I noticed paddy was a lot more grounded this time. No crazy talk, no crazy acting. He showed up, did his thing, and rolled out. Well done Paddy. I like this new Paddy.
yea he had a good evolution. Becoming a Man instead of a Manchild. Good for him.
Agreed
Its called media training
Humble Paddy is so likeable, i think the hype caught up to him badly thankfully he has good people around him that have helped ground him.
Yeah, we all know how it went after his last fight, the guy was losing fans faster than Ian Gerry. This was his only option, seems to me.
Seems like a good kid. He's young, enough of the pressure and hate. He's doing something with his life, more than most will ever do. Well done lad.
Proper Scouser. Working class city and hope he'll go far.
im from USA i love paddy.
Hes matured a lot. Hes taking this seriously now and not acting like an arrogant shit
@@sohelhussain2689
Ahh I see. You were a fan then you dropped him like a hot potato just because he thought he done better than he did, wishing him nothing bad a shit career but now you’re all “he’s matured”? chase your tail you bandwagon jumping clown. You wouldn’t know loyalty if it ran up and booted you in the balls while shouting “I AM LOYALTY!” 🤡😂
@@MrSweetAsbruworking class men will always prevail
Especially northern working class men just a different breed 👍
I think paddy looked more sound technically, and he kinda redeemed himself in my book, the way he handled the win and this press conference.
Good luck paddy, nice to see you humbled, and thats what you needed to improve
I think people's reactions were a bit disproportionate compared to what he ever did. I also think the fight may have been stopped by some referees, so he got close to a finish. He was a bit rude to fans but I think he's learning as he goes.
Agreed, I didn't expect this, to be honest.
relax... he fought the worst fighter in the ufc currently lmfao
I was honestly really off the hype train now, he should've finished Tony and I love Tony like genuinely
It's just weird you were touching him up in the first round and took some minor damage and a broken nose but he was winning most of the round and then he gets on tony the whole second fucking round and he landed very very very MINOR damage in that round tony couldn't get up obviously but he was minimizing damage and paddy was tired ASF doing that and it made no sense, obviously you have to be careful striking with anyone sure but when you KNOW that you won most of the exchanges when you're fresh and you're younger so why gas yourself out in only round two when you can't touch break tonys guard
Then the third round came and it was against very obvious paddy wanted it on the ground but this time it wasn't because he thought he could knock Tony out it was because he was exhausted and invited the damn guard and wouldn't strike because he was so exhausted and I'm not even criticizing the fact that he's exhausted well, I mean I am but more. I'm criticizing why you was a fighter. No that this guy has been on on the end of his sixth loss and you already won the first round and almost finished him and now for no reason at all. You're going to just waste all your energy willingly being on top of him but not being able to get full mount? Like just get up and finish him. You said you're trying to show off your grappling but you're not really showing it off because he was successfully fending off your attacks
I don't know Patty definitely won the fight, but I just think it showed a lack of fight IQ, which is weird because he became a champion of an entire other organization. Regardless of the competition, you still have to have fight IQ and you still have to have a ton of experience to even get to that level on a lower level promotion but like him braiding his hair so that whenever he gets hit his hair doesn't go flopping to stop the judges from misjudging it fight was like the smartest thing he did lmao and that was outside the fight
Officially off the paddy hate train . Couldn’t help to notice how determined he was
i was never on it but he still isnt good enough to justify all the extra hype. he's gonna get hurt bryce style soon. im happy for him tonight and good luck to him though
Me too. He's off probation now. He needed a humbling
Fickle then, yeah..😂
All you "fans" are fickle as fk. I'll bet if he lost you'd be driving that train
And you’ll hop right back on when he loses and goes into denial again. Same mindset as Covington who I’m sure you don’t like yet here you are chewing on the ball sack of paddy lol 🏀
Paddy truly earned a fan in me. The man truly carried himself with a ton of class and showed a lot of respect to a legend until the end of that presser and it brought something out of Paddy I didn’t know he had
Bet you've spent all the time since his last fight slating him though 🤣🤣🐑🐑
You’ll be a fan one day and a hater the next. You’re fickle.
