Lol
Hahaha
His creativity is limitless 😂
@@RoNLIoc likes and comments dont give you money, Just clout
Nah say what you want about his picks, but I have always appreciated how creative he gets with these other videos. And he’s been making videos like this for a while now.
Lucas the type of guy to eyepoke while shadowboxing
Jones definitely does eye pokes on pads
@@Figgy636bro would get sidelined for a jammed finger
@@Figgy636he’s the reason I keep my finger out if I’m shadow boxing with no gloves
I think you mean Lucas the type of guy to GET eyepoked in shadowboxing🤣
😭😭😭
Interesting take to say volk would beat prime ngannou but I respect it Lucas!
Volk steps up on short notice and chins ngannou when Joshua pulls out tbh, this is from a completely unbiased Australian
@@kingt0295 "short notice" hehe
Volk takes the fight on 17 minute notice and submits jon jones
"I like to keep myself busy"
How can Lucas didn't even mention Khabib smashing RDJ where he's a bjj black bealt while only mentioning Connor, DP and Gaethje guys that suck at ground defense? I'm not even a Khabib fan but like really man? come one i was expecting more solid arguments coming from him.
Congratulations to khabib for beating volk in a fantasy matchup by sub and extending volks neck by a meter and outstriking him
😭😭😭 nahh the meter neck is crazy
It sucks after Khabib defended his belt against Volk, he unfortunately got bulldozed on the feet by Charles Oliveira in Abu Dabi
Hahahha i dont think you know how long a meter actually is😂
Lucas doesn't get enough credit for constantly pumping out content dudes got a video damn near every day or every other day
Thank you!
@@lucastracymma8764 for sure bro, keep up the good work

The rant on khabib’s striking was hysterical
Yeah that's true. And the thing is, Alexander competitively grappling with Khabib sounds sillier than Khabib competitively striking with Alexander. I have quite a lot of opposite takes on that match up compared to Lucas.
@@pKerViKNGhe'd Maul him so bad😭😭😭
@silentassassin423 No it’s not, I actually think Khabib beats Volk 48-47 but Volk is an actual wrestler, it would be competitive.
When has Khabib ever tested himself vs real grappling threat ? RDA is basically the only semi credible opponent Khabib has fought.
You act like khabib is Jon Jones wrestling Olympic & Big ten wrestlers (DC & Rashad Evans) or ADCC medalists like Belfort.
@@pKerViKNGKhabib is the most overrated fighter on combat sports history. Dude had zero striking and his grappling is also overrated. He fought cans and when he finally fought comp it was one dimensional strikers with zero ground game. Khabib would get destroyed by Volk, Volk has great striking, elite take down defense, good grappling, good clinch work, etc.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂@@ProfessionalCurryDefender
Lucas laughing is hilarious 😂😂😂😂
Dude it kept going 😅😂
Bro smoked a fat J before filming this video for sure😂
Bro smoked a bazooka joe joint
Lucas doesn’t have the best takes, but you gotta respect his grind
Seriously he gets a ton of shit but these videos are hilarious
If he only had "good" takes there'd be no entertainment😂
@@lunarmizt388 I don't think its legit hate that he gets. I feel like its fans just joking around

Hespect
I can’t help but laugh my ass off whenever Lucas is laughing at his own commentary 😂
As soon as Lucas said Usman I knew he was gonna say cobblestone wobblestone knees😂
Never gas up a Volk fan
But I love him
This guy doesn't know the difference between Islam and Khabib's grappling styles. he has crazy pace too along with crazy ground and pound.
And is way stronger
That khabib volk take is wild
And regarded
(Switch g with t)
Yea Lucas is a renowned Volk glazer
It makes no sense since the logic he uses mean that Makhachev would dominate Khabib then.
I think he's fucking up in thinking that Khabib and Islam are equally good on the ground.
Islam is more balanced and defo has better striking then Khabib but Khabib's grappling is in fact better than Islam's. Volk would not be that comfortable if it was Khabib on his back instead of Islam.
