it's just a youtube video my guy it's not that deep, if you want me to say it in a nicer way then here: Anderson Silva's resume is alright but not a better resume than fighters like volkanovski, aldo, holloway, usman, DC, maybe even islam
I never understood how people discredit Islam for beating volk when he was p4p #1? Is beating a top 5 fighter oat, fw goat, #1 pfp twice not more impressive than beating 2 decent lightweights? Also I don’t understand how people say Islam is boring, they probably have never watched him fight and just think he’s like khabib. Not an Islam rider btw just think he gets too much hate.
ong the dustin fight and the first volk fights were great fights, and people swear islam didn’t easily beat the best lightweight in the world, then fought volk and had the hardest fight of his life lol

Silva was regarded as the best 170 in the world in the early 2000’s when he was outside the utc at one point, goat of 185 and ruled the class for 7 years, and he demolished Forrest with ease when he was 1 fight removed from being the 205 champ and if rankings existed would’ve been the #1 contender, silva being highly accomplished in 3 divisions puts him a top 4. His 185 run alone would too.
I think Ankoliev is misunderstood. I think he has great wrestling, Alexes upright stance makes him susceptible to getting taken down, but Ankoliev is completely ret*rded. Jon Jones didn’t strike with Gane because he knew Gane would smoke him on the feet, Ankoliev had to get to nearly loosing to a TKO to find out that he’s the best wrestler in the top 10.
ankalaev is mainly a striker, he’s usually only uses his wrestling as a last resort, like when he’s down 3 rounds to jan blachowicz and he’s wobbling around due to low kicks, i think magomed tries striking with pereira round 1 and learns the hard way
@@nutsackmma I still believe Ankoliev won round 1 but the point still stands, idk why Ankoliev is mainly a striker when he’s a good wrestler, that’s just bad fight IQ and you saw when he was doing great in the grappling and wrestling exchanges. If Magomed stands with Alex, I see a round 1 KO as well. Ankoliev does tend to drop his lead hand in big moments like a step back, step forward or a stance switch. Alex left hook is there for the KO. Ankolievs also seems a bit lazy with his lead foot placement where it’s easy to hit and for probably the best calf kicker in UFC, that’s a heavy problem.
lol, maybe when it comes to power alone but ilia has a way better chance to knock out holloway than gaethje, gaethje is slow and sloppy and overextends a lot, ilia has tight, crisp, extremely fast fundamental boxing ALONG with insane power, and gaethje only hits harder bc he’s heavier, ilia probably has more pfp power, and if ilia and justin ever fought ilia would destroy him

dricus won rounds 2 3 and 4 because the striking was close and arguably could’ve gone to dricus in those rounds added with the fact that he mixed in the grappling and cut sean open

