Take a sip of that drink uncle Chael I don’t believe you like that stuff
😂😂😂
Hahaha for real
He doesn't want to drink too much because then be gone and he won't be able to taste MORE of it! Don't impugn the character of the LEGEND who has more integrity than Kurt Angle and the chairs that Chris Christie and. JB Pritzker sit in, COMBINED!
That’s still the first can from the original sample pack they sent him.
@@Bottomfeederonfire dude. He's a partner in the business. 🤦🏿♂️
someone said that izzy was 217 going into the Jan fight lmao. Dude has hovered around 200 for most his career
That's just water weight from hydrating back up. He's still a small light heavy
@@TouchdownTamagotchi naw what I’m saying is that person was lying that said he was 217 in that fight. He weighed in at 195, does not make sense to cut all the way down to 195 and now back up to 217. Izzy rn is 230 and idk why he is, likely focusing more on building muscle and adding size to counter Dricus weird bully style. Shows he respects the threat
He wasn’t 217 he was under 205
@@mrmolloy yeah that was my point
@@codeblueopinions2908that’s what izzy wanted us to say the dude lost the blachowicz fight before it even started he cut down an extreme amount of weight just for people to say he didn’t rehydrate and he was undersized he had a premade excuse
Izzy bulked up after UFC 293.
He realized he needs more power in his shots
He doesn't need to bulk to gain power. He just needs get on his cycle again.
Bros never weighed 230
@@louisspace9134 I dont think he's on juice tho.
@@anonymousanonymous7770gyno? Or is it weed
@@radicaIarchitect neither buddy.
Uncle Chael, I'm catching what you are laying down. This is loud and clear about bones jones and how he "gained' weight to make heavyweight.
No way of knowing for sure what Jon was doing, I wouldn't put it past him, but he doesn't exactly have a history of using without getting caught*, and his weight gain was completely realistic naturally. Especially considering part of it was belly pudge. He walked around at about 225-230 for LHW, last fight Jan '20. He weighed in at 248 in Mar '23, 26 months later. That's less than 1lb/ month. Izzy's isn't realistic naturally for someone his age and height, who has been training for 1.5-2 decades already. Particularly considering we know he's been back in the martial arts gym for several months now and that his gyno was back in a picture he posted back in spring
*I say he doesn't have a history of not getting because there was a noticeable difference in his physique every time he popped and there weren't really any times we saw that when he didn't pop, but again, who knows
@@LarryMayvidgood honest take… however I just wanna add… pics are deceiving, gear doesn’t always add size
@@LarryMayvidJon’s was out of usada pool. They couldn’t test him. You can’t be that slow. Jons 100% used them.
@@LarryMayvidwhat do you mean at his age? Like he’s young or old?
Yeah, Jon gained weight by getting fat. Sure he got strong, but no steroids, so basically he got fat to the point that he said was embarrassed to take his shirt off in his fight with Gane. If Jon was ripped at 240, drugs. If he's fat at 240, that's expected.
230 fighting at 185... ufc fighters are scared of each other lol
Fighters have always done that. Light heavyweights almost killing themselves to drop down under 180-185 at weigh in and balloning back over 200 on fight day.
Basically every weight class does this and only a rare few actually fight in they're weight class but fight 1 or 2 classes under
I think it’s obvious he wants the belt back and then to go after Poatan. He wanted LHW gold already now his rival has it.
@@stuartmccleary Banger but he has to win vs ddp otherwise his hype will be dying
He hardly cut weight to hit 185. He was 204? No cut fighting at 205. If he cuts ans gets decent at it he will be a beast
@@codyparker679 who wins Jiri or Izzy? In your opinion
He’s basically saying that Izzy is on the juice lol
Yeah this was all a polite _[shhhh passive aggressive]_ way of saying it. lol
He should know lol he did it too but as long as he's just doing it for recovery and not fighting for a while its perfectly fine.
I don't think Izzy has ever been on juice tbh.
They all are anyway, literally
@@anonymousanonymous7770 his gyno induced B cup would beg to differ
No one wastes my time like Chael Sonnen on CZcams 🤣
