We need more guys like Josh Emmett in the sport. Total killers, respectable demeanor, well spoken and honest. There are too many Covington clown-show types running around in this business and it's just an embarrassment to this great sport.
only in the UFC ;) Check out the PFL
There really isn’t, there’s only once Colby Covington love him or hate him. Most guys are like Josh emett, they just don’t talk a lot so you don’t take stock of then
@@ashervirin9698 so true
@@kevinbissinger pfl lmfao
@@kevinbissinger okay Francis
So happy for Josh. He’s had a few set backs in his career, but he keeps coming back stronger. Nice guy too.
Dude has been an absolute tank for quite awhile. Glad to see him rebound cuz this year was definitely not kind to him. The way he conducts himself is pure class & I wish him well.
Str8up. Josh always a class act and a beast in the octagon.
Yah, He took off his shirt with that beast of a chest and I noticed he had a good camp and realized..... I was worried for Bryce, realizing he is playing house and finding his faith 24/7, so much you can tell he had an average Camp, he looked pretty soft ... Maybe Bryce will change camps next time.
@@stephenstuckey He is from my hometown Sacramento, CA. Ran into him several times at Whole Foods. A super nice and down-to-earth guy. His wife is smoking hot, by the way.
@@warrenstringham415 oh really? Thats cool man. Right on. And yeah I think I've seen his wife......smokin hot indeed👍🏻
Met Josh a while back at an open workout, gave me one of his shirts and took a selfie with me. Standup guy, glad he got the W before the holidays.
You've got to give it to Emmett. Fought 3 times this year and 2/3 of them contained some nasty damage to Josh where, unlike the Yair fight, the Topuria fight was almost totally one sided. He showed championship heart and determination to finish up the year strong while having risked his spot to fight a lower, hungry contender like Bryce (who deserves a world of respect as well for stepping up on short notice to give Emmett the chance to fight).
That was a big ko. I was a bit worried Bryce wasn't going to wakeup. I dont remember the last time i saw a guy with that much punching power at 145
it was scary, I can't remember a punch KO that gnarly. it was like a K1 head kick
Jeremy Stephens
Stephens finished emettt just as badly
@@ChumbynKnopa right. Forgot about lil heathen
Y'all forgetting about my boy 50K Dynamite Dan Ige. He gets them KOs clean too
I'm so happy for him. Had a couple of losses, so to end the year like this must be such a weight lifted of his shoulders. Glad he's back on track, because I really like the guy.
Coldest Knock out I’ve seen ever honestly. I’m stunned to this day
Much respect to Josh. His competitive maturity ruled the moment.
Dude is always pretty wholesome despite being a demon in the cage. That KO was honestly very scary to watch.
Side note: check out "Robert Whitaker Emmett falmer" 😂 👍
Yeah watching him seize up was crazy
Josh is a true gentleman and scary fighter.... A professional, it's a dangerous sport.
Josh knows what it’s like getting brutally knocked out. Jeremy Stephans broke Josh’s orbital bone and and knocked him out
So many fans said that Josh was too old to R&R when Topuria beat him, but he is too young to die .( Jethro Tull )
Nothing but respect about this warrior! Regards from Spain 🇪🇸🌹15
Lightin em up in Winnipeg!! Been a fan ever since! So easy to be a fan of Josh's, class act! Look forward to the next one man, congrats on another first round KO!!
I wanna see him become Champ let’s go Josh 🤜
Great interview, solid guy. Thank you.
😂 I was surprised how far of an underdog the bookies had Josh. Nice return 😊
Thank you for not following up with another punch in the moment. Cheers to your win. God bless you.
Love it when you see a guy realise he’s got KO power. The Lamas KO was deadly and it sort of opened his eyes to his own ability to put guys out clean.
This man is a class act. Wish more fighters were this stable and respectful. There are so many animals out there. And when you have guys like that it is so good for the sport. Just wish more had the morals this gentleman has. He’s so humble. Reminds me of GSP and Aljamain Sterling. Great individuals!
KO of the year or what!? 🔥💯
Has to be….
Especially as this year hasn’t been great for KOs anyway.
