“im comin to knock his ass out wif the utmost respect” 😭😭😭 lewis had me rolling
Let's swang n bang then
The way Tai said “i’M cOmin tO dO tHe sAmE tHiNg bRuH” was funny😆
Stupid ppl usually are pretty funny to listen to
@@hischam0698 YeAh THaT WaS ReAL FuNNy. ReMiND mE Of ThE PUnCHLiNE AgaIN.
Is that how you see words, gd you simpletons are easily amused.
Avg iq and intellectual standards of todays society = PoTaTO
@@youknow2849 Get off your high horse little man, you might break your shin.
'get him rob, get him rob" tai is too good 🤣
🤍💜🤎🖤🤎
Yeah that was funny 😂
Haha Idk how I didn’t hear that at first 😂
Damn how can you hate Rob. He’s such a cool dude.
🤍💜🤍🖤🤍
@aloevv𖤐 Bruh I want Rob to win, but Izzy wasn't even disrespectful. He made one joke, and that was it.
@@TheChosenMoose01 dont bother that dude you replied to is a clown and a troll bro! One his comments is him saying. That's why khabibs father is burning in hell. Dont bother with the trolls lol.
@@keithkeef6635 Oh Jeez. I didn't know.
Rob talked a lot of trash before the 1st fight...until Izzy humbled him.
Lewis vs. Tuivasa is a prime example of how the world can still be hyped to see two men fight without all the hatred, shit talking, social media drama and theatrics.
Derrick Lewis bout to get ktfo
@@youknow2849 Nah, ain’t happenin.
a pure contest.
except this event wont sell so you're point wont work haha
Wtf,, why didn't we see them square off.. b.s.
Robert is a kind man, lot of respect to this man
it's honestly making nervous, he's being so nice and chill during this entire UFC countdown eps it would suck to see him lose (IF he does) it'll break my heart 😫
@@rango9057 I would be worried too. A former champ and returning contender for the title should never be saying "I'm going out there to test myself" that's not being nice, that's showing a lack of confidence
@@vertabun427 how is that a lack of confidence? It doesn’t mean he expects to fail his test lmao
@@vertabun427 No if you know Rob he is just a humble guy always taking the high road. He does not lack confidence, he is just quiet and lets his fighting speak for him. Should be a good fight
@@vietnamsemonky4082 its a psychological factor, izzy just seems more confident. rob might have a genuis game plan, or an ace up his sleeve, but he just seems like he's hoping for victory.. 3 to 1, izzy will win for sure, knock him out worst this time and more easy. Rob might even retire or move divisions after this
Loved the vibe of this press conference.
💗💘💖
It was a very honest one for sure... and SHOEY!! 🍺👟
A lot of mutual respect. Refreshing
Best one in a while
man yall are boring. this had no trash talk. *yawn*
These guys are just all so chill. This card gonna be amazing!
Shoulda brought out Brunson and cannonier as well spice it up with the middle weights
Both got personalities of a tree. Brunson only looks good at tweets
You spelled BUMson wrong.
Those guys would ruin the press conference honestly😑
Brunson would’ve probably tried to attack either Izzy or Whittaker and try to kill them
@@mercydrive00 both would merk his ass tho lmao
Love both these dudes. Rob always brings it and never has a boring fight while izzy might be the most technical in the game. Looking forward to this one!!
No 1 cares whitaker gonna take off his head you casual
It’s because people loved McGregors persona. Trash talking isn’t Izzy’s persona it’s just something he does on occasion
@@syntholshoulders1842 hopefully so but it's gonna be a challenge to say the least
Izzy takes ped though, Rob dont
@@syntholshoulders1842 I’ll clown you after the fight be ready
So great seeing 4 absolute monsters showing genuine respect to one another.
Besides Izzy taunting Rob with the chain.
And Rob goes "yeah its a nice necklace"
Izzy face😔
Same face when Romero outdanced him on stage.
That "Eh, probably not" from Tai was hilarious
Whittaker is a very respectable dude like his demeanour. Wouldn’t be so mad if my dude izzy lost to a class act like him.