Wake up
Wow this is so interesting
Yeah unfortunately it’s the sheep like yourself that make people seem that way he was always like that you just gotta watch literally one or two of his CZcams vids and you would’ve never had a bad opinion of him in the first place
He was trashing Tony the entire time before the fight😂
He's a good lad, always has been, just got caught up in his own hype and ran silly with it for a while...... kids on the way, settled family man life, I think a few words from those close to him, family and team and we've seen him make first steps to being back on track. Give him a chance people.
Think he stopped taking phone calls from conor washed up nuggets
Yes a very good lad little Brit lad
Yeah, totally agree. He went from someone trying to scrat a lift to the airport on twitter for his first ufc fight with a handful of followers to blowing up with everyone having an opinion on him, inlcuding myself. I have a lot of respect for him now. Lesson for myself to not be so judgemental, but the Gordon shit just wound me up. You can see his energy is really genuione
I see a lot of Colby fans crying 😂😂
😅😅😅😅 uk 🇬🇧 w let’s gooooo
@@Nelkkids Colby let America down, go cry! Those leg kicks are gonna be bothering Colby all thru the holidays, Merry Christmas 😂😂
@@Nelkkids ahahhaahahahahahahhahaahahahahahah colby looked like a bum literally biggest joke ive seen he did nothing looked like a lil scared boi
🇺🇸0 🏴2 😂
@@Nelkkids your boy is washed
Think it’s Time to stop grilling this guy. He’s not a terrible guy, and he looked good tonight granted it was against Tony paddy still looked a lot more sharp n accurate n strong
Watch the fight back, he was punching air or arms 90% of the time, it looked good for shadow boxing, terrible for v an opponent.
He was bad. He won only because Tony isn’t Tony anymore and he was better at grappling and dominated him on the ground. He isn’t going to win the next fight If he fights someone that knows his way around in grappling.
@@OXY187it depends on who he fights next
You and I might be getting against each other, so I don't want to give you more info than you have.
Yeah I've moved on. He need to be outcast for that year though. Now he can come back
The only people who are grilling this guy are they keyboard warriors. The ones who probably never played a sport in their life time.
Dont know why he attracts hate. He is a pure human being. What you see is what you get. Respect to brother Paddy
I've always liked the kid.
youve bene living in a cave if you seriosuly dont undertand why a lot of people didnt like him
The Problem is real personalitys are been hated and fake personalitys are been loved
People don't like him because his mask slipped. Initially comes across genuine, but the blokes full of shit.
There always be haters that’s the way it is, hater niggas marry hater bitches and have hater kids -Kanye West
Paddy needs to pace himself or improve his cardio.
Great result though for Paddy 🇬🇧✌️
Been out injured for a long while. It takes time to get match fit
@@theoutlier9053 plus he was in with the fittest man on the roster
@@theoutlier9053 he looked quite slow & shattered after a round & I'm thinking of when he tackles the top fighters .
His strength on the ground game & bjj is on another level though.
@@JBLancs he said himself he put too much into the first round. The more he fights the more his pace and stamina will improve
Funny how comments online before the fight were all "Tony will show there's levels“ "Tony will elbow Paddy“ and now they're disappointed about Him not finishing Tony🤣
paddy is bad and is never beating a top 15 guy
@@franciscobenitez70stop hating, it’s pathetic. He is a nice kid, give him his credits or just shut up. Rda said I will beat him without a training camp and the dude asks paddy if he is interested in that fight. His respons is: another legend of the game, ofcourse I would like that fight.
He is a humble kid, stop hating on him.
