Heard someone say DDP fights like a gorilla on roller skates can’t unsee it now 😭😭
Whoever said that is completely unaware of gorillas.
like a gorilla looking for a banana…
Bro fights like Donkey Kong in Smash Bros
He is really top heavy hes like a bayblade
The face of Duplessis was looking like a gorilla for sure. He had much more damage than Stickland who just had a little cut. Yes it was a close fight. But it should go like always for the champ when it’s that close. Unless you try to do politic and try to shut the free speech out like a communist.
Dricus corner after rd 1: "He's tired" LMAO as Strickland is standing up waiting for rd. 2.
i think it’s for dricus to not feel discouraged bc he’s tired lol
Mind games for sure
round 2 actually 🤣🤣🤣🤣
sean got tired faster than dricus lmao
@@KillMoee hes not blind tho lmao
Sean needs to begin listening to his coach; that front kick just disappeared which would've been golden
Dricus kept closing the distance each round making it harder
@@robertbell6217 closing the distance because Sean wasn't putting that foot in his midsection
Me personally Sean won, but it was still a close fight.
@@NinjaDog4339 It was close. Being dominate and doing damage should win the day. What stood out. 3 things. The only round where it was clear cut was round 4 where Dricus dominated, the only round where any of them did. 2nd was Dricus takedowns, not much damage followed but Sean was taken down at least 5 times to 0. 3rd in Sean's favour was his jab in first three rounds. I know its round based scoring and every round was fairly close except round 4. Which meant Sean needed 3 of the other 4 rounds. And these rounds were close. I would of wanted Sean to win, but I have no problem with the result. My initial thoughts was Sean was not aggressive enough.
@@wokesickcouldn't have said it better
"He's tired" ive Never seen a man look less tired in the 3rd round of a title fight
Sean was more tired than ddp for sure
sean was extremely tired
Yeah that was a facade..
@@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx9656who was the one sitting down?
Direct translation is "he's tired", but it can also mean "he is fed up" or "he is weary".
that fact that dricus' trainer told him "he's tired" after the 2nd round is just ridiculous, strickland is a stamina machine.
Its called motivation
still lost
hes a jab merchant
Ask ChatGPT what "hy is moeg" can mean beside "he is tired".
Stamina machine??? 😂 Even one rounder no stamina no gas tank DDP look way fresher than Sean in the last 3 round LMAO
Strickland was gassed as hell in the later rounds though.
This Goddamn fight has been unavailable SINCE LAST YEAR!!! Finally I can enjoy it in youtube once and for all.
It was on january brother but yes
Show's how popular and in demand this fight was. Don't personally know how popular DDP actually is with the average person, but goddamn is Strickland ever popular with regular people... especially after his press conference beatdown on the reporter in Toronto
The fight happened this year…
I dont know why DDPs corner was trying to tell him that strickland was tired lol. Dude was standing in the middle of the cage before the round even starts 😂
Not even breaking a sweat 😂
after round 2, stickland could barely say, "Jep"
He was tired its obvious after 3 rounds.
Dricus Du Plessis got tired WAYY before Sean
@@NinjaDog4339 ddp could still throw more powerful shots in round 3,4,5
they’re so evenly matched it’s insane
yea coulda went either way, i saw it slight very slightly for sean though, oh well
@@RareBillbro what, sean got dominated
@@Fightfan2024 did we watch the same fight? 1 and 5 clearly sean, 2 and 4 clearly dricus. 3 is stupid close. how is that a domination 😂
@@wake777 YEa that FIght fan is a casual. It was VERY CLOSE. 1 and 5 to STrickland and 234 to Dricus but could of given sean 2
@CaseyC-yn7px Better than standing like a robot, throwing slow ass counter punches. He didn't even bother defending against them until the final round. He might have landed more jabs, but just like you said, DDP's takedown doesn't matter, neither do the jabs. He threw more combinations, elbows, landed more takedowns, and was 100% more active during the fight. Since Sean didn't want to fight like a champ, he lost the belt
This channel is gold 😂
Yeah, it is 💯💯💯
Indeed 👍🏼
@@frankieplascencia6160
😮😮😮😮😮😮
why it didnt get ban or deleted? (which is good) he has a lot of full fight collection
The reason why Sean has lost two close split decisions is that he absolutely refuses to mix his attack up. Sean should’ve been teaping to the gut all night and putting combos behind his jab. Idk if it’s a confidence thing or a cardio thing. If sean does those things he wins all 5 rounds against Jared and Dricus
I think it had to do with the takedown threat from DDP
@@adriaanvanheerden3271 true but Jared has no takedown threat and Sean lost that decision as well
@@whatsittoya4959 All Sean has in his arsenal is jabs,one twos, sloppy over hands, and a teep kick lmao.
