47 years old and Randy couture makes it through the first round against Lyota machida in his prime. Absolutely legend.
Thats called experience and too much respect given by Machida.
Idk lyoto was a wrestler killer
@@jasonvoorhees2916 he was a bit time that first round. But I would say more because he was setting up the front kick
@@jasonvoorhees2916 except weidman and jones
Couture is my old man inspiration
I'll never forget the words of my one friend, a very casual mma fan, during the Hendricks/Costa fight.
"It looks like a bar room brawler is fighting a Brazilian super hero."
🤣 man that is the most accurate description of those 2 I've ever heard!
Loool Costa actually looks like a Brazilian super hero
Well, that's what happens when a puffy, old welterweight hops in the ring with a lhw cosplaying as a middleweight.
I wish Costa continued to fight like a Brazilian super hero. He fell off bad.
Rhonda Rouseys fight wasn’t a retirement fight… it was a fight that retired her.
Rhonda just had a new division of people who weren't at a ufc level yet. Once the division reached that elite standard Rhonda was revealed to have not been a top contender let alone a champion.
@@dontcare7086 Agree with the first part of your post, but the second isn't true. She had the belt; she was champ. No disrespect 😊
@@SelenaTroyeSL Ronda was a one trick pony who couldn’t fight her way out of a paper bag. She ducked Cyborg for years using weight division as an excuse when her first two fights ever were at Cyborg’s weight class. When she was up against a well rounded fighter who knew how to defend an arm bar she had nothing and it showed. It only took Holm 6 minutes and Nunes 48 seconds to finish her and in both of those fights she looked like a rank amateur.
@@dontcare7086 Zingano and Tate weren't UFC level?
@@MiffetBlue Doesn't change the fact that she won the belt.
I know bisping vs gastleum wasn’t technically a mismatch but, the fact that it was three weeks after the war he had with gsp it still bothers me
And bisping had one eye since the vitor fight
Bisping stepped up late notice right?
@@ogreface8 yea they were gonna cancel the entire card if he didnt take the fight
Bisping is known for that. taking fights that won't have any benefits towards him. he's always taking a late notice fight to save an entire event, probably the reason why we didn't see him on the list. but it's good to see someone mentioning Michael Bisping for this.
@@eetfuk3571 i mean the dude stepped up on like 2 weeks notice to fight for the *championship belt* that is crazy bro, and considering it was a prime Luke Rockhold who had only been finished by Vitor many years ago, and One eyed Bisping snatched his soul in one round
So we just gonna ignore JDS having to fight Cyril Gane for his goodbye fight?
And that gane delivered one of the most blatant back of the head elbows in mma history lol
JDS got done dirty... I mean, he was an elite HW for so long it's hard to put him against mi-level fighters, but still...
That was nothing compared to Hendricks V Costa I legit thought Hendricks was a dead man in there🤣
JDS had nothing to Gane from that elbow to the side of the head.
@@mrkang4080 you must have a weird definition of the word "blatant"
Post-Usada Johnny Hendricks getting destroyed by juiced to the gills Paulo Costa was poetic justice
2 wrongs dont make a right.
Costa never tested positive throughout his career so idk how he was "jucied to the gills"
@@kidgruesome407 but two negatives make a positive
@UCUN_ve6R2Vik2qJQjDwQz8w Costa's sanction was for IV infusions after weight cuts - not steroids.
@@kidgruesome407 But 3 rights, make a left.
It always boggles my mind that Frank and Ken are foster siblings but look so much alike
Yoooo what? This whole time I thought they were blood-related. They look like brothers.
@@largestarmsgreatestcharm8231 me too!
Guido Genome
@@largestarmsgreatestcharm8231 it’s okay go ahead and tell everyone you’re a casual
@@drewsommerville9152 I am a casual because I was a child when Frank Shamrock was in his prime? I was like 11 when Frank fought Nick Diaz, it is not like I could afford PPV. I started watching MMA in 2013. Go ahead and tell me what the old days were like, Drew.
Respectfully, Rashad lost his belt via KO to Machida, he did not drop the belt to Jon Jones.
