Usman landed one of the cleanest slobberknockers I've seen in a long time. Roses head kick was beautiful. And the fact that Weidman snapped his leg the same way Silva snapped his is some Twilight Zone shit.
Not that it's relevant but I train at Upstate and I saw Chris not that long ago. My jaw dropped. Disbelief isn't even the word for it. What simulation are we living in?
Boy, today was VIOLENT! Wiedman's injury was gruesome and ironic, Shevchenko and Rose absolutely destroying their opponents, and Masvidal getting baptised was ironic. Special event
@altaf ahmadYeah pretty messed up, the crowd hates Jake Paul but supports Masvidal, yet Masvidal is best friends with Jake, then Masvidal gets baptized, Chaos😂
It’s crazy how just a few years ago ppl thought Ronda Rousy could beat Floyd Mayweather and now there’s probably 3 or 4 female fighters who are waaaay better than Ronda ever was
“There’s a market for that and he’s gonna make a couple bucks, good for him... but that’s not what I do, I do the best vs the best” Dana is a fuckin legend
Exactly. Can you imagine the NBA commissioner coming out and saying exactly what’s on his mind and dropping F bombs about newspapers. It’s so refreshing.
Check Deontay Wilder knocking out Luis Ortiz in their rematch. Whenever a Cuban's sweat leaves their head after a punch, their souls follow soon after.
Jorge: Where am I? Ben: First time? Reem: Welcome to the shadow realm Jessica Eye: One of us, one of us Curtis: Aye, keep it down guys. James Vick is trying to sleep Luke Rockhold: These guys are so embarrassing. Yo Zhang, let me show you how to swing a golf club Chuck Liddell: Alright, settle down everyone. Now, the reason I called this meeting.... Jake Ellenberger: Is it that new ball you can chew which is supposed to help strengthen the jaw? (I'm adding more as the comments give me inspiration haha, keep em coming)
@@comagin2451 If you truly believe that there's something commendable in losing 42k then you're a lost cause. Even Billionaires struggle making bets that big, their miserly nature is what lead to their affluence in the first place.
Usman got boo’ed because masvidal is from Florida and they were in Florida. Weili got boo’ed because Rose is American and they are fighting in America. Pretty clear cut to me.
You don’t have to Boo just because they aren’t on home turf, just don’t chant anything If you don’t like them. Why have to be negative and boo, They didn’t even do anything yet besides walking to the cage lol
As a boxing fan, it pained me to see an actual world class fighter like Regis Prograis subjected to that amateurish trash. 1st, he's on the undercard of a clown, then he had to deal with an idiot ref who didn't even know how to position himself to see if punches were landing cleanly or not, and then Prograis had to deal with a punk opponent who faked injury cause he was gettin his ass whooped. I felt like I got ripped off and I didn't even pay to watch it lol.
"What the fuck is going on back there... "Fuck the Las Vegas Review Journal. Fuck em." "The whole night was a holy shit moment." hahaha. I mean he is classic.
Dana white hangs out with RU-vidrs like Nelk. They do a lot of dumb shit but still they do business with merch so I don’t see why he’s so hypocritical with Jake
This UFC event took my breath away, had me on the edge of my seat and off my chair at times!. Hats off to UFC for a great card for the first event with fans since the beginning of the Pandemic...... 🔥🔥🔥
Completely agree. Absolute dominant performance and Dana said himself that Jessica is a real threat to Valentina, yet she clearly wasn't. Surprised that Valentina was so dominant on the ground against a very talented BJJ black belt
This was one of the best UFC events hands down. Even the Weidman thing just made it that much more surreal. What an amazing night of fights. Hopefully everyone heals up speedy fast and we get to the next one. #StillourBoy
Yeah man, all the preliminaries were fire! It was worth the money! Although I wish I hadn't seen Weidman's leg twist like that, way too painful to watch.
