I hate people who make fun of people talking outside of their native language
Huge respect to Paulo trying to learn english
Yeah that is so dumb. Especially when the person talking shyte only speaks one language
He has improved alot! Alot of the brazil fighters barely try
Honestly broken English has this kind of funny charm especially when they have a sense of humor
Nah he just drunk again slurrin his words
Glad someone commented this. Paulo is a funny guy and he looks in great shape this time
I love how Aldo has been in the UFC for a decade and still couldn’t give two shits to learn English. 😂
He actually knows English, for whatever reason he just doesn't speak it.
He did an interview on UFC Unfiltered this week. In English. Fuckin disaster.
@@VCR_Repairman his English is horrible.. yoel romero sounds like a English professor compared to aldo
Yea that choice cost him millions potentially! He would’ve been a giant star had he known English for the past decade and been well spoken which I believe he is.
I love how you're too stupid to realize how stupid that comment was.
the fact that Usman keeps saying "if they looked like me" when all 4 of them on stage are absolutely shredded lol
not leon sm
@@arbaazali9424 he just has a different body type but he’s shredded too
@@rypb16 yup I like his body more than all of them there tbh
Pretty sure its becuz Usman thinks he looks like a slightly smaller terry crews
@@arbaazali9424 leon didnt need to look shredded... how ya doing ali? still running through them tissues after uzzy joined the shadow realm last night?
And....kamaru lost. Respect to both men, and huge respect to Leon for not giving up, God bless them both.
Im going to knock Leon out 😉
@@RdamWest no you won't casual.
@@RdamWest I’ll knock you out
Why is God n sports so much,when little girls are being kidnapped, raped,little boys killing eachother,all this drama n the world,but God got time for sports,listen to this BS n God got timecforcthis BS
I would have laughed so hard if Kamaru said "10 pushups John" 😂
Imagine if he did say that 😂😂
Probably doesn't want to get the limelight to Colby
Would've raised his stock twofold.
Usman and colby just hit different. They has great chemistry. I hope they become friends one day
Good thing he didn't because it was corny when Colby said it!
Costa is actually really smart. If he was speaking Portuguese he would sound smart. Despite his inability to speak amazing English he still tries his best.
100 percent. especially to try fight through English with all the cameras and crowd.
Exactly ! Some people can barely speak there own language 😂
He should have been this humble when he fought izzy he should have been respectful and taken izzy seriously. Atleast it would have save the embarrassment he received from izzy. I wanted him to beat izzy but we all know what happened
Lol
@@danmcgregor3406 the irony here 😂
i love how paulo has become embraced by the fans. he’s hilarious af and a beast when he fights
He is a master troll. Gotta respect it
I find him likeable but it sure seems like special juice is a factor in his success. That makes it hard to cheer for him
@@casualcausalityy it’s innocent until proven guilty, not the other way around
@@benigogo the court of public opinion does not have the same requirements as a trial, Brazil's history with Belfort and Cyborg etc are evidence enough for me
Kamaru looking like a bouncer guarding the Emerald City.
Luke is the only person ever to make Paulo look like the good guy.
Bad Luke is focused Luke. I hope you flat lines that lipstick wearing drunk Brazilian banana hammock model
Its popular to hate on Luke. Everybody is doing it these days. Yeah he comes off a little awkward and maybe a little full of himself but he must be a cool guy to be friends with guys like DC Khabib and Chito.
He was funny though and he did his job at making the press conference and the fight more interesting
Yup
Hahahaha, no kidding eh
Leon and Kamaru are actually a funny combo. There's clearly a lot of respect there, and Usman is happy Edwards is getting his opportunity.
Gotta respect the other black man getting all the way up there
@@breakdancerQ i dunno if there was that respect between woodley and usman though
@@breakdancerQ what's him being black got to do with it?
Usman dressed like it's Saint Paddy's Day 🤣🤣
After woodley Usman fight, Woodleys Mothergave Usman a hug to congratulate him. Probably was the same respect
It never fails. Humble guys make it to the top, let it get to their heads, lose their humility and get humbled and embarrassed.
