Ufc are fumbling not having Jan, Rakic or Jiri fight in Europe it would be massive!
They've been asking for that for years now
Happy to see Rakic back. One of the more complete, and underrated fighters in the UFC
highly underrated and he's built like a shredded tank
His fighting style is very boring. Plus inactive & even in the shallow lhw division I don’t see him fighting for a title
@@wisdomincoming12 he's been inactive because of his injury lmaoooo did you not watch or listen?
@@arizonacolour8793 He was boring & inactive before the injury
@@wisdomincoming12 makes me wonder how entertaining of a fighter you are..... 🤔
Rooting for Rakic dude is a tank very solid in all aspects of MMA his fight with Jiri should really show ppl that he is a threat for everyone
Rooting for Rakic over Jiri? No way! Rakic has disappointed fans with his boring performances so many times.
@@ApexPunisherX That such a mild way to look at the sport oh I wasn't losing my mind his last couple fights therefore I'll just root against him thats typical for mma fans to switch up at any moment and as a real fan I dont respect that behavior honestly
jiri is a clown@@ApexPunisherX
Rakic is going to get absolutely destroyed.
@@tomascech6772 you have to be joking, right? Rakic is practically undefeated in the UFC. Not only will he win the LHW belt this year, he is massive for the LHW weight class. He’s going to go up to heavyweight and take out that fabricated belt holding whining Tom and be double champ.
I'm glad Rakic is back. He is underrated
Agreed, he was arguably beating Jan before he did his knee
@@jasonstuart2815 Big facts . He will get a title shot
Even though he lost I became a fan, he was doing very well against Jiri, he’s definitely a top 5 LHW for sure
@@paranormalcatdragon7514 I agree with you
Hearing about Aleksanders recovery is encouraging to me.
I've been missing Rakic!
i really dont want either of them to lose but man is it gonna be a sick fight
Cant wait to see how he looks in his return.
Title or #1 contender doesn’t matters, we still need to see Alexander Rakic vs Magomed Ankaleav
Wouldn't be surprised if this kid ends up becoming a champ. The division is at its absolute worst. Anyway, his style is kinda similar to Alex at some places, so Jiri better have a gameplan this time.
I had a large bet on Rakic at a time and when he lost I went to dark places with him lol
Nothing remotely closed to what he had to go though tho. 😅 dude was forced to take a layoff for 2 years, can u imagine that!
Rakicu sve najbolje tebi i tvojima! Bices sampion! Zivela Srbija
Let's gooo, you can do it for Serbia 🇷🇸🇷🇸 prvi srpski sampion 🏆
Hahaha he is austrian
No shame in that loss at all, he performed very well, Jiri is just a beast. Rakic will be back for sure.
Rakic is dark very dark horse of LHW
🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱
Rakic, it will be the champion, remember that...
@@user-sk9sp7pe4y Based off what? He got knocked out by Izzy if a heavyweight connects it over. Jailton Almeida could literally cut down to LHW and Ragdoll the entire division, Alex would get subbed in 1.
@@JT76912 He lost
It's that point now or never... i have felling we can see spectacular finish from this guy in next fight.
Let’s go Rakic! Can’t wait to see him back! 😀🚀
Go go Rakić 🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸 svi smo uz tebe
Zivimo njegov san
does he live in austria?
ja in Wienna
A little more and The Rocket comes for his own, he comes for the gold. . . Jiri is one of my favorite fighter in UFC right now, because of its style but but Rakic will run him over and after that he will take the belt LET'S GO SMASH THEM ROCKET ! YOU WILL BREAK THEM ALL! Support for my brother from Montenegro, I'm rooting for you and I'm betting on you! *AJMOO BREEEEEEEE bices CHAMP 100% NIKO NE ZASLUZUJE TO VISE NEGO TI NARAVNO KAD PREBIJES Jirija!* *NEXT CHAMPThe Rocket!*
Not only will Rakic become the LHW champ this year. He’s so massive for the LHW weight class that he’ll move up and beat that fabricated HW belt holding whining Tom and become double champ.