He is used to just jabs. No head kick, no belly kick. No take down attempt.
@whatsittoya4959 he lost to the decision vs Jared not the fight look at the Stats and stop watching with emotions.
I know people will disagree with me, but I remember watching this live and this was one of the best fights I've ever seen. Both guys performed phenomenally, there were bruises and blood on both sides, such a close fight and at the end they both showed respect to each other. Granted I've only been following this sport properly since December last year, I'm sure there's other matchups out there I have yet to see but I think this was a great fight considering the build up and skill of both guys. Would be fantastic to see them both do it again.
jiri and glover was like this fight with more action and a finish. if you haven’t seen i def recommend watching it
@@allengarza9208 I've watched the UFC for about 15 years. To this day the most exciting fight I have seen is Gastelum vs. Adesanya. Look that one up if you can...👍
…as a hardcore fan myself I can agree that this fight for whatever reason flew under the radar afterwards and was under appreciated for how much of a war these two delivered. However yes brother I have to disagree and would definitely not put this in the category of “ one of the best fights I’ve ever seen “ . DDP did his part to edge out a decision but overall Sean still was the one to take more of the chances and overall show more heart of a champion then Dricus.
@@allengarza9208tbh even Jamahal and Glover was more of a war then this lol
How can the jab machine of strickland can be entertaining lol
Dricus corner: "He's already tired."
Stricklands corner : Sean is standing during the break.
LMAO
I thought when people don't sit on the stool because if they did they might not get back up could be either
@@hazeshi6779sometimes people in fighting don’t sit on the stool because it takes more energy to sit down and gets up then to just not sit down at all
@@frankiepavlik2114 I saw that on the boxing anime Hajime no ippo, one boxer was so exhausted he didn't want to to sit on the stool.
Its funny as fuk watching that "he's tired" bullshit while DDP is gasping for air on the stool looking completely fked. The only difference in this fight was the lucky cut.
Sean left it up to the cards and the takedowns and not being aggressive enough lost the fight.
Sean checked like 80% of the kicks. The announcers say it the whole fight
please sit down
@@pazo321 sit down ?
@@pazo321your mom is sirting on my face right now....just took a break
@@pazo321 Please, shut up. Here, have a Snickers cause you're acting like primadonna..
"He's already tired" Literally after the first round lmao. Y'all don't know Sean huh? Dudes basically the third Diaz brother the way he fights. Endurance and 50% volume punches.
Nick Doesn't fight like Sean watch Prime Nick Fight against Robbie Lawler 1st (2003), Nick vs Paul Daley , Nick vs KJ Noons different styles of fighting if it's Cardio part then I agree.
Different training regime. Strickland may do 25 round daily in camp
Diaz bros are triathlete level
The muscle mass is a tell
I get your point tho
Strickland has the cardio and toughness like the diaz bros but he has better technique and defence and much better kicks.
You mean pillow hand punches, that's why he can go for long, maybe he just doesn't have knockout power like a real MMA Champ would have.
@@JuiC30 it's not pillow punches, he just doesn't put everything into them , it's called strategy , he wears you down until you break. And also cardio is way more important then ko power.
how many times they will say punches or kicks “got through” when they didn’t?
I'm not crazy about the way DC & dom commentate , less instructions more commentating on what they are doing .
cruz and dc are bad commentators
It's almost like they're being paid and told what to say sometimes
Exactly. Strickland's stellar defense has to be one of the best in the game and he's making Du Plessis miss repeatedly. It's like Cormier and company have no ability to differentiate between shots that actually connect versus shots that miss. Terrible commentating and terrible judging.
@@CaseyC-bg4bbI honestly think they get told to say certain lines. Stricklands upright stance gets mentioned every fight , they say it makes it harder to check kicks but they are wrong. Kickboxers and thai boxers use the same stance and that's what allows mobility and the ability to check.
100 punches to the face, battering an opponents face doesnt matter to judges as much as a meaningless takedown with short control time. this fight was judged with feelings rather then, damage and dominance. you can always tell by how the commentators comments start to not match whats actually going on in the ring mixed with a conversations regarding score cards and start to favor the clearly visible losing fighter there will be a robbery. Dricus knows he didnt win this.
Bro it was a close fight, but to me DDP did more than enough to secure the win. He is clearly the more well rounded fighter, has good striking good grapling. Sean is too one sided. He was hiting a good tip kick in the first round and completely forgot about it in the next 4 rounds. Sean didnt do enough to win this in my opinion, although it was a close fight.
