Yup. He's a modern legend in the kickboxing scene and now he'll be regarded as one of the best in the mma scene.

They got the interpretation wrong, he was complementing Izzy on how good of a fighter he is and he shouldn’t be taking a break, he wants to motivate Izzy to come back as soon as possible so he won’t waste his talent on the sideline, the end was funny tho lol
Exactly. Wonder why everyone is misinterpreting it

@@MrByte92 while on most occasions he was winning the fight. Let's allow them have their rivalry, it's what fighters do.
what really define Alex' win is his leg kick, ghostly, very least telegraphed, very few people will understand Jiri' leg is gonna be worst than cheap spaghetti
Leg kick and left hook. His left hook really special.

@@Natsu4495 yeah sure his left hook is phenomenal, but few people knew Jiri's leg is gone already, you see that black red bruise? Alex' left hook came easy after that, even if the fight went on i am sure Alex will finish him with, few more ghostly leg kick he will limp badly and got left hooked, beatiful game plan by Team Glover executed perfectly by Alex
@@baeualoevv bait used to be more believable
@@baeualoevv Alex made big mistake on this fight. He hurt izzy leg , try to finish him early and get counter. He never gonna do the same mistake against izzy i think. He is less agressive since his defeat against adesanya
Man climb the ladder and became champ so fast. What a blessed guy! A gentle giant I would say.
Alex is the best thing that happened to ufc

Joe has been bad in commentary lately but he has been hyping up alex from day 1 even before he debuted in ufc .. I’ll give him that
Alex Pereira very will might be the combat sports GOAT. If he defends the title he is without a doubt the GOAT of combat sports. CHAMA!
I’ve seen it said that every time Alex wins, Izzy loses. The reality is, every time Alex wins, Izzy wins actually. If the guy that you had close fights with (and even beat) turns out to be highly capable then it reflects well on you too.

Who is Hill?
Poatan could legit be the 1st person to have won 3 belts in 3 different weight classes he could definitely compete at heavy weight ❤
Combat Sport Legend
Alex is on legend road.
He's probably in the rare position where he could absolutely go after a third belt.
We're most of the other people that attained the double champion status were basically stuck At that accomplishment where he could more than likely at least challenge for a third
Greatest combat sports athlete of all time.

The KO loss to Izzy must really not sit well with him but I doubt Izzy moves up to 205 to fight him upon his return. He was already undersized fighting Jan and Alex will be way more durable knowing he doesn't have to drain himself making 185.

Congrats to Alex 🇧🇷
I got jiri by first round submission if they ever rematch
Jan vs Jiri HAS to happen.
I had Alex winning. Was it an early stoppage? Maybe. But regardless, Great accomplishment by Alex.
Jiri was rocked and then collapsed with his back to the ground, I get that he sprung up fast, but after getting rocked and collapsing onto the canvas, why wouldn't the ref stop it at that particular point in time
He got mounted. Alex got up after the ref called it. If the ref didn't dive in jiri would have been mounted after already being rocked. Good stoppage
Yeah man idk why people are up in arms about it. He put him down twice in under 10 seconds, why people want fighters to take life changing damage i will never understand. Even Jiri said it was a good stoppage and he was out.
Jiri went out twice. Enough of this. Jiri is young and doesnt need unnecessary punishment from a man like Poatan.
@@3.dametime he almost got mounted..
@@Rshen11he woulda been if the ref didn’t step in. He was on his back
Poatan is a very special person!
jiri said stoppage was right... he said was out...
It makes u question the middle weight division with Izzy if Alex was there the whole time I don’t think Izzy had the belt that long. He beat guys like Marvin and Robert Whittaker twice who lost to dricus. I know at any time anybody can loose or win but I’m just saying Alex would have stopped it long ago. He’s a real beast a real warrior how much he fights who he fights and how he wins. My new favorite fighter to root for. I pick him to win also. Not good odds though.
The Izzy killer strikes
I'll rank Alex higher than Adesanya in both kickboxing and MMA. Literally has beaten 4 champions in such a short time in MMA. Marc is simply awful; the stupid referee always stops it either too late or too early. Jiri literally gets badly hurt in almost every single fight and ends up winning...
Alex and Israel have multiple similar opponents across kickboxing and MMA. Everyone Adesanya has lost to, Alex has beaten: Simon Marcus, Jason Wilnis, Jan Blacowiz, and Sean Strickland.

@@rustyshackleford8473That actually makes it even more impressive. Thought Alex could have beaten Adesanya in their last fight by a leg kick tko but he got greedy instead, which lead to him losing...

People have mentioned that Alex was a kickboxer and that he is a two-weight champion, but he's more than those.