Cause they were coping and joking lol. People just love Tony and wanted him to win no one actually thought Tony was gonna really beat him
@@franciscobenitez70 paddy is high level whether you agree or not, his grappling is good enough to beat islam, arman, gamrot, dariush, chandler, charles, etc...all these guys. How do I know? because he's able to grapple with gilbert burns who is 170 and bjj world champ....Khabib ducked paddy that's why khabib retired
@@GrowingDownUnder no he is not lmaoo couldn’t even finish a 40 year old man
Humility goes a long way... NOW, welcome to the UFC Paddy! 🙌
While he might have trouble with the top ranked guys Paddy is a good fighter and really gets too much hate. He seems like a cool guy that advocates for mental health awareness. Yeah the Jared Gordon fight was a robbery but he broke his foot but still fought til the end.
He’s not good Ferguson was slow and a few punches to being kod and went onto a decision win, while Bobby green who isn’t a black belt submitted Ferguson 😂😂😂😂
That fight wasn't even a robbery. You don't have to be a little baby and try to appease people just speak your mind.
Jared landed almost nothing of substance that fight. Which is why Paddy has cornrows now.
@@Ude1some people are so stupid. Do you know how easy it is to submit somebody that's rocked?
😂
@@Ude1 it was still a dominant win and he is coming back from an injury after being inactive. Tony fans will make any excuse for why he lost or why the other guy isn't that good.
@@sleepedge8257 he’s not good 😂 black belt just for show 😂😂😂
Been a Paddy fan from the start. I'm really happy for him that he's turning the haters and people are seeing him for who is he. An honest, hard worker who also does a lot for mental health causes. Forza Paddy!!!!!
Oh shut up with that “I liked him first” stuff, dork.
Tbf had he been completely honest with himself after the Gordon fight I don't think he would have had as much hate as he got
No you’ve been a Paddy fan since he was promoted by the UFC.
Been a fan since the “start” 😂
How?
@@heihvyegs yapper
What a brilliant interview. Well done Paddy lad.
Paddy proves himself more and more with each fight. Kid is dwn to earth, and I'm hoping big things for him.
How much paddy has matured is impressive
Hope he continues down this path
Back in on Paddy, seems like a good fella living a great life. Respect to him and all the other mad lads that get in the cage man.
If there is someone who hates this guy then must be jealous or just unhappy with their lives. Great fighter and good lad. Congrats on your fight Paddy fantastic performance👏👏👊
It’s good to see that Paddy seems more grounded and focussed on fighting now rather then riding the hype train and trying to be Conor 2.0 like he did for his last fight.
Congratulations paddy, the old man is a legend. You won with no animosity nor low brow crap we Americans seems entertained by. Carry on man, let’s get a few more fights pin this next year.
You're still here, though. If you want real bad entertainment, sit through a performance at North Korea's capital stadium
6:50 & 11:35 Colby
thanks bro lol
I think Paddy has grown up and settled into his new fame. I enjoyed everything about him this time around. Makes me happy because I love what he does for other people and genuinely think he is a good dude.
people say he doesnt have what it takes to be champ. maybe, its tough to get there, but hes definitely a proper fighter and a hell of an entertainer. and still showing respect at the end as well. well done paddy
He has been a champ already though at Cage warriors
Give him 2-3 years, he can be champ
@@jayeff8646 theres a huge skill difference in ufc champion to cagewarriors champion
Dude is humble. Had a long layoff and expecting a kid, he's growing into a man 👍🏼
Not a Paddy fan, bur respect to the "Lad".
Pipe down… complete fake fight ffs
Agree it was a good weekend for paddy he def got a lot of fans back
@@user-bg6ws1de9n
Massive gay.
Well done Paddy a great win bigger tests ahead keep going proud of you .!
Respect paddy you can fight !!
Almost anyone else wouldn’t have been able to take the shots from Paddy in that first round. Impressed me to say the least
Hes becoming well rounded good in the ring good on the mic let him grow
Well done lad. Turned a lose lose into a win. Stayed humble dominated a legend and showed respect to a fan fave take a bow paddy lad.