Humble or not you can win or lose. Its fighting. Comes down to skill, luck at times and composure in the octagon
Hey, Tony. Remember when I told you when you first started working for me, the guys that last in this business, are the guys who fly straight. Low-key, quiet. But the guys who want it all, chicas, champagne, flash... they don't last.
@@borz55 ha! Fits well. Scarface
@@Gabriel-jn4gp bro martial arts guys need to get this out of their heads… I’m pretty sure Aldo was more humble than McGregor. Hell, Gane was more humble than Jones
Don’t get me wrong, I’ve noticed in myself that I do better when I humble myself, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t more cocky people ahead of me and humble people behind me
It’s just one of many factors
Aldo is a legend I hope he still has it. He's always been a humble fighter and shows up everytime
Glad Aldo will always get the respect of a champion, He’s had one of the best journeys in MMA, most just decline until retirement after losing the belt but to be a contender in another division at this point, it’s one of the most impressive things I’ve seen in MMA.
13 seconds 😄
@@Paul-sl9zm And the man who did is washed as fuck now and aldo isnt
Don’t worry, keep at it. 👍
@@terryblevens9547 13 seconds
Oh stop he moved DOWN in weight..... as he was already a bullying in 45 now he's just an older bigger bully at 135
Everyone is awkward in their own way, this was an interesting press conference🤣🤣
True but usman is pure cringe a wanna be
Nah man Luke is awkward af they trying not to let him kill the vibe
Usman 🤡
@@mr.authentic2505 Everyone is just living their dream dude, calm down.
I actually enjoyed it, was better than some of the past pressers!
Who’s here after usman got knocked tf out
I knew Leon could do it, people counted him out, saying Leon is boring, or has an annoying voice, doesn’t deserve a title fight, all of this bs, always believed in Leon
Didn’t like how masvidal sucker punched him backstage and then went on to lose 2 title fights, when Leon should have gotten the title fight
@@justmayo6097 I’m so happy to see Usman get humbled like that
@@justmayo6097 I knew Leon was taking it too. The energy in the air just screamed dethrone. Mas deserves no title shot ever again.
I feel that Luke has reinvented himself in all definitions of the word, physically he's looking great, his mental seems to be on point and his energy is thru the roof. It's going to be a tough fight for Costa... Paulo round one KO.
lol
ahahahaha
He’s gonna sleep really cozy tm😂😂😂 I don’t even like costa but Luke so slow 😂
I disagree, he is so akward as usual
Stolen comment tool
Bro what did I just watch? This was the most trippy yet awkward conference of all time!
Agreed
This shit was comedy
I feel dumber after that one
Thats what makes them great
What you expect with Usman there?
Costa is too calm, I think he might DOGWALK Luke🤣
I was thinking the same thing
There’s a 90% chance that’s what’s going down
Luke is out in the first round.
Funny if he teabagged him
@@sonny9493 where the fu$k did that come from?
Rockhold is like the drunk uncle at a wedding . Take the mic away from him 😂
Underrated comment 🤣
Just starts airing out dirty laundry in the middle of a toast 😂
This presser is class everyone up there big personality love it
How is it that Paulo is the best talker up there with broken English? Usman still can’t talk, Leon fuck no, Luke?!?! This must’ve been embarrassing for dana
@Sarren You definitely have never been in England if you think he sounds like a Duke
Just say you have a crush on Costa...Jesus Christ!
I respect COSTA for trying, after all this years Aldo is not even trying
@@kells2305 I’d prefer to not listen to him either. It’s a shame that he’s just the better talker of the guys up there. It’s not really a compliment to him.
I get what you mean but at the end of the day, it's the fight business, not who can talk the best trash.
I just want luke to say “conceive believe achieve” lmao 🤣
He'll slip up
So true though, if you can conceive the idea, truelly believe, then ultimately you will achieve.
Didn't you hear him yesterday talking about the abortion his girlfriend had? It's just "Conceive. Terminate." now.
and then catch a left to the chin.
Luke's been working on his Stockton gangsta persona ever since the Nate awkward moment 😂
11:55 That "Adrian" response from Leon to the Rocky question was perfect lmao 🤣👏🏻
Whos adrian though
Watch Rocky if you don't know who Adrian is
@@Chadgigington whice one? I only watched the first movie and creed
@@roiplist Its in the first Rocky lol. Its his wife....
