The smile on Dana's face when he says Colbys next cracks me up lol. He looks so happy
He knows colby would generate ppv buys more than belal lol
He prays big time for Colby to get this so he can make conor VS Colby for the belt
@@barney_jones2606lmfao the press conference for that fight would be unreal
@@vaellanshanmuru6405barely. He’s not the draw ya’ll make him out to be
@Kiko-px8hu at least he does more than belal, rumour has it belal only got 1 ppv last fight and it was his wife 🤣🤣
what a card to close the year
This is why Leon Edwards has the most aesthetic physique
Damn right...
you going to the fight???
I figured you would be here lmao
Can someone please explain to me this joke?
Leon vs Overeem for the Very Fantastic Body belt
google it@@CoolPandaTheMovieNerd
That Leon vs Colby fight is faaantastic
Rogans reaction always gets me 😂😂
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.........
It was so fake and cringey
Joe Rogan always says the dumbest shit and always talks sooo much shit about how this dude is so talented and such a beast til they get smashed and he’s like well it happens 😂😂😂
Leon edwards head-shot was poetry in motion throwing usman a fake left then delivering that was a thing of beauty
Usman is still sleeping 😂
@vaellanshanmuru6405 put some respect on Usman name. If he was champ rn he would have defended 3 times already. Leon a boring lame inactive champ
@@shanefowler9443 u do know hes fighting colby nxt right...
@@vaellanshanmuru6405 no i saw him end chimaevs hype train like a month ago
@@shanefowler9443 this is Leon’s second fight this year your just waffling
Leons striking is Flawless 💯
Yeah, especially in eye poking
Nate had Leon's ass beat. You were probably busy when that happened.
@@truthseekerKJV Nate landed a lucky punch after getting his ass beat for 24 minutes, and still couldn't get it done.
@@truthseekerKJVnate 😂 nate won 1 min of a 25 min fight
straight left down the centre, do doubt colby will be trying the same..............@@madgavin7568
Cuts to Dana saying ‘Cobys next’ with a big ol smile 😂😂😂
Love it let’s go I don’t care who wins with Leon and Coby just want a classic
Yeah I actually like both of them to be honest. both are really good fighters.
Leon goat
knowing leon, this fight is going to be SUPER technical, i dont expect a slugfest, but if we get one, colby is coming out of that one
Banger card to end the year with. Thanks UFC ❤️
It's alright
Royval is the most exciting fighter in the division - win or lose I'm just so happy he got a title fight!
Colby brings entertainment inside and outside the octagon, let's go Colby, it's 50-45 time!!!
Chasing single legs all fight trying not to get ko’d, his styles boring af
@@2ClutchCee Until I single leg takedown you kid.
This is as 50-50 as it gets 💯🔥🏆
No way a slight, 5'10" or so 36 year-old D1 wrestler, with average striking, is going to have a 50-50 shot against a 32 year-old 6'2" 190lb elite striker with very good wrestling --- not as good, in pure wrestling, as Colby's D1 but good enough to be champ, as one of the 8 other elite striking based UFC champ roster, a roster which is totally devoid of D1 wrestlers (hasn't been for years) ---- with elite TDD, and with very good BJJ, who is stronger, faster, and more agile.
If they had fought 4-6 years ago, sure, a 50-50.
Today, Colby has roughly a 7% probability. At the UFC, only 2 out of 29 fights that someone 35 or over was able to take the belt from a prime guy.
D1 wrestling is not MMA; nor is WWE.
If D1, in general, was as powerful AN MMA TOOL as you silly boys are saying, there would be several D1 wrestler champs at the largest MMA organization in the world.
If Colby's D1, in particular, was as overwhelmingly effective as you silly boys said, Colby wouldn't have to wait until he's almost 36 to win the belt from a bigger, taller, younger, faster elite striker who defeated Usman twice in a row.
If Colby's D1 was that effective, he would have rag dolled EVERYONE put in front of him since he BARELY defeated a 5'8" BJJ guy in RDA, who was #1 in 2018, when #4 Colby squeezed by him on his way to his first belt fight against Usman....