@@bomboclaatpunaniman9387 khabib has a far better ground game
He subs Volk
Lucas I owe you a massive thank you, I used to have terrible insomnia and often wouldn’t fall asleep until 5 or 6, which really affected my life and performance. But ever since I started putting on ur videos, I fall asleep within 10 minutes, I can’t thank you enough. 🙏
Lol i hope thats the truth , his videos fucking crack me up 6:46 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
48 minute Tracy video coming in the clutch
you don't actually believe volk beats khabib
Lucas gets a couple of predictions right and all of a sudden the man acts like an analytical genius. Even has the audacity to come up with fantasy matchups and make his predictions (knowing that we will never find out how wrong he is). 😂😂😂 this is why I love his content and will continue to watch no matter what.
It is always funny to laugh at a clown 😂
6:30 unhinged lucas laughing to himself fantasizing about volk pieceing up khabib 😂
Bros getting aroused thinking about volk 💀, spitting bubbles on it
Lmao bros can only dream of khabib losing 💀
Lucas should explain why Makhachev wasn't dominating Khabib in sparring then since Makhachev can do everything better than Volk.
how i felt watching islam piecing volk up
Lucas used Islam stalling while on Volk's back as an example why Khabib would struggle to impose himself on the ground against volk, but after the fight at 284, khabib called islam and asked him about the possibility of transitioning from the back to full mount. This course of action would work well for khabib as he could make full use of his elite top control and heavy GnP
He says it as if Volk wouldn’t deny his transition
@@12ww37Whatever aspect of Khabibs game you think is lacking, top control and GnP is not one of them. He is literally the absolute best GnP and top control grappler in UFC History
@@togrul3954 passing to full mount isn’t easy
You forget the part where Volk doesn't let him do it.
@togrul3954 How when he has never fought a real wrestler or ADCC level athlete & controlled them ? Volk is a better grappler everyone Khabib has fought except maybe RDA even that is debatable.
Have you never watched a Jon Jones fight ? Rashad Evans, DC, prime Chris Weidman these guys have dominated Olympic wrestlers & ADCC medalists. There are way more accomplished G&P fighters than khabib.
Lucas was off Pen rips during the khabib volk section
Nah Lucas is slowly losing his mind
Volk only beats khabib in Lucas’ dreams. Everyone in Javier Mendez’s gym acknowledges khabib is the best guy there, even Islam himself. Khabib holds Volk down and wins a clear 5 round decision.
mendez has said countless times that islam is the best there please stop...
@@bornmenu that’s completely false. Javier says countless times Khabib has never lost a sparring session against anyone ever but he may lose a round here and there to Islam
true. he says makhachev has only some rounds against Khabib, not more. and for the record, mendez said that Usman is the best one in their gym skill wise.😮
Javier always says that Islam is the strongest but khabib has no equal on the ground....Islam was the one who used to win one or other rounds with khabib but no one else would do that....@@bornmenu
Wtf 😂 this guy made something up yo y u want Islam to be better than Khabib so so bad like who cares they are brothers
Lucas cracking up about Volk vs Khabib was hilarious
Saying that volk and khabib’s grappling is at the same level is…. Interesting
I meant Khabib and Islam have a similar level of grappling.
@@lucastfitness7299 Please link me a clip of Islam having Khabib's ground n pound and Khabib's relentless forward pressure. Not a similar level at all.
@nofaace2576 the fact you used forward pressure as. Areason to why Islam and khabib aren't on the same grappling level is stupid
@@Quickcobalt Not really. Having a relentless forward pressure overwhelms your opponents and causes them to make critical grappling mistakes in the heat of the moment, this in turn makes it easier to take down your opponents. We've seen this with Merab shooting fifty takedowns on Yan. He isn't getting most of them but its stifling Yan's offence. Or with Khabib pressuring Gaethje so bad he was gassed by the end of the first. Forward pressure is a part of Khabib's grappling style that he is best at.
The only stupid comment is stating Khabib and Islam have the same grappling level.
@@nofaace2576 exactly ppl seem to forget who khabib was. Islam is not on Khabib's level as far as we can tell... he has work to do to prove that he is or better
Holy glaze abt volk
You definitely made this after yesterdays stream where you talked about yoel beating every middle weight in his prime besides people like Whittaker
Whittaker loses to dricus and khamzat and ikram. Whittaker is good but his time is up.
@@JOHN-zl5kwthis whittaker does. Real ones know that Rob left a lot of his dog behind in his two Yoel fights and has relied on outskilling his opponents and frontrunning ever since.
Khamzat is getting murdered by Romero. He’s not taking him down, khamzat has 0 setup
@OverproofMMA
Real ones?
You mean people with sense. This Rob is not what he used to be. You either improve or get left behind.
