I hope they induct him into the hall of fame. What an amazing career. From a highly touted prospect to being down and out, to becoming champion. Nothing but respect for this man
They don't let bums in

@@yendevus1747 get off the computer, NOW
@@phantomcustom4773 dont waste your time with people like that
They definitely will put him in HOF by next year
Glover is the exact opposite of what the Brazilian crowd was. So humble in victory and in defeat too... He's always displayed a tremendous amount of heart and was very passionate about fighting. Thank you for these moments, Glover.
@forwardtothepast8470 - You know, someone can agree with everything that you're saying and still say (or mean to say, even if the writing isn't explicitly nuanced) that there's a pattern of Brazilian fans acting disrespectful and unnecessarily hostile, making them stand out from other countries' fans by a matter of degree and consistency. It wouldn't be hypocritical to make that observation.
@Forward To The Past At least they are not invading other countries as Russia and the USA do.
do you know why the glover lasted so long? he was almost knocked out and the audience never stopped screaming all the time screaming I believe for those who are Portuguese and understood if this fight was somewhere else glover wouldn't do what he did today endure what he endured believe me
@@davidwillian5065 Fuck the audience, that was all Glover.
@@davidwillian5065 don't claim his grit and determination? Why were 80% of the seats empty?
Glover retiring and passing the torch made this one of the most wholesome moments in UFC history I almost cried with my grown self lol
Should have given the title shot for someone else

Man it’s sad to think I’ll never get to see him fight again. He always had me standing in my living room after taking a beating and still finding a way to make something happen in the end.

Proud of Glover! His career was literally one of the best in MMA. He never give up. He came to US as an immigrant, not knowing what to expect, but he had a dream to win in life and that's what he did. Truly champion and will always be. Thanks for putting in the show for us 🥋🥇
He showed us how much of a great punching bag he is
@@yendevus1747 that’s what you choose to see but no matter how many times he got punched or kicked he never gave up and he kept fighting till the last second.
Put 5 guys into the ring that punch Texeira for 5 minutes straight and he still won't get knocked out
This guy is insane👍❤️
Wasn’t the best career was trash
@@airplanemode870 bro anyone man who was champion of his division is qualified as having a good career
I honestly teared up when Glover laid down his gloves… what a warrior! Watching him overcome so much adversity over the years has been very inspirational.
Ahahahahahah black Champ in the building 😂😂😂😂
Family guy ain't funny no more hahahahah.
You stupid n
@Got Yoû MàḎ? Nigga please 😆
I shed a tear when he finally won the belt two years ago after such long journey to finally win
Glover gave us two of the best LHW fights ever back to back and was dangerous throughout both fights. Sad to see him go, but at 43 he can't keep having these barn burner wars
This fight sucked
Sucked or not... trust me we should respect the athletes cuz both u and I can never put anything like these guys even at our youth

I don't think anyone in the division can take those crazy power punches by jamahal for 5 rounds except Glover,especially at 43,this guy is the epitome of toughness,respect!
are you nuts? Jiri Prochazka would take bro out by the 2nd round lol people forget so quickly

Please, he isnt a sledgehammer by any means. GT just happemed to show his age a lil tonight, couldnt keep the pace and it was bound to happen. But to say or even think this #7 ranked guy will hold the title long is silly.
Glover Texeira, a unique legend of the sport hanging up the gloves and passing the torch to the new generation. Thank you for being an inspiration both as a fighter and a person.
Truly one of the good guys. And deserving Champs.
There are stories of him helping American fighters in Brazil.
Absolute legend and warrior! Hope to see him in the HOF someday 🇧🇷👑🙏

Beautiful display of grit and determination from Glover. Rest well Champ you're an inspiration to me!
Inspiration to be a punching bag ?
Respect to Glover Teixeria you're one of the toughest to ever enter the octagon. You're a class act. Superb career! You'll be missed, enjoy your well earned retirement. Thank you for all the memories it was a pleasure watching your fights throughout the years.
He's loser
I cried for his legendary attitude. What a man.. An inspiration to the world
I remember when Glover got knocked out by Rumble back in 2016 and thinking that he would never come back from that.
Holy shit was I wrong! He went on to not only go on a win streak, but to become champ. Damn good fighter and damn good coach. Have a great retirement champ. And keep Alex on the best path possible ❤
Rumble Full of Steroids
Glover Texeira can still fight for the title at 43 years old🔥🔥 WHAT A FIGHTER!!!! Glover is one of the best fighters that UFC has🏆 LEGEND.
Thanks for all the great fights and congrats on a great career. Went out like a gangster in a brutal fight, respect to a legend!
Went out like a clown. Had no gameplan and got destroyed
Get some help man, there is light out there, no need to try and tear people down