ELite Level kickboxing.... Crazy... And multi Champ!!! JiiRii... Weird Strong body ... Got trapped in the TKO by Bone....
Izzy gotta be salty
I may agree it's a bit early, but Jiri was hit by too much elbow and got limp for a moment you can't blame Goddard for his judgement to protect the fighters. Just remember that the referee is making their decisions in real time and not relying on a replay.
Alex is a specimen
Poatan is different man.. hes my 2nd fav fighter for a reason 👌🏿👌🏿
Who’s your first?
@@nirogalactoid8398Hasbulla
That last stat is underrated. Beaten four UFC champions.
Israel Adesanya has now decided to put a cuticle on his toes and that makes him a 2 Division Cuticle Diva.
Just shows you can be an elite striker or wrestler and make something happen. You don't have to be a black belt in bjj anymore. Just need a blue belt and good take down defense
Alex rise in UFC has been absolutely ridiculous
Alex Pereira has two major weakness = his takedown defense , He is slow and never throw combinaisons. But he had the best leg kick of ufc and great ko power + very lean and rangy
He is not slow bro he does kinda look slow because he throws one shot at a time but watch tonights finish again and watch the Izzy finish he got speed when he does put combos together.
He fights according to his opponent. Jiri is reckless and aggressive so he obviously opted for counter striking in this bout. You don't know what you're talking about.
@@Yeshuaspupilhe’s smart. He seems slow because picks his shots til his opponent is hurt then he throws combos
@@PoatanCombatSportGOATexatamente!
He is not slow, look the strickland finish! He give extra shots that you can't even see in normal speed
They underestimate Hill and that's from an Alex fan perspective
What are you talking about?
They do, if Alex doesn't work on that defense, then Jamal Hill will be champion again. But let's hope that Alex can hold onto the title, because he reminds me of the old era of UFC fighters
hill is good but he's not better than pereira
Major McGregor v Poirer 2 vibes. Jiri/Conor were having great success in RD1. But Alex/DP butchered the leg. Killed their mobility then caught them in RD2.
stop liking your own comments bozo, you commented 3 times on this video and all comments the same amount of likes lmao
Dustin won round 1 and outboxed mcgregor
Nah, Jiri was being pieced up in the 1st and decided pretty fast that he no longer wanted the smoke.
But at least he waited more than 10 seconds to shoot unlike Jan.
This was a championship fight early stoppage no doubt.
Jiri himself said he was out cold, and that the referee saved him. Period.
Coping is good for the spirit, tho!
And no one even cares that he was put to sleep by Izzy. That was going to happen eventually becuz they fought soo many times.
Crazy how Pereira made it look so easy against this warrior, Alex's stand up is just too good Jiri couldn't press him like he did other fighters.
Alex is an amazing fighter but he gets the best matchups. Whoever managing him is the real GOAT. This was obvious who would win same for Aspinal.
That's not true at all. Jan was a terrible matchup and he still won. MMA math doesn't work, you only say that because Pereira is that good and won convincingly.
@@Kevin.A.S jan is 50 years old, Jiri is a wild sloppy fighter, Strickland is an easy matchup for everyone in middleweight, Izzy was undersized but still slept him. Nothing untrue here, UFC setting up the perfect matchups for him
They brought pereira to make the UFC fun to watch simple. If the unfavorable wrestler matchups can't be the #1 contender there's no reason for us to watch that fight.
@@Advocate_INFJ you are delusional
tom messed up on the mic. should have called out bones or stipe
Lets not forget he not only beat Izzy 3 times but he beat 2 guys Izzy couldn't
If you say to 1000 fighters that he's the next. One time you will be right. No wonder that Joe is right here
Makachev vs GSP should happen 🔥
Alex Pereira is a legend, 11 mma fights and a two weight champion already! He’s the man. 👏👏👏👏🇧🇷🗿🫡
It was quite unfair because it was Prochazka who held the lead. He was a guy who was pushing so hard Perreira. That hit wasn't even hard and Prochazka was able to move on. I don't understand why the judge finished it so early. Quite unfair to me.
Agreed
Never gonna get another PPV with comcast espn+ always lags and freezes during all fights even if I go back 15 or 30 sec, even fights not live, and freezes at same spot of fights on all replays. never does this anywhere else on my PC.
DC : now all he has to do is get to Olympics and win
Or boxing...
„He beat 4 champions“ with 7 fights 🤯
Some UFC brass really said stfu about an early stoppage. They changed their tune real quick
Exactly, it is not good look to the company, when these guys keep mouthing off some bs
Jiri didn't look like that same fighter he was. Not taking anything away from Poatan but I am just saying what I saw in his performance compared to the last time he fought. Congrats to the winner!
Jiri was just getting started, I felt like the old Jiri was gaining confidence and slowly emerging, he was winning the fight and i think he would have won if ref hadn’t of stopped
Dc looks like he stuffed himself with a few chicken tenders before the recap lol
If I Alex I’d try to get the heavyweight belt after Jones retires against Stipe or Pavlovich.
I knew this fight was happening the day Jiri beat Glover
cut this off way too short
Can Alex fight at heavyweight?
What would be cool is for Cyril gane to get the heavyweight belt. And then for Cyril to cut to lightheavyweight to fight Alex. I think Cyril with his frame could make it
yes, he should
Poatan is the GOAT
not early
Genderbender is the last dog fiddler. frozen like elsa
Izzy fought this man 4 times.. my dawg tired
pereira want that lick back after that fluke ko
Already surpassed Izzy legacy
We all need to start talking about Poatan as the greatest of all time. Two championship belts in 11 fights. Ripped body and elite fighting skills. He touches you and you die. Crazy.

