Guida has ALWAYS BEEN the ever ready bunny of MMA, NOBODY has better cardio. He is relentless.
Don't know why the announcers were so surprised at Guida. Herb Dean has refereed many of his fights. It was obvious they wanted Thomson to win. I've been watching Guida forever and he has always been wide open every round. Congrats Clay! You deserve this title!
Guida is a badass!! Total defeat. The comentators wanted Josh to win, obvious. Can't just wish for a win , you gotta win
Boring
Geeeeze...the announcers sound like they're going to meet Josh in the shower to help him lather up. Not too bias eh? Guida earned his respect. He's a bulldog on a bone. Damn!!!
here we are almost 20 years later. Clay still hasn't run out of energy!
Guida was relentless. Always brings it.
Wrestling is boring.
😊
😊😊
Commentators obviously pulling for Josh throughout the entire fight. Calling the rubber guard a submission attempt AND saying submission attempts should be scored. Hate this. The beginning of the end of MMA
So glad he got his belt ❤
Shortly after this fight Josh and the announcers admitted they were getting married.
I have no idea how the judges thought that was close. Takedowns, strikes, and octagon control belonged to Guida the entire fight.
49-46 and 49-45 is 4 rounds to 1 or 4 rounds to 1 with a 10-8 round. Not close scoring.
Strikes?? Octagon control??
What fight did you watch..
All I watched was a dude from the 70s try to molest a kid fresh out school..
So boring
They need to nerf wrestling scores.
STILL TODAY.
I think these announcers are in love with Josh
they even talk about his mom
Let's take a breath, solid fight, it is not over
The right man won, hands down
@@mindsigh4 yg
strikeforce was based in san jose i think, josh is from there so the announcers probably knew him personally
Guida had to fight pretty much the entire organisation in that one, including the ref, none of them understand him, he's one of my favourite fighters and one of the toughest win lose or draw.
Clay let his hair run wild through the UFC after this fight
I don't think I've ever seen a more biased set of announcers. Guida absolutely destroyed Thomson. Won every round easily. And the whole fight, the announcers kept talking about Thomson and how great he was. Were they blind? Guida was amazing. Thomson spent 5 rounds on his back getting beat on. And the announcers had nothing to say about Guida--other than they kept expecting him to get tired.
Nothing that Clay did there was dirty nothing was intentional He’s never been a dirty fighter in 20 years these guys suck
I think the announcers were Joshes dad and uncle, that boy got his butt whipped.
Yup not bias at all. 😂
Nii@@jt6709
"Look how strong Josh Thomson is"
Yeah it's pretty obvious who they wanted to win
@@jameshughes525 fr
As he gets his face pounded
Cheer leaders
Maybe the worst commentators ever. One example among many. At the end of the 2nd round, they re-watch the illegal kick from Josh's: they need two takes on slow-motion to say it was illegal!
Another example. At the end of the 4th round, the most pathetic of the 3 amigos says "This fight could be 2-2". Sure, he adds "I don't see it that way" but it's wayyyy too late man: you needed 4 rounds to come to that?
But these commentators "wannabees" have a purpose, as they give us a life lesson: it's possible to inflict pain to someone just with words without even one insult!!!
They were saying "clay is breaking, hes getting desperate" what a joke! Clay is a badass! those announcers are the joke wishing for a draw....... they went home and cried themselves to sleep after josh was demolished! What an great example of how not to be as an announcer.
Guida is a tough cookie, always had been, he looks very refined compared to back in the day! Very improved! Go Guida
Josh's worse fear 😨? Clay Guida. 😆🤣
Dana while uploading this: Hey Josh, here is you award for working for Bellator 😂😂😂
Clay wearing Big 5 Sporting goods $8 gym shorts. Before big money came to the fight game LOL
Clay Guida what an OG he is one of my favorite fighters. Straight dominated his ass if you don't know clay Guida now know.
I just love ❤️ it clay Guida ❤️
My kids grew up in the town over from where he went to high school and every summer he came back there high school and taught wrestling for free went to the local bars invite everybody a drink just like one of the guys
@@ericbassett6389 that's awesome what a good story thanks for sharing. He seems to be a down to earth kinda man.