There is NO DOUBT, Colby is a very durable fighter, with very good cardio. But, unfortunately, he isn't any bigger, taller, stronger, faster, or more capable than Islam or Charles, at 155. (I'd pick both Islam and Charles to beat Colby, too, given their specialty in BJJ...plus their elite Muay Thai, with Islam also being a Sambo & Judo elite.)
Anyway, at 170, Colby just doesn't have the height, size, strength, agility, range, or sudden-fight-ending skills or power to defeat the likes of Usman, Leon, Shavkat et al.
@@kiabtoomlauj6249finally an extremely realistic comment about Colby who doesn’t deserve a 3rd title shot over beating a retired Masvidal. He’s not dominating the fight in any manner, everyone is underestimating how good Leon is and will see December 16
Colby by whatever he wants.
Yea almost 36 year old inactive colby about to dominate leon 😤 such a logical pick
@@UsykWillBeatFuryViaEzDecision very logical pick. Yea Leon who has no gas tank little wrestling ability who struggles with pressure is gonna beat the guy with the best wrestling, cardio, and pressure in the the whole division.
😂
@@uniopp1 No gas tank? The man went 5 rounds with Usman and won! Colby gunna get smoked
@@uniopp1 yea very logical pick, Leon just shut down everything usman had for 5 rounds, and nullified him in the clinch everytime. But yea, little colby who was struggling with a small 155er out of prime rda will definitely bully leon. Smart pick, super logical 😤
I'd feel bad for either guy who loses. You know Colbys gonna talk a lotta shit and if Leon loses to that guy its gonna humiliating, but if Leon wins, that solidifies him fs, but u know Colby probably not gonna get another opportunity ever again
Yeah a 3rd title shot loss would maybe be the end of the road as far as the title goes. Not necessarily if he gets active, because I think he can pretty well clean out WW at present, but that just doesn’t seem to be his mindset.
He could keep fighting though. Maybe go after a guy in a similar place in Dustin. Or Justin or some of those other LWs. Or he could try to angle for that Conor sweepstakes. He’d have options in the event of a loss, but not as good as if he wins obviously
If colby loses would not be surprised if he retired dude had a good career and most likely wont get another title shot. Also alot of colbys shit talking is just for media stuff he actually is a really chill dude except for the beef with masvidal that shit was real
Colby never deserved this shot in the first place. He has 0 wins over any currently ranked WW.
@@colejames423kamaru is still in welterweight, Colby ain't cleaning anything
@@uwotm8634Exactly. Dont know why the guy is feeling sorry for him😂
Let’s GO!!!!!! Defend that belt once again ROCKY !!!! 🇯🇲🇬🇧👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾💯✅✅
They should of added Shavkat and wonderboy to the promo as well! That fight is going to be amazing
Those UFC Trailers are getting better and better ❤ 😮 more exciting than anything else
this is by far the best ppv event of the year, and what a way to close out the year so pumped for this card!
🧢
One of the best but not "The Best"
295 was crazy , UFC Paris was also
Not even close to the best
Making the welterweight division great again 🇺🇸
loooooooooooolllllll
to getting smashed.
Damn right
Lol... you mean boring?dude is decision machine and no ability to finish the fights...I hope if he wins he wins by finish at least.
Only way Colby wins this fight is by laying on Leon for 5 rounds .
People Complaining about Leon wanting Double Champ opportunity after this W, don't even realize Colby gets a title Shot off 1 WIN 😂😂
You realize that makes it worse, right?
That makes it worse for leon as well
He only defended the belt once against the same guy he won the belt from
Even if he defends against colby he doesnt deserve to fight for the 185 belt
Colby got Dana White privilege thats why
@@katatistathat person was #1 p4p at the time, and leon beat him decisively twice
@@calebfoster1832true but who did Colby fight compared to Leon? Leon coming off a fight with the best welterweight they said..Colby last fight was who? Lmaoo and was it impressive? In this division it’s only but so many people that would make sense soo yea after dude give a chance for champ champ very simple
Lets go Colby 🔥
Boooooo
@@Fung-Fung Colby champ
@@mavvynne444 And still. Strap season 🇬🇧
Probably the best card of the year.!
Colby has the chance to do the funniest thing ever and complete the new trilogy of American Kings era with O'Malley and Strickland
There's already 3 American champs, did you forget Jones?
White* era. Aljo was already American lmao.