Chael, you have really become great and have reached your prime in the commentary world. Your data resonates and reminds me the actual event, date, or a previous video created by you. From those “mean streets” back home, to where you are now…..great f job! Hard work, but you paved a way for all the ufc and other mma athletes to be part of broadcast. You’ve made your mark, brother. Smell these roses. Great f video. I’ve been a huge fan of this sport since inception, and I don’t miss much of ANY action. This channel, surely! It’s a must. Thanks bro
LET'S GO COACH GREG!
thought the same thing
His name sounded louder than last time!!!
Nutritionist? No, no, "nutritionalist" 😂
As a fan of Izzy I’m definitely concerned. He’s not a grappler, his path to victory is through speed, agility and technique. I always question when a previously successful fighter starts really emphasizing his weight, or strength and conditioning.
Not only those reasons, but also because of his height and reach. It would be awesome to see him become a double champ, but the road there would be a significant challenge as he will lose speed and the height advantage
Izzy takedown defense is pretty good tbh. He’s not bad on the ground either. He fought a lot of dominant wrestlers and we’ve seen him on his back. At 205 he was lacking size
You’re concerned now? And not when he got arrested for drunk driving three weeks out from a title fight while he just had his opponent swapped out ? 😂😂
@@7ItalianStallion He’ll be a lot faster if he go up in weight and he’ll kickbox the hell out of the Light Heavyweight division if he’s big enough.
I think his timing will compensate for his speed along with his setups. Thoughts?
Had Gyno in the past....this is obviously the Juice. We smell what your cooking Chael.
He juices up when he thinks he can lose, look back the Strickland fight he got the titty
Ye he started losing his winning edge being 1-2 in the last 3. He’s recharging for the 3rd title run 😂
Plebs and betas out again speculating making azz of themselves. You suck at life so you hate what's superior to you. Keep shining King.
The weight cut works to DDP advantage
It would be incredibly comical if Izzy gets popped for PEDs when people are already accusing him of having gyno.
Its even more comical out how people either spew that same "everyones on steroids" quote they heard in a tiktok edit in order too give a fighter a pass, but absolutely trash them if someone they dont like pops. Mma fans are about as consistent as wet dog shit
"eat their way into success" .... Roy Nelson is the only answer! God damn legend
How to repeat the same thing 36 times
what im hearing is gyno boob
Great video by Uncle Chael. Coming from someone like him that has cut weight for combat sports his entire life, he's on point as always.🥋👍🏽
Alex told him come to daddy and it's bothered him ever since.
Is Chael saying if you train hard as in mma training or weight lifting training? is he taking the mike mentzer approach
The holding of the new Jocko Hydration Drink in every video now is the best gimmick since the first “leg cross”
No one with any sense believes that Izzy weighs 230. Period. Thays like saying O'Malley is walking around at 200. No. Gott. Dang. Way.
Pete is an OG of the scene down here, so proud the Undisputed watches his channel
He's been spending time on learning golf (sport for retired athletes), and is up to 230lbs. Izzy may be checked out and just showing up for the loot.
He didn't check out. He was broken by the words of Sean Strickland lol He had to mentally recover.
@@jambertin54doubt it
I seem to recall someone by the name of Max Holloway doing just that. You may not have heard of him before
Gynosanya incoming
☠️
My thoughts exactly here comes the boob!
My that’s exactly, here comes the gyno. On second thought though he probably got the surgery.
It seems to be there already in the thumbnail 😂
well he was obviously using peds before cuz he got gyno from it. now he's magically 230? he's on the sauce
He had gyno 3 years ago numbskull he wouldve gotten bigger then
Bro ain't no way he gained 30 lbs in 6 months @VHT56
He’s been bulking for years.. his bulk isn’t even a lean bulk. He’s just a grown man eating
Nate Diaz said everyone is on the sauce
He's like 6'4. I'm 6'1 and 230 ain't even hard. It's hard to stay below 210 and I train regularly, and I am not fat.
Mr. Chael Sonnen What are your thoughts on Hulk Hogan speech?
he's gonna make a video about it now lol good question
Was there something wrong with it?
Izzy and Cahels fists.. both 230 pounds..
Do you think anyone will be able to top chael if it is even humanly possible?
@@Lukedaniel805 Idk man, shamil gaziev is up there with the great chael, might actually pose a threat.

