17:32 Justin is a LEGEND for picking up his mouthguard while being grappled.
yeah in very inconspicuous fashion to avoid losing the point. That was pretty impressive IMO.
Commentator didn't even notice him pick it up lol
@@wasyl00 yea hehe, he did that scramblr for the point, not to keep his teeth safe 🤣
i swear, it was almost like he started leaning into the punches, he wanted those uppercuts soooo bad. If only Fermino hit a little harder, i mean sheesh, he hit him pretty square soooo many times, justin is a freak. Shame it had to end that way.
@@NOMAD-qp3dd yeah dude is a freak! I love his signature right uppercut when he holds opponent's head with his left.
@@wasyl00 lots of boxers do that, that and the guard manipulation is beautiful
Gaethje is like the little kid that doesn't know which button on the controller is the block button and just keeps smashing random buttons and somehow never loses
i loved 😹
you’ve seen him against tony? you speak like you haven’t
Have you got caught up on watching Gaethe's UFC fights? He lands very well timed shots now, and actually has some of the best knockouts in 155 pound history, probably more in a row than anyone else now. He's put away 4 people in a row, while taking almost no damage.
@Emerson Amaya Its a joke dude. calm down.
@@ButterBallTheOpossum _
Crazy to see how Gaethje's defense progressed from this fight to Tony's. What's most fascinating about him is his dog spirit, this unchangeable force, the essence of who he is.
his last was so unlike him it made me forget how justin really is 😭😭
Indomitable is a great world for him. He knows he's can beat anyone.
He picked up his mouthpiece while he was being mounted and then slipped it in his mouth while he was in the clinch. Multitasking and still had impeccable defense. That is why he can swing like a maniac as a strategy. Love Justin, he's the best.
Dude nobody noticed that shit😭 he even had one last chance before he lost a point.
Impeccable defense?? At this point in his career, Gaethje had the worst defense I've ever seen in the pros.
@@clapdrix72Dude!? He put his mouthpiece back in while defending.
He put it back in his mouth! And right after that his competition started to crumble. But. You have a point. He defends with his face waay too much.
This is like one of those Hollywood western bar fights, where every haymaker lands will full force but nobody ever goes down.
I’ve seen gathje take some of the hardest punches get fazed then shake it off in 5 seconds.
Lawrence Morgan It’s very likely he can take mcgregor. Khabib will be a challenge for him for sure. Khabib doesn’t give af he will grapple and wrestle jg like crazy!
Lawrence Morgan Idk man Khabib hands isn’t bad at all. He knocked down mcgregor and a lot of boxers. Khabib is all round mma. It would be a great fight to see. I love both of them I couldn’t root for one over the other.
Lawrence Morgan hahahah, because he beat bum ass tony? justin is a punching bag, khabib might even TKO him
Lawrence Morgan thats fair :)
The reason his mouthpiece keeps flying out is because he breathes through his mouth as his nose has problems passing air he said that he want someone to break it so UFC can pay for its repair..lol Gaethje is weirdly entertaining
@You heard? he has explained this a few times in interviews though. he said he hasn't been able to breath with his nose since the start of his career.
That explains his cardio issue mouth breathing is a cardio eater
Why not get surgery?
Maybe Khabib will do that.
@@OSTemli it's not breathing from the mouth that ruins cardio, it's due to inhaling too much oxygen and overwhelming your cardiovascular system. If you can't breath with your nose you have to pace your breaths with your mouth, it got me through 4 years of cross country 😂
21:49 is goddamn hilarious. "Fight! Time!"
🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
Firmino is one tough dude. This is the only stoppage loss of his career (Minus 2 subs), but Gaethje must hit ridiculously hard to make him want to pull guard like that
Justin hits like Thor. Look what he did to Tony Ferguson, Barboza, etc.
@Brian Beatty" LIKE A TRUCK "is how he put it I believe. lol
Damn this coronavirus lockdown, binge watching mma, Justin Gaethje is tough as nails.
Its unbelievable to watch, the amount of punishment the kid can take!
I know right?
now you have to dig into that rabbit hole... research some thing and try to stay on the bright side.
the same, digging for every Gaethje fight on yt
Eutace Mullins is the Truth!
I am watching all of Gaethje's fights chronologically starting when he entered the World Series of Fighting. This fight has been my favorite so far. It's really thrilling to watch him fight.
P
My fav is when he broke his opponent's leg. Savage 😆
One of the best fight I have ever seen.... both of them showed such an amazing talent and preparation. Congratulations!