@@JOHN-zl5kw Or lose to father time, you act like we can improve for the rest of our days.
Congratulations to khabib for absolutely demolishing volkaiskinovki with a strike clinic for five rounds, just to ko him with a flying spinning heel kick in the end.
People still don't understand the nature of Khabib's game 😂
Still a good vid 👌
Lol
Lay and pray nut sniffer islam better grappler and can actually finish
@eveningstar4543
You are right.
Charles needs to get past Islam first. Before he can dream of competing against khabib. Khabib trained Islam. Khabib would easily beat Islam. Today.
People would call Volk a "striker" after Khabibs done with him
@mmafan3412
Love Volk.
But khabib Mauls him.
Khabib would just run at Volk and not give him any space unlike Islam did. We saw how much less effective Volk was in the rematch when he was getting walked down by Islam. If Khabib is walking down Gaethje with zero fear why wouldn't he do the same against Volk? Its a lot harder to defend takedowns with a grappler as relentless as Khabib. We've also seen Islam struggle to take Charles down and have competitive grappling with much lower level grapplers like Chris wade... Khabibs grappling is flat out better.
Volk would welcome that with open arms. Volk's best ever performance was one where Max put him on the backfoot and he dominated Max. Khabib can't shoot takedowns forever
Im glad you mentioned the chris wade fight people only talk about the arman fight being close but never mention islam losing the first rd to wade getting hit with solid gnp at the end of the rd & getting reversed multiple times
Yup,Moises also stuffed 50% of Islam's takedowns
So Volk defending a few of them while stil getting outgrappled doesn't mean shlt against Khabib
@@kingspart9828didn’t moises also mat return islam and take him down. I also remember moises going for a leg lock and islam looking up for advice from his corner
@@CazWitDaCash yup he did,hes clearly a way worse grappler than Khabib
He freaking lost it 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bro wtf? Volk winning against khabib based on volk performance against islam was the most dumbest shit I’ve heard in my whole life. Sure khabib won’t be dominant but he’s definitely getting that win. After all these years you didn’t learn that These skills doesn’t work against khabib. He’s way better than islam in grappling once he gets the takedown then Volks not going anywhere. He might or might not do damage but he’s got that control time. Only way to beat khabib is to catch him with good clean ko punch. My prediction would be khabib winning via unanimous decision.
Lucas when he finds a way to not get predictions wrong
Dude you just helped me escape for almost a whole hour thank you!
I'm on a long drive across the country and that really helped
Great to hear! Enjoy 🙏
@@lucastracymma8764Hope your ideas don’t run out Lucas, i run thru these videos like nothing Please keep them coming 🙏
Pretty sure this guy is constantly looking at his own reflection in the screen while recording videos. He can’t take himself seriously while yapping. That’s why he just bursts out of laughter so often.
This is it bro. He's making content. And this garbage is good bro. It sells me when I'm high
@@seendidthegreat4814 true
@@seendidthegreat4814how is it garbage, you can't sit there and think khabib smashes Volk?
Lucas Tracy really laughing like Skeletor at the thought of Khabib and volkanovski striking 😂
bro started predicting fantasy fights cuz he cant be proven wrong
Used to hate this guy but idk how but he's slowly won me over , i still don't agree with most of his takes but i like how much content he makes and keeps it entertaining which i definitely respect
Didn’t know Tracy till 4 weeks ago, haven’t missed an upload since and have exhausted the last 5 months of prior content lmfao
that khabib striking segment got me cracking up too
Ilia vs Usman Nurmagomedov is a fantasy match in the future, I’m calling it
Should’ve been that….he didn’t deserve title shot tbh after only 2 barely ranked opponents
@@user-un9yd6fw4n yep ilia probs shoulda fought another contender but usman nurmagomedov is bellator fighter who I think will join ufc in the future
Dont agree with half of the takes you got but thats why i like watching your videos! Keep it up, always enjoy your videos.
The part about Khabib getting chopped up 🤣 🤣 😭 😂
Islam is position over submission.