Chael bounces between intelligent human to jock to A.I. Sonnen (many words but without saying anything) Rinse and Repeat. Fascinating to watch.
Chael is reporting news on Izzy's weight and his source is Dan Hooker 🤣🤣
Getting the bulk in early to fight Alex in a retirement match at LHW
No, you’re right. David Goggins is a perfect example. He literally was a big guy but now since he trains very hard & he is Hella fit his frame smaller like Izzy former build.

What did he say?
@@Hardcastle83dunno didnt watch it
I don’t understand anything .. is he saying Izzy is too heavy now and out of shape or is he saying Izzy is on juice?

@@ffshooter9929when?
@@ffshooter9929 he looks like a body a small body builder tbh
@@pazo321 no hate, just an observation
Cool, so if Izzy grabs the belt he can go up and fight Alex. It would be nice to see someone fighting Alex who isn't just shit scared of him.
I feel like there are five in combat sports who legitimately have no fear.
1) Alex
2) Strickland
3) Mike Perry
4) Khabib's Bear
5) Chael Sonnen
Izzy is afraid of him. He only beat Alex once in his entire combat career, and that's because he made Alex keep coming to 185 to fight him. It made it easier to get a KO.
Izzy will absolutely not risk fighting Alex at 205 lol.
@@tapoutrightnowkhabib run outta russia so he definitely not fearless
@@bryanb9907absolutely the case
Dude chael shits on the entire world! He says the darndest things
Chael’s really got me thinking about when Izzy was on Dana White’s Contender Series lol undefeated
I don’t think it will help because it’s the frame that matters. Tyson, at 5’8” tall has a big ass frame so that he could fight in the heavy weight division. While Money at the same height could not go over 147 because his frame was small.
You can gain 15-20 lbs with weight gain supplements and creatine.
Obviously you’re eating as well but we don’t have to jump to anabolics. It’s wild that the fight culture always jumps to anabolics lol.
His dogs are getting bigger, too?
Dog joke is played out
Uncle Chael hitting us hard with the subliminal call outs
Nutritionalist he says 😂😂
max Holloway stayed in shape and put on 20 lbs
Great video, with tons of fantastic points made. Most humans don't understand weight training, training in general or how it works.
TERRANCE OUT
Chael didn’t actually say Izzy was in DWCs did he? Hell yeah
I am a Jiu Jitsu black belt trading for over 15 years. Years back a couple buddies and I traveled and went into a “big gym” with many UFC fighters to check it out. If you follow the sport you would know the gym. After practice, one of the guys asked us what we “took”. I said nothing, what about you? He said “every mother f’er is on something up here…”. Now granted I’m just some dude on the internet but I’m pretty sure they are all on something lol
Man Chael,
Now ESPN just put out a 30 minute piece with Cormier "Reflecting on Conor vs Khabib"...
You're right somethings up😳
I think the 230 reference from Dan was a subtle hint that if Izzy gets his belt fack he wants the LHW belt from Alex
When seasoned successful fighters start changing their behavior or you notice odd differences from the past, that’s usually when their time is up.
Izzy used to walk around between 200-215, staying engaged and active. This fight against DDP will be interesting.
You can build muscle while doing harsh cario but more food is needed and more focus on strength training than normal. It will come on slowly though
yeah like 5-8 years
@@Schyluer you could put on around 1 pounds per month. That's actually a decent increase over the span of a year or a bit less
Chael is sort of right about the weight cutting and trying to lift in the off season and put on size just to cut down to the same weight again. Especially in wrestling when you weigh in closer to the fight than ufc and can’t pull as much water pre fight. But, I don’t think it’s a complete waste. If ur a d1 college athlete and trained rly hard in high school, ur rly only going to put on 5-20 lbs of muscle in all four years of college combined. I also think if u get rly strong in the off season and still lift heavy as you are cutting, your going to get weaker, but not as much weaker as if u didn’t lift at all while cutting.
I just saw Jones post that he is
260 so Izzy at 230 not surprising imo
Frame and muscle tissue wise jones is significantly bigger than Izzy
@@jamesbrian8861 No mate he's not, they are literally the same size.
Jones was 220 most of his career, he went up to 248 with a massive gut at HW.
Yeah and I'm 280...
Look, just because 2 guys say a bunch of absolute nonsense doesn't means it's true at all. Jones talked about bulking for years, and then he came in as a fat f00k vs Gane at 248...
@@MartialArtsNkIzzy isn't the same size as JJ LMAO 😂🤣🤣. When Izzy fought Jan he was bulking up for like 6 months and came in the weigh ins eating pizza and still weigh like 200 pounds lol.
@@Zhimo98 When Izzy fought Jan Izzy didn't bulk 1 damn bit lil bro.
And Jones at LHW wasn't bigger than Jan.
Thank you Chael because I never knew this
Izzy being 230 is quite literally the biggest downfall to his fighting style
"A smart guy like me..." LOL!
A good nutritionalist is a must for top combat sports athletes
No way he weighs 230
He gonna have gyno again lol. oh wait he said it was because of weed 🤣
Yeah I agree. He is very lean and dark-skinned that his particular body can give more of an illusion of size even when the size isn't quite there. He definitely looks bigger there though, probably something closer to 10-15 lbs heavier than his normal weight, like Max Holloway when he finally bulked to lightweight properly for the Gaethje fight, versus Max vs Poirier when Max just was fat, and Izzy vs Yan where Izzy couldn't even hit 205 at all. He looks like a good solid 215 here, maybe closer to 220 tops. Good size for Izzy's frame to get more power and durability without losing too much speed and cardio
Absolutely