This Card is definitely the single best Card in the History of the UFC. You take everything into account, the knockout's, the the injuries, and the Title Fights, all in all the single best card ever!!
i mean UFC 217 gives it a hard run for its money. ik the main card wasn't all finishes but 3 title fights 3 title changes 3 finishes not to mention GSP came back so yea im kinda split between which card is btr
Nah ufc 205 for sure was peak Connor, Woodley and wonder boy out on a war and a flying knee knock out, this was quicker yes but 205 will always have a place in my heard
A lot of people don't like usman because they don't understand him. But me i always understand what he meant. When he beats colby again there is absolutely nobody else in the division.
MAJOR GSP vibes from Usman. I'm pretty sure GSP is the only guy to whip out his division twice. Bj Penn twice, Matt Hughes, twice, Koshchek twice. Kamaru is no joke.
@Ragnar evey single one of them is on something bro, you're naive if you think otherwise. Colbys cardio is sus as fuck. And FYI gsp wasn't clean either.
@M B Wonderboy gonna be Usman's biggest challenge by far. Ppl need to stop the Colby talk while Wonderboy is lurking out there looking on top of his game
@@mattreyes4803 you have to give Conor some credit. He got a lot of eyes on it since his fight with mayweather. Plus him in general. I’m not even a Connor fan but I always heard his name and even though I didn’t watch mma
@@garrymiller3171 Yes, Dana, Conor, and Joe are the ones that made UFC this popular. Maybe add Ronda as well. I mean ask people how many MMA fighters they know, people would only come up with Conor, so he's defo a legend of the UFC
There's no curse. Usman is just better, deal with it. Conor lost not because he's bald. Dustin was better. Go and study black magic and astrology then if you have to look for this kind of bs excuses
Journalist: Dana you've often said that you're in the business of providing "holy s***" moments to fans." Masvidal: "Holy s***, that Nigerian dude hits hard."
Valentina's consistency hurt her a little, I guess. Usman and Kamaru's performances were unexpected, especially Rose's, whereas we're accustomed to those kinds of dominations from Shevchenko by now.
@@SpyroTek Im sure no one was happy to see it happen but the fact that it happend to Chris while fighting Uriah for the 2nd time who’s coming off a win of Silva just made the event crazier
We all already knew that Nick was going to make a return specially after some of the pictures posted of him in great shape,completely shared and then they tried to mask saying he was training for a Jake Paul possible fight after Jake called him out,what he is probably going to talk to Dana since he is not under a ufc contact is that he is on the position to make some of his own demands and say that if they don’t like it he will take the fight with jake something that a ufc fighter can’t do without the ufc permission first
@@wesleybrilhante5989 bro why you acting like anyone anywhere other than nick diaz has any idea what he is gonna do lol 😂 I'm not gonna hold out hope till he's throwing punches man those diaz brothers are so damn unpredictable
@@jda8557 You're not a real mma fan if you call the Diaz brothers unpredictable. They were the go to short notice guys for the UFC/Strikeforce. It was a combination of the commission's politics and the UFC never offering them full camps that made them into the rebellious people we know them as today. All Nate wanted was a full camp the moment he got that (Masvidal, Edwards) he signed immediately.
You helped me pay my rent... I slang beers at the stadium, thank you for bringing this to Jacksonville. It keep me working and able to feed my daughter and pay my bills. Great card! Much love Duval! We did it safe and had fun and showed the world what we do in sports entertainment
That was one of the best events I've witnessed. It had it all. Tears of agony, tears of joy. I thought I didn't really miss the crowd, but man I was wrong.
@@tyler-bb6el I can only imagine hearing the snap of Weidman's leg in empty arena, then watching him roll around in agony as his screams echo into the silent darkness. It would not have been nice.
Why? I’m more one the side it would’ve been a miracle if Weili won, she’s a beast.... but Rose.. Thug Rose Namajunas has some of the most amazing striking we’ve seen in women’s MMA , and her ground game is superior as well.