They might give it to Diego Ferreira or Islam Makachev if not him
one of the most interesting parts of ufc is seeing the difference between someone's personality in the octagon vs normal life. Khalil Rountree comes to mind too. Some of these guys are filled with such kindness and politeness that can be shut off completey for a fight, then turned back on.
4:50 Emmett talks about the KO
Love Emmet, just one of them fighters that is such a class act but will take your head off if he’s fighting you
I gotta admit, that was one of the most satisfying vicarious moments (schadenfreude) I have seen watching over 60+ years of combat sports.
Bryce went back to hunter gatherer times and saw a few t rexes before coming back to 2023 with that knockout
they didnt live amongst t-rex
Making fun of a guy getting a seizure... Nice.
Great fight, and my focus was on the respect you showed Brice. To anyone arguing he standing over Brice, imagine all the arginine going through that man, and he let it out without another shot before the ref stopped it. KO of the year nominee for sure💯
give this man more exposure!
it's legendary what Faber and the boys at AM have done in this sport
bryce saw a flat earth
Big fan of Josh Emmett a legit classy killer! Who btw, changed Bryce Mitchell's career forever, Josh literally put Bryce into twitch mode, every fight takes something from you, but there's no coming back from twitch mode. Same goes for anyone that's been brutally ko'd like this, an example would be Stipe who has yet to return from Francis which was way back in 2021... But, I hope I'm wrong and wish Bryce all the best.
I love Emmett
Of all people he knows how bad after shots are Jeremy Stephens almost made him retire from a devastating follow up elbow that was totally unneeded
Mann it was tough to watch Emmett getting absolutely picked apart by Yair, I hope he really has one last title run in him, especially after this KO of the Year and the deserving attention he’s been getting as of late. The homie Emmett stays reppin hard for Sac Town 👊🏽
I think you mean the fight against Ilia. Because Emmet had some success against Yair, landed good shots, he was submitted though, not picked apart, he was picked apart by Topouria though
*5 Performance of the Night Bonuses in his career.*
I wonder if this is the Masvidal knee of his career.
He’s had a couple awesome KOs like that.
Bryce was clearly underlevelled for Shimmermist Cave. The Falmer claims another adventurer.
He needs to bang the drum to get Max on the Volk vs. Ilia card
Man imagine if Josh had the skill with his power at 45. He’s just not well rounded enough.
Can't hate on this guy. He shows nothing but respect to everyone.
One of the most likeable fighters on the roster, solid
Great guy
Nice dude, hopefully hell fight for the title one day
Good dude, eveyone at the top is booked but max so that could happen. As far a title shot that’s tricky . Gotta see how the division plays out after these match ups
that dude def is the hardest hitter in 145LBS
Goblin is a beast.
Makin' Mordor proud 💪
Need Josh vs Max in Anahiem
all good ive had one of those seizures from a backyard moke out da bong before lol
People were really clowning Josh for his immediate reaction when he KO'd Mitchell but he had no idea a seizure would occur afterwards. You can't blame a guy on a losing streak to celebrate winning the fight in such fashion when he's got his adrenaline pumping.
Imagine not knowing who Josh is and wanting a fade. Gaining confidence to from his soft-spoken voice and relaxed
Demeanour….oh dear ☠️
Emmet Vs Volk would be a banger
Wow six years from the Lamas ko. i’m getting old
Nastiest KO at 145
Probably second, honestly. Yair left KZ sleeping for a couple minutes and he couldn't even move, it was like he was shot
@@pokemonovice9758stephens almost left emettt dead he was in and out of conciousness overnight in the hospital
That wasn't even a one-strike KO. It was a combo of several punches on the feet and then several elbows on the ground@@dylanmack7322
It's bad idea to fight guy with full camp on short notice, you can feel great you think you can do it but actually you can't, Bryce is example how bad and dangerous that can be.
Or you can be bisping and win the belt on short notice, depends on the fighter and if he stays in shape year rd and it depends on the matchup as well
Volk too
Dumb question, do these fighters or anyone get paid for their appearances on the MMA hour? Love this show and I think Ariel is a great interviewer. He asks perfect questions
NO !!!
Did you miss the whole Paddy ' Pay Me ' episode last year ?