23:38 I love how he used the big screen as a mirror lol
Before every fight, Gaethje's Brain "Here we go again"
🤣
wow that was great
THIS GUY IS GONNA END UP LIKE MOHAMED ALI ... when he reaches 40s!
Not in he's last 2 fights
@@JohnGotti__ right, he couldn't fight his way out of a paper box now a days
The guy's eye is literally swollen shut and these announcers say "too bad it could have been anybody's fight."
Right, Justin was up for sure..
18:10 Watch Dan's face. Gaethje has a crazy style of letting the dude hit him and Blasting shots in between strikes. I wouldn't even call them counter punches because he doesn't bother to slip or parry, he just eats 4-5 shots and then whips a few power shots when you wouldn't be expecting someone to throw. Love his style!!
I know what u mean. I call them his "45 degree angle uppercut"
Its the mixture of hook, and uppercut
clearly, he is absorbing their power and channeling it back in his punches. D I F F E R E N T
Horrible style!! Similar to ferguson absorbs to many shots. That style doesnt last late in a career. Nate diaz also. Those styles are good for tv but not the body
Hugh jaynis...I actually thought that was a real name I'm an idiot
11:28 that sequence is fkn amazing
Justin will take every punch , every leg kick , but hel never let someone take him down , he goes from 0-100 real quick
@@hahnz1 He knows what people want to see. I respect the shit out of him for the show he always puts on.
Tru
i'd love to see him vs Khabib
That sprawl is no joke.
I eat horse meat on fight week no?
YOOOO thats the same doctor who stopped Diaz vs Masvidal lmaooo
New York isnt it
You should work for crime investigation unit
That’s the infamous doctor named “Dr. Stoppage”
BMF Doctor
Justin fights like real man,never back away always pr3ssing forward..He gets wobbeled many times in his fights but somehow always makes a come back..He is a true warrior
I can tell by watching Justin he was a good defensive wrestler textbook stand up in the first .
Gaethje's chin is made of rock, and his fists are bricks
Are you his girlfriend pal!?
CRAP IS WHAT IT WAS!!@
Actually his chin is always tucked. He takes a lot of shots to the forehead which has zero effect
All true but his brain is being turned into jello fight by fight. He has a GREAT chin, but the brain damage adds up.
@@ramsy4205 "shots to the forehead has zero effect"? Tell that to Joanna "The Klingon forehead" Jedrzejczyk , lol
"The doctor is gonna stop it. If you can't see out of one eye you can't see depth and that makes it very hard."
Bisping: "Am i a joke to you?"
just watched GSP vs Bisping before this. At the end of the fight, GSP said that he would get mikes attention with his good eye and come at him from his bad one. still, a hell of a fighter but sight is a pretty big deal no matter how you cut it.
@@kiancarroll5739 Joe Frazier had loads of eye problems in his career too. Haven't read his bio in a long time, but when he went for eye tests he would cover one eye (Let's just say it was the right one) with his right hand and read the chart and when the doctors asked him to switch he'd cover his right eye with his left hand, because his vision was so bad in one eye it was just a blurred line
you do realize gaethje himself is almost blind in one eye?
This is same doctor who stopped nate vs masvidal fight
@@gschaaf713 He's finally got it sorted now and had surgery. But he was fighting with very limited vision for quite a while. Animal.
This fight had everything. A young Justin G throwing speed from every angle. A juice head. A mad scientist. A perfect anime front flip drop kick. Awesome.
Вот это бойцы!!! Вот так должны биться настоящие Мужики!!! Выложились по полной. Вот это бой!! Не то что тяжи, ударить друг друга боятся. Молодцы, настоящие воины!!
Your boy Khabib turned ufc into a crotch sniffing contest
10:40 Jesus that front somersault into a heel kick to the skull was impressive
Called a rolling thunder kick
Rocha House thank you! Never seen anybody else do it other than Gaethje
Also impressive the other guy ate it man. He's lucky it didn't catch him on the chin.
@@theDTP Yeah its definitely rare, very high risk high reward technique.
@@theDTP u need to watch more Pride FC
7:15 Very nice escape it looked smooth
Justin’s old PFL fights are so entertaining to watch , even after watching them on repeat .🥊💣
Its crazy how good he has gotten, fighting so much smarter and taking less damage.
I love the way that, even when he (Justin) could barely swing his arms, his sprawl was still lightning fast; almost an unconscious reaction.
YEARS of wrestling!😊❤🤼♂️
This is debateably one of Gaethje's best matchups of his career. Really wish this could have gone all the way!
