***** they don't like anybody who's not brazillian. They are xenophobic to the bone. I'm brazillian, so I know what I'm talking about. Hope they get better in the future.
Bauermayers Yeah I have to agree to some extent. When Chad Mendes went down to face Jose Aldo he was getting death threats from Brazilian fans. If it was Chael Sonnen I could understand even though Chael is only joking around when he talks shit. But Chad Mendes? He never said a bad word about Brazil.
Tim Kennedy congratulations for more one great victory i have sure Tim Kennedy will be one day the UFC Middleweight Champion .Tim Kennedy a huge and Complete fighter.A True Soldier,A True Fighter,A True Warrior.
***** i agree.Beat C.Weidman or V.Belfort is very hard but who knows,maybe in the future Tim Kennedy wil become a UFC Middleweight Champion.Thanks for your opinion.
Anyone who says the fight was rigged has probably never seen MMA before. A lot of have people have just flopped like that, that's what happens when your brain automatically shuts down from a fight ending strike. Johny Hendricks did that to Jon Fitch and Martin Kampmann in the first round with a left hook!!! Watch some MMA for once.
not rigged tim was just never gonna lose he was a better fighter than the other guy and this was his fight in front of troops there was no way he was gonna lose
You could have shot him, stabbed him, tried to blow up his transportation en route to the hangar. He wasn't going to be stopped. He'd have caught bodies all the way to the arena before putting them hands on Natal.
How could you NOT consider this a TKO? After Tim's left hook lands on his opponent, the fighter's legs collapsed from underneath him and he falls onto his back. Down the back of his head slams against the metal caging of the octagon. After Tim clears the distance he is able to take three swings and his opponent never lifted his arms to block. The ref would have to be insane to not call the fight right then.
This is the fights game people, really? This is not fake ass WWE stuff. Tim Kennedy had "home court advantage" in many ways fighting in front of his brothers in arms. IDK how many of you have performed in front of people you NEEDED to impress, but you always rise to the occasion.
lol @those guys calling it fixed ..,MMA fights are not fixed. Anyway, what this guy did was heroic, all the other service man lost their fights so all the preasure was on this man.
Raphael Natal looked really small compared to, Tim Kennedy. I personally thought he was winning up until he got knocked out lol. Tim Kennedy better stop talking crap about, Vitor Belfort though cause that wouldn't go too well for him at all
not surprised that the christian military man throws in some extra shots when his opponent in obviously out, the difference between someone like kennedy and machida is infinite
***** I understand what he did was within the rules (even though he was still throwing punches when dean started pulling him off), but his job is not to beat an unconscious man. but ur right, why would I expect a christian soldier to actually b the noble warrior theyre promoted to be, they've been some of the worst people for centuries
Dont believe everything you read, im sure you dont know any Christian men! your just trying to find ways to insult people and your just making yourself look ignorant and stupid just stop now and stop emberessing yourself!
mharley284 you two are both fuckin' idiots. His job is to keep attacking until the ref pulls him off and not stop until that moment and that moment only.
no ur a fucking idiot, im criticizing his character, thats why i compared him to machida who just layed out munoz but didn't keep hitting him, i can only imagine u dont understand my point which i clearly stated because ur a dumb hick from texas, so how bout this there is no god, the south is gay as fuck n please secede ur not wanted the cartels will own u in about 2 wks
The fact that you subscribe to a particular faith has ZERO to do with the end of that fight. Amazing job on the finish. But as the guy below days it is interesting the Christian man looks to take advantage of his opponent when he is already out.
I'm not sure why you had to call out his religion, as he never used it in any context save to say he loves the troops slightly less than jesus lol. Also, he acted like any other fighter and acted upon his military training to make sure his opponent was down. Not to mention that the ref didn't end the fight lol. If you think it's not Christian like to take advantage of a downed opponent you probably haven't read the bible very much :P
You are totally right in that I was being a douche bringing up his religion as he didnt make it as big a deal as others like Vitor who recently literally said 'I am the living themple of god.'. If you watch the post fight after the Hendo KO he says that. But your right here it was bullshit. I don't accept the argument that you cannot stop hitting a guy before the ref comes in. First of all refs are shit and allow you time to take advantage so to speak. Tim was over him and was going for shot after shot on on already out opponent their and that shit is so wtf. If you watch the Machida KO over Munoz you see Lyoto raises up the right ready to strike but seeing its not necessary he doesn't take advantage and the ref stops it. Tim didn't do that and I hate that shit, Rogan talked about it with the recent KO from Amagov. Talked about taking unnecessary shots when you are out. Sooo it just gets to me but I totally grant you I was rude with regards to religion. However what I meant was I thought that religion was supposed to be about compassion and when your trying to hammer a guy who is already out in the face its so wtf. Peace for all those religious and fighting abroad.
