Good thing Conor lost against Nate otherwise this guy wouldn't know how to act
Purple Goldie hahaha
That's a fact
+jamie moten lol..what the fuck you doin on these sites bro?! you all good man?
@@damotheman4196 ?
@@JohnLang708 Yep..all good?
He's got the head movement of a young Artem Lobov.
Artem Bless. The GOAT
The most evasive fighter of all time
Only 28 men have dared challenge Lord Artem... And only half have succeeded
The Irish Nail
Artem is the real Goat!
"I hold my head high" Yeah, we all saw that.
hahahahaha best one
Would love to lock you in a room with him and see what you say then.
Kingsley Zissou that heel helped him a bit
nidge18 it’s a fight if you locked in room simple no need to say anything. You don’t have to be a professional fighter to fight anyone.
Kingsley Zissou , that is hilarious, thank you for making my day.
At least he showed up after his loss unlike Garbrandt and Stephens can't find those guys anywhere
True
Free Reign Network yeah, they are pussies
jiahkong96 and he only showed up after the first cause he knew he would get a rematch lmao he’s quiet now that he knows it’s over for a while .
@@michaelsawyer3356 they are fucking pussies. These irish dont run from the media when they take losses. Neither do the diaz bros. Only cowards like cody and jeremy do that
Wasn't a championship fight at the pinnacle of your career , this young fella hit a learning curve and has balls respect to come and talk
Mate you're from Strabane, what's with the fake Dublin accent and copying McGregor's mannerisms. So cringey
He annoyed me at first til I learned he trained with conor since he was 13 8 years rubs off.
Haha its madness isnt it how does he not see that
Strabane accent is like a Northern Irish accent and he’s trying to chat a fucking Dublin one
WorldsGoneCrazy. You are so wrong. It's not cringey.
It is Very very very cringey.
I live outside strabane and half the cunts in it chat fuckall like him
if McGregor had a extra chromosome you get James Gallagher
Duke Fleed hahahah
Duke "ICE COLD" Fleed lol
Down syndrome means a chromosome extra, idiot.
ahaahahhahahaaha
Lmao 😉
Just watch hes gonna be in of every single “ ufc mma instant karma (2018)” video lol
goldenlungs apart from the fact hes not in the ufc
tuan ngo u dummy, that’s why it’s UFC mma, for the casuals that only know UFC, that’s how video titles work
Lol 😅☝️
TheAbominated not really if the video does show instant karma in mma fights lol
Fuck yeah he is 😂
You should have had "The Heartbreak Kid" Ricky Bendejas in for an in-studio interview. He no doubt earned a lot of new fans on Friday night.
James has hundreds of thousands of fans thats why no one cares who ricky is sorry
Dark Magician what a positive message I clicked on this vid thinking it would be pure hate in the comments but, that's not a bad idea.
Dark Magician this was planned before the fight
Ricky will Beat him in the Rematch never forgotten about again!
Yep. I'm Irish but this guy annoys the fuck out of me. Ricky seems like a better personality to interview.
Conor McGregor's less talented little brother
First Name Last Name Tom Holland cant fight worth shit.
Much less talented
He's better than McGregor was at 21 that's for sure
Shane Berry see u on the mats bruh
Shane Berry i know who the f he is, he's fought nothin but bums and he got exposed. He's a Conor wannabe with a fake accent. Strablins dont talk like that. Its like someone from North Carolina talking with a New York accent.
So u can get off James's nutsack, when he gets some quality wins under his belt, then he and u can talk shit.
U saw how he acted during the fighter introductions, he got in Bandejas's face like an immature classless bum and he got dropped with a right and then kicked upside the head and put to sleep the cocky prick.
He deserved what he got and now he has to eat humble pie. Thats what happens when u talk shit and u lose.
He keeps switching his accent lol. One minute he's from Dublin the next he's from Strabane.
Hes a nordy end of.
I cannot tell the difference
@@JamesOsyris Well if you were Irish you would.
What times does this happen? I don’t notice
Probably because he is in both a lot. Happens to many people who split their time between places.
Sounds like something Mcgregor wrote down for him lol
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Haha
@Big Sauce Man accent is completely different
I've heard every thing he's said in this interview out of Conor's mouth in past ones.. hes definitely been studying
Head looks too large for his body
Big head big brain.