I was going to say the same thing. Saw your comment and was glad I wasn't remembering incorrectly
Mistakes happen.. but tbh there’s been a few recent instances recently idk I miss the joe rogan sounding guy and the cartoon guy lol always forget their names.
@@Allinone_MMA they do but too frequently on this channel when simple research is only thing needed
shogun dropped the belt to jones right after his double knee surgery
Nah fuck the respect. You have to be called on what you say! Wrong is wrong, especially these MMA specific ones.
The fact that Gina even got in there with cyborg being so juiced is truly a hero move.
As Joe Rogan said best, he saw Wanderlai Silva standing in the cage ... not Cyborg
Rashad Evans lost his belt to Lyoto Machida, then lost a title fight against Jon Jones to try to regain it.
Also Rogan said the Machida Era.
You guys are usually pretty good with that stuff
Thank you I came down to say this
Likewise!
I just like how constructive the comment is, informative and ended with a compliment.
@@fixthat3269 I appreciate you can recognize that. I’m a true fan of the sport. It’s important to me that it’s history is correctly remembered
Y'all making a lot of mistakes lately. Rogan coined the "Machida era" phrase.
Everyone besides tommy toehold fuckin up, it’s annoying when they get stuff wrong
Nonetheless the "Machida era" didn't last very long I'm afraid
@@jaybee11 rogan: and machida gets the finish, JUST LIKE THAT!
Goldie: ladies and gentleman welcome to the machida era
@@pstratos7 uh... those are reversed... the 1st line s legit goldmans catchphrase for a ko...
Some of these scripts aren't written by the speaker. A mistake nonetheless
Rashad did not lose his belt to Jones. He lost it to Machida. Jones took it off Shogun, as a replacement for an injured Rashad.
Its the narrator because they've mentiomed Jones taking the title in the statements that didn't age well video
This narrator isn’t good
for reals he lost to michida then shougun beat michida then Jones came in
@@dariusshannon6069 The narrator doesnt make the list
@@GinkgoPete sometimes they do write the scripts
Y’all are getting really inaccurate with your info. Rogan coined “The Machida Era” and Rashad lost the belt to Machida, not Jones.
So a lot of these entries are literally recycled information you could find in old mma on point videos the machida entry is in like 10 different videos
@@ArmedChicano These entries are recycled information? No they're just the same fights. Being brought up for a different reason with different details brought up.
@@hoagielamp6543 You worded it better than I could have
They have to pretend it was Goldberg was apparently the new religion is kissing Joe Rogan's ass, no matter how stupid of shit he says or ridiculous things he does
I feel for all of the fighters. You either go out on top whilst others call you a coward n wonder what if, or you stick around long enough to become a shadow of your former self.
You either retire as Khabib or retire as BJ
@@LeArmBoss BJ never fought to make money or for legacy. He fought because he loves to fight. BJ was a millionaire before he ever fought, and fought Lyoto Machida at openweight with Lyoto coming in at 225 just because he wanted to do it.
@@LeArmBoss yep khabib went out on top, but he still left a what if because he only fought like 5-6 top guys.
@@UncannyWindowWatcher He only fought 3 opponents who were in the top 5 when they fought. Meanwhile GSP, Silva, Jon, and Aldo all fought over 10. Then you add in their title fights and defenses, and you can’t even make any argument that Khabib could ever be considered the Goat. He isn’t even in the conversation.
@@michaelscylla3188 I never said he was goat I just said he went on top. in my opinion you can't name a goat, how can you when every single weight class has completely different competition that all have different builds,styles. Some have wrestlers that are very dominant some don't.
Makes me feel a bit better knowing leben got one last scrap and a ko victory in bkfc to send him off on a high note
It was Joe Rogan that patented “the Machida Era,” not Goldie.
I mean how could you get that wrong he later famously m talked about how wrong the prediction was
I knew it wasn't going to be tommy narrating when I saw this comment
@@pstratos7 we all make mistakes
@@HighFightIQ this isn't a mistake. This is filthy casual behavior. Ben Roset play him out!