I completely agree with you about Vitor hahaha. I see where you're coming from with the strikes to a downed opponent, but that has always held a bit of ambiguity for me. Flash ko's do happen, and I think you should always make sure your opponent is actually out, but at the same time hitting your opponent when he is clearly out cold is a dick move. Of course I can't really speak with any authority since I have never fought in the octagon, these are just my thoughts. As far as religion and fighting in a cage are concerned, I tend to agree with Chael about that topic haha. Oh and thanks for responding rationally and not being a complete douche about it. It's quite sad that a minority of people approach subjects with reason on something as unimportant as the youtube comments section. Anyway I'm hoping to see great things from the fighters who fought on this card. A lot of talent there, I think.
It has always seemed to me the normal route of communication to be polite but don't get me wrong I know I can really offend but I do try to respond rationally so thank you. You have also written both times very rationally and politely so thank you too my friend. Do you mean because Chael never mentions his particular denomination? I know he has never had a drink which could be a religious thing I always thought but there you go. He doesn't preach about it and so I don't know. One of my good friends is this kind of person. The type that you would never know they are religious unless they told you. I understand for some people it really helps them focus and stay true to their goals which I can really respect but I mean take Jon Jones. I don't know many born again Christians that have crashed their car drunk driving. The thing that gets me about it is I know many religious people and none of it makes sense to me. Why would anybody seriously try and make the argument that two people that truly love each other regardless of their gender cannot get married wherever they like when you have drive through marriage casinos in Las Vegas. The argument that the couple who truly love each other is destroying your sanctity of marriage is pathetic and ridiculous argument. Ultimately the answers come down to, well it says in the book. It also says in the book right beside hating gay people the selfish is an ABOMINATION!!! It is in Leviticus I believe. I know the vast majority of my Christian friends eat shellfish so the illogical history of the religion really gets to me with regards to people who try to justify it and use it for things 'God made me win this fight.', I get you are religious I get you have a connection their but it comes of so unbelievably narcissistic. The concept that with Typhoon Haiyan on the other side of the world that's center mass was the size of Germany. No, its your fight God had a hand in, not the thousands of dead people on the other side of the world. So God had nothing to do with the horrible terrible consequential shit but the completely inconsequential personal goal he is making sure you succeed in. It just really gets to me. I have nor read every book of the bible but I have a lot of excerpts and the number of completely over the top INSANE suggestions it makes that 99% of Christians today sweep under the rug. I am sorry but if those are the words of God they are either eternal or they are not. If your neighbour steals your shit are you gonna go over and fucking hack him up with an axe? In the Old Testament it says your good to go! So the way people use religion can really bother me. It always feels like they don't really know what their book tells them to do. If you wana begin to interpret it than that's fine but you can't claim so fervently this dude in the sky with sandals exists. The words in those books are either eternal or they are not! And they are not. The world is not a couple thousand years old!!
Lol I get what you're saying, but I'm not really in the mood for a theological debate right now :/ And as for what I meant about chael: "These guys are fist fighting in a steel cage for a paycheck and the applause of a drunken audience. Don't pretend to be something you're not. And don't bring up God. As a devout Catholic I'm tremendously offended when somebody acts as though God is playing a hand in a fistfight on Saturday night. Newsflash people: God has better things to do."
Everyone bashing Kennedy for a couple of "late hits" and being a Christian are clearly just hatin. Chill out guys, there's plenty of non christians too who cheap shot but i guess that's okay since they don't believe in God right? Go figure
I think this fight may have been fixed so that the military guy had to win. I mean come on they couldn't have him lose in front of that crowd. And it seemed like Natal just flopped down when he got hit right at the end of the round of course,they wanted to have atleast a full round for the fans and to make it look convincing.
Right. Getting punched square on the jaw, clearly, with clean follow up punches. Come on. He flopped down because he got knocked out. That's what happens. If Tim face Machida as planned, you think the same result would've happened? If it was "fixed", I seriously doubt they would give Kennedy the nod over Machida.
joseph godbout People are ignorant of Kennedy cause I'm assuming these 'MMA fans' are more just UFC fans and never saw him in Strikeforce and how good he really is.
Doesn't it piss you off that all the best most kick ass athletes in all sports have faith in god? I know it sure makes me happy when all the people that let that fact bother them are the hero worshipping spectators that couldn't perform athletically if their lives depended on it.
Revisiting this after reading “scars and stripes.” Legendary.
Brah same what a weapon of a book
@@modernexistence4206 one of them “get off your ass and train” books
Just got done with it myself.
Same here!
Same!!!
can somebody please post where he jumps on the cage and gives honor to the troops right after he wins
After reading Tims book about this fight it hits different!
Once again, great for Tim to get a win like this, of this caliber. Then, IN FRONT of the troops, it had to feel amazing.
Also props to the US Army, they very respectful and polite, unlike brazilian crowd who always boo and insult foreign fighters -_-
I'm brazillian and agree with you.
***** they don't like anybody who's not brazillian. They are xenophobic to the bone. I'm brazillian, so I know what I'm talking about. Hope they get better in the future.