@@user-mn9wc5ru5wIzzy was 215 going into UFC 281 against Pereira, so if he put on weight he’s easily probably 220 maybe even a little more right now

Bro, celebs never drink/eat/use whatever it is they sell or push lmao
DDP must really be living rent free in Izzy head, so much that he had doubled down on the juice. Strickland highlighted on a previous occasion Izzy pecs hanging like boobs, Strange ain't it 🤔
i dont see how ddp is in anyones head. Doesnt even have a defence yet and his win was questionable
Boy stop. Lol and idk if yall think Chael knows everything or what…but I gained 20 pounds in a few months and I’m still cut. Izzy was never small, he was slim and really slim guys gain weight different. Ofc he’s going to have to cut, but instead of cutting and rehydrating and only being 195 he might rehydrate now and blow up to 210. I think Chael is leaving that out.
😂😂😂😂 please ya flop,ddp is a joke like his fans,
Isn't DDP the one that ran away from a TITLE SHOT after feeling Izzy's aura? Who's in Who's head?
When I stopped working out at had boobs at 215 pounds. Got out of shape again and now have boobs and 237 lbs. And I'm skinny 6"7
Good or bad? Those skills are still there so it doesn’t matter
There are no skills, so it matters completely.
His skills are his speed and his reflexes, those were his skills his entire career. If he slows down he's basically done, like he ain't no Alex Pereira with elite skills, he's just a freestyler who lacks the fundamentals who is out of his prime.
@@MartialArtsNklowkey true if you think about it
@@MartialArtsNkoh, it wasn’t the 80 kickboxing fights he had that made him a good striker? Thats weird. He had Alex on skates 3 times when they fought? Izzy basically knocked out Alex 3 times.

Alex cut 47 pounds to make 185, that's what got him. And Izzy's 80 kickboxing bouts? LOL.
Yeah Izzy had 79 kickboxing bouts, vs short notice Alex who had 24, Alex KOd him cold.
@@MartialArtsNkA "Freestyler" who lacks the "fundamentals" the one who destroyed Robert Whittaker! K.Oed the F out of Alex (who is a true heavy weight and a nightmare for anyone even Jones) and you saw what he did to Costa....damn! of course they hate him, he destroyed their heros. True Elite fighter.
We can’t miss the fact that he’s had a lot of downtime. Enjoying life and not having to cut for a training camp. Back when he was very active, you barely have any time to put on lean muscle mass when you’re constantly trying to recon your old weight and then trim down for another fight.
He can’t make that Q-tip head any bigger, all this will do is make him easier to club with those Dricus power punches.
Steroid use is crazy in S.A tho
Lol
The only power punches Dricus is familiar with are the ones he catches with his face.
He’s gonna starch DDP dude
@@thefacelessquestion3333 yeah so is pap en vleis.

