#facts I'm from Cleveland met both Bron Bron And Stipe he went to my highschool but it was literally 1 after the other Stipe got the strap Bron Grabbed the Chip it was lit in Cleveland for real the biggest sports parade in the USA with 2.4 million people in 2016 look it up
+tuti rabbit Yes,Dos Santos is one of the best fighters and it's not a shame to lose from him,but there will be possibility for revange and than we'll see.. ;)
It's pretty gay when you're not even born and raised from a country that you try to represent. Just like Cain with Mexico. Its like Obama repping Kenya instead of USA because his Dad was from there. So gay
+Badaa TV He is not NEAR at Crocop, Crocop was a champ with 22 years. Stipe is 33 and and will be done in 2 years. Crocop had more than 50 fights in his carrer in Age of 33
You cant bet on something on an event that cannot happen. Btw, In 2005 Cro Cop lost to Fedor and Hunt, so you can say that he was in his prime 2006 when he won OW Pride. Only 7 months later he got badly defeted by Gonzaga. Pride of the day and UFC now are different levels.
Yea I know lol the crowd is biased though it was in fabrico home country lol no way they were cheering anyone other than the brazillians ffs Matt btown got punched by 3 different fans on his way to the octagon lol
To kiroful your comment showed up in my notifications but won't show up when I go to comment but yea go to the UFC on fox channel on RU-vid and look for the titled Matt brown hit 3 times by fans
I am from and live in Cleveland Ohio. I am SOOO proud that we finally have a champion. Sure, the Browns, Cavs, and Indians are fun to watch, but Stipe is a fuckin boss. I had the honor to have met him in Cleveland one day, such a humble, down to earth kinda guy. *VERY* deserving of this title. Champions should be champions in *AND OUT* of the octagon, and Stipe is that kind of champion.. Love you Stipe, keep on being the man, and the hero Cleveland needs!!
+Van Boy i think he thought that Miocic was feeling something..like..Miocic got wobbled and went for a finish..either that or he got all excited with that crown and went for it..
Every fighter is prone to mistakes, not necessarily the coach's fault. Still Rafael Cordiero is the GOAT coach because he consistently produced so many world champs across generations like Wanderlei, Shogun, Anderson, RDA, Werdum etc.
Those fans had no class. Who gives a shit the new champion isn't from your country? Show some sportsmanship and congratulate them on their win. It's completely bogus that they cheered for Werdum AFTER he lost his title more than they cheered for Miocic. That is not giving Brazilians a good reputation.
hi4827 I understand, but it comes across as disrespectful when you don't congratulate a new champion for their hard work. You don't have to like them, but I think you should at least show some respect. Feel free to disagree.
When Stipe knocked out Fabricio I genuinely thought the speakers had broken on my TV. Absolute silence lol. I guess they should stop chanting " you're gonna die" now. What a bunch of wankers. A big Matt brown middle finger to you Brazil.
+peeekar I'm not in USA you mong, the only thing Croatian in him is his name, My family are from Ireland but I was born in Scotland, I'm 100% Scottish, he's 100% American Not a mention of Croatia in his speech so forget about trying to claim him when he isn't claiming you
+Ewan Flean he said Cleveland, it was hard to hear the Croatia mention for his raspy voice just after it to be fair it sounds more like he's shouting out Croatia as an afterthought for his parents more than him sounds like he's Cleveland proud first & foremost & Independent fans would acknowledge that instead of making ridiculous claims he's 100% Croatian
+Brent Rogers My god, talk about getting to the party late. Everybody knows Werdum has arguably the best BJJ in the UFC. The dude was the first person to beat Fedor.
+Graham Van Dyke barley beat him he was rocked so bad and ethir nate diaz bj Penn have the best bjj and Frank mir is definitely better then werdum in bjj
Mel Dedara Actually no, I did enjoy the fight but when the crowd yells at fighters saying "take off his head" then it does kind of show some cave-men mentality. If me pointing that out makes me less classy then im all for it. Also, want to make it clear that I have nothing against Brazilians whatsoever.