@@goncalocruz3336 if you consider DDP using his face to beat up Strickland hands then he def won that battle
@@combatible lolol i could say the same about strickland. But the diference is dricus kicked him everywhere and took him down as he pleased
Actually you couldnt say the same about strickland ddp was barely landing on his chin clean lol literally won the fight off a few takedowns with 0 damage done during them, and one cut he opened up on strickland. Just looking at pictures of both their faces shows who won lol @goncalocruz3336
@@goncalocruz3336 Sure DDP uses more tools, but they were mostly ineffective. DDP did the most damage with his overhand right and that headkick he landed, there was also an illegal headbutt that got through that Strickland didn’t even complain about. The scoring criteria says that damage trumps all, all we have to do is look at the two fighters after the fight to see who did more damage this is self explanatory if you think DDP did more damage you’re either blind or a dick rider. Sean outstruck him pretty much every round I think DDP took rounds 3 and 4 b/c he had Strickland really hurt but I’m pretty sure he still got outstruck in those rounds, but I’d give them to DDP. As for takedowns, simply landing a takedown is only a change of position you must establish a threat with the takedown either through ground and pound or submission attempts,simply landing on takedown isn’t scored for anything. Strickland won on damage and getting hit less, DDP has more power but it was very difficult for him to land clean, it was a close fight but I consider this a robbery 3-2 Strickland.
I remember how disappointed I was when I heard Strickland lost
Yes you where crying like a school girl
i just watched it again, worst case scenario, it should have been a draw sean won that fight 💯
I'm more disappointed that they're letting strickland fight costa, the guy is ranked 1 he should be fighting the top guys.
@@yan_2758not even remotely😂 Ddp 2,3,4.
@@sortakindageese ddp 3,4. 1 and 5 id obviously strickland, 2 is a close round but leans to strickland. idk what ur little brain is thinking about
Too controversial to not do an immediate rematch. Dricus didn’t go and take it like they say you have to it’s so 50/50 with I think Sean up very slightly
Dricus won, it was very close. I would agree based on the unwritten rule of really beating the champ to take the belt. But Dricus still gets the edge
@@hybrid.catastrophic.impact6071look at the headbutt though. Thats clear as day and yeah it might have been on accident but affected the fight regardless. Giving Izzy the title fight is ridiculous. Sean dominated him.
@hybrid.catastrophic.impact6071 nah i would say sean won
@@NinjaDog4339 Ofcourse you would, but he didn't
@@marcoeick6824 It wasn't a headbutt
When i watched it live i thought it was 1 2 5 for strickland. Now i think its 1 3 5 for strickland. Round 2 DPP pushed the pace and landed bigger shots, but in round 3 if were basing it off damage, strickland shouldve won that round since striking was similar.
i thought sean had rd 2
Watching live I also had rounds 1, 2, and 5 for strickland. I thought rounds 2 and 3 were to close to call but in retrospect I'd definitely give round 3 to ddp. He was way more aggressive, landed more shots than round 2 and got a takedown. 2 is still close and could go either way but imo, it's closer to being Strickland's round then 3 was. Overall, I dont see how anyone could be too upset with the result considering how close the fight was.

@@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx9656Dumbest Comment Award goes to you!
Misspelled boring
Never realized how effective Sean’s jab was when I watched it live. I think it all comes down to the 3rd round which could’ve gone either way🤷♂️
Thx for this man appreciate it
Love this channel, we can watch the full fights. Appreciate it :)
Yes 😊
Now that's the first time I've ever seen a fighter take a sip from a Monster drink between rounds, that shit is poison.
It’s water. They have to put it in a bottle with a Monster label due to the UFCs sponsorship commitments. Also why they hold an empty Monster can at the end of the fight.
I thought it was comical at the end when his corner guy handed Sean the empty can when they were preparing to give the post fight results and he tried to take a drink. Then realizing it was empty, tried to hand it back.
I might be crazy but it almost sounds like Dana reprimanding him by yelling “Sean” as if to say “No, you gotta hold that can!”
He looks up then begrudgingly pulls the empty can back to him as he realizes, it’s in the contract and he’s gotta hold it.
I noticed that too! Weird vibe.. I think they just put water in it though.
Наконец то а я думал полный бой никогда не найду
This fight was too close to give it to the challenger.. it was given not taken. Good fight
To me Strickland won this fight no doubt..
DDP won, but didn't do enough to convincingly take the belt
Dumb
Why does the champ get the benefit of the doubt? That doesn't seem right to me. If the fight was close, give it whoever deserves it -- don't just default to the champ, that's not fair.