@@isaiahgilbert4313 So when Izzy, Usman, and Ngannou were champs was that the black era? This is so absurd lol. I guess there's a brown era right now as well with Brazilian/Mexican champs.
@@uwotm8634Yes lmao the 3 African born champs was a thing it’s just weird how people forget Aljo was an American Champ
@@DarrenReddix-jl1gu Yeah then OP is just stupid I guess
Damn! Got Colby taking the w for this one 💪🏾 🇺🇸
Hope leon lays him out
Looking forward to this fight card!
This Undercard is gonna end the year with a big bang and I can’t wait.
The fan favorite matchup is Shavkat vs Wonderboy hands-down! 2nd round TKO highlight reel win for Wonderboy! It’s strap season for WB! 🥋
This card is insane 🔥😭
I would love to see Colby finally get the undisputed belt, whay a wholesome moment it will be😂
After this fight (i believe colby loses) we’ll look back at colby’s career much differently
He won’t
Leon is the man though, how can you route against him?
Lame moment, since Colby didn't earn the opportunity, was gifted it and would ruin Welterweight for years.
Lets go Colby !!
Leon gonna smash him
Let's go Leon "Rocky" Edwards! Look at me now!
Colby is ez money. Gonna make it look easy vs leon.
I want colby as a champ so bad
Why?
Same 😂😂😂 Shit will be hilarious
hmmm... Ok... good for you I guess...
and that's why Leon Edwards is the cure to cancer
@@steelforge6637 because everyone loves him. That’s why.
So happy to see Colby back to the octagon, the most stacked card in 2023 from prelim all the way to main card
GREETINGS NERDS N VIRGINS. The CHAMP IS HERE
this is keeping me soo warm luv this fight can't extremely wait
Let’s gooooo Colby . That’s literally my dream to see Colby as a champ .
Hell yeah. Will be even more awesome to see him defend the belt. He's a young 35 and has a lot left in the tank
@@bobbyr2972yesssir man he’s fighting on my birthday and my brothers are huge fans we’re gonna go out to see the fight. I hope he wins too
Colby will take him down then ground and pound! AND NEW!
Lol Leon will knock him out cold
@@timothy_pitcock.
Colby's gonna lose LET'S GO!
Pull it out of the fire LEON!
Don't let em bully ya son!!! 💥🇬🇧
Hell yeah
I'll definitely be streaming the card totally legally
Finally some spotlight for my guy Royval
Belal is somewhere coping right now
UFC needs Colby! Wait till he gets that belt boy!!!!💯
They absolutely do not need him at all 😂
Colby is boring. Colby needs the UFC, not the other way around 😂
I mean how Character wake up he hypes fights!!!
Thanks for the video, UFC
0:09 The classic trio reaction
*As a fellow Brit I want Leon to win but I also want to see another head kick KO. There's no deying this fight could go either way though, which is why it has the potential makings of a truly great fight!*
The onlybway Leon loses is if his cardio isn't up to scratch as colby is a cardio machine apart from that Leon beats him in every department
Behave Colby's more British than Leon will ever be
@@kevins8386 How do you work that out?
@@KOPITE8989 I hope you’re right but Colby knows this is his last title shot so he’s bound to go all in.
I want Colby win this fight ❤
Shots Fired by Easy McCoy, what a great song, same song used for the Fury vs. Wilder 3 trailers.
AND NEW!!!!!! Let's go Covington
BOTTOMLINE u dont beat an elite wrestler like Usman twice and not have good tdd. Edward just needs to keep it standing long enough to drop Colby.
Well, you are correct, but Usman doesn’t rely on his wrestling as much Colby, so I don’t think it’s really a fair way to assess things.
Colby will shoot, shoot and shoot again. Usman didn’t need to use his wrestling the 2nd Leon fight and was dominating until he got kicked, and I think he was really gun shy about doing anything in the rematch.
That’s not to say Leon can’t or won’t be able to stuff Colby’s wrestling, but I think it will be a little more difficult than it was with Usman. If nothing else, Colby will utilize volume like he always does.
I’m excited for Shavkat vs Wonderboy
God why. It’s gonna be depressing af
@@colejames423 says who? Horrible matchup for Shavkat. Second round TKO highlight real win for Wonderboy. He’s gonna make it look easy. It’s strap season for Wonderboy.