@@MartinAston00 And what progress she made. Look at her fight with Kowalkiewicz 5 years ago. And from that she went to comfortably beating high level multiple muay thai world champ in joanna.
Rose just has to believe in herself like she did for this fight and that belt will be hers for a long time. She is the example of what true martial arts is intended to do for a person. She shows respect, she is a gentle soul that earns respect from her peers and her fans through hard work. She exudes confidence without arrogance. Congratulations to Thug Rose and her team🌹👏.
Only alone Valentinas celebration dance is worth a performance of the night like come on man she dominated every second. Give rose a knockout of the night
@@surgeonofdeath8280 Masvidal has never been ko'd or even seriously hurt before this in 50 pro fights. The win itself isn't impressive but the way he won is.
that’s what everyone’s talking bout wym 😂 ariel and dc talked about how he was the true winner that night , chael talked about it , mma pages were talking about it
I was not on the train at first with his initial grinding style...but my God dude is going straight beast mode now. He is IMO already one of the GOATs.
I honestly think that some of the fans that McGregor and Masvidal brought into the sport (love both fighters btw) would think GSP is boring. Fans of drama, not martial arts. Usman is not about drama, but is a man amazing artist, and he painted with Masvidal’s sweat in this fight.
20:40 Media guy: Earlier this week you mentioned that Jon Jones wants 30 million pay for his fight against Ngannou, Jon Jones tweeted later claiming that he doesn’t want that, can I get your thoughts Dana ? Dana: OK 🙄 Media guy: ThANkS DaNA🥴 😂😂😂
John Morgan just knows the timing to speak up, I bet he's like "Aite, *stands up automatically stretching his shoulders* yea I was gonna say I mean...."
Best card i've seen in a while from the UFC!!!!💯 Another excellent performance from the Nigerian Nightmare🔥👏🏿 Usman keep making us Nigerians proud brotha🔥🙏🏿👌🏿🇳🇬🇳🇬 All around great fights/finishes and upsets thoroughout this entire card. Soo glad to see the fans back! #UFC261
@Danny Reyes Thanks man! Im glad to have a champion like Usman representing us. I hope he keeps this postive/humble attitude and doesn't become arrogant. Tbh I'm a big fan of Masvidal so it did suck to see him get KO'd lke that, i wish Usman had saved a punch like that for Colby lol or a fighter thats extremely disrespectful.
When I saw Ben Askren at the weigh ins, it all clicked. They paid Ben to lose (KO was still legit), that's why he was so calm and cool with losing before the fight. Jake's win would make him so much more money in the future through social media beefs they could pay Ben to lose.
Ohhh yaaaaa. It was 100% fixed. Jakes a part owner in triller, snoops a part owner and theyre betting huge money on their own fights which is suuper shady
@@jahimuddin2306 yeah but Ben gave so little of a fuck it's sus. He didn't even try to get in shape. I'm telling you, Jake Paul is an idiot but this was "calculated" if not fixed.
@@alexkorami6679 that isn't nitpicking homie. I'm not implying any type of thing I'm saying he was very composed for just having his clock cleaned. I guess nice try tho a for effort
@@benthicdaddyaskren9827 Kopf hoch. Ist überall das selbe. Amis gehen halt besser mit der Situation um als wir. Aber wir sind auch bald wieder in unseren MMA Gyms. Bin schon gehyped 💪.
@@sterlingarcher2653 ich würde es gern positiv sehen aber realistisch gesehen wird das noch dauern. Mich hält der lockdown in allen bereichen in meinem leben zurück, die zeit krieg ich nicht wieder. Aber mal sehen^^
its not that shevchenkov's performance was not as good as Usman and rose's, it was just as good, but everyone was expecting her to perform that way. Still she made it seem even easier than we imagined . One of the greatest female fighters we have seen. Definitely deserves to be talked about more.
Nah I call cap. No disrespect to rose but Valentina definitely deserved it more than her... She had a better performance than rose.... Obviously rose Tko was beautiful but as it relates to performance Valentina and Usman had that shit.