Haha, I just said the same 😁
One of the most satisfying KOs of all time!!
One hundred person
Who celebrates a K.O like that though? I bet you're a beta ass bitch.
It's funny. I celebrate everything that is funny, it makes the World a better place
p l
As a former wrestler, who got embarrassed a few times by people who felt like they descended from bears, and got pinned quick. That KO was satisfying to me.😂
Wurd!
Broke him down? Got comfortable? You got KOd in the first 3 minuets
Haha he's young give him time
mike broadwell 3 minutes is a very long time during a fight especially with your adrenaline going off and everything going slowly for you
3 minutes is a long ass time in the cage or ring. I can tell you've never fought before
Joe Berger it all depends on what’s going on and when - if a lot of shots are flying it goes quickly but towards the later rounds when ur fatigued and have to keep going they’re slow af. And yes I haven’t had any pro fights but I’ve sparred with real retired ufc fighters and I believe that’s sufficient.
+Yousef Towfeq who do you train with that is retired cos I smell load of bollox from ya,mate
Say whatever you want but he's got the right mindset. he's tough.
agreed.
I’m saying whatever I want
How did he get over confident during the fight.. if anything he was over confident before the fight..
@@erics8018 so true
@yowza every damn word
Say what you want about the kid at least he doesn’t make excuses like so many other fighters win or learn
He said his opponent got lucky , thats a disrespectful thing to say after you get Stopped in a highlight fashion
what constitutes getting caught? its not like he was putting a multiple round clinic on ricky and then got caught, it was first round and he took every follow up shot
his excuse right after the fight was that he got caught..check his tweets.. LOL
He was always going to get caught pushing out lazy pawing jabs and bringing them back to his hip. One punch didn't change the whole fight because he was so open, that he was always likely to get caught. Conor's an amazing striker, but SBG seems like a bad place to go for grapplers to learn striking fundamentals
Ekan Akpan don't care mate loved seeing him get knocked out and so did the millions of others that have watched it
He got ROBBED
Of his soul
and dignity
lol
Naw he got knock the fuck out!
Of his consciousness
I was happy seeing this kid get beat over the weekend but gained my respect here.. hope to see him bounce back with a win
Hey how about giving us another weekend with this kid getting Knocked out again. We need more good weekends
that says a lot about you. now we wait for your defeat.
Lol he's going be a flash in da bed pan.. kids gonna get humbled quick after this next loss
Fuck at least Conor's an all time great
James "I'm in your highlight reel" Gallagher
This shows Ariel cares more about the TMZ side of MMA rather then the actual fights
He has always been that way. I like Ariel but he typically goes for the sensational angle.
Of course he does! He caters to what people want to see this video has more than 5 times the views of the winners interview. You care about MMA because of the fighters story and the fights in equal parts.
that maturity only came after taking a loss. he never spoke like this before. its good to loose.
Still showed up.
He said his opponent got lucky , thats a disrespectful thing to say after you get Stopped in a highlight fashion
still a joke this guy
So many haters in these comments but god damn this interview shows how likeable this guy is. Great mindset that will get this guy far and be making a lot of money while he's at it.
Everyone knows the youtube comment section is the scum of earth.
Yea i came here kinda hating this kid!but hes not a bad dude .
He disrespected you personally? no.
get over it, this isn't a tv show.
@@Goobtard And why does it bother you so much? He's just hyping up a fight. His opponent got much more recognition for the win because of it, this is how fight sports works. Obviously it's fun to see someone get KO'd after acting like that, but all you softies that get legit offended by it and pour out hate are just sad. This guy, love him or hate him, is far more successful than the haters in the comments will ever be.
@@Goobtard damn right
James "he will be done in one" Gallagher
Proceeds to get knocked out in one round. Sad.
change your name to nate with a full camp I wouldn't have been touched but then conor broke my face
Lol love this interaction
conor mcgregor LOL Nate "face hanging off my skull looking like ground beef" diaz
Nate “ I wun boff uf em “ Diaz
It's not sad it's the nature of fighting competition. Nothing to be ashamed about it happens, it's people who are not fighters that take fighters losses worse than they seem to do, they give it more meaning that there is to it. A loss is a loss a win is a win.