He was alrdy beatin his ass
First time watching this fight and I just became a Firmino fan.
He took some heavy punches and kicks and didn't even flinch. He did very good in that second round when he started throwing combinations of 3 plus punches.
Great fight. Two warriors with tremendous heart.
Who's watching this after Justin v Tony?
This is what Justin v Khabib will look like
@@RealECM Now Justin is much better in striking, and absolutely he is good in wrestling\takedown defence. Guess Khabib is in trouble.
Me
i wanted to make this comment
@@RealECM wrong unfor this is what mcjerkoff vs justin will look like-with conor coming up on top. Justin needs to start using his wrestling rather than just bang it out esp with fighters like mcjerkoff
11:37 beautiful roll through to reversal
Que show, que espetáculo de luta... Dois guerreiros...
THAT MOMENT WAS PROBABLY THE HARDEST MOMENT IN HIS CAREER.. YOU FOUGHT GOOD LUIZ.NEVER BACKED DOWN. KEPT PUSHING FORWARD. RESPECT
He has pure wrestling/grappling skills but just wants to stand and bang. Respect highlight.
Valid point.
I was watching him and thinking to myself, here's a guy who's not afraid to be taken down. Which, in turn, allows his reckless offence on his feet.
This makes him great to watch though.
@HenryDavidT Did you just say Dustin is a deer in headlights in the ground?
@HenryDavidT He does use it. He's not afraid to throw, and people are afraid to shoot because of it.
@HenryDavidT dustin isnt a better puncher tho justin lodt cuz he wasnt fightin smart and gassed himself.
@King David stfu
It's amazing to see the changes Gaethje has implemented since this fight. The kid that came out against Tony was everything we needed 2016 Gaethje to evolve into. I think we're gonna be in for some great future bouts.
It ain’t looking too good for him, eating his own “quitter” words.
@@Alexander0888 your replying to a post from 2 years ago Nostradamus. Yes he tapped to Charlie, those of us that compete don't consider tapping and quitting the same.
@@Alexander0888 Tapping isn't really quitting tho 🤷🏽 there is literally no reason not to once it's over no point in losing brain cells
@@crisruiz7646 facts I agree, just don’t call someone else who taps a quitter and he wouldn’t be eating what he said. I agree tho fam 💯
@@Alexander0888 casual
Every Gaethje fight i like the best fight I've ever seen! Pure heart and skill!!
I like pure karoom

I was just thinking the same that guy has a chin and a set of lungs that wont quit. And he just puts the head down and waits to get hit . He times his counters between punches without looking up. He is also a great guy outside of the octagon. One of My favorite fighters Diaz boys are high on my list too .
17:40 when you're so comfortable in a fight, you have time to quickly grab your mouth gaurd mid grapple hahaha.
4 rounds in and this is one of the best fights I've seen
looks like I spoke too soon. 5th round never started lol
@@richyaz9293 4th round never started.
@@Avocado11 :/и умница. э в,
No way man, not even close. Those two deadly ladies who laid it all out-giving every ounce of determination to come out on top!! Now that was a FIGHT!! That other crap is like two kids fighting!!!!
One of the best fights I've seen in a long time. Great back and forth
Who's here after Khabib finished Justin............
czcams.com/video/XXR2G9AFhSc/video.html .mens pound for pound bro
Justin now..khabib yes
Who's watching this after Khabib vs. Gaethje?
Truly one of the best fights I've ever seen.
Amazing effort from both guys
Me too, and everyone out there watching this battle absolutely amazing hearts from both guys
@@malcolmclarke2832 Every fight I’ve seen with “The Highlight” in it, is AWESOME! He has a motor that Never stops. And that kick a5 the end of Rd 1, I’ve seen him do that a few times! Justin and both Diaz Bros are my favorites to watch.
Gaethje picks up his mouth piece while scrambling with the guy 17:31
That wheel kick at the end of round 1 made me want to just cuss at the screen . So much aggression in this fight. Palpable and infectious. Bravo 👏
Tony Ferguson the kind of guy to have a smaller version of himself fight a guy first
*Gaethje's strategy*
Tire out the opponent by absorbing punches with your face
Worked here the other guy had a lot of muscle. His arms got tired. But against Tony this won't work.
@George Hennen he hits alotttt harder than tony tony in trouble
@George Hennen possible. But if he can't KO him early. Tony will just tire him out.