I was stressed watching Glover going through another war like that in back to back fights, the MMA community is thankful we got too see you champ! true warrior, hope you enjoy your retirement and get that well deserved rest!
What an ambassador to the sport man! Nothing but respect for the gentle giant ❤️
Was pulling for him all the way to the end. One of the toughest men to ever walk the planet. Heck of a career. A testiment to toughness, persistence and hard work.
The kid was a real standout.
The Brazilian was like Rocky refusing to go down, but the kid went the long haul with superior fighting abilities. Props to the Brazilian for being so tough!
Congrats to the kid for showing up powerfully. 🎉
What a LEGEND man. Tough as nails. Sad thing is that when you look at a guy like Glover Teixeira, you'd think that "aww, Brazilians are so nice and humble" and then you see this event's crowd and go a complete 180 on your opinion.
Mad respect to the legend Glover Teixeira. What a career, what a legacy he leaves behind. He showed the new generation the way, how you can still be at the top of the game well into your 40s if you take care of your body and keep learning. His run at the championship belt will be remembered for so long.
Glover is so classy man, as a real martial artist should be. And great performance at 43 stayed in there not matter what! Hope he enjoys his well deserved retirement. Future Hall of Famer for sure.
The most resilient man to ever grace the octagon!
I unfortunately got into MMA too late to witness most of this mans career but what a fighter and a class act!
I loved that he had Hills' and Morenos back and told people to respect these guys and even wanted to walk out together with Hill.
Nothing but love to you Champ!
Absolute legend became champion at the age of 42 💪🙏
Thank you Glover for such a sick fight tonight and all the shows you put on for us fans. You are a legend a true champion. You’re an inspiration to so many thank you 🙏
Wow, now Glover is retiring. He should be in the Hall of Fame. Thank you Glover for some of the great fights that you have.
Gloved is a true legend. Too bad the Brazilian fans were not present to give him the ovation he deserved for his retirement
why did people leave the event before the actual end? I didn't get that.
He's trash
@@alef3356 Bc they were salty and classless
Fans proved that they dont love their fighters but just love to hate, 90% of people left before Glovers retirement speech.
For real though, thanks for the memories Glover! I still remember watching your ufc debut and not knowing how to feel about your future, but you made a believer out of me! I wish you the best in your next chapter of life! A true inspiration and legend!
Um verdadeiro guerreiro! Que honra te acompanhar, glover. Desfrute de sua aposentadoria ❤️❤️💪🏽
The best way to prove someone wrong in their assessment of who you are is with actions, not words… tonight that crowd didn’t prove Colby wrong when he said what he said, throwing beer at moreno as he leaves, leaving Glover to announce his retirement to essentially an empty arena after he gave everything in that fight… just classless.
The crowd was probably sad he was getting beat up and they didn't wanna see that anymore, most of them don't know resilient Glover is, and the fact that could've won like he did many times before.
Pay respect to who? This bum glover ?
@@yendevus1747 average mma fan

I had to rewatch the replay of this interview because my emotions were so high from the fight. But then it got so high that I cried as soon as he laid those gloves down. Thank you Glover Teixeira for the memories. You truly are a legend and I can't wait for you're induction into the Hall Of Fame because that is undeniable after what we saw Saturday and the past few years.
One of the best 40+ year old fighters to ever do it!!

Much respect to an absolute warrior. You will be missed.
I've only seen this guy fight 3 times but he's already one of my fav fighters EVER. Guy is literally a tank. And the kindest and a class act. A true legend. I wish we could see more of you, but this was the right call. Will be forever a fan of you old man. Good luck with your life.
Thank you Glover! 👏
You are a great athlete and a true inspiration.
Tough fight. You showed great heart and stayed collected in face of adversity.
Pure class by supporting Jamahal and talking to the crowd.
Good luck, legend! 💪
Absolute legend of the sport. Regardless of the outcome you have inspired millions around the world.
“Too tough for my own good”, no truer words have been spoken after tonight
A legend of the sport inside and outside the cage. Take a rest champ you deserve it!
Happy retirement Glover , was a great fight he showed all the heart in the world , it was kinda sad seeing him put down the gloves and not having that rematch with Jiri, but this is the true passing of the torch the division finally moved on, thank you Glover for one of the most exciting careers in UFC and for giving me the greatest fight I have ever seen vs Jiri and for being an inspiration for us youth and showing us to never give up no matter how much time passes.
Glover is a brave warrior. Always going forward and pushing the pace. Brave warrior you inspired so many !! I salute my brother !!! Now you rest and enjoy life, You paid your dues for sure. Thank You for all the memories
Glover is such a fckn legend bro.. I am so glad he's been part of UFC history... mininal as it may have been he's shown the love and dedication it takes in this sport.. I wish him the best for future endeavours cause he deserves all the success, opportunities and respect that comes his way!
Why did you guys cut out the last part when he told the fans to not be a dump?
He is great i don't think we will see someone who can be so tough for every top oppenent in his age (43 yo) he is a legend respect!
Respect Mr. Glover! An absolute living legend. Love the man. They are not made any tougher than this man. He is a man and a legend. God bless and good luck, and thank you!
Glover is such an inspirational person. The strength and heart he showed through his long fighting career should truly be celebrated. I wish him nothing but peace and happiness in his future

I thought he was just simply moving to a different division! So sad. Such a humble and kind hearted man.
God bless you brother thank you for everything!! What a warrior honestly and a gentleman!! Congratulations on a great career brother!
Why not include Glover putting the Brazilian fans in-check? It was a beautiful moment.
fucked up the entire crowd left before glover fight ended. Hope the UFC skips brazil for a few years

Thanks for everything Glover ❤
Glover never lays down. You can never count that guy out. Absolute warrior.
He stayed in it to the end. Respect.
Salute Glover ..
You Earned all the Glory , Honor nd Respect!
So much respect for Glover after that fight. I hate seeing fighters take damage but I would have been so mad if the Dr. stopped this.
Was screaming in my room wanting him to go for a darce choke or arm triangle in the last round lol.
Never really rated Glover as a great fighter but my god he is probably the toughest guy in MMA.
Good way to go out if you ask me. Absolute legend.
that place is dead man, so disrespectful with their own fighters
Such a class fighter , thanks for these day glover.. your spirit and mentality in the octagon...
Thanks.

Respect is so beautiful.