@@walterkaiyuenpang3556no. I remember Ariel and Paddy had “beef” but I didn’t know exactly why. Can you fill me in on what happened please?
Scary power this dude. In any case, after his victory scream, he showed concern for Mitchell so he has nothing to feel sorry for.
Emmitt told him to have a good Christmas lol
Honestly Ariel sounds just like Russell from ownage pranks
Max v Josh for title eliminator
Helvani is being stupid. The optics of a guy screaming over a fellow fighter knocked out cold and then convulsing are not good. But Emmett’s reaction in the heat of the moment, full of adrenaline is understandable. But Helvani screaming, “Wjat?!!” is quite dumb.
Real life Rorshack
Max next ?
The world is flat. We live in a firmament.
what could have bryce done different? just charge him with his arms/hands protecting his face?
Thank Josh for "clocking in." This game goes ugly whether or not one is amongst the 'pretty."
That punch was so hard you could hear Bryce’s face crack through the tv. My fiancé looked at me like 👁️👄👁️
Eh, dude says that it isn't worth celebrating a KO like that, but then compares it to when Ali KO'd Liston and posts it on social media. Dude's a clown, and he would've had a hard time against Giga. Pretty sad that the highlight of his career is KOing a bad striker like Bryce Mitchell on 9 days notice.
Emmett vs Volk I'll pay $500 for that PPV on god
Congrats. Weight bully tho
this dude is so ganster
Hahaha He wants the winner of Topuria/ Volk but he lost with Topuria! hahaaa
His only losses In the ufc are to illia and Yair, beat Michal Johnson, beat kattar, beat dan ige, beat Jeremey Stevens.
Dude has a hell of a resume and I wanna see him fight max if he doesn’t fight for a belt because he deserves it
He’s on steroids🫵 💉💊
I was just hoping he knocked the flat Earth out of Bryce but that seems impossible
First thing I thought was well this just lowered this chances of being able to figure out the earth is spherical
@@ronbunn1349how did you figure out it was spherical? Did your grade 2 teacher just play you a Bill Nye video on space, and that was it?
Him fighting max is a waste of a fight
Why not? Granite chin against the hardest hitting featherweight ever is a solid matchup. Emmett is in the top 6 as well.
He should probably fight Giga before getting a #1 contender spot again.
One short notice fight KO coming off two dominant defeats doesn't warrant a fight with Max. I like Josh, though.
Bryce is a whole lot dummer after that ko...and that's not a good thing.
Weight bully
Mitchell was too rookie to fight Josh I think that was a really bad matchmaking by Dana white.
Josh Emmett: Steroid user
- Almost 40, Crazy weight cuts (walks around 185-190), muscular af (Gyno before every fight)
Throws reckless power punches, takes a lot of damage BUT NEVER GETS TIRED
-Illia fight: Tony Ferguson vs. Justin Gaethje level damage first 4 rounds. 5th round, throwing endless power
punches, crazy scrambles, taking big shots and NEVER GOT TIRED ONCE.
-Not an elite athlete. But somehow has the best cardio and power in the UFC?? NAH not buying it.
Brilliant analysis / insights~
Hey Bryce! Hope your concussion heals soon!
Maybe he just drinks milk with biscuits before going to bed every single day... Jon used to take a spoon of honey before his fights.
when flat earthers try to figure out why Bryce lost
Josh is not a steroid user?
Yeah he might be a good person but he's completely delusional and spreads misinformation so take it as you will
Anti-intellectualism is a cultural virtue in America
@@ronbunn1349I agree I mean 81 million people voted for Biden…..wait.
Emett should have followed up with a big hammerfist or ground and pound shots much similar to Dan Henderson style. I never liked or understood the walk off ko's. Just doesn't look the same in MMA unlike boxing where you can't do anything more about it once the opponent gets knocked down...
I hope you are not being serious.
Its more about safety of their opponent. If he is already unconscious, it’s totally unnecessary. Josh is a real martial artist.
Bryce might have not ever woken up. I'm glad he didn't follow up.
Haha 😂 What a stupid thing to say
One of the dumbest takes I've seen in a while. If that's what you were going for, solid work 👍
damm..that was one hell of a punch!! that sounded like a baseball bat hitting a slab of beef !