@@djtheory313 imagine believing that Wonderboy has the matchup advantage against the Sambo stud. Must be nice. In reality, we’re likely going to see Rakhamonov rag doll WB at will just like Belal did.
@@colejames423 Belal did what? Besides hold onto WB for dear life and praying for the win. Sumbo isn’t that effective at its core, like sport karate is for WB. Even Belal said himself that WB was the hardest fight he’s ever been in the cage or in practice that’s his words not mine he said Khamzat was an easier opponent he wanted to face. I guess fans throw the word “ragdoll” around to loosely. Don’t forget WB is the one who accepted the fight because for starters WB is the A-Side and because Shavkat finally has a couple decent wins because before that Shavkat was calling him out with no merit and WB would’ve gained zero taking that fight, plus because WB will be the backup to the Leon vs Colby fight and also they promise WB a title shot. WB never needed the money since coming to the UFC he was already set and he fights for the legacy 🥋
the real treat is Shavkat vs Steven! these guys are the cherry on top
2023 ending with banger and 2024 starting with banger.
Leon is really good in 5 round fights I think he wins by KO late or a decision.
Colby is built for 5 rounders. Leon doesn’t have a cardio problem necessarily, but perhaps no one in the UFC has better cardio and pace than Colby. I don’t think 5 rounds plays into Leon’s favor as much as Colby’s.
Ring rust is real.
@@HouseOldSkoolRaver only when it fits the narrative
@@HouseOldSkoolRaver I'm routing for Leon alm day, but even he said ring rust isn't real
@@Fung-Fung Colby has been out for over a year and a half. He's over 35 as well, his best days are likely behind him.
I really wanna see Colby as a Champion. It will change the dynamics of the division so badly... and then the Dream fight. Colby vs Islam Makhachev would be a feast fight...
Keep dreaming. Only one to lose 3 title shots. Biggest loser of all time 🏆
@@iChristiannn Ring Rust... He was slow tonight to throw bombs and too Cautious... Last round was all convington but still loss is a loss.. I'm sure he'll comeback stronger and beat Leon Scott in a rematch
@@BriefOutreach he's not getting a 4th title shot hahahah
He's not fighting shavkhat or any of the other killers. He ONLY fights 37 year olds who are about to retired. Maybe a Wonderboy fight?
@@BriefOutreachyou can’t complain about ring rust when Colby dodged fights until they gave him the title shot. It’s his own fault.
what a card for the end of year banggg
THE CHAOS IS AROUND THE CORNER!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Hope leon send him to retirement 💀😤
Colby "The New Champion" Covington 🎉
I'm hyped for Pantoja vs Royval
Now THAT'S how you do a Trailer !
The most aesthetic physique Leon ‘daddy’ edwards vs bedroom cardio colby Covington
Aesthetics don't win fights
@@hughmungus1235 yes it does
Let's go leon Edwards I'm rooting for you ❤
Leon’s hardly active

Happy Independence Day my dear Kazakhstani fam , we all deserve it to see how great this card will be , Shavkat baurym Alga
Future WW champ
UFC at it again 🔥
Based title shot. Only nerds and virgins are crying about it.
🍆 🚲
@@madgavin7568 🤓❌😺
Colby skipping Belal for a title shot will never cease being funny 🤣🤣🤣
Belal deserves to go to the PFL
Who tf is Belal?
who's Belal again?
Belal's time will come soon, these two aren't on his level
Who?
Pantoja💪
Go Royval!!!✊🏾✊🏾
What a fight. So excited for this, routing for my fellow brum boy!
Hope Leon wins so that the division stays active. If Colby wins it would be a year before he makes his first title defense.
So true
Leon ducking Shavkat 😑😂
Now that I see Leon trying to be double champ I take back my words
@@kavinraj4689 naaah fuck it. Leon would make a great double champ imo
@@Fung-Fung He needs to earn the double champ shot like Volk did.
Shavkat versus Wonder Boy is going to be a classic
The *uncrowned WW champ*
-p4p king
i want colby win so bad
Cant just be me that doesn’t see colby as big of a threat as others right?
Sure he’s more relentless with good knees but he’s smaller then usman, strong but not as strong as usman, has effective but sloppier striking and doesn’t carry much power(but does have volume).