@@herbert-taylor SMOKED Poatan and took the Belt from a MW HOF-er. Izzy disrespect is just some racist bs.
Izzy couldn't reach 205 because he was still an active 185er just moonlighting as a 205er for that one fight. Izzy has now been out for the longest time in his career with no return date and is probably looking to move up. Not saying that he's not up to something but it's entirely possible that Izzy is natty at 230. Fully watered up, eating hearty, and weight training...absolutely.
as a consistent chael viewer, im still getting used to the cuts 😂😂
Very annoying no?
I think cutting 45lb is good for him. I think the focus and dedication on a large task like that will reignite the fire needed to reclaim the division.
With that said Rob will defeat Izzy, Sean, and DDP in the next 18 months. He will go 4-0 as defending champ retire on top midway through '26. You heard it here first. Place your bets at DraftKings now.
He's still the smaller guy. Finally we got some heavy MW testing izzy, he's never been the same since😂

UFC also posted a video “top 10 upsets” the first second of the video is mcgregor getting choked out by Nate Diaz. They are for sure fighting with Conor now that’s why they put that video up at the same time he is promoting bkfc
1:18 or option C, PEDs lol
 I have to agree 100% there’s no way someone can go to the gym just train natural while consistently weighing 185 and suddenly way 230 pounds by just eating more. There’s no way this guy would be natural if he’s 230 pounds Now if you stop doing cardio stop training and ate a lot and got fat absolutely he could be 230 pounds but he’s not gonna be a fight ready 230. Even with steroids it’s highly doubtful that he could go up 230 pounds while training as an MAA fighter. This late in his career it would be ridiculous to think that he could go up to heavyweight and be competitive when he’s been a middleweight for so long.
What are you talking about guy? MOST of the MW in UFC weigh 210-220 walking around, if Izzy is 6’4” & wanted to be 230, he could easily get there
@MS-mr4zm The OP has been on too many drugs and steroids all his life. His brain is probably incredibly degraded beyond repair. He doesn't even know what he's commenting on. 'MAA fighter'.
Pretty much agreed. The only way to really make significant gains in weight and be able to train, without steroids, is going to take a significant amount of time. Look at Jon Jones. He spent like 3 years, just to manage to hit what 230lb? And he still looked fat as shit compared to what he looked like fighting at 205lb. So he likely had more muscle, but he had to be able to spend significant time getting above 230lb, so that he could still train and be able to lose weight back down to where he ended up weighing in at.
Izzy at DWCS?😂😂😂
Love this show
ok, I think you fixed the glasses bravo! I must say this was a good one, not the EPIC WORKER VS MARK level, but a good one.!

Izzy in Heavyweight Let's GO 😃
after Chael saying that Poatan is not that good, I can’t listen him anymore.
Funny how everybody said Strickland nevwr looked better when his training camp photos for DDP showed up. Now Izzy never looked bigger the now in his training camp for DDP....
When you took off for a long time and came back 50lb heavier and stronger than anyone in the gym. 🤔🤔that's not donuts n chicken
A couple points:
1. This weight came from one anecdote from Hooker so to run with an entire narrative off that alone is Pulitzer Prize journalism (sarcasm)
2. Anyone who has been following Izzy's channel in good faith knows he's been working with a strength and conditioning coach patiently for years now.
3. It doesn't really matter what you believe because, like Chael said, you guys never stop caring.
Our 2 x rugby world cup championship loose head prop say''salads don't win scrums only chocolate cake''😂😂😂😂😂 that is why he is big maintain a balance and win rugby world cups for south Africa
Remember when Izzy used to call out Jon Jones......now silence 😂😂
I'm trying to eat my way into success right now
No! His frame isn't for that weight, sure he can be a threat, but even at light-heavyweight, he had trouble with Jan. Can you imagine Aspinall grabbing a hold of him, god forbid a Brock, Cain or Ngannou? It is almost too light for heavyweight, and he just doesn't move well when he is above 185.
Sacrificing speed for size, or size for speed
45 pounds to lose for izzzy…. Then he has to replenish…. DDP is going to win.
The editing is very chopped.
What happened to the one take
Uncle Chael, down here we have a saying that goes "never let the truth get In the way of a good yarn". And I bring that to you because Dan the hangman loves a good yarn. ....
He juiced to the gills lol I finally agree with Chael