I respect him because he took the L like a man. He gained a fan and that’s me ladies and gentlemen 💯
It’s the only way he can take it. He acted like a cocky prick and didn’t make it out the first round. I doubt he would have acted humble if he won
For a 21 year old his maturity is so next level. I’m really impressed with his attitude. I find him very inspiring. Most fighters would hide themselves after a loss. He is a champion in my eyes 💯%
Luna Lovegood keyboard lowlife 🤣🤣
+Kim Jong 69 The only way? .... Rousey found another way just as an obvious example.
The Notorious hes a little bell end who thinks he,s conor mcgregor, hes a shit fighter😂
This interview was scheduled before he fought guys. Ariels not going to say oh now that you lost i dont want you on my show
You beat Cejudo bro
Mighty Mouse what the fuck are you on about you get booked on helwani ? And what your bound in blood ? To the highest court ?
@@damianjohn5995 ya he was booked Ariel asked him to come in studio on Monday last week. Everyone who comes on the show gets booked. And no its not bound in blood you weirdo
Truth be told Or not what the fuck are you talking about..
@Free Market TV It takes balls to face the music which he did
I’m Irish and even I can’t get myself to like his personality
Shane im irish and im ashamed of this little bell end.. thinks he is conor mcgregor, what a little asshole!
Early stoppage
Far too early
Lol!
The ref should have allowed 10 more punches
Jonathan Roche lol hahaha
Good one.
He's much more likeable here as himself rather than the persona and gimmick he played before the fight
That kick to his face was hilariously satisfying.
Justin Reed You can celebrate in the defeat of others but at the end of the day he is doing something you will never try to do.
Great mentality kid and great approach to fighting! He will become a world champ for sure. Glad this loss happend early in his career.
Pirvu Dan his finished
World champion? Not sure about that.
He's no chance, look who he has fought. He has a padded record. The game has hyped him up to make $$$ out of him. He fought one good fighter and got exposed. Mark my words, he will never be champion.
Machida was a good win. i've knew about James since he was 14, 15. He was beating adults 20 pounds heavier in grappling tournaments when he was really young, he is only 21, he may be cocky but he's talented especially on the floor
Great mentality? He acted like he won before the fight started then got kod. He was already thinking about what kind of celebration dance he was gonna do while he was getting kod. Dude has a shit mentality.
I couldn't give a shit if he lost. He earned my respect with this interview. This is the fight game and all you keyboard warriors can bash him and call him a Conor clone etc, he has balls of steel and I wish him a successful comeback
i don't think this kid knows who he is
Connor cloned himself just incase he doesnt survive the freezing process
LochVids just seems like he wants to imitate the Conor swagger without actually earning the status first, Conor earned his stripes on the uk MMA scene before anyone really knew who he was, and he was already a world champion before he even entered the UFC, I don’t completely dislike the kid like most people do, he has a strong mentality for someone so young, but he appears to have an identity crises, trying to be someone else instead of himself
@@kiely4561 i agree its pretty creepy to be honest like he seems to imitate him so much.... like the whole thing when he said about his injury.... that sounds straight out of conors life..... weird
And btw i was referencing austin powers and mini me if u didnt get it lol
LochVids no I didn’t even think of that lol, I’ll have to go back and watch the films, it’s been a while 😂
& you do hu kiely 456 lol
He tries to talk like McGregor so hard but his natural speaking voice comes out after a few minutes.
He is not irish?
Denise Noles Yes he's Irish , he's on Conor's team SBG
@@stephen_crumley Thanks. I was confused b/c the person posted that he was trying to speak like McGregor. Maybe he or she is talking about the dialect.
@@denisenoles3159. Yes, but they're from different parts of Ireland and they sound nothing alike. Just like how a New Yorker doesn't sound like a Texan. Every other time I've heard James speak, he's doing a Conor impression. It was weird hearing his real voice. He's copied Conor's laugh full time though.
yeah even on bellators embedded style video he laughs like connor and talks about flying his whole team out and shit just like connor did for aldo mendez
"i think i'm cute, i know i'm sexy. Iv'e got the looks, that drive the girls wild"
😂
Hell naw if I was a girl I'd think he's fourteen!
Boytoy
Im just a sexy boy
This guy doesn't seem to be humbled at all.
Alson it’s made him stronger. He clearly feeds off pressure.
Alson your vision of being humbled is having no confidence and no self worth. learn to be more confident .