@@angelog87 lol ok i watched that shit a long time ago forgot everyones names but rocky
Luke is looking great physically, psychologically and emotionally, he's learned alot from his last few fights and I believe he's at the best he's ever been. That being said, Costa KOs him round 2.
Thick. Solid. Tight.
Luke is cringe...he will get slept and eat his words yet again
Lukes going to sleep
He’s mocking a man speaking in his non native language, and is overly emotional. He might get KO’ed in the first exchange.
Luke is trying too hard with his persona and his cloths. He will go too hard too soon and get caught.
Luke bringing that old man energy 😂😂
Luke is looking rough in the face. I dunno if he's always looked like that but he's looking ragged.
@@verteup yeah he looks like a dying old man.
@@verteup weight cut has started. He's very athletically gifted so I don't thing his age will be a factor but we will see come fight night.
@@verteup he talked about drinking a lot during covid. That and other drugs will do that to the composition of your skin even if you get your body back in shape.
he sounds dumb af in these interactions, trying to trash talk when theres no trash talk there lmao, cant wait for him to retire saturday after being KOd
whos watching this after the knock out??
Juiceman hours spent in the shadow realm
👇
I like the way Costa keeps invading usmans personal space haha
Gotta let him know what a real 205er looks like
@@abelm7974 biceps bigger than Usmans head lol
Costa is the alpha Chad of the fighters on stage
Skinny claw 🫶🏿
@@abelm7974 omg 😂😂😂
"What kind of car do you drive?"
Top 3 worst things I've ever heard in a press conference.
What colour is your Bugatti? 😂
He was calling Leon’s bullshit out about being humble when Leon drives an expensive car.
@@cgpnc818 it was the opposite. Leon drives a beater
I drive a 2002 Toyota Camry none of you mfs could come close
@@_dracoez345 wtf did you watch? Leon said he drove a Mercedes and Kamaru said "see you like expensive things like I do" so he was calling him out on his bs...
GREAT Press Conference!!!
Never thought I’d see the day I’m rooting for Paulo Costa 😂
me either hahaha
I know man, I want him to do so well but I don't mind Luke either.
Hey Luke is setting himself up for a nasty ko
Left hook as always lol
Luke actually had a really good point in his personal interview.. every time Dana gets on the mic all he talks about is how much better this show was then the last one. So if that’s true.. how come the only aspect of the game that hasn’t gotten better or changed in the last 20 years, is fighter pay? I don’t know the info behind the scenes.. but from the outside looking in, that’s a legitimate point.
Production costs money. Better production require less more money
Cos UFC is greedy & heartless. It’s not even just Dana it’s Sean Shelby & the people Dana works for
Imagine if they had regular jobs like everyone else, then they would really be complaining about pay.
Who cares? I make 13$ an hour. I don't see them trying to raise my pay. They have it good.
lol fighter pay and BENEFITS have definitely gone up not only in the past 20 years but the past 10. Not everyone is wealthy now like Luke (btw he needs to thank the ufc) most on the roster the 200+ others use the UFC Pi and the UFC doctors in vegas. Providing everything you can ever need for free.
Can't wait to see these fights...
Trilogy!!, this gonna be awesome.
Luke Rockhold is like that awkward high school guy who had a year off and comes back trying to be confident 😂
Paulo couldn't communicate it well in English, but he was spot on with the "fellow kids" description of Rockhold
Good job describing yourself 🤣
He tried copying Chael Sonnen but turned it into this
20:15 guy who yelled out “you gotta do your homework” while Luke was asking Paulo his weight had me rolling😭🤣🤣
😂😂
Karma just entered in
@@bimsytech9135 both of you.
@@JA-bg9nc you too. How could you not know that? It's very simple.
His weight can fluctuate. You do know that, right? How would he know his weight? Especially considering he never makes weight? How dumb are you? Lol it's a very reasonable question. They want to know if he's going to make weight. It's ok.
Either way glad a brotha still has the title. Great fight both of them. Hell of a kick. Congrats to the new champ can't wait to see the rest for both
I was questioning Luke's fire and motivation coming into this press conference, but he put all doubts to rest with the great energy he brought. Costa by TKO Round 3
You convinced yourself of something that is definitely not there.