Agreed he didn't do enought, besides Strickland landed way more shots
Still think it was to close to take the belt. Other close title fights went to the champ. You have to definitively take it
I thought the same thing. When a fight is this close it always goes to the champ. Definitely surprised but DDP fought his ass off
It was political sean talks too much for Dana.
no fk doubt about it..
@@RicardoMartinez-yk6gyi mean there has been alot of close fight that when to the challenger Dom vs TJ for example
DDP dominated the last few rounds i mean MMA is not just about boxing only, look at the sig strikes on body and the take downs i think DDP won easily on the cards
Strickland has a really good coach fr he jus needs to listen to him more
Thank you for new upload.
Hearing people announcing along with bruce warms my friggin soul a lil bit ❤😂
What the fuck is that dricus's corner advice "hes tired hes tired"🤡🤡🤡 he wasnt lol
Fr 😂😂😂😂 they’re like “he’s tired, he’s tired” meanwhile DDP is sitting on the stool and Strickland is standing on the line waiting for him not breathing hard at all 😂😂
Sean doesn't get tired
@The_R-n-I_Guy Exactly
Whatever, he beat him anyways
thats all you guys are commenting on when the real question is why Sean literally never listens to his corner. If he had he probably would've won the fight.
Thanks bro ❤
Amazing 🙌🏼
Honestly I thought the fight was close but I thought Sean Strickland won this one tbh
how can you think that, when he barely won the first round ?
@@deadlyicecream1I'm guessing the same way the vast majority of the people in the comments do
@@kujochurch3133 because you guys think it's a boxing fight, when it's in fact is a mma fight

@deadlyicecream1 so it's a wrestling match then according to u? It mixed martial arts not wrestling with striking martial arts
This was a backyard brawl for a title fight
Glad they didn't give that to Strickland. He was boring inthis fight. I'd hate to get in a street fight with DDP.
Thanks for posting this mate
I don't get it, how does sean see every punch and kick before they even come.

Great fight but I don't think Dricus did enough to take the belt.
‘Take the belt’ has never been apart of the scoring criteria 😂
Cry more.
It’s based on rounds.
DDP won 2-4, no doubt. And you fanboys who believed Sean’s lie, DDP cut his eye with a straight right early in round 3, followed by an elbow and many straight rights and hooks after- that round
Yo, if you watched that back, there’s no way driest one that fight rounds 12 and five are clearly to Shaun and you can argue around three
Exactly.......
lay off the vodka

Has anyone ever seen Strickland throw a left hook or an uppercut or is it just all 1 2s
THANKSSSSSSSSS
Idk man
Strickland definetely won 1,2 and 3 even though all were close
He either blocked or took 0 damage from each and every strike of ddp
While his jabs didnt do much dmg they almost all landed
Round 4 still should go to Strickland, aside from the cut, ddp didnt do any damage while strickland shook him a bit towards the end though i understand giving it to ddp cause of the cut
And strickland straight up bullied ddp in round 5
How can you score it 5-0 Strickland?😐😕
@@pitcobra_boncoc_ it was my impression of the fight man, strickland looked like he could go another 5 rounds after that
@@DimitriHellasonly correct was to score was 2 and 3 I think for dricus
@@leytonpettyjohn1540 i think 2 and 4 dricus. either way really close. but sean definitely outstruck him in r3
Round 2 was all Du Plesis.
Strikes were 17-18 but Sean had nothing but Jabs while DDP had head Kicks, spinning back punches and Hooks that did way more damage plus a Takedown.
Round 4 is all Du Plesis he landed way more hits,way heavier hits and did more damage had Sean looking like an Extra from the Walking dead.
Round 3 was close but i give it to DDP again. Even Sean's coach gave it to DDP.
Don't know where you see the Bullying in round 5. Sean couldn't even land his Jabs while still taking heavy shots
sean looked merciful, then got ate up
Finally ❤❤❤❤

@@SpencerDonahue Lol sean's entire fanbase is right wing nutbag mma casuals get used to hearing stuff like this.
Watching it live I kinda felt like Sean won but watching it more closely a 2nd time I actually think DDP edged out the W, It's all about R2, the other rounds all seem pretty clear. And I think DDP edged out R2, he pushed the pace, was the aggressor, landed the bigger shots, got a TD, and Sean just didn't do much, hit him with a handful of jabs, that's about it

Wow I didn’t get to watch it live and was not expecting this barn burner based on the media coverage. That was a battle! Sean looked great, missed some kick opportunities coming off those stuffed takedowns, but Dricus answers immediately whenever he gets tagged and obviously his cardio is not an issue. Awesome fight, would definitely pay to watch a rematch.

