Guy 100% has the heart of warrior. Just doesn’t have the skill set for the top 5-7 of the lightweight division. To be fair it’s a murderers row in that division.
Yeah I was happy to see Gaethje perform well but super sad to see Tony lose and lost the chance at the infamous Khabib/Title fight. All due to covid. I like both of them so it was one of those fights where no matter who wins still mixed feelings.
its not just that, it was the accumulated damage he took across his career! he was literally known for getting hit and coming back all the time, but it catches up with you. and he was still never dropped or out cold. crazy. best chin.
If there’s any fight that made me think Tony is not human it’s this one like hearing all those heavy shots that he took and not even get knocked down like that is just bananas
@@Wesley.Deuren For real man. There at the end where he was about to do the robot dance and it was like his brain just wouldn't/couldn't compute it. So he tried shaking it off..when I watched this live I was worried for Tony at the end. That has to take years off ya. Great performance from Gaethje
It’s sad but it really is bound to happen. Any time after a fighter reaches 35, they will see that decline in the next 5 years as the next generation reaches their peak, and they will be dethroned.
@@downfromthereeefters it’s so true, any other 36 year old fighter would have caved in by a couple rounds but Tony’s such a savage he nearly made it to the distance. Still pains me to watch him get beat up like that it to this day lol.
@@RowdyKage i dont know man the way tony fights and trains really isnt made for a long career its crazy to think he lasted this long before his body gave out.
The lack of crowd really let you understand just how hard these punches and kicks were landing on these guys. What a great fight but poor Tony was never the same after absorbing all those punches.
The fact there was no crowd meant we heard every Gaethje punch crash into Tony's head and the tennis grunts by Justin all added to making this a brutal fight to watch and to there being something brutally primal about the whole thing.
I watched UFC casually for about 3 years until this fight when COVID took over… now I watch every event. Thank you for this video, I loved this fight!!
Blame his shitty corner. Got the shit beat out of him for 3 rounds and then instead of them recommending clinching or a single/double leg. They said do an iminari roll
@@jaisalarna9829 “looking beautiful tony” in between rounds too after one of his worsts like yo wtf give him some constructive advice he was just getting beat up ffs lmao
@@jaisalarna9829 eddie Bravo isn't an mma coach, he is just a jiu Jitsu coach.. what advice would he give him other than Imanari ? Tony didn't spar in 5 years, neither has offensive wrestling to take gathje down to dominate gathje via jiu jitsu.. it's his over confidence & not working on fundamentals ultimately led to his demise.. he was on a 12 win streak bcz of his cardio, toughness mainly but at top level u need more than that..
@@khamaruusmagomedov3200 LMAO Darush is an absolute can that got put to sleep by alex hernandez. He has wins over nobody. Ferguson will take everything Darush throws at him.
Man ... Gaethje really took Ferguson to Hades and finished him off. Going into to the Khabib fight, he seemed damned near unconquerable. And then the Khabib fight happens, and you're left thinking, what the hell did I just see.
@@booqrdoit9138 fr bro. Really wanted Justin to win that one, but he let Khabib hunt him down and put him on his heels. Im sure it would have had a similar outcome, but I wonder what would have happened if Justin went offensive with his wrestling.
@@thepancakemann I think sight doesnt do khabib justice. Until you feel what his pressure and weight manipulation feels like, we can't know just how good he is. But never lost a round never lost a fight. Look at the face of his opponents when he has them downed. Deer in headlights. I also think Trevor Whitman is too good not to give Justin a great game plan. Khabib is insane.
@@thepancakemann rda went offensive and khabib reversed it. Plus gaethje has non existent bjj so he probably wouldn't want to get caught in a sub from a takedown
@@usmanbeatsgsp He was really emotional after that bout. Imagine fighting for the actual title and then the champ pulls out so you have to fight for the placeholder belt. He broke his 12 fight win streak on a short notice fight. Cut him some slack. Meanwhile, Chandler wins one fight and he walks into a Title shot.
@@usmanbeatsgsp Mike Chandler had a great quote about this: When someone loses a fight via KO, getting in their space right after is one of the most "disrespectful" things you can do. "Let the man take his loss" twitter.com/ASAP_Pipa/status/1353431851126329344
18:40 this is what I love about Justin Gaethje, he's looking at Tony and he visibly doesn't want to hurt him anymore and after a long hesitation he goes for a low power jab, if that was anybody else they'd jump on Tony trying to finish him.
His brain took so much damage that day, poor guy. I hope he retires and find another way to make money like entertainment etc.. he'd be a good youtuber and already has a huge fanbase
I think there’s a certain special something about having almost silent fights, because you can really hear just how damn heavy those blows are. Gaethje tore Tony up…congrats to Tony for staying on his feet.
Huge gaethje fan from the start. But watching Tony get destroyed like that was making me sad for him. Wish gaethje just knocked him out early so he didnt have to take that brutal punishment. We've never seen Tony wobble and shake his head like that ever. It was a visual surrender without surrendering
This fight set the standard for entertainment value. With the covid no audience shouting in the seats making noise, we could hear every devastating blow given & received. It curdled my blood with some of those shots El Cucuy took, & still kept coming at Justin. Un-be-LIEVABLE!!!
That schooling beating, punishment, in the fight at the end, is unique. It's something else. And the final moments and right after - are spooky, but compelling.
i looked at this many times and i can see why some called it a early stoppage even tony, but when you look at the enfeebled way tonys feet and legs were holding him up, the unanswered sledge hammer blows to the face he was receiving and how those blows staggered him around almost lifelessly coupled with the very weak way he retreated...if justin wanted to he could of charged tony at those times and clubbed him unconcious, but justin knew tony was beaten and took his time lettting the ref realize this
Tony taking those hits and shaking his head like that triggered some memories of a sad movie scene where you’re favorite cartoon dog gets hurt. Ugh. My heart.
@@markusgeisle7536 I understand it’s a fight and props to justin for getting it done in a impressive fashion but tony was hurt and didn’t want to continue, the ref is there to safe the fighter’s life and he should’ve stepped in when it was necessary but justin is a good guy for not continuing tho
yeah Justin always hesitates to do unnecessary damage, specially when the referee is late. he also gets pissed at the referee when they do really bad and late stoppages.
Great video like the rest of the “Best moments” series, but I can’t help but feel the best part was left out when Eddie Bravo was talking about beating his son in chess while Tony was warming up, that shit had me giggling for a long time.
It doesn't matter how tough you are... prime example of your brain telling your feet to get away from whatevers hurting you... Tony was possessed at the end, he wanted to stay, but his brain said run run run ...
Tony the type of guy to let Wanderlei Silva get close....

And ankle pick him
😂😂😂😂
Dude, well done! lmao
Quite possibly the best Tony... the type of guy joke I’ve seen yet
How tony managed to stay standing all that time is insane

Man that headshake from Tony at the end legit fucked me up. Masterpiece of a fight, but heartbreaking indeed.
i was gonna say the same.hard to watch tony get hit like that.
Tony took so much more damage than people realize man
this was enough damage to knock out 5 different LWs
those hits sounded like gunshots
its not just that, it was the accumulated damage he took across his career! he was literally known for getting hit and coming back all the time, but it catches up with you. and he was still never dropped or out cold. crazy. best chin.

Still hurts to watch this fight. This was the decline of Tony Ferguson. Justin Gaethje really did take his soul...