@@bradlymacy4108 You missed the joke lol
@@guyspicks5308 Wow… indeed I did. 🫠
That's pretty funny
so original🌟
12:40 usman and edwards lookin at each other like “these reporters asking the dumbest questions right now for real 😂”
Yeah schmo looked like an idiot in the conference.
'Paulo, what is in the secret juice?!'
*Dana stares into the abyss, sweating and fretting*
Beautiful fight day! We have ufc, glory, boxing. Absolutely huge fights in all the different competitions!
Is it funny that I always come to a pre fight conference after the match is over to see the level of confidence from the losing and winning party. I can tell Kamaru thought it was just another day at the office here
Lol same😂
“You know that thing is a microphone” had me howling😂😂
Dana is crazy 🤪 🤪
Schmo had a mare
The schmo is annoying asf with his fake voice.
Schmo is annoying
Yeah I laughed pretty hard at that actually hahaha
Did Leon really just tell Schmo to “shut the fuck up” 😂?
About time someone did...
@@user-io4sr7vg1v Not really when Dana said if Khamzat beats Diaz he will be #1 contender and Chimaev vs Usman would be nuts. Agree it was nice having the schmo told to stfu.
😂😂😂😂
Long time coming.
About time someone told that mf how a microphone works too. The gimmick is trash.
Wtf I love Leon now
Rockhold needs a good therapist and I am not watching Black Panther.
Big fights here and there 🔥🔥🔥
Luke is just digging his own grave 💀
I feel like Luke might win
@@yourdaughterdoesanal2650 no way..
@@man_down511 Luke's got this. Eazy
@@yourdaughterdoesanal2650 Luke is too scared bro. And Costa will definitely win by Tko in 1st round..
@@beastmotoz Trust me Luke's got this one.
A comeback from Aldo to championship would be legendary!
The man is good but the fights with Max and Yan just proves that whiles he is amazing, he's not becoming champ. But it would be legendary if he did
Nah
*7:40** that hat reveal KILLED ME…… came out of nowhere* 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Kamaru has been welcomed to the shadow realm
“You look like terry crews , I don’t wanna look like you”
😂 idk why but Leon has some good one liners I think
Thought he said u ain't Terry crews
Leon a real badmon 😂
*Camera pans to Terry Crews leaving the building*
Im from the uk and can barely understand a word Leon mumbles
@@lauralishes1 its coz his from birmingham an dem lot have some weird accent
They should make a “biggest corn ball” belt
And give it to Usman
Worst dresser belt. Usman would win
Kamaru already got it
BCB Belt Championship
One of the best ever press conference hilarious 🤣
Came back to watch the video to feel out the energy. Gotta make my body language expert skills count like everybody else 😂
love the love aldo gets man deserves it he already a legend
Aldo doesn't need to speak English because he speaks greatness
Love how all the guys I’m rooting for are sitting together #team usman
I lost it when Leon said, "You look like, Terry Crews bro."
Leon and Usman seem like they are one step away from being best friends.
Of course they're friends...
That Adrian line was to funny
Can you explain it to me? Never watched the movie so I don’t get the reference
@@Ozzyozzysheesh Adrian is Rocky's wife
@@b0nzik oh damn 😂
I'm so happy for Leon, we're both brummies! It's great to see him representing.
When usman said what to what car he drive and Leon said “what “ mocking him that shit was funny I can’t lie 🤣🤣
Luke trying to convince himself he still has it is so awkward...
Lol you must be new Luke has always been like this, it’s why he got roasted for losing to Bisping
@@cristinaojeda5049 That old guy will lose no matter what he says. Costa wins by Tko 1st Round..
Loved it when Bisping clobbered that loud childlike gobshite I must say.
Bisping was aswell I do admit, but I've always known it was an act for more press and therefore more money, but I truly believe that Luke is really like this.
I hope he isn't don't get me wrong and I would certainly apologise if I am , but he really comes across genuinely as a confused, angry pre pubescent child.