@@HighFightIQ that’s fair it’s just surprising, I’d think probably a couple people work on the video before it’s published
Cain vs Ngannou is the first thing that comes to my mind, pain
even Stipe sets up the blueprint on how to beat that version of Francis Ngannou. still, styles make fights. Cain doesn't fight like Stipe plus, that's Francis Ngannou lmao.
@@eetfuk3571 cant make any mistakes with thay dude
@@saunajoe5973 right. one mistake and you're done. look on Stipe, he buzzed Francis Ngannou and immediately bull rushed him hands down and get clipped by a very short hook and just like that Francis won.
@@eetfuk3571 exactly, one tiny mistake and you are sent to the wrong end of a highlight reel
This is dedicated to the man the myth the legend the warrior himself, Mark Hunt he was do dirty during his career smh!!
No he wasnt lol
@@jamespaul6315 towards the end he was
Makes you wonder if hunt shouldve just let the ufc buy him out
@@superwhiteboy619 no he wasnt. Before brock fight he claimed he didnt care about juicers and hed smash roiders. He only cried when he got rag dolled and embarrassed by a guy who hadnt fought in years
@@jamespaul6315 You mean you believe all the trash talk you hear? Vs the reality of fighting a steroid junky.
That’s a lot of shade thrown at Cain there mma on point... Cain had the skill set not the body anymore, FN hasn’t really showed the skill of a Cain to be honest, he is just huge and hits like a truck.. I mean .. come on. You guys are supposed to know what you’re talking about.
Crazy how Hendricks and costa were both on steroids
I dont think Hendrick was by the time he fought paulo
If Costa was on steroids why didn't he test positive before & after the fight? Just because someone looks better than you doesn't mean they're on steroids
@@theolddarksoul1129 dont mean he isnt do it someway they cant detect yet either, hard to believe he looks like that without being on something
@@michaelquinn8064 he’s been bodybuilding since he was a teenager that’s why he has that physique and also there’s no way he’s juicing because he would’ve got caught a loooooong time ago if that was the case
tbh after years of watching MMA, I stopped accusing shredded fighters using steroids. Most of the time we see them shirtless is inside the octagon, a day after weigh in. When you cut weight your body is drained and all muscle definition show up. They all look normal again after going back to their natural weight. So if I don't have a proof, I'm not gonna say anything about steroids.
I completely forgot how much the promotion was all about Rhonda for that Nunes fight. It's fun to look back on
Lebbon going all out is the only way that man knows how to fight. This man is the living embodiment of come home the victor or on your shield. What a true fighter he is.
@I OFFER YOU THIS I saw that fight. He beat the brakes off of that guy. Smacked him right in the hotdog hole.
Lebbon? WTH? If you respect someone so much get their name right.
MMA is the ultimate "what have you done for me lately?" sport.
We all know Yan and Faber gonna make an appearance
*edit SHOULD HAVE
Sadly, nah
Evans didn't lose his belt to Jones. He lost it to machida
I thought I Was the only one
Yes but Chris The Crippler ended up solidifying and redeeming himself with some core wars in BKFC. He won in style and lost going out on his shield. Dudes a total legend
Shut up
What's ur problem?
Feeding Hendricks to sobber Costa was the destruction of legacy
Hendricks only stopped doing steroids because Costa stole them from him
Carano may be one of the finest women on earth. Her and “in her prime” J-Lo of course.
Not even tate karate hottie are way better looking than her
@@armando6413 tate looks like a foot
J-lo has yet to leave her prime
J lo has been on her prime for last 30 years
@@justaguyonyoutube hell naw
Royce Gracie Matt Hughes was the most mismatched one that I can think of that wasn't on this list. Most mismatched comeback fight was BJ Penn Yair Rodriguez.
Bruh, I've been watching this channel for a while, but that Highlander reference finally put it over the top and earned a sub.
That's one of my favorite film franchises and my all time favorite TV series.
Great vid love to see when "playing with ya food goes wrong" love the channel btw 🙏
If junior dos Santos is not on this list idk what to say...... All I know is the ufc gave him nothing but up and coming fighters to fight just so they could make a name for themselves and then fired him from the company without explanation
"Dumped him on his head"
*cuts away on Mark Kerr landing on his leg*
Give that editor and writer a write up.