Khabib is domination vs time
It’s hilarious to see the lengths when Lucas talks about volk or izzy, in comparison to anyone else😹 true glaz vs true hate
I mean he was fair to Izzy and picked him here at least(I think too, I think Izzy would shut Usman down even worse than Leon did in their third fight(
Bro is never running out of ideas
The fact that Jones in his worst condition would still beat or be a tough fight for some of the best LHW'S nowadays in their prime just shows how insanely good he was
Love the content Lucas my man just got so many ideas and really goes into depth about these things as well
Props to him, took so much shit as a new CZcamsr when he made all those wrong predictions and it didn’t affect him
@@airoHYT yea the thing is the main reason he gets a lot of shit and the “lucastracy curse” is only because he talks a lot of shit makes a funny thumbnail so people don’t like that and shit on you even more when you are confident on a pick then it isn’t right it ages worse
I couldn’t stop laughing hearing Lucas laughing 🤣 6:47
When you guys say skill matters more then the walk you down unstoppable attitude khabib has, Machachevs skill couldn't stop his 1 loss, whereass khabib retired with the unstoppable attitudes and less superior skills
I think Khabib would beat both:
-Charles really likes to play guard and was controlled by Makhachev and Kevin Lee,"But they didn't do much of him" it doesn't matter,if you get controlled for 5 rounds you will lose a 50-45(Cory Font).
-Khabib is a better wrestler/grappler with much more ferocious top control than Islam(fighters like Arman,their coach Javier Mendez said this),i think he would control Volk and win by a tko or decision
"but Oliveira guillotine" people should rewatch Khabibs fights instead of following narratives,hes tripped everyone hes fought against the cage
@kingspart9828
As a Charles Oliveira fan I agree. Charles has the opportunity to show if he has Learned and improved by fighting Arman. Then needs to do it against Islam
you khabib guys are too funny.
Ask Justin and Dustin and Conor if khabib is THAT GOOD
I very much doubt Javier has said Khabib is a better grappler than Islam... I feel like I remember him saying the opposite, or at least that they're on a very similar level. Arman is not training with them.
The laughing about khabib had my crying bro
i honestly think khabib makes it look like every other fight.
I think he officially lost it when he started dying laughing alone in his room in front of a camera😂
6:47 Lucas lost his mind
Glad u went through with this🎉 very fun! Enjoyed
Idk why ppl think they should compare khabib with islam.. khabibs grappling was way better than islam. But what makes islam a better overall fighter is islam can strike alot better than khabib. I think khabib would have mopped volk and made it look easy
Brain rot
man love videos like this
That's actually quite funny because I definitely think the chance of Khabib dropping Alexander on the feet is bigger than Alexander getting a takedown on Khabib. I proved you wrong many times in the past, Lucas. But you are lucky this time that it is just a dream match.
So Khabib beats the 'best submission artist in the UFC' by submisson but loses to Volk by decision? Okay dude. Do you prefer Volks nuts salty, sweet or on the barbi?
I mean Volk has no neck to submit 🗿
Me and my homeboys get drunk and binge watch your content…. Keep grinding g you got big things coming your way fr, you don’t even know more then you do
This is actually an interesting idea for a video Lucas well done again dawg
these videos are hilarious lucas!
Do a part 2. Volk vs Charles, Volk vs Connor, Khabib vs St Pierre, Khabib vs Leon, GSP vs Usman, GSP vs Leon, Cejudo vs Moreno, Aljo vs Cruz, O'Malley vs Cruz... There are a bunch of cool ones to do
Prime Tony vs Prime Holloway
Ciryl Gane vs Brock Lesnar
Anderson Silva vs Pereira
Anderson Silva vs Yoel
Prime Caín Velásquez vs Stipe
O'Malley vs Prime Cruz
GSP vs Yoel
GSP vs Khamzat
Adesanya vs Jiri
This level of creativity is rare in the mma content creator community lately
i think youre crazy if you think volk beats khabib its more of personal bias than reality
I don't think so. Khabib gets pieced up on the feet and we have no reason to think he's much better than Islam on the ground
@@lucastracymma8764just by the strength advantage khabib could most likely take him down and keep him down and win by control time. Also considering he has an insane chin he could march forward and catch volk
Tbh he has very thick skin too. Damage wise Khabib will probably look just fine to the judges.
@@lucastracymma8764 If Khabib can competitively strike with Conor, why should we disregard his striking against Alexander?
@@silentassassin423I mean I think that version of Conor was a shadow of his former self. Flat footed, ring rusted. I still think khabib wrecks volk tho
Great idea for a video bro, really enjoyed it
U been mad consistent with the videos bro good stuff
Great content my man, i hope to see some classics in the future like Fedor vs Miocic or Couture vs Cro Cop. Enjoyed it nonetheless, Thank you!