Luke tho lmao I was laughin my ass off the way he would outburst at Costa "Im Old now im Young? Wtf" he was goin off lmao
Lol he stung Luke with that comment
He is old and dressing like young to look you he mean to say
Luke was being cringy
Costa was saying they he's an old man who is dressed like a teenager. Which is true. He looked like crap
after looking that knockout , this interview feels so good haha. now usman ride what ? what? hahaa
Costa looks like hes going for a job interview haha love this guy. super funny and both dudes gave their all. some might say not the most technical fight, but you cant stay technical when costa is landing bombs and you are trying to survive.
Paulo’s English is actually pretty damn good. Let’s hear Luke’s Portuguese
My Brazilian chic always says that to me.
She gets hate f’cked for it, so will Luke rockhold 😂
@@Autonomous_Don suuuuure
@@Autonomous_Don she gets hate fcked???bro what🤣🤣
@@Autonomous_Don /Doubt
exactly 💯
and I'm american
These 3 fights have got me so pumped up for this card which is actually stacked top to bottom with great matchups
Okay.
It's should be a fun one for sure
This was a great press conference. So good I've dropped 3 different comments 🤣🤣
Props to Kamaru for keeping consistent
Luke has sounded unhinged this entire week. He has made valid points regarding the UFC, but coming in with that much bad energy rarely works out for fighters. Costa by TKO, round 1.
Yeah he comes across as really jaded and bitter. Emotionally compromised. Costa on the other hand seems to have gone through some great personal growth
@@manfrombritain6816 emotionally compromised… perfectly said.
First white man ever to act physically hurt by an abortion
He's better than Costa....they both fought Romero and Luke did way better than Costa
Yeah Luke has a serious mental issue. I really mean that with love and concern...something worse than fighting is going on in his soul....yikes
I like the part of the interview when Rockhold is asking Costa his current weight but Costa is confused initially and thinks it's someone in the crowd asking the question
Costa is just funny af.
The whole wine bottle thing was funny af a while back
I like the part where it ended.
@@Autonomous_Don if you watch his 'Day in the life' he's not messing around he has a full bottle of wine next to his bed 😂😂😂😂😂
@@Autonomous_Don my favorite part was when he said "I'm gonna fuck that old man on Saturday". I can't wait to see that on PPV
I’m going to see this. Never been to a concert, sporting event, or anything in my life. I’m going to be there when the gates open at 4:30; and gonna be inside for all 7 hours!! I realize nobody cares; but I’m excited!
Hope you enjoy it! I went to the recent UFC Fight Night in Austin and it was fucking awesome! I love seeing this on TV, but being there is 1000x better. Have fun!!!!
Have fun man!
Thank you!
It was CRAZY fun! And to see that finish!?!? Amazing. Absolutely amazing.
This is the Press Conference we want tho....!!!
I wouldn't let John ask a question unless he gave me 10 push-ups
Someone else really needs to pick that up where Colby left off lmao
Sounds like john disrespected you just like he did to colby
He’s actually been noticeably losing weight, thank god all of you are in peek shape 😬
All 6 guys seem dialed in. I hope all 3 fights are bangers!! Honestly all 3 should be relatively close and could go either way
Except costa vs rockhold.. we all gonna 😂 in the end of Luke
Luke is going to get slept.
Costa is going to get slept.
@@johnny614 definetly not 😂
Costa is THE worst matchup for Luke at middleweight : godlike takedown defense and ground game, more strenght than him, and a lot of pressure and power in his strikes...
Luke would have a better time against Whittaker and Izzy
I have the utmost respect for Kamaru…..I have never really cared for him until he became champ! Now I think he is a GREAT champ but also a great human. I don’t really care about his money or his cloth or even the cars he drives but you have to stop and think if you had the money he has would you change some of those things yourself? Of course….we all would but the fact that the man gives all respect to all his opponents and doesn’t go overboard with all the disrespect that other fighters do makes him a Great champ in my eyes and he always will be.
I would love to just meet kamaru and just sit and talk and see the world through his eyes.
Go champ!!! It will come back!
"I'm on my primetime. I will fuck this old man on the Saturday."
I love Costa so much. I don't understand or care why people hate on him. The dude is both intentionally and unintentionally hilarious. And he's going to KO Rockhold.