10 fighters who won with the Homer Simpson technique (tireing your opponent out by letting them hit you)
Mike Perry.....oh.. you said WIN. My bad.
A Fabio Maldonado highlight then.
Homer he's not gonna get tired, you gotta fight back!
A tactic legimately used by Conor McGregor during his fight with Khabib if Dom Cruz was to be believed.
Maybe take another crack at this script and get all the details right. Rogan said machida era for starters, not Goldberg.
I remember my buddy who's a die hard Hendricks fan actually believed he could beat costa after training at Jackson wink 😂
U do gotta give johnny credit lol an overweight welterweight taking in a jacked light heavyweight who could make heavyweight
mike goldberg didnt coin the term "machida" era, that was joe rogan
Poor Gina, hard to beat a woman with the testosterone levels of a man.
It would be very scary to have to fight Jigsaw, yet Gina fought him.
@@davedingobeast Dude lmao!
I just love that this comes on the heels of the old guard video lmao
This video is gonna be BRUTAL
You guys always deliver on the great content keep it up
Luke, never stop with The LOTR and Mummy clips 💙
Put some respect on Cain Velasquez! He didn't fight someone "beyond his skill set" his body simply had ran his course! Francis didn't even knock Cain out cold! What we got instead was Cain holding on to his knee, you know... the one he had to get surgery on! Prime Cain was a better Miocic & look what Miocic did to Francis in their 1st Fight! & that's with all due respect!
Top 10 least active fighters of all time, But still manage to win when they return after a long time.
Zabit and kahbib finna be on there
Cruz
I can think of three off the top of my head, no particular order:
1. Nate
2. Dom cruz
3. Tj, i know people will say he should have lost and i agree. However he got the nod and looked damn impressive all things considered
GSP for sure
@@superwhiteboy619 TJ will never look impressive. He’ll be suss to his last fight
The graphic of Dolce bouncing away was pretty funny.
Y’all are gonna need to update this list for Nate Diaz…
Straight up cried laughing when they cut to the clip of Petr Yan wearing Fabers headband and hair 😂☠️ Big Oof
Was begining to think I was the only one..
Great list !!
That was a splendid 48 seconds. Great moment in MMA.
Ding ding
Top 10 Influential fighters
That already exists
I thought Bisping vs Kelvin would be on here but solid list
not technically a mismatch except for short day notice. Bisping is known for taking short notice fights.
God I remember watching that couture fight man that was tough to watch😞😞😞
He was maybe my 2nd favorite fighter at the time behind GSP, and I was live in attendance. I felt that crane kick in my neck
Yup watched it live, broke my heart man.
Welcome to the machida era ladies and gentlemen.
Joe Rogan
Welcome to the ivermectin era
Lyoto Machida is a legend. The Machida era did exist and it lasted up to his first title defense.
10:42 Rashad didn't lose his belt against Jones, he lost it against Machida.
I absolutely loved it when the narrator said to put Paulo Costa in the ring with Francis Ngannou, to give him a taste of his own medicine. LOL.
Nate vs Khamzat gon be on the pt 2 of this list
Rogan called it the Machida era, not Goldberg.
Why are there so many random mistakes in this video..
Yea the editing has gone to shit for some reason.
@@onefastr6 right?? before it was the most factual channel since 2017 I learned abu MMA history from them and now I’m just trippin.
From inspiration with Paulo vs Marvin how about a top 10 events changed last minute that turned out to be good fights
Nick Diaz vs B.J. Penn, T.J. vs Renan Barao come to mind was Don Frye vs Takiyama last minute change
One of your Best is this one Baily friend
10/10
you must’ve seen the viral tweet that went around the other day about Paulo & Hendricks 😂😂😂
My memory of koscheck and Hughes is that koscheck landed big shots and followed Hughes to the ground to finish him when Hughes was hurt.