Yeah same here.
its all for ppv
Derrick and Tai both have a similar style, really excited to see how they clash
Except lewis play possum and less active
@@ShadowBlack54 yeah his fight with gane wasn’t impressive
@@andrethomas169 it was a beatdown
@@andrethomas169 that’s Gane tho there’s not another heavyweight who can do what he can on the feet.
Derrick gets ktfo. He threw 1 punch his last fight
I think I speak for most mma fans when I say we prefer not to hear about NFTs or the Nelk boys
you mad
HFSP
@@tom6655 you like men
@@LilGuyOfficial usually thoes who do like men can tell
All 4 of them have very likable personalities definitely watching this!
My love of beer, bbq food, anime and video games are all coming together with this card. Happy for whatever fighters take it.
Izzy having Joe Rogan's back was a great highlight too.
Where?
@@pissmillahgandullah9523 watch the full press! A bit over 8 mins in
Yeah that was awesome! Watch the whole thing
I'm wit Joe Rogan he isn't racist that's bs
F that joe rogan guy !
Gotta love that that friendship between Lewis & Tuivasa. Can't wait for them to 'swang and bang!'
Rob and Izzy are the elite of the elite. Looking forward to this one👌
Khamzat takes them both same night
@@ramzichouk4080 And another fanboy comment, bringing Khamzat into the conversation without any context. He’s not even in the same division as those ffs
@@nirash8018 he kills everybody you didn't understand or what?
@@ramzichouk4080 I‘m not talking about his skill level. I’m talking about his brainless supporters
This press conference definitely needed Derrick Lewis... This man is a national treasure 🙌
💛❤️💛🧡💛
Lets swang and bang then 😄
@@mattbushnell7885 no more talkin!
Lewis about to get ktfo
@aloevv𖤐 lol ur gonna get your CZcams account disabled bud
Listen idc what anyone says I hope Rob take the w even if he loses in the trilogy as long as he's the first to give it to izzy in MW. Deserves that much.
why does he deserve it? Bc u dislike Izzy? Or bc u like Rob & u just want him to win atleast once against the person that stopped him?
Naaah, anyone who deserve this are the ones who work hard to get the belt.
He deserves what he's able to accomplish in that octagon when that gate closes.
He deserves it if he beats him. This aint WWE. Im rooting for him, tho.
you forget Kevin ?
Hype fights like Lews and Tuivasa *tends* to become always the opposite. Please get back here if i'm wrong thanks.
Uh? Gaethje vs chandler?
I don't think this fight fails to entertain tbh I kinda have a feeling izzy vs Rob might be abit of a slow paced fight tho I hope not tho
@@donttalkshit9035 more technical than the 1st fight meaning we don't see much stand and bang
Tuivasa is no hype he lays mfs down like Mark hunt. Derrick Lewis is very inconsistent. I say Derrick gets ktfo
@@gigaforlife1629 Hence the "tends"
Its so good to see a humble fighter . Robert is the man !
Would love to see an upset. It's crazy but lets go Whittaker!!
looking at these comments it wont really be an upset, maybe to the ufc but not fans
Lets go Rob!!!!!!!
Shut up all the Izzy stans
@@too_sturdy Good luck with that
@@native00
It was close. But fairplay to izzy
@@too_sturdy Very close I kept saying Rob has to take the covington approach & throw a lot of volume & mix in the takedowns the takedowns worked but he threw 0 volume
Rob is all class. Love it
Still got issy though lol
Still waiting for Lewis vs Tuivasa faceoff
derrick is cutting weight still
Izzy done turned Rob into a tamagotchi.
@aloevv𖤐 bro I've seen all you're comments towards izzy, you have to be his biggest hater 😂👏
@aloevv𖤐 lmao keep hating
💕❤️🩹💕❣️💕
@@BackBeater he's everywhere
@@BackBeater he right tho.
Camera guys even smiling like a kid on Christmas 😂
“It’s a cool necklace” 😭
Izzy so tall and long. He's a very hard puzzle to solve.