Lmao after Tony and Colby backed each other up, US lost every fight 😭
Yep 😅 the brits dominate the fight game even heavy weight boxing for a tiny country we do well.
@@danh2310that Mexican power got to Anthony Joshua not too long ago and sunny Edward’s got a big taste of it last night from bam Rodriguez.💪
@awesometacosclan yeah Joshua is a let down to the UK. Not a great chin still he's in amongst the top boxers
None of us in the UK like Joshua... he's a sausage!
@@awesometacosclan and Mexico is a violent hell hole where everyone desperately want to leave.
This last year he has shown mental toughness which he was lacking. That and keeping his chin out was happening a lot less. He has crazy good grappling. If they treated him like O'Malley, he willgo far in the organization.
I am truly disappointed in this sport. I am disgusted. A fan for years, only to find out that fools like Awakenbeerus can rig these matches and sell them to people for money. Sports are truly destroyed, and we need to stop this.
What....
The fuck you talking about bro? Lmao
Bro commenting this on every ufc post
This is a bot.
???
Tony Ferguson has become the Brooklyn Brawler of the UFC 😂
Paddys a good guy and good fighter, full of character... well in lad 👍👍
how do you know if hes a good guy?
@@chrisshergie1030 because he’s charitable and helps people. There’s a start. Now how about you? You just hate in comment sections?
@@nathankirby4612 wait, did you take his comment to mean he actually gives money to charity? i believe he was just trying to make a point, hes just saying if hes already gotta pay it, might as well give it to some poor shmucks. meaning, the poor smucks aint getting sh*t otherwise. if he was a charity giving person, he wouldn't rather give his money to charity because he'd already be giving his money to charity
Paddy got my respect back. I really wanted Tony to win but paddy deserved the win and he had been a class act about it.
He is in a good progress, goodluck young man 🤝
Didn’t start as a Paddy fan but the more I listen to him and watch him fight the more of a fan I’ve become, respect !
It seems he got a lesson in humility, and now he is where he needs to be to truly get to the next level.
Good job Paddy
Great Paddy! Haters got shut.
Fight fans are like gladiator Spectators in the Roman days lol
yeah so fickle
Big up Paddy, seems he's channeled that energy. Love to see it
Paddy looked good as hell technical and powerful in that first round . I know Tony is on the big decline but don’t let this take away from what you saw what you saw is a dude that is taking this shit more serious . He kept his weight closer than he usually does , he did the cornrows to keep hair out of his eyes and like he said helped keep his chin down which was his one glaring weakness . Well done paddy
It’s awesome to see how Paddy has grown and evolved. He is an awesome talent and has the potential to become a champion.
paddy is a journeyman
You just told the world you know FA about MMA.
Paddy will never be a top 10 even 😵💫
Paddy leaves his chin out to dry, how easily Tony tagged him just imagine what Justin would do for example. He'd get absolutely slept.
Potential to become a champion?🤣🤣, there are way to much casuals
I like paddy but he will never be a champion ever .
Talked really well in this one
Humble kid, true future legend.
The way he called out Colby fans is so true. It’s funny his fans stick with him when he talks the most outlandish shit, they stick with him when he insults a man’s dead father he has absolutely no honour. Yet Colby losing is what it takes to make him start losing fans, sad mindset
Esta es la versión de Paddy que todos los fans esperábamos. Bien por él.
the definition of “i do not fucking care ab phenom stuff anymore, give me more fights and give me a shot soon.” his development both in technique and mentality is impressive between these outings
Really impressed with paddy's performance. To be able to go 3 full rounds even though he had clearly been battered by his barber the day before is pure courage
Braids are a good choice to fight in, doesn’t get in the way etc
😂😂 Barber absolutely MAULED the guy lmaooo
Cornrows suit him more than that Ket wig he has 😅
Well he made me a fan again. He looked 100x different than he did his last fight
I like this Paddy. He seems like he has both feet back on the ground. Solid performance.