I don't recall any grappling at all other than the short time before the finish
I loved that Mummy spittake
Misspelling Gina Carano's surname when in the next shot you see a lot of posters with her name... Props to the editor! ;)
In most other sports, you see your idols just get a little slower/worse each year and they retire. Here they usually go out by getting their asses kicked which isn’t always easy to watch
Lol that head kick definitely effected Rhonda's intellect
Honorable mention at least for retiring on a series of losses: Tyron Woodly vs Vincente Luque. Granted, looking at how Tyron started his decline after getting the belt, it wasn't a major shock...... but I started seeing mismatches in a lot of his fights after seeing through the highlight reel hype. Colby definitely destroyed him despite the trash talk beforehand.
Tighten up MMA on point. ...blessings
YEAH! i totally want my phone going off every time someone uploads a video to CZcams, for sure! WOOOOO CLICK THAT NOTIFICATION !!!
I remember watching the suga Rashad vs Anthony smith fight live and god it was a clear reminder of how cruel the fight game is
Feel like Bisbing vs Gatselum could've made this list, even Bisbing said he should not have been in there.
Next top 10 idea: top 10 fighters with the most pull-outs
I love this narrator or writer of the script, they’re funny! 😂
a 15 minute long answer to why Khabib retired when he did.
Ole Josh koscheck, I actually know his brother and use to be good friends with his younger brother back in highschool. Koscheck is from waynesburg pa as I am and surprisingly for reasons idk he has nothing to really do with his family here. His mother works at our local Sunoco gas station and at the McDonald's in town witch sucks considering her son was a professional athlete.
Magikarp reference is pure gold.
They been plotting to do my man Stipe even dirtier lol. UFC 324 Stipe vs Rhinoceros for the interim HW strap
THE DRACO MALFOY OF THE 170 DIVISION. Absolutely brilliant 🤣🤣🤣🤣
2 things: you can't be canceled if you don't allow it. And it was Joe Rogan who said "welcome to the Machida era" not Goldberg
Poor Gina had to face cyborg while she was maxed out on the juice
Watching N Gone U collapse C Level Cane was awesome.
I thought Chuck Liddell would be on this list for sure
Shoutout to Pokemon - love it.
goldberg didnt coin the "machida era" phrase rogan did
How did Ronda rousey take the same shots that dropped Cyborg and all the rest?
God I remember when UFC first came out there was no rules whatsoever, you could literally punch somebody in the testicles over and over and over. There was a fight which happened that way too in 90s.
If you're thinking of the same as I am then he really deserved it.
There were still rules.
@@DaveS71 Right like eye gouging or biting lol. Besides that there were no rules.
i like how you misspelled Carano
Rousy's story is a cautionary tale. She is a world class champion grappler. THAT's her strength, that was the secret to her success. Ok, so she got a couple KO's and her hands got better. Good. But then she thought she could out box a world class kickboxer (Holms) and a world class boxer (Nunez). Unsurprising to anyone, (except marks), those were her 2 and only 2 losses.
Had she a better mentality, maybe she could've gone back to basics and come back. But we'll never know now.
And competent coaching.
Crazy that Lyotos knee didn’t shatter one it made contact with Chaels iron skull
Zuck with sunscreen was unexpected. Lol
my god i love this content and its 100% true
I remember reading the comments on the Costa vs Hendricks fight one of them said "dis look like a jock boyfriend beating up his girlfriend's dad" 😂😂 hendricks got pieced up
Cain should have stayed with AAA at that point. He was doing stellar work from the clips I saw, compared to fucking his knee up again and getting starched by Ngannou.
Omg costa vs francis would be amazing!!
Nice terminator quotes thrown in there haha
6:49 it was Joe Rogan with the Machida Era
Strikeforce was so dope
Post PED big rig is the most dramatic drop off in ufc history. Costa has 2 fights left before his lack of dedication retires him. He has the Kevin Lee disease, has the body and skillet but is a head case. A strong mind can compensate for a lack in skill or physical gifts, but the greatest skillet and body cannot compensate for a weak or scattered mind. Every year that passes heightens the need for fight IQ.
Ok that pokemon reference was lit
That Francis spit take 😂😂😂