Dude the laughing fits are freaking hilarious!

Honestly, Lucas Tracy makes some of the most entertaining mma content. Definitely one of the top guys. Doesn't overload it with unnecessary comedy or anything, just straight to the point tier lists and breakdowns. The fight picks are fishy though lol
Used to watch the weasel, now i watch Lucas Tracy lmao

Lucas the type of guy to get eyepoked while shadowboxing
6:00 🤣🤣
That thumbnail match up is really interesting
Lucas laughing at Volk who's 5 inches taller than him is a mood
I take 1% credit for this video! Some chad took my comment of usman vs khabib and put it in a super chat. Keep up the grind lucas i been here since last February
Serious counter argument to the Volk v Khabib take:
You’re over inflating the accomplishment of volk on the ground in the first Islam fight. Yeah he survived very well, but that was easily the physically weakest we’ve ever seen Islam due to Perth’s weird rules. In the second fight, when Islam was his usual size, we saw Volk spend significant energy to fight off some very casual clinch work from Islam.
The biggest moment for Volk in the entire first fight was dropping Islam, who already has a much worse chin than Khabib and also was not fully rehydrated. Furthermore, this only came at the very end, when Islam was gassed, when we’ve (to my knowledge) never seen Khabib get gassed
real food cookbook keeping you big as hell
Good videos
Izzy lost against Yoel btw. Just saying.
Name checks out
Can we get a part 2, Prime tony vs Prime Connor, 155, 5 rounds
Last time I was this early ...

That Khabib vs Volk take is WILD lmao. Khabib would absolutely dominate Volk and I love Volk.
Khabib will defeat Volk, certainly. Khabib's and Islam's wrestling is way different: Khabib is far more rentless and spams it to the point where you have to worry at every encounter whilst Islam doesn't really use it that much, and certainly doesn't spam it. Even looking at Ortega vs Volk, he was in so much danger on the ground and mix in ground and pound, Volk would be toast.
And I don't think Khabib would get lit that much up in the striking department, since he *already* has fought some of the best strikers in LW history (McGregor, DP, Justin) where he was very competitive-he improved his striking significantly throughout his career.
So I just don't see Volk doing so much better in the striking area that Khabib would get neutralized, especially with the looming threat of the take down like no other fighter ever. Moreover, I think you overrate how good Volk's defence is on the ground, given he been in tricky situation before on the ground and he hasn't fought a person who spams ground and pound like Khabib.
Khabib at least wins 3 rounds.
You’re right but don‘t compare the Volk who fought Ortega with the version who fought Makhaechev in the first fight. He improved his grappling insanely.
As if you're comparing ortega and khabib on the ground. Ortega latched up a few submissions, and could not hold alex down at all. He had volk in full mount at one point and got reversed in less than 10 seconds
@@menny-ls8kh ortega and khabib are just very different grapplers
@menny-ls8kh ortega and khabib are just very different grapplers, they have success with different things. People literally used ortegas success as the reason why they thought islam would instantly sub him. How did that work out?
@@menny-ls8khMakhachev was not rehydrated because of the Australian rules in the first fight and was weighing less than Volk during the fight night. Volk was physically stronger than Makhachev that night as he have stated afterward himself that Islam was not strong at all, meanwhile all the other opponents of Islam were even accusing him of steroid use because how much overwhelming his strength was. Which one is it: Volk who is a 145lb fighter is stronger than the biggest and strongest 155lb fighter OR Islam just was in a bad physical situation during that fight? Furthermore using Islams grappling success in the first Volk fight as the measurement for Khabibs success is a very unnuanced and wishfull thinking. Khabib(who everyone called him weightbully for not fighting at his natural 170lb) would absolutely maul and overwhelm Volk with his GnP, strength and physical pressure
You should make a video Top 10 UFC fights of all time
Or a tier list
He explodes on me - really lucad
Make more of These man. I’d love you to talk about Pereira VS Whittaker
If volk can beat Khabib, by that same logic Islam should be able to dominate Khabib. Better grappler than volk and possibly equally well overall striker.
But no one in their right mind would suggest that.
Islam wrecks khabib what are you on about
Does Max knowing ab the Gaethje fight since October change your view at all?
When u called khabib a blockhead I died bro lmao
Livestream tonight? 👀