Anthony Martinez people just hate to see someone with a set of bollox
He wasn’t efficient wid his energy.
He fell to da floor loike tree times. Lol.
Is it just me or is it a big turnoff when people talk about how smart they are or how smart they think they are? People who are smart are just smart and everyone can tell. When you have to convince people that you’re smart?🤔
Wow,thats smart af
Lol what turns u on???
I'm smart I don't tell anybody that I am, but let me tell you something I'm very very smart
Mike DeClue think he meant more as he fights intelligently and strategically, as opposed to reckless and bold, and deviating from being more of a strategic "game plan" fighter is what got him KOed. He admits the got overconfident. I see what youre saying, but I didn't find it pretentious.
kayo asi these big irish balls
he said Im holding my head up high and im only 21 so many times!!!! hahahaha
Jerry Springer who does that remind u of 😉😂
you can't condition that chin, lil boy.
He's like a Great value Conor
Its like a real person came out of a shell. That sweet chin music probably did him good.
This is why i love watching MMA. Anything can happen to anybody wheather it's getting knocked out or submitted. Anyone is dangerous and anything can happen to any fighter.
The MMA Kid Conor or Khabib ?
@@realkingrav2265 khabib.
"I'm humble, I'm probably the most humble person ever. I'm so proud of how humble I am."
James
"Just because I'm Irish I'm a fake Conor "
Gallagher
Its like Mini Conor vs Mini Nate , Scott Coker is a genius rematch will be dope.
ends it all expect conor didnt get knocked out
The perfect example of someone being humbled. Stay humble bro.
Yes James. Laying the blueprint on how to handle defeat. Mindset is rock solid.
Man, this was very impressive...honestly I can barely look at myself in the mirror if I eat fries after my 3rd time trying to start a keto diet
Delusional
and who are you ?
typical "humble in victory and humble in loss" .
I'm impressed with the positive outlook he's got.
Great attitude but he needs to stop copying connor imo...
You need to need to shut the fuk up ya dope
Well done James respect .
Great outlook and mindset James has... looking forward to seeing him come back from this
Great interview and a great mindset. He has visited Mjölnir a few times and I've both grappled and also talked to him a few times and he's not only very skilled but he's also a very likeable guy.
No lie,I thought james was a chump at first but after this interview,Mad respect,im pretty sure he will be back
Actually a decent guy despite what people say
He’s actually not bad. The kicks are his best weapon. He doesn’t know.
It’s good to see this side from him. He tells it how it is. The one thing I picked from the interview is that he admits his mistakes and gave Bandejas full credit for his win, no excuses. Love him or hate him, gotta respect that
James "Did Everything Perfect, Except Win" Gallagher
Byron Fickett 😂😂
He's like the Irish Adrien Broner, only much less talented.
Holden no he’s not because Adrien Broner is a dirty scumbag
Holden damn that’s a great comparison
Adrian Broner can't win a fight. He does.
kid's a genius. you're completely on his side and instantly become a huge fan in the first 30 seconds. cant wait for his next fight.
For James Gallagher is all business, I respect his mind set.
McGregor kid has grown up so fast
So the loser gets the better peice of press... nice
thats the world we live in my friend!
PURGE-SZN Luke > Ariel
Coming out of McGregor's gym gets you some attention.
Interviews are scheduled weeks in advance. Did you not listen to the first exchange in the interview?
He said at the beginning that James was going to be in NYC for other things. If ricky bandejas was in NYC I'm sure they'd have been thrilled to have him in studio. Just a guess.
Damn i live 3 hours away from souix falls south dakota... i never knew . I wouldve loved to see this fight
is the audio quiet for anyone else?
Great mindset. He's focusing on things he can control. Why would you ever hate on anyone or want someone to fail? People who make fun of this guy must have some deep seated anger or pain with their own life
He is a complete moron and behave like a clown, I don't think it´s hard to figure out why he is hated
@@PrismanSP But why hate anything or anyone? It won't make these people truly happy. It's crazy
tonyduffy8 that's the whole comment section. sad world we live in when your fellow man cheers for your defeat.
@@AnthonyMartinez-jg8lo Please stop this bullshit. They literally do this on purpose. They want people to hate them so they can get a large audience....Well they did and he got KTFO with that big audience, HE wanted. Guess what? If you don't want people showing up for your demise then conduct yourself like that. If you're gonna go the other route stop crying when you get KTFO it makes you look weak.