Not anymore
Told ya , I seen this coming wo p.e.ds we back to logic , justin in his mma prime ,toney on his decline ,experience ect only goes so far
Man!!! So many gun shots in this fight !!!!! Amazing fight!!!!
👏👏👏👏👏👏 To both Fighters!!!
Independente de quem venceu....nunca vi ninguém encara assim o gaethje..parabéns Firmino.,
Love Justin’s walk in music! Old Skool
Omg that was the best fight I have ever seen and the saddest ending.
Gaethje vs. Diaz - battle of the who can take more damage.
TheMightymolar Diaz would win hes a better boxer and hes sooooo slick on the ground.
I'm not saying he wouldn't. It's just these two can take more damage than is good for them. I know they're tough, but taking that much punishment will play havoc with their brains long term.
As a fan of Nate, I have to admit I don't see him winning vs someone that relies that heavily on his biggest weakness : leg kicks.
im a fan of both and yeah kids win it
Goddamn I don’t know how the fuck this fight hasn’t been offered!!!??? Pay the guys whatever they want and book the venue. Instant FOTY and possibly all time
16:10 Gaethje: "I can do this all day 😛"
Two warriors head to head. Nothing better.
What a fight!!! Gaethje fighting for his life every time!!!
I can't wait for Gaethje vs Barboza or Gaethje vs Ferguson or Gaethje vs McGregor fuck it, everyone, Dana, make this guy fight everyone
Cary De La Torre barboza would light him up like a Christmas tree on the feet
I still want to see it, and I doubt it'd only be a stand-up fight
Fergusen will rape this dude, with all the respect to Justin, Fergusen's speed and technique will be too much for him
speed ??? since when is tony fast ??
haha tony gets rocked and dropped all the time . he is a sloppy fighter as well
ecdctechmma lol
You're just not gonna see Justin in a bad or boring points fight ! He's a warrior brawler and he turns all his opponents into that to whether they fight that way or not! Salute
Excellent video my dearest friend
Fully watched and stay blessed
i love how justin ends most first rounds with the front flip kick to the face lol this one landed so clean
These guys are are up there as the two toughest SOB’s I have ever seen. Just an amazing match.
I love these fights were they are gassed out and punching the hell out of each other.
@@The_Primary_Axiom yes, gaethje is a gladiator, even when he gets tired he continues to move forward
rated 21 Same with Ferguson. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that guy truly tired it’s crazy.
@@The_Primary_Axiom absolutely. ferguson has about the biggest gas tank i have ever seen a fighter have in any combat. he can go for days. gaethje ain't easy at all tho, guy is a violent mofo and has the power/leg kicks to hurt and even finish tony
What a great fight so missed the remainder of time.
holy shit this is one of the craziest fights ive ever seen. they were so gassed even by round 2 like they just ran a marathon before the fight...by the end justin was just giving luis free shots to open him up for a well-placed haymaker. and by that time luis' shots just had no power behind them
The chins on these guys goddamn
💯
I just came here to see how justin landed on top cuz ive never seen him shoot before.
But im amazed by 10:50
that was beautiful
@@edvonschleck6170 I feel if practiced an insane amount and insane execution it’s probably a move a guy wouldn’t see ever happening. I played ufc 4 and a dude did it with Justin and kod me. Had no idea it was gonna happen.
Gaethje is ballsy, that wheel kick was impressive.
I love this commentary
Dan Miragliotta: Ultimate cocktease.

Fight of the year is OVER!!"
It’s amazing how everyone who fights Justin ends up doing the 1 leg hop

Justin is the real "Bones" of the UFC
@Dee Onreall nah but he will get the 1 melon pop
When Justin Gaethje was undefeated every Gaethje fight was so amazing and really enjoyed to watch. Never get bord watching Justin Gaethje fight
That was a great fight! I feel bad for Luis, good to see sportsmanship from the winner and I hope they have a rematch.
"Somebody make some noise!" has to be the lamest catch phrase I've heard.

After the end of round 1 I got suprised like I thought I'd seen an entire fight
Both of these are tough as nails! Damn... Nice back and forth action but it was clear Gaethje was pulling ahead and was only a matter of time. Good stoppage. Fantastic fight! Would love to watch a rematch with these two!
soooooooooooooooo entertaining ! Justin EVERYTIME delivers entertainment. Great warriors, great fight.

That was a horrible shot Lmaoo
Lmao love that the camera hit his face in the open and he just looked at the guy like really
All of Justin's fights are bangers. ⭐
The uppercut at 18:79 would've dropped practically any other fighter! Damn that Firmino is tough!