it's the second time in last month i am pissed at mark gothard really,let the guys finish
should have let alex hammer fist jiri on the ground a few times to solidify the victory, i know i know jiri's health, but that guy is a warrior he'd make a full recovery

Oh you wanna compare champions ? Alex put dozen of champions. He is the cream of the crop. In UFC alone he put 4 champions in his trail of violence. Izzy lost 8 times in his combat career. Alex has wins over his opponents as well (Marcus, Jason, Sean, Jan ) Everyone is a champion

Why is Jre getting a bit of credit? 😂😭 if you watched mma around the time Izzy was becoming champion all you had to do was search up the last time he lost & you would've found Alex Pereira im pretty sure it was even recommended
I think Jamal is taking back the title
keep dreaming
Bad stoppage. Ruined it for Perriera, Jiri, and for the fans. The outcome may have looked obvious, and perhaps it was. But we'll never know. When it comes to being almost done and coming back for the W, we have all seen crazier things happen. Rematch it without Goddard.
What silly stat. To keep track of.
I’m the record holder for skipping the first and last steps going upstairs at Madison square gardens. The only man to accomplish this 14 times in a row
Alex will be a good champion
Another tick off the box for Alex to do what Izzy couldn’t, go up to light heavyweight and win the title
Congratulations Alex. Would like to know how much the ufc has paid him ? I’m guessing no where near ronda numbers.
Alex will be the first 3 division champ… Not right away but Heavyweight Gold is Next!
Alex just eat him at staredown, it reminds me Mirko vs Wanderlei Silva
Good day 2 all UFC / MMA fans & freaks present here. I`m & have never been an expert in this general MMA full contact sports scene. But above all, I follow the styp by step ascent. This very sophisticated, extremely calculated, at the same time brilliant kickboxing champion Pereira. And as was my personal opinion a few years ago. And it was completely right. This martial artist will one day be a big player in the top league of the MMA fight scene. And will (probably even) clean up in some weight classes. Everything has happened so far. But personally, I was impressed by the fight at that time between the always extremely arrogant and self-overestimating people. Interesting and very good martial artist Israel Adesanya is convinced. Especially when you look at the individual fight scenes at the time. And above all, I looked at Adesanya's very noticeable light blow. Which, completely unexpectedly, put Pereira out of action. Of course, it depends on the state of the day. The individual martial artist is crucial. This is my personal opinion. It was a (presumably, too likely) fictitious contractual battle. Because only money, only money. For UFC President Dana Frederick White Jr. what matters is. And they wanted to keep the middleweight class attractive through Adesanya. And you Pereira, in the next weight class anyway. Already when the champion in front of out suspected and saw. Pereira also definitely knew about himself. That he with his batting qualities. You can also become a champion in this weight class. And the result is now impressive. Even if this fight with Jirí Prochazka. At least in my personal opinion. It was an extremely dull fight. And you noticed immediately. That Pereira was just waiting for his moment. Targeted knockout to deliver blows. My opinion is that Pereira is not a complete technician. What everyone knows and sees anyway. Above all, finally on the ground. Has a lot of catching up to do. Because very soon, this very one-sided fighting style will show him new talents. This is just a complete package, exactly the same and highlighting weg. with Khabib M. aka UFC-Goat + G.S.P aka UFC-Goat + Alexander V. + Islam M. In the longer future, will bring lasting success. But it has always been true anyway. There is always an even more sophisticated, more efficient, better/more successful martial artist coming along. Sport Free + Amen & Hallelujaaaaah
You don't become a 2 division champ by being a fraud. He's probably HOF material just by that achievement.