Idemoooo brate po taj Pojas !!!! Ovog puta gas do daske !
Most exciting fighter on the roster
If Rocket wasnt injured before fight with Jan he would surely win..but anyways now he have harder opponent and i dont have doubt in my head that Rocket will shine
There is nothing sure about it ... he might have outgrappled Jan but he was getting pieced up on the feet
Jan would absolutely destroy him LOL. He would have mop the floor with him.
@@tomascech6772 what flight were you watching? Rakic was dominating Jan the whole fight lol 😂
Sad ili nikad , ajmo Rakicu👊
Ask him about Petrak
Rakic. 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼🍷
Hoping for years watching rakic fight
Man ufc 300 is crazy but the most stressful for me will be watching Racic fight.
I won’t be able to take it if his knees explode under him for the 4th time! Any movement is dangerous and can cause his ACL s to break, i ll be on the edge of my seat! Hope he gets a W even tho I like Jiri as well
Rakić the king!!
Let's goooo raychick!
LETS GO RAKIC!!!!
AJMO RAKICUUUUU!!!!!!!
Let's go!
Oktagon MMA is the best organization in Europe 🇸🇰🇨🇿
Jiri vs Rakic is gonna be insane
leave god out of this!! rakic its you brother!!! you are the man.
BjP Viktory 🇨🇿☝️🙏
It’s so crazy how nobody has been able to keep it once they get it(the belt) it’s literally the same thing that was happening before jones took it, I don’t think rua, rampage, machida, griffin, Evans, ever defended, it was very entertaining, I think it’s entertaining af that none of them can keep it(granted is from injuries but still 😅)
Aleksandar Rakić you know...🙂
blachowic was champ, glover was champ,yiri was champ,hill was champ,pereira is champ.. want be suprise if rakic become champ,but there are and ankalaev and walker also.. also murzakanov is coming... that lhw division is madnes after jon jones is out
Fans are crazy if they aren't hype for this fight. Tbh every fight announced for 300 so far is good. Idk why ppl are complaining.... we haven't even got all the big fights yet and it's already looking good.
Why Jonathan Haggerty hasnt been invited here?
First fight in almost 2 years and he gets Jiri xD
Ring rust is real, Jiri is going to KO him.
BJP!
Lmao Rakic never got finished or lost a fight in UFC. He is too smart. 😂☺️
@@Bleismo he might be smart but he lost to Oezdemir and Blachowicz so OK 😂
@@jendysklement7632 he got robbed against Oezdemir and even won on points and the betting community was on Rakic. As the Blachowicz fight he got injured and tore his knee ligaments. 😂 So basically he never lost a legit fight in the UFC. Dark horse in the division.
@@Bleismo well I know what you mean but in both instances he just lost. I do not like that he tends to play it super safe. I agree that he might be a dark horse but Jiri is a TOUGH test
i would have picked him to beat jiri before the injury
Let's go Serbia 🇷🇸
Ian had a chance to downplay or somewhat diminish the moral terpitude it took for him to denigrate Neil Magny and his son over Neil's misspoken soundbite whereby Ian's inflammatory and disingenuous comments caused Neil, his custody case position and his son significant and irreparable harm... Ian chose to doubledown!
U get a thesaurus for Christmas?
🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🚀🚀🚀🚀
Champ
The only dark place with this guy is the slumber kingdom he sends everyone who watches his fights to.
Exactly. NEVER seen a guy his size be so boring & hesitant in fights. He lowkey doesn’t even deserve the jiri fight. Give him ulberg
💪🏼🇷🇸
VIENNA WIEN
15:56 thats sound gay now😂
🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸
🇷🇸
Samo jako Rakicu! Ajmo do sampiona!
Sucks hes gonna get hurt and pull out
Ian's double standards are blatant, ridiculous and palpably devoid of an eq! 😂😂😂
Rakic saying Jiri doesn't take punches like he does as if he didn't get dropped and almost finished by Devin Clark!
But still survived like 7 illegal knees to the head…