Ain't no way, damage is not a metric of fights, speaking about damage Sean was bleeding and swelling.
Close fight but Sean won rounds 1,2, and 5. To me round 2 is the closest call, but dricus doesn't land much, as opposed to sean hitting him with the jab. Dricus gets the takedown but does nothing with it and sean gets out quickly. 3 and 4 pretty easily dricus's. 5th goes to strickland.
i agree for sure. the Strickland fans and the Dricus fans act like it was clear when 2 was a very close swing round that determined the whole fight
dracus fights like a pro ice hockey player tho, but strickland shows hes a decent man by embracing dracus even for a second i love sean for that!
Sick upload bro👍
All respect for Du Plessis. A real fighter. But I'm still a fan of Strickland, even after the loss.
at least you aren't crying about a "robbery" like half the comments on this video lol
@@SpencerDonahue just because you want Dricus to bend you over and take you doesn't mean people are crying. People are pointing out the obvious win for Strickland. You can stop gargling his scrote.
The sad truth is du plessis got the nod because he’s from South Africa and what a great way to bring in fans to ufc by giving ufc exposure via a South African champion. If you think I’m wrong that’s your partiality talking because if you watch the fight without prejudice it goes to Strickland.
Tada!
i gave up watching round 4. So obvious strickland shoulda won. the bias here is painful. A guy said this was political above and his comment was removed

MMA Fighter rocks 😎
Close fight. Damage pretty even, volume also close. Ddp won because he was pushing the pace. 6 takedowns also didn't hurt.
I've heard so much about this fight. 1st time seeing it. I dont see how anyone has Strickland winning? I was expecting it to be way closer
Well it was extremely close and people's enthusiasm towards Sean tends to overshadow that. It really comes down to what you think counts towards a win. Strickland outstruck Du Plessis, was very good defensively, and arguably caused more damage. While Du Plessis was the one pushing the fight through being the aggressor and preforming takedowns (even if the takedowns didn't do much). And then there's the "beat the champ to be champ" belief were people just don't think Du Plessis did enough to justify a win/becoming champion. I personally give it to Strickland, but if you really took your time and explained all the things in Dricus's favor I'd still probably say it's a draw (which a draw during a championship match should probably go to the reigning champ). I'd like to see a rematch and hopefully get a more definitive outcome, because I like both of them and would like to see them as champs.
The highlight real only showed ddps GOLDEN and i mean GOLDEN moments but Sean just had way more on him through the entire thing. Also DDP had way more damage after this. His head blew up like a bruised pufferfish lol.
Sean was cut several times and leaked like a faucet. Sean landed mostly jabs, ddp landed over hands, body kicks, body blows, spinning kicks, some leg kicks, 2 high amplitude takedowns, etc. Hard to see damage on some of those, but they are still more significant than jabs to the most sensitive part of the face aka the eye socket
@@hybrid.catastrophic.impact6071Bro the bleeding was from a headbutt when strickland was against the cage. Yeah probably on accident but regardless its a headbutt.
@hybrid.catastrophic.impact6071 it was a headbutt clear as day Sean blocked almost all of the punches and kicks thrown by Dricus, And Dricus takedowns did nothing he took Sean down then Sean got right back up.
@NinjaDog4339 No it wasn't. Sean was cut in both the left and right side and was gushing. Dricus didn't head butt him once and he damn sure didn't do it twice.
@@marcoeick6824 Sean was bleeding with cuts to both sides of his face.
Big fan sirrrr
the ending 😂😂😂
Strickland’s heart wasn’t in it, it seems. He gave his belt away. In my opinion. He fights better than this. 🤷♂️
He fought as he always doea, Dricus is just better
Just because he beat Izzy the dog kisser in championship doesn’t mean he’s unstoppable.
@@screech5212 I did not say he was unstoppable. Nor did I mention that fight. I stand by what I did say.
@@acceptancebelieves1908 no he did not. He never exploded, as he does consistently. His heart wasn’t in it.
If he fought like he did in rounds 1 and 5 he'd still have his belt tbh, I think he was surprised by the pressure and choked, even his trainer said that he needed round five
I thought Sean won tbh, round 1/2 and 5
I fell asleep from the fight before this one and when I woke back up I knew I f###ed up
Jon Anik tried so hard to act like Strickland was winning but everyone with eyes saw DDP continually walking forward pressuring Sean. I would say 4-1 but 3-2 DDP was probably the right score