Gastelum could've beat izzy had he not shot for the takedown after having izzy badly hurt
@@youknow2849 I get so mad everytime I see it, Izzy was really hurt, what was he thinking
Could have, Could have, nearly can not kill a bird. Izzy tutored Kevin G well
@@youknow2849 WELL go to another multiverse to see your outcome thoughts
Derek is everyone's homie that made it
TOTALLY. 🤣👍👍👍
Derrick*
@Alin Mihai 🤦♂️its literally his name lmfao and my name is Derrick too
Fighters that do it for the fun and excitement are a different breed. Love the vibe from all 4 of these guys.
Rob is just a quite monster. Nice guy. I'm wishing him luck. He definitely seems more focused than Izzy.
Why do you say that?
@@iohjrjghdftrsj9891 That he seems more focused?
@@Chef2451 yes
more focused but he lost LMAOOO
Still lost, to Izzy
the: lets swang and bang then, is gold
Love the respect shown, it's a rare thing
I feel Rob is gonna do a lot btter yhis time. He looks so relaxed. Its gonna be sad to see any of these guys lose, both in Main and Co-Main event.
Please Rob get this W
Like everyone said, the vibe was dope. I love how everyone has respect for each other. It’s not like disrespectful and yelling and spitting in each other’s faces. Just great speeches and then let’s fight it out and the best man will win
was lame tbh. i wanna hear some good trash talk
@@Sid_Vicious-hu6yn shaddap
@@alfie69420 hes right tho respectfull is boring. The views reflect it.
@@frek175 doesn't matter, its refreshing to see no fake beef as you know, this is a sport not WWE
@@alfie69420 theyre all respectfull nowadays. Its really not refreshing anymore.
Can’t wait for this!
I’m so excited for these fights!
Those NFT chains are corny af and I'll never be convinced otherwise
NFTs are just a giant pyramid scheme anyways. People dumb af for thinking they're "investing" by buying NFTs
@jabroni destroyer Finally another human who knows the truth. Bravo good sir
Can I get it one time👏🏾, for this lit as crowed and press conference. 🔥 🔥🔥
I assume Izzy turned off his necklace for the stare down? If he did, that's kinda cool. Respect.
Loved this press con.
Let's go Bobby knuckles for the win 👊
Izzy: Tries to promote the fight and get rob trash talking
Rob: Nope
I'm really looking forward to watching this😊
Chillest set of fighters in a press conference, if I ever see one.
Why isn't Cannonier and Brunson in this press?
Cus they’re boring
Because Brunson would hog the mic going "Israel you skinny bro, you skinny"
cannonier went to find his stones
On the stand-up fight, Izzy outstrikes and outlands Whittaker all night, but if Whittaker manages to get the fight to the ground and use his BJJ there, then the fight is going to get much more interesting
I disagree I think rob can 100% strike with him he was way too emotional and faught trying to kill him with every shot if he fights smart he can strike with anyone
@@brandontaylor1688 Izzy will most likely always get the better of the stand-up exchanges (mainly due to longer reach, better distance management and deception, footwork, and mixing up feints and fakes with his dynamic striking) and will very likely beat and finish Whittaker again just like in the first fight if the fight stays on the feet
Rob definitely took notes from the Jan vs izzy fight. Keep him on the ground and gas izzy out. If rob decided to stand up? I think he will get knocked out silly. If he manages to secure takedowns this time? Then he should be fine
One hell of a fight weekend
I like tai & robert's personality. Unfortunately they're both gonna lose badly. Hopefully not too badly & we get some highlights 💪
I heavily rooting for Whitaker but wouldn't bet on it. I think the hometown pressure will get to Lewis. He's talked about it before
Shit you from the future son?
I haven't bought a ppv in a while but this one excites me
love bambam's vibe.
Gonna be a fight card to remember
When you bring the fight, I counterstrike. When you don't bring the fight, I spam leg kicks and run for my life. Word.
Izzy & Rob are very far ahead of the rest of the division that Rob can lose and they could still end up doing a trilogy.
Rob vs Strickland
I got Izzy, but love Rob's attitude here tho, wouldn't be surprised if he shocked the world
love rob and his attitude
Seen every event since 212 and haven’t spent a dime! Looking forward to this one too!
How? Pmo
When it switched to Derrick and tai 😂😂
Gonna be a great card! Aussie 🇦🇺
I missed this so much
Nice to see the handshake, good to see there's mutual respect between the to if not much love
The UFC is sport's best show in town.
