a matchup between the Chargers and Chiefs, and he was saying how he was looking forward to seeing Spencer Ware play (out with a foot injury), talking about the incredible season Chargers TE Hunter Henry was having (has not played all year yet) and the matchup with Derrick Johnson (who was cut by the Chiefs earlier). The look on Tedy Bruschi's face was priceless.

But cowboy actually brought up that fight like last year and pretty much confirmed what Stephen A said. I remember because I was mad he ended up being right😂

The Nunes-Pena 1 fight was so weird. Pena was good enough that if Nunes wasn't trying 100% then she could overcome here. Nunes wanted to play with her food instead of getting the job done and that was enough for Pena to take over.

Fun fact, Amanda Nunes was recovering from a hurt leg and covid a few months before. All these things factored into that performance from Nunes

Love Tommy Toe hold episodes! slowly becoming the only ones I like. The vids of the guys talking on the mic is wayyy to dry for my liking

He was indeed a quitter…Cowboy even stated he quite gave up and looked for a way out. He just wanted a if money fight. He LITERALLY said these things

I think Amanda put the house on pena because of the crazy odds lost on purpose to make a shit load of money then got her belt back 😂

Gotta mention Silva vs Maia that was unreal. Maia just scooting on his back and Silva not doing much later on in the fight Dana also absolute raging made it even better 😂😂

Thank you Jason your the voice of this channel both the British dude

That iCarly line was fire

i think the cowboy conor fight is the closest ive ever been to agreeing with steven a smith, but his take on "lights being too bright" was stupid, it was just the fact cowboy was way over the hill and it was a tune up fight, in that sense we didn't learn anything about mcgregor that night

Wait I could've sworn Griffin against Silva would've shown up on here? I actually was waiting for it to be Number 1 lol

Chuck vs Tito 3. As a huge Iceman fan that was hard to watch.

Amazing how people give excuses for Nunes having a bad night but no one makes excuses for Cyborg losing to Nunes. Hmmm.

Sucks that ive been a fan long enough to have watched the entire fight to all of the compilation videos of UFC fights/fighters

Getting outwrestled by an English striker has got to be a really hard diss, no offense to English fighters. They produce some crazy boxers.

BOB Whittaker? is that the brother of Rob? 😂

Bob Whitaker i haven't heard it that way till now😂

Izzy gave Costa backshots, I don't know how that's not number 1 😂😂

7:26 lmao of course they included Colby’s “seventh layer of hair” line 😂

HAHAHA I completely forgot about that “squirt pillow” video 🤣🤣🤣

Claudio Puelles fight against Dan hooker shoulda at least have been an honorable mention on this

4:10 Bob Whittaker💀

i think adesanya vs stricland should be here.

That Colby's "seventh layer of hair"...

I could easily replace Peña vs Nunes with Rousey vs Nunes, it felt like when you play a fighting game on versus mode and player 2, Rousey, is left totally vague. It was like Ronda was never in a fight before.

Colby and connor are the prime textbook example of the "Dana previlage".

I will never understand the diaz hype, guy lost to anybody who was an upper echelon fighter, I think he’s got more losses than he does wins, and he barely speaks English and everybody loves him, I just don’t understand, is it because he’s just crazy tough?

The Cowboy absolutely didn't show up in thatfight and he is notorious for sucking in main event fights. So I'm with Stephen A Smith on this one.

Funny thing is that later cowboy said exactly what smith had said when it comes to the performance

You can really see all the weight Dana lost when you see him in yhe older clips. Him talking about Colby/kamaru clip I really noticed it.

Conor V Cerrone was exactly what the UFC intended for it to be, a squash match. Cowboy was shot by that point and was getting TKO’d in every other fight. He was one of the most chinnable fighters in the division at that point, nowhere near his prime, so the UFC fed him to Conor cause he still had name value and was very beatable. That fight meant nothing and proved nothing

Ion like Stephen A Smith but I gotta agree w/ him , cerrone literally said he didn't show up & that he was consumed by the moment

Congrats on being one of the few places I’ve seen correctly identify that chael tapped to an arm bar while escaping the triangle. If he hadn’t of left his arm extended like that, he probably would have escaped. I’ve seen so many videos saying Silva submitted him via triangle choke 🤦‍♂️ I don’t understand how all these years later, people still get that wrong lol

Gonna disagree on the Smith comment. He was right to criticize Conor. Cowboy didn't even try that fight. Conor had a man who was at his end.

Y’all should do a top ten on the most ridiculous and trash 🗑️ top tens that y’all made

We can add Mayra Bueno Silva scooting around the cage all throughout the fourth and fifth rounds of 297.

Should do a 10 greatest career turnarounds list soon

That Sonnen/Filho fight still haunts me the way the cage was apparently haunted during the bout.

The Colby fans not getting any sleep and I love it

What’s crazy, Donald said it himself that he didn’t want to be there. I can’t believe Stephen was kinda right.

Didn’t cowboy himself say what Stephen a said was tight

11:21 “I don’t think there was any mistake” pat berry when asked about pre ordering rose namajumas

There is no need to try and make this look like a 1940's newsreel. No need to add fake dust and fake scratches like this was actually recorded on film. Just makes it harder to watch, honestly.

I think Amanda was clearly still feeling the effects of COVID that delayed the fight once. She gassed HARD.

I never knew izzy beat Bob Whitaker

No Holloway v Kattar is crazy, it felt like I just watched a middle schooler get bullied for 25 minutes. “I’m the best boxer in UFC baby!”

If she hadn't been robbed by the judges in her 2nd fight vs Nunes, Thug Rose would have been a 2 weight world champion. If she secured a couple of title defenses at 135... she might be considered the GOAT.

Damn no Joseph benavidez vs Deiveson Figueiredo that's the most one-sided beat-down I've ever seen twice over when Deiveson missed weight and the second fight when he didn't

I’m a huge Rose fan but that title fight was the worst, most baffling thing I’ve ever scene in MMA

i havent seen the viddo yet but this is an intriguing top 10 idea

As much as I like Aldana, i think she should’ve been here

I cant remember the fight. It was on a ufc fight. One of the dudes kept running away and refusing to engage to the point where the other guy just wrapped an arm around his head and stuck his other arm through and walked around the cage like an elephant. Anyone know which fight i'm referring to? It was a long time ago and i cant remember who the fighters were.

Tyron Woodley vs Usman and everybody else afterwards. He had nothing for Kamaru and times looked down right scared to engaged with Gilbert Burns

Bob Whitaker 💀

Jesus that stephen guy was beyond annoying.

Babe wake up! TTH is narrating 🐐

TOMMY TOEHOLD IS BACK YESSSS