Strikeforce had it all at one point in time.
WEC was great too.
@@cerealkiller1638 hell yea it was. That was when Ben Henderson became my fav fighter at the time
The most biased commentary .....they Josh's training partners or what 🤷♂️dayum.
I’ve watched MMA for 15 years. This is by far the worst commentary I’ve ever heard.
Did they have money on Thomson?
Yeah, they were on his nuts.
Excalty that's all I'm hearing blablabla Thompson is all their rooting for they sound so fukin stupid
COMPLETE IDIOTS.
Thompson was the bigger name having fought in the ufc with a good record, clay Guida was relatively unknown and up and coming guy
I agree 150%. They tried to steal it that's for sure.
Yo this page is a hidden gem 💎
This is a 2006 fight that was just posted. Yes, that's the same Josh Thomson who beat Nate.
Gotta break it down for all the fucken casuals
he definitely beat Diaz
O(okool@@active.7universal
Guida destroyed Thomson
always down to watch a Guida fight. always impressive.
Clay Guida and diego Sanchez was a great fight from beginning to the end
Always loved watching clay fight. Dude had near limitless energy and was a well rounded fighter.
These "commentators" are cheer leaders!
Clays a beast
Good techniques both guys i like it
Clay whipped the hell out of Josh.
Clay is back! Dominated the whole fight.
back...this is a old vid lol dunce
@@rockzen8050 your so nice.
@@RoosterIB Nice and smart enough to know Clay hasn't looked 20 for 20 years lol get a better since of situational awareness lol kinda guy who looks one way before ya cross the street huh mate lol
@@rockzen8050 Dontcha just love CZcams? Now get STUFFED! :)
They obviously are new to mma. Clay is a badass from way back in the ufc.
Pretty sure this was before guida's ufc days. Still a bad boy though.
Clay Guida was a beast
what an epic fight with two young fighters. 11/10
Josh Thomson: the guy who headkicked Nate?
Different Josh Thomson...
Wait. Maybe it's the same.
Ok. This is a 2006 fight that was just posted. Yes, that's the same Josh Thomson who beat Nate.
Commentators are what in love with josh Kicks up and clay is the dirty fighter Then wants to give the round to him when clay did a clinic in him Clay is a machine
Guida dominated. Truly the people’s champion.
The dumb guy announcer is cracking me up….so funny.
Wow thompson looked like a rookie there. Beat down
My memories of FCG will always be of him literally running away from an opponent for the majority of the fight.
Not surprised… Clay Guida is a bad boy !
Kudos to Guida, he showed some determination. Guida has many years of experience in UFC so I was expecting more than just keeping a man down, but anyway a win for him. Don't know about one of the commentators which was even giving a round to Josh. Stupid is as stupid does.
Dude 😮... This was BEFORE the UFC and Dana White. This is not a fight from a year ago. More like 10+ years ago. 😂😂😂
@@frankgennon1 Thanks, it had me fooled. A lot of people posting things to get credit on others back.
CLAY GUIDA TEM MUITA RESISTÊNCIA, MUITA ENERGIA ACUMULADA, BATERIA DURACELL!
Commentators ruined this fight
Very nice fighter both
Thompson after 4 rounds on his back getting dominated... announcers:" It could be 2-2". LOL
Clays fighting technique has never changed. He rushes in and takes a barrage of hits to his face and then does relentless ground and pound to his opponent. His face has become a punching nag over the years but proves time and time again he has the stamina and chin to keep going lol. Herb dean once again proved how incompetent he is as his stoppages we're garbage.
Great!
Clay was a fucking badass
camera work sucks on this frequently
Josh was either unstoppable or just didn't show up
Or maybe he just wasn't good enough on the nights that he wasn't unstoppable
Sounds like excuses you're making
Or he just got beat by a better fighter so stop trying to make excuses for the dude.
@@MrWolfchamp-xi3cu exactly
Commentators calling an end to the fight didn't look at the clip length.