He still has a lot to grow and learn from but overall can't wait too see him fight again 💪💪💪💪🙏😁
Seems like Paddy has grown a lot over the last year following the criticism he received after Jared Gordon
Paddy speaking facts when he says the mma community is toxic! Bunch of soft lads typing about fighting when they can't fight to save there life!
The year off done alot for his growth and maturity it seems,
He really showed alot more in this fight.
Always liked Paddy from the jump. Great fighter and a wonderful personality. God Bless. 💯✌️
People hating on paddy for winning proves his point which was this fight was a lose-lose for him. He put in a good performance, probably the best on the main card
Emmett was Technically on the main card and what about Shavkat?
Low iq take, he almost gassed out on the 3rd round and threw everything out the window. Didn’t finish someone 11 years older than him.
leon shavkat emmett pantoja all pretty much eased through their opponents but still happy for paddy regardless❤
@patrickbones2909 Emmett Vs Mitchell was literally on the main card not technically
That’s a stretch lmao
He seriously needs to work on his cardio. I can't see him getting past the top 10 if he ends up that tired
Not surprised Paddy won. Paddy has a good chin and with how old Tony is, the difference in athleticism has obvious from the start.
He did the Gerrard 'yeah course' 😂😂
I streamed the event and I feel scammed. Aldana vs Rosa was a great fight
UK got some good fighters right now, such a tiny island compared to the rest. Leon, Aspinal, might even see Paddy get a shot. Think he's in a very competitive division though
Well played Paddy! So happy to see you come back strong, to dominate Tony like that for the majority of the fight all the best going forward. Get talking to Dana about UFC liverpool ✊
Nice work man I've always liked him from the dog poo bag video
for all the hate the kid gets, his name his looks his weight, i really think the fans need to take second to admit that paddy isnt the baddy we thought he was, hes a class act and real af about it, u dont see colby giving respect to grappling of leon, i think tony was a good fight for him, but i do think after the wi its time for him to quit meeting the senior class and throw him in there with some of the hungrier fighters of the division. but paddy earned my attention last night.
Respect for Tony. Paddy is a good fighter
This is what redemption looks like. Paddy put in the work. Lets see him stay on track.
This is a much better feel, keep this up Lad
why can no one ever give paddy his flowers and just give him basic respect guys a good kid
how do you know hes a good kid?
Paddy the legend killer
There's a difference between trash talking or being flat out ignorant and disrespectful.
the main event was so depressing
Only for people as deluded as you lmao.
Paddy is a baddy dude he definitely got my respect and gained another fan here. But Tony like he said is a legend 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Colby is a piece of 💩 much love and respect from Ohio.
I'd love to see BSD vs Paddy on main event Card either in France or UK
Great performance
Great interview..💯💥congrats kid💥👌
Paddy looked ok but he should have finished him to make a statement. Should have kept it on the feet as his hands looked sharp. He's a great kid outside the octagon, doing good things in his community. Good luck to him.
It's Tony Ferguson.. the same dude that took every shot Justin had and didn't go to sleep. Let's see you put the cheetos down and do better? Some of y'all arm chair mma fighters are mad weird 🤡
@beatngu5513 he had the chance to finnish in the first, that was my point. I was complementary about Paddy so what's your beef? MMA Karen's are weird. 🤡🤡
@@beatngu5513 That was the Tony from almost 4 years ago on a 12 fight winstreak. Paddy is kinda the first fighter to take Tony to dec (Olivs and Dariush basically submitted Tony). Paddy looked trash.
@@KD-vq2wtbasically submitted him? They didn’t submit him though did they. By your strange logic paddy basically knocked him unconscious in the first round then?
@@KD-vq2wt What lmao

😂
Hope he keep on improving.
Thats the Paddy we all love
I talked a lot of shit about you but you gave me alot of reasons I regret that now . I’m sorry Paddy , you’re a good dude
He comes off a lot better when his super annoying hanger on friend, meatball isn't around.