Sounds as if McGregor wrote some things that he label them wrong and this guy pick them up.
this guy figured out how to lose like a champ. He now has to learn how to win like a champ
Not a fan but you gotta respect his optimistic view and determination about things, especially with all these couch fighters who will start trolling and judging him after such a loss.
There can only be one Conor, these wannabes never back up the talk or come close to being as successful.
God it's grotesque listening to his Conor cliches
i respect how he conduct himself here,and is no problem being confident or even cocky for that matter,but was it really necessary to put his face against his opponent just before the fight started,that seemed a bit much,and looked foolish and ignorant in my mind, that was joanna jedrzejczyk behavior and karma
He's 21. A kid. Lots of growing to do both in his attitude and career
Everytime I see James name now the theme song to HBK pops in my head instantly lol
The hype train of the irish hobbit was derailed
Cheeto fingers
Man says: “I’m a smart guy”
Man listening: “ not a smart guy”
I was expecting him to not be very likeable but his honesty about the loss made me respect him alot.
Much props for being your own man!!! I just changed my mine about you, you just earned another fan big ups!!!!!
this interview made me like this guy
Loool he said he wasnt concussed hahahaha
do u know what concussed is?
You and that specific doctor possibly paid by Bellator doesn't apparently (don't go appeal to authority because almost every doctor would disagree w/ him and there's a conflict of interest). Because he was knocked unconscious. That, by definition, is a concussion. It can be a concussion if you aren't ko'ed. The symptoms come from your brain rattling against the skull.
He didnt fall flat to the ground after the kick and those small ground n pound punches werent enough to ko someone, it was more of a self ko from shock of being hurt, happens alot in mma.
TheEvilPenguinGamer Gallagher himself literally says he got knocked the fuck out. Dweeb.
It for sure was a concussion. When he said he didn't have any memory of being kicked and going for a takedown that confirms it's a concussion.
This is coming from someone who has been knocked out kickboxing
Man of his word like he said the fight will be over in round 1
A nice young lad ,been from the town I know him personally, and if people knew this young lad to sit and talk to on a level they wouldn't have the hate , as for his loss it takes a good man to wear a black eye too, just happy to see him getting back n the horse, he lost and he is not making excuses, to me that's a man and humble🇮🇪🇮🇪
Real recognize real props for showin up after an embarrassing loss like that, only nerds will continue to kick him while he down
young gallager hoping to get a rematch like conor diaz # his opponent has that diaz look
Before this interview I hated this kid because I thought he was an actor but after seeing This, this kids genuine and honest. I'm now a fan.
Good luck to him. You could tell he was heartbroken.
What a bunch of losers on here you have to show this guy respect he shows up and is not hidden from it. He will be champion for sure . His mind is levels above everyone else.
His mind was leveled alright.
Well I'm glad he's healthy. I wish James nothing but the best in his young MMA career.💯
When is bellator coming to Dublin anybody know??
Alan O Neill December
To be fair, I didnt care about the fight or james, after this interview. Im going to start paying attention, a well spoken young man. Respect
He makes more money than the online warriors. He should be proud
Clown 🤦🏼♂️
Glad this bum lost
Dang I legit thought Ariel somehow got an interview with Tom Holland & was amazed how many tattoos Spider-Man had!
i used to hear from my parents "if you dont get beaten here at home, you probably gonna learn by the worse way out there"
how many stories of people who were defeated by their overconfidence in MMA
Brought the loser in for a interview. He remembers the side kick to the face. He just don't want to remember.
Nah, if you watch his face after the punch landed on him, you see James was gone, he tried to survive but couldn't put up any resistance.
You commented twice on the same video of someone you dont like...but yea hes the loser hahaha fuckin clown
Ben Livingston shut up ye fuckin idiot
Ben Livington... you are the loser, a hater... i bet you are a low, low achiever that will never amount to zero.. you cant even get offf your chair.... what a failure.
Why the FUCK would a man say he doesnt remember getting hit if he does? What benefit does it serve him? On the contrary, most ppl would lie about that.
so funny everybody around Conor really think they have to act like him it's actually kind of funny
He handled the loss well, even in the cage. He gave us some quality entertainment. I appreciate him.
Good Interview,he should always be true to himself and act like his true self in the future