Clay Guida has always had amazing cardio. The announcers are calling the fight they'd like to see while Josh spends time on his back. Lose and gain 15 pounds in a day? Of course, you're not going to be at your best BUT why manage your weight like that?
Are these the best commentators Strikeforce can find?
This was the most biased commenting from ring side ever. LOL. Guida the beast!
RIP CLAY
wow these announcers are openly and blatantly rooting for Thompson
The Strikeforce announcers were always gobbling on J. Thompson's sack whenever he was in the octagon. They talk about him like he's the 2nd coming of Jesus and act like he was the baddest man at any weight. I listen to his podcast sometimes and i followed his fighting career only because i was a fan of mma, he's alright but he's historically never been great at anything despite having endless resources.
😂Gotta love when announcers continue to say how great this guy is as he's getting his ass handed to him 🤯
These commentators sound woke
Clay kicked this guy's ass
No answer Thomson. Clay has fought for a decade by now or longer. Those announcers know nothing about Clay. Clay owned Thomson. Congrats Clay.😃
That 'dirty' 'eye gouge' was the edge of the glove. Look closely at the replay. Clay's hand was closed. The edge of the glove might've went across his eye. But it wasn't a finger. And it wasn't intentional. That's bullsh!t the ref and announcers saying otherwise
Heatmost fight
they better zip up Thomasons pants when they were done
Did Josh land one strike?
Nope
Only illegal ones
Clay at his best
24:47 - There's a dead person in the crowd. Do you see em?
Too many unwarranted standups.
Boy, the commentators are so biased!
I can NOT believe anyone in their right mind thought this young fella may have done enough to win that alone draw. Are you friggin kidding me!! Guida controlled EVERY F'N round what was it, a hundred take downs are you kidding me! They were trying to do everything they could to keep that belt away from Clay even cheat if they could. I hope Clay just retires with the damn belt and then throw the damn thing in the ocean.
Thompson didn't throw many punches to take away Guida's strength!
20:14-20:24 Clay hits Josh twice, Thompson misses. Announcer: 'Good combination from Thompson!' The bias is unreal.
DID YOU GUYS HERE!? The announcers both have Joshes name tattooed on their asses.
Looking back Guida has had a much better career than Thompson. Their pretty golden boy fell a bit short. And holy fuck they got Chuck Norris
I don't care how bad ass you think you are or what award you get..when Chuck Norris hands you the belt you made it bro.
Chuck coronando a Clay Guida un honor un merito campeón en Striforce el gran Clay
Clay demolished him
He dry humped him… he didn’t get demolished
Sinyal jele. K jangan bikin kecewa bos
Qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqhapusemang krena apa bos
I can't believe the announcers didn't say the possible 2-2 was scored 10-8, 10-8 in favor of Josh Thomson!
Does Josh blow the commentators on the reg or something?
Well, it’s obvious.
Alot of eye gouging going on though?
I love Clay and to be champ and have Chuck Norris give him his belt..nothing better.
the commentators are shamelessly biased. I am embarrassed for them, for their level of incompetence and arrogant prideful ignorance. The kind of men that would kill you and think they did God service
Uh....let's not go too far.
lmao thanks chuck norris
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Worst announcers. That was like a man fighting a child. Their cousin Josh never even made it close.
A posição das câmeras muito ruim.
The CNN of mma announcers.
It’s like Clay is Trump.
I don't know the name of curlhair men he never have guts to fight straight in front opposition
Josh was winning the whole time except he wasn’t.
One of the announcers is Josh's husband!! Sooo one sided. Hilariously so was the fight. Just not the way they thought!! I think the All-American poster boy just got the snot slapped out of him and what a surprise...he couldn't be humble in defeat....like a frigging 3 year old coming up against the realization they are not the centre of the world!!
These announcers are a joke, josh spends 4 out of 5 minutes on his back getting punched...."i got it as 9-9"
Those commentators are terrible.
Those commentators were a joke!

Clay is not a fighter, he is a wrestler. He refuses to stand up like a man and fight because he is scared. He should go to wwe