piss off loser every time a british fighter fights in the US he gets booed
whenever a fighter says something about God, Joe just goes blank face
Fedora moment
Listening to him talk about this in his new book, he really explains how exciting he was to be there
Tim Kennedy congratulations for more one great victory i have sure Tim Kennedy will be one day the UFC Middleweight Champion .Tim Kennedy a huge and Complete fighter.A True Soldier,A True Fighter,A True Warrior.

LEGEND, miss his fights.
I love it when a former military bro fights in the UFC and wins the fight in front of their military brothers and sisters
He's still in

@@paulj8053 thanks
Tim Kennedy is the freaking man!
Plus if you watch, Herb Dean didn't run in to stop it, he tried to let Natal recover so of course u gotta keep going!
Outstanding Tim! RLTW!
Here again, now after reading Tim’s book

Tim has the heart of a lion, I respect him totally.
The type who says he there for you, and always will be 🤜🏽💥🤛🏽

Mr. Kennedy is a beast
Who’s here after watching The Shawn Ryan Show interview? 🙋🏽♂️🙋🏽♂️🙋🏽♂️
God bless you Tim!!
Nice finish for Tim.
Who’s here after hearing about it on Shawn Ryan?
Tims a hero
..KENNEDY! "Turn up the treble til it gets real loud!"
I love the way she slow dance she make me trow mo bands.
Joe Frazier could not have thrown it better! Picture perfect left hook!
I wish my unit would have a ufc event
Damn those marines are disciplined
What a stud
"I'm a Christian but I worship you guys" 🤣 the most contradicting statement ever
how was this a TKO?
Ikr lol
How could you NOT consider this a TKO?
After Tim's left hook lands on his opponent, the fighter's legs collapsed from underneath him and he falls onto his back. Down the back of his head slams against the metal caging of the octagon.

@@Lumberjacked120 think they mean it's a straight up KO rather than a bad stoppage..
Never close your eyes like that when your striking.
Scars and Stripes brought me here ! 🇺🇸
Why did the ufc stop doing these fight for the troops events
I imagine it's harder to pull off than a regular event with crowds
This is the fights game people, really? This is not fake ass WWE stuff. Tim Kennedy had "home court advantage" in many ways fighting in front of his brothers in arms. IDK how many of you have performed in front of people you NEEDED to impress, but you always rise to the occasion.

People saying this fight was rigged are real stupid. Natal took a big punch that dropped him, then another big punch on the ground.
Raphael Natal looked really small compared to, Tim Kennedy. I personally thought he was winning up until he got knocked out lol. Tim Kennedy better stop talking crap about, Vitor Belfort though cause that wouldn't go too well for him at all
Military fighters went 1-3 yesterday.
"We finish fights", lol no sir, only you finish fights
not surprised that the christian military man throws in some extra shots when his opponent in obviously out, the difference between someone like kennedy and machida is infinite
me neither he did his job? you dont stop till the reff pulls you off, but i dont expect you to understand that. hope you have a swell day

You're a moron if you think any UFC fights are rigged. Colton Smith lost and he's an Army Ranger, how do you explain that?
Tim fuckin' chased him down to blast him with heavy ass punches after the ref had stepped in LOL
Liz lost too, she's a marine or ex-marine.

Easy win for Kennedy and he made it look hard, LOL. This guy will never beat a top 10 fighter in his life.