I feel bad for luck. Walking into the octagon to get fucked. Hope he brought rubbers
He had about the most embarrassing win as someone can get lol
Man Usman is a stand up guy in my eyes.. He fights the best and doesn't duck and dodge anyone.. May the best man win..
For real. Even gave Jorge the rematch to allow Jorge to have a full camp. Instead of taking the first win and running with it.
@@PuertoRicanStyL Bro, the way Masvidal got knocked tf out, it doesn't even need a rematch. lol
@@weirdo4653 The k.o. was from their second fight. Kamaru won the first fight by decision.
I think it's because he legit knows he is the best. He fought every style in his division and most of them he beat at their strengths. It's not surprising he has no worries about anyone. He is truly on his way to being the greatest or one of.
@@ililxaphanlili2600 ahaha pull ya head in
Aljo screaming "LETS GO MERAB!" in the back is hilarious 🤣
Can someone please sort out the shaky camera at every single press conference….
Best line in this press conference “You know that thing is a microphone, it works” ~ Dana White
Listening to Luke on DCs CZcams made me wanna root for him and then he shows up at the presser and reminds me why I enjoyed watching him get slept
Rofl same
Typical Luke, thought he changed like he was saying.. taking time away from the game hasn’t changed
Same here, bisping was entertaining Luke is an arrogant prick hes gona need a triple shot Costa coffee to wake him up hes goin for a kip in this fight.
I think I can speak for most of us here, or maybe it’s just me, but I think Paulo’s becoming a much more likable guy ever since his fight with Adesanya.
He’s also just funny as shit on social media
Not sure if it Paulo being more likeable or Rockhold being the world's biggest douche.
He’s always been like that idk what you mean. His confidence and English skills skyrocketed after the Yoel fight
He’s great lol
Not sure, but I do know Luke is becoming more of a prick.
@Daniel Caine how about a catweight
When Leon said his only thought was to provide for his family Kamaru looked a little concerned for himself
Paulo costa has one of the funniest twitter accounts I have ever witnessed. The man is Botha fighting and meme legend
So hyped!! 😭😭
God damn this press conference was painful to watch except the classy legend Jose Aldo
Yeah I had to 10x past most of this especially the Luke parts
This is probably the most shredded press conference yet😳
Bro... When this man said question for Jose Aldo, i was shook, like since when was he on the card??? Im even more amped now jheeez
Usman: I’m not in this for fame and I wanna be humble
Also Usman: what kind of car you drive
He was simply pointing out that Leon Edwards bought a nice car after blabbing about money going to Usman head.
Usman is a beast for sure. Is it me or does he look absolutely tiny compared to 185ers? And talking about 205??? Idk
@@chrisgrady4466 most likely because he's shredded down due to the weigh ins very soon. I personally don't think he looks that small did you see his staredown with Jan a few weeks ago. Maybe months at this point I'm not sure
@@teddyatkinson4276 yeah I guess costa is absolutely huge...I mean he can barely make weight
I think you missed the point there. Usman wasn’t poor shaming him. He was trying to call him a hypocrite for slamming on him for showing off his fame and money when Leon clearly has money as well ie. his line about Leon’s Dior shirt.
Let's keep things 💯, Usman looks like a damn Christmas tree ornament.
With his shiny ball head 😂
Facts!
lmfao would love to hear Colby at this conference
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I just looked at ur profile pic and burst out laughing
When Leon said Adrian. Everyone laughed even Kamaru
This is a scary Luke Rockhold we are witnessing. The years of work in solitude working on his mentality, physical condition and his chin have made him into a different beast. I sense he is back to that same belief he had as a champion, now he just need to achieve it one last time. Paulo Costa will have to make a journey to hell and back to beat this monster... Paulo Costa by KO first minute of R1.
Luke tired out quickly
Scarily gassed 😂
@@comixof2morrow true but he did well besides that
Leon and Kamaru are bringing the best out of each other and I love it 😂 never seen these guys be this funny
“Let me liveeeeee”
Luke's face is going to treat Costas fists like a bitch.
After Luke insulted Paulo for wearing glasses he took them off 🤣🤣🤣
When the camera panned to Merab for the first time i literally jumped like wtf bear man doin up dere.