@@wurbleMeatball 😂🤣
@@wurble I have to agree , she’s a ball on a chain for his career
I'm glad leon won which is crazy cuz I was wanting colby to win until the dad comment
Colby wasnt wrong on Leon’s dad. Dude was a horrible person
Colby shoulda trained harder 😂 instead of trash talking, y’all are delusional for thinking speaking on dead people is okay
That scissor knee in round 1 was awesome
Most people slaggin him before the fight but now showing the respect paddy deserves
No one “deserves” anything. Because respect is earned and the kids entire demeanour and attitude is different. He’s matured and people are taking to him. That’s life.
Saddest card of all time.
Was a let down
@@Nelkkids emmet knockout was the only good thing
Not really, it was hilarious watching the big mouth Americans get humbled, dominated and broken 🤣🤣
Lets be real, i didnt pay and i never will, but i always get it in hd offshore.. these guys fought but defended this day more than fought... props to all sides, i guess but boring for the fans.. no disrespect to any of the crew at ufc
i support the small fighters, not the robbers (you know who I am referring to if you read this and watch)
Respect to Leon, Long live the King 👑
Thats not leon
@@grajammellor660 … you don’t say 🧐… you did hear him mention him though right?
Pretty sure neither of them posted this either.. I was just saying it as a general statement
great interview and a great win for Paddy
Paddy is tough AF
Paddy is turning into a brother!
Paddy literally stole Colbys Heel Crown tonight.
a new era dawns
Paddy has been humbled and seems to be a good guy not a spoiled brat. Glad to see that transformation and he gained a fan in me.
Never heard someone say "Know what I mean" in an interview so much 😂😂
I Don’t see a belt in his future. Yet I will be tuning in for all Paddy fights in the future. Respect the man.
Good win for Paddy 👍✌️ Too many ufc fans are on the lads back, the lad should be shown respect.
Jokes aside Paddy looked like a straight beast in there. If Paddy looks like a beast against you it's time to retire lol
the technique isn't great but honestly his power is legit
what are you talking about you dont know mma he was literally done gassed out 1 more round and grandpa tony would ko this guy
@@Blibploppull your skirt up
He did not look like a beast lol he looked better but not a beast. But yes Tony should retire.
Average dense MMA fan comment
Bro yall are some sorry people. Paddy did a great job yall are haters for no reason.
Stop it… you’re deluded! That was a fake ass fight just as everyone knew it would be. Tony Ferguson held back ffs
hahaha yerknow dat.
Watched him for years and thought he had matured at CW. But this now is another level and the lad is getting better and better each fight. Learning from each opponent and each camp. A really tough division but the sky is the limit here.
Luke Riley from Cage Warriors through soon, heard it here first ;)
To be able to walk around knowing in the back of your head that you beat up UFC star Tony ferguson is definitely making a statement despite his age ...
His personality improved more than his fight skills. He doesn't stand a chance against the majority (or all of) the top 15-20 fighters but he generates enough interest from people where he should just keep getting booked vs lower level as long as possible.
I’m not too sure. I agree that at the moment he’s not at that level but if he drastically improves his cardio and after a few more fights and more experience, he could be competing at that level. I might just be being an optimistic fan though.
Why wouldnt he stand a chance at a top20 fighter? People still underrate Paddy apparently
@@frozenrealm666 I don't think I'm underestimating him at all. He's only beaten weak UFC competition. He gassed vs Tony. He arguably lost to Gordon. He was getting lit up by Vendramini. Now look at the top 15 names in the 155. It would end very very badly for him
@@fkcoolers2669 he looked way better than the gordon fight tho, he’s clearly improving and if he can improve his cardio and learn to not let his guard down when he’s tired and he can be a legitimate contender.
@fkcoolers2669 he's already top 20 goofy. Multiple fights he could win in top 15.