Roids dont count so he doesnt count.
I counted at least 7 or 8 punches from each guy that landed dead flush and should have knocked a normal fighter down or out. These guys didn't even react. It's like they are both zombies and can't feel any pain. What tough S.O.B.'s.
18:79 is not a real time.
Right on da head Nico!!!
@@Valchrist1313 lgbt, WHO GIVE A FUCK, MR.PERFEC??? ( OOR MRS.?)
This is one of the craziest fights in mma
One of the best fights I have ever seen ! What a battle ! I’m 👊👊
Enjoy all good fights...
Yea just watched him KO Barboza.. I'm going to all Justin's fights to put this.
I saw the highlights of his Luis P fight and said the something to myself. Anytime I can see Justins fight live, I'm there* Worth every momemt~
HE BRINGS IT EVERY FUCKEN SINGLE TIME!!!!
Now he beat Tony Ferguson for the interim belt
Firmino is more than good enough to compete in the UFC.
Tommy D yeah sure if he passes the drug tests that dude weighs 200-210 easy steroid freak lol
You people see a muscled guy and automatically think steroids. Stfu. Someone people are built like that. U fat moron
@@Fony_turgeson u know nothing. We can see it at more than just the body
He fought in Pride Bushido back in the day. Had some awesome scraps, especially the one against Azeredo. The BTT vs Chute Boxe feud days resulted in some amazing fights.
Buzzing for the fight later!😬
What a bummer they couldn't finish epic fight from both guys 👍👍
I fell down the Gaethje rabbit hole last month sometime and am still finding a few fights of his I missed but I think I just found another one of those holes to go down with his opponent in this fight. Bad ass little Firmino 🌮.
Damn Luiz has muscles on his muscles. Then there's Gaethje, a luke warm mug of milk. If that's how you could call fights it would be too easy. Gaethje is really just a cup of jagged glass.
At some point while watching this video, I realize this is the very first Justin Gaethje fight I ever saw. I remember where I was what I was doing. I was on a treadmill at mountainside fitness in Arizona. Watching him fight was like listening to The Rocky soundtrack. I just kept going faster and longer and harder. This was my first introduction. No wonder I'm such a huge fan!!!! 🥰
RIIGHT ON KAISER! I MUSTA SEEN DIS FIGHT TEN TIMES!!! " CAINT GIT ENOUGH!! O" DAT TUFF STUFF ! LMMFAO!!!!
Braziian guy is a mix of Dos Anjos and Gadelha
Yeah, physically the RDA comparison is apt.
Edzon AllAboard Barboza LOL
So Gaethje loses his mouth piece twice, quickly grabs it and puts it back in his mouth and the judge says " if you lose it again I'll take a point." Why? He didn't interrupt the timing of the fight.
The ref wants them to be safe, also. He's actually helping Gaethje with some tough love. Notice he also told him to close his mouth. It may have saved him from a broken jaw or some lost teeth.
I always see and always watch this Gaethje fight.
Super fight...both are marvelous..got good energy
this guy is definitely a top 10 ufc lightweight hope he will look better than will brooks who is a great warrior too
B00NE datenshi Ates fuck Will Brooks. He's a piece of shit dude. I trained with him when he was an amateur going pro. He lived in my coaches house for 4 years, had no money, no food,. My coach literally let him live in his house for 4 years. He got the skills from my coach and left. Didn't give a single dollar to my coach. Just left us to go to American Top Team. Yeah they're a way better gym than us by a long shot, but he should of at least gave Midwest Training Center some recognition. He literally lived at my coaches house for 4 years no money nothing. And when he got good he left. Shows his true character.
B00NE datenshi Ates Anyways, I wanna see Justin Gaetjhe do well in the UFC. He's one of my favorite fighters that was outside of the UFC! Looking forward to his next contest!
Wahouuuuuuuuu dude if what you say is real damn this guy is the evil himself. Absolutely this guy is complete can strike can grid but im scared that he wont sale fight t
Gaethje just signed wiith the UFC like Marlon and Branch. Damn WSOF looking better than Bellator
Out of every mma organization (including UFC) WSOF looks the most "professional" you know what I mean?
I'm kinda hoping Gegard signs with them
WSOF is over tho
Cary De La Torre agree , i find way better production , u can tell when punches land .
Justin gaethje entrance music?
Great announcers, respect Henzo and his knowledge.
What a fight. Amazing
awesome to watch but man this is a prefect example of how not to defend in mma! both guys could hit each other in the dark!