Clearly, you haven't watched press conferences/weigh in's and so forth with Fans from both of these countries. If you did you'd understand that almost every single time the same things were said to fighters not from the same country. And it's not getting any better, clearly. I also clearly said IRISH or BRAZILIAN fans, never said the whole nation. I stand by my point bud, get it? Peace out.
Hate to throw the topic off MMA here but by your "logic", If i said ISIS are a bunch of terrorist then I believe that all Muslims are as well, which is far from the truth. Great article by the way that you showed here but the truth is its majority of the Irish and Brazilian fans that act hostile to opposing fighters. And believe me, I know its not all of them. Anyways, You have your opinion and I have mine. Take it easy bro.
The curse of the UFC champion: Win the belt in prime fighting condition, take years off while a contender emerges, spar with people while your challengers fight each other and improve dramatically, step back into the octagon with the best up and coming fighter who is on a winning streak, lose quickly.
+Chuck Norris lol I'm an American and love miocic for winning he has no chance however of holding the belt same as any of them will be saying the same thing about overeem when he wins which he will
Only his name is Croatian, he's 100% American He didn't even have the courtesy to shout out Croatia in his speech so just forget about it alright Not Croation, get over it
+King Ado born in America, Nationality listed as American And you call me an idiot, you nationality is where you are born for fuck sake, not your ancestors heritage
+TheDjOfChoice listen again his speech and you will hear him mentioning Croatia with Cleveland. He could be born in a plane, what does matter is his blood, not papers, and his parents are pure croatians
it's actually kind of true what you said. They have so much power, that you can get ko with just a soft punch. Every one can become a champion at that division.
lol. Right after you said that, the belt stopped getting passed-around. Stipe has held the belt for virtually 4 years (eye-poke ko by DC doesn't count).
+Mitch Butcher You are an idiot for raising the race card, White, Brown or what ever race creed or religion. who cares, the guy won, he will lose one day too. lets not forget that whites are NOT the dominant color in the world these days, all I am saying is try and be positive and lose the negative crap.
Just as Jose Aldo showed no respect to Conor's power, Werdum showed no respect to Stipe's power & that arrogance cost him everything!!! I don't care how big or strong you are, you never ever chase recklessly after your opponent like that because all that ever gets you is a nice early nap & a headache when you start waking up!!! Big congrats to the new UFC HW Champion of The World: Stipe Miocic & congrats also to his hometown of Cleveland, 1st sports title they've earned since 1964 :) That being said, enjoy your newfound glory while you got it Stipe my friend because if the rumors are true than your 1st title defense may end up being against Alistair Overeem...Yikes :(
+DragonHeart613 both werdum and aldo are to focuse on mcgregor rather than their own shit. you got werdum calling mcgregor a prostitue and aldo going balls out on mcgregor after the loss but i understand aldo cuz mcgregor jmentally raped aldo. werdum on the other hand is focused on the wrong guy, both of them in fact.
Aldo rushed in and got dropped Werdum rushed in and got dropped What are these Brazilians drinking before the fight? Surely they don't expect not to get found out by two of the best strikers in the UFC. Crazy stuff
Werdum's boxing was never that great, Aldo has really good boxing. Werdum rushed in with a barrage of punches while Aldo threw one full power left hook right at the beginning with everything he had
+Chief Brandon dumbest comment I've ever heard from anyone congrats. make fun of them but there still the best fighters on the planet. name an american who held the belt as long as jose, renen, or anderson.
+Breezy yeaa but ufc championship doesnt count for the city... and the raptors finna spank the cavs back to cleveland...so you have to keep waiting lol
Yea not really ..I guess cleveland can claim it. but when he loses it .. its not gunna mean shit(not that it really means shit now) ..its not like a superbowl or something where u truely CANT take that away from the city.