I got Leon
Your probably just biased cause you don't like Colby.
Colby is a matchup nightmare vs Leon crazy cardio and output with great wrestling which are Leon's weaknesses.
@@theplandemic4379great wrestling where? Usman also had great wrestling. And was much stronger.
@@theplandemic4379 I’m biased for pointing out facts? And who tf said I don’t like colby😂🤦🏽♂️
@@DarrenReddix-jl1gu I told people that Leon would perform much better than expected and look how that turned out lol
If Leon chops and stomps that lead leg of Colby down like he did against Usman, that cardio advantage for Colby will be a non-factor. Its the Achilles heel of all cardio bullies.
Super excited for this card
Let's go Colby!!!!
Covington couldn't beat Usman, Edwards could.. i think people are gonna sleep on Edwards again for this one!
Colby 3,4,5
MMA math is irrelevant, Leon is an easier matchup for Colby than Usman.
@@TuckerWittenberg376 Covington copium, he never beat Usman.
@@BreastMilkEnjoyerXhe’s not, colby was also struggling to grapple rda. Leon will shut him down no problem
@@UsykWillBeatFuryViaEzDecision Bro hates colby so much he commenting on almost every post LOL cope harder
Joe: Colby is stopping world class fighters. He's a nightmare.
Kamaru: Hold my beer.
Colby 3-2
Who has he stopped lol? Woodley off a rib injury?
@@erikjohansen7850evenif that was the case which it wasn't round 2 was a 10-8 with colby getting dropped twice
@@erikjohansen7850 Deluded Colby fan.
@@erikjohansen7850 cope and cry.
Can't wait!!!!!
Leon is the man!
Colby ❤
Would be cool to get covington vs strickland if colby and sean win, would be the most entertaining press conference.
Are they friends or have any relationship btw? Seems like they could be friends tbh
@@fan4every1lol89 They have beef, Colby doesn't like how Sean talks about women
@@uwotm8634that's hilarious coming from the guy who buys prostitutes just so he can stand next to them
THE GOAT IS BACK BABY. 50-44D JUDAS
Eses tipo puede comprar lo q le da la gana demasiado poderoso
AND NEW 🇺🇸
With probably a year left in fighting, I appreciate Colby now more than ever. Let's go, and NEW!!! 👊👊👊
Colby is the most inactive ranked Welterweight. Fought only four times since 2019, 2-2 in those fights and none of his wins are over anyone ranked currently.
Excellent video
Leon has fantastic physique and have different level skills
COLBY MAKE UFC GREAT AGAINN!!
The fact that Colby is next says so much about Dana as a human.
Definitely, the best promotor in the world giving us fights we want and need to see
@@SinestetKanal yea like fumbling Jones vs ngannou, and instead giving stipe vs Jones. And failing to do a ufc Africa card after all these years about talking about it.
@@UsykWillBeatFuryViaEzDecisiondude, you’re as wrong as your CZcams name…guys crying over Colby getting a title shot are just boring, but it will be even more fun when Colby takes the title
@@SinestetKanal keep riding dana lmao, he has proven time and time again that he’s a failure. The same way colby is, this will be his 3rd opportunity at a title, and he’ll fail as usual.
It's all business
AND NEW COLBY CHAOS COVINGTON 🔥
In 2019 Colby fought an outta prime Lawler and got a title shot against Usman. He took a year off and fought another out of prime Woodley. Turning down a Leon Edwards fight he took 14 months off before being fast-tracked to a second title shot. He then faced Masvidal and was absent for 21 Months. Now he's getting a third title shot after ducking the top contenders in his division. If you still think he deserves a title shot be honest with yourselves. You're only a fan because of politics.
Some people still think its 2019 🙄
I can’t wait for this card! Let’s go Colby 🇺🇸
Let's go colby love ❤️ from India 🇮🇳
Colby's pace will smoke scissor hand 🇮🇳
Colby is going to MAUL Leon
Don't think so
Let's go Leon!!!!!
Let's go Leon Edwards for the win
Glad to see a ppv with no HW or WMMA fights on the main card
All the best Colby!👍🤞
A hero from England🇬🇧 against 🇺🇸an American villain, Let's go👊
He's only a villain to the leftists who are obsessed with identity politics and loathing their own country.