Robert is a a very humble guy
Respect ✊
Goddamn I hope Whittaker wins...
So do I, but I would not put money on it, at least not my money.
@@memeticist oh hell no
Наверное выйграет Адесанья, но буду болеть за Уитакера!
💘💗💘❣️💕
Сколько смотрю комментарии в е так пишут в том числе и я . Топлю за Роба,но не вижу как он сможет победить. Адесанья решением скорее всего .
@@belkisdiazz 😘😘❤️💓
@THERE WAS NO CHECK!!! yeah, we're deploying tomorrow.. oh wait, or after tomorrow.. oh no.. wait... it's in about a week or so.
@THERE WAS NO CHECK!!! this is number one bullshit
Whitaker is such a dope dude
Robert looks calm and focused this time
Izzy Baby, lets Go....
Bobby Knuckles look calm & confident. Rooting for him but Izzy will get it done again.
3 of some of the most likesble dudes in the game, and the most technical active striker all on the same stage
Rob is an absolute class act.
Adesanya is wayyy too good.
I agree with Izzy his last fight was boring.
Yeah, it was boring af
That's because he fights to the level of his opponents.
The guy is damn too smart...Why waste energy when you can save it and make more money lol
This was a very good press conference. No shit talk, just honesty and respect for each other.
Izzy says he has property in Whittaker’s head, meanwhile Jon Jones has real estate in his…
Izzy is a respectful trash talker if that makes sense
It does...lol
Whittaker keep saying same thing he said in his last fight with Izzy.
Izzy is just in his head and it's hard for him to stay in his character. As cool as he feign to be, he is just out of character from his body language!!!...
You think Izzy saying "I'm ready too" didn't drip of desperation.
i don’t wanna see any of these fighters lose bro
3 great fights so hyyped
I cannot wait to see Rob getting his belt back.
It wont happen
@@dopeyszn4738 we'll see
keep on waiting bozo 🥱
derek is a man of few words but them few words pack a KO
He's so boring his personality is dull he has to use edgey one liners to keep immature fans entertained like "my balls was hot"
@@youknow2849 I mean he was just telling the truth there. He answered a question that was asked him.
Good Sportsmanship.. two legends 🇭🇲🇳🇿
Much respect they both are warriors may the best man wins
"Nice bling bling"
Cyril Gane
Hard not to like Robert Whittaker. Class act.
Why would u not like him ?
Rob is the man! Humble, talented, humorous guy!! Amazing!
Fire!!!!!🔥Good luck.
Rob is such a good dude but Izzy is a baaaaaad dude. I just hope Izzy actually sits down in between rounds to rest his legs and I hope he worked on his boxing a bit more. He almost got clipped so many times in the last fight.
I came for all Derek’s nonsense. A night maker, as usual. 😄
Oh man I can't wait, two great match ups. This is what the UFC is about, then you got the whole Jones and Ngannou drama that seems never ending. It's going to be one beast of a UFC event that's for sure. Good luck chaps 100%
That necklace is something else lol
Houston's crowd is incredible. It is the most electrifying crowd in the world.
🤍💜🤍🖤🤍
That aint true in the slighest. Clearly never watched fights in Brazil, UK, Ireland or even just Cleveland, Ohio.
It's crazy how people hate Izzy for talking 10% of the trash McGregor talked and yet they loved him for it. Wild.
I wonder why?
most peoples problem with izzy isnt that he talks trash its that hes cringy as fuck. i like the dude but fuck i can barely stand the dude sometimes.
@@firefox12702 he's antagonistic is what it is
I hate him cause he is a clown
I hated Mcgregor 😂😂 still does. He is an overrated overhyped fighter. I don’t hate Izzy, but he’s a bit weird at times, but a lot of Adesanya fans, like Connor riders and Khasuals are really annoying, maybe that has something to do with it. Personally i feel he’s a good dude, but his trash talk often turns distasteful in a cringe way. Mcgregor was funny with it.
I see rob more calm, I hope he got good game plan and maximum preparation
This is what healthy fights look like. No fake drama , no man children yelling. Just two men talking with respect.
Izzy looking kinda tense. Whittaker a lot more chill.