Bro is the biggest casual ever. Jon has hinted to fighting Tom multiple times, plus who the fuck is a Tom aspinall fan anyways what does Jon get out of fighting him? Tom has 1 or 2 good wins in the ufc when Jon been in title fights for over 10 years. I’m not gonna say jones easily wins but he will win if they fight, and also this has been said about a lot of Jon’s opponents. “Gustafson will be the one to beat jones” “dc is an Olympic wrestler he has to beat Jon” “Reyes will be the one to beat him”. Jones beat them all, and before you start yapping about jones beating Reyes, Jon won that fight I watched it multiple times, how tf do u give that to Reyes I’m convinced it’s a bunch of dc fans or Jon haters saying Reyes won bcuz it was close. Max smokes the little McGregor wannabe, he knocked out the hardest hitter in lightweight he isn’t getting hurt by topuria max literally almost beat prime volk and before u say anything about ilia beating volk it was because volk was rushed back and coming off of a brutal knockout. I’m betting everything on max by whatever he wants
Yeah you’re a casual. Not a super casual but a Jesse on Fire level. I can you’re a McGregor era new fan. Just consume Lucas Tracy and guru and regurgitate it theory.
jones failed multiple takedowns on dominick reyes and alexander gustafsson, he struggles with taller opponents because he can’t use his reach advantage
@@nutsackmma he still got Dominick tho plus he took down Cyril Gane (ik he’s not grappler heavy) but still it’s still impressive to say that he took down DC though DC took down ppl taller than him like Gustaffson. Plus Jones trained with Gordan Ryan and Olympic tier wrestlers just tell me how is Jones struggling? I’m trying to figure this out.
@@305thief8 bc aspinall is bigger and stronger than him, jones at walk around weight is 250 max, tom cuts to make 265, jones and jones couldnt take down reyes until the last 2 rounds when he was gassed out
@@305thief8 and jon is declining himself, his striking against gane looked slow and gane clearly had a speed advantage, luckily for jon tho gane has no power than jon needs to respect and no wrestling either
the jones fans also say: "so you are an ufc judge then?" and "the champ rounds matter more, reyes shouldve been more agressive in the fifth" theyre just bkts that didnt even watch the fight, i even saw a video saying jones won the 2nd round
i don’t understand how people are fans of jon jones, he’s honestly the most unlikable fighter, watching that fight i have no idea how any judge or person would think that dominick didn’t win 1-3 and jones 4 and 5, people don’t understand that the judges can be wrong 😑
It's ironic how you made a video of casual takes but you rank Silva 10th and put Volkanovski above DJ the GOAT, I saw this coming the second you ranked Jon number 1 of all time.
@@nutsackmma The goat debate will never be settled in such a complicated sport, it all stands on opinions, but in mine, I have DJ at #1 as a Jon Jones fan.
tbf people say ddp vs Strickland was a robbery beacuase it just was... r3 wasnt a DDP round and its just ao hard to argue in favour of ddp for that round. even r2 could be seans based on impact but I scored r2 to ddp as the difference wasnt as obvious as it was in r3
@@nutsackmma 3 was not dricus… 2 was more ddp than 3 was. Your misremembering. End r3 sean shut ddps right eye and swelled his forehead, he also went 29-13 on headstrikes… r2 ddp cut sean if I remember right and sean swelled ddps left eye. They also were neck and neck on numbers. Impact wise sean did both more immediate and cumulative damage in r3. He wins r3. R2 sean did more cumulative but ddp arguably did more immediate damage with the cut which puts it in his favour as immediate impact is favoured over cumulative. R4 was ddp for definite. R1 and 5 were clear sean rounds. 2 is a toss up but r3 just isnt really hard to score, it was a sean round and the only way you could score for ddp is if you were watching live… a rewatch makes it clear sean took the round
I don’t think Jon’s ducking tom simply because jones was supposed to fight stipe before Tom was in question maybe if he Dosent fight Tom after he fights stipe
While your video is informative, I am sure am not the only one who actually needed to take a min to get what you are trying to say with these words in " ". Maybe it's just me.

@@GamesWithBrainz 2 people can’t have the same takes? lmfao all i’m saying is yeah i agree with his takes, im listening to 1 person rather than a bunch of people
Good video, but simplifying down gaethje to a hook dude with grunts is very wrong. He became an elite counter striker in the latter half of his career. Max schooled him due to his greater speed which gaethje could not stop. Illia is also a great counterstriker (against Josh emmet which isn’t that hard) but I also think max is faster than Illia. I think Illia Vs max is probably more 65-35 max due to the speed advantage
@@nutsackmma Illia is definitely more skilled than gaethje. I never said he wasn’t. I meant that you discredited Gaethje a lot for him being very skilled. Illia is definitely faster than gaethje, but I still think Max has a significant speed advantage, which can help him box with Illia
@@nutsackmma idk man. When I watch tape of max and Illia fight I see Illia is not as quick as max. This fight is definitely not easy for max but he clearly has a speed advantage. The only man to outspeed max was volk, and Illia could not keep up with volks speed. Illia set up a perfect combination to ko volk
ankalaev beats pereira is such a braindead take lol. even if ankalaev does get pereira to the ground he won't be able to finish him. guy has never won a fight via submission + got submitted last second against paul craig... not to mention his takedown accuracy isnt great at 31% and has never attempted a submisson inside the ufc. pereira will walk through him.
lol why? i think alex beats anyone at heavyweight with a proper bulk besides aspinall and jon, but he won’t fight jon because jon doesn’t wanna fight anyone under the age of 40
alex walks around at 230 bro, and he has the power for heavyweight without a doubt, and he’s way more skilled than like 90% of them, only ones who could beat him are tom and jones
A better Islam take is that he shouldn’t be number 1 p4p, you can argue both jones and pereira went up a weight class and dominated to win the strap, Islam almost lost to a guy a weight class below him “but he beat the number 1 p4p fighter” yeah so did Leon and he did it in his own weight class, dagestani privilege is real
you could argue maybe alex, but islam has beaten charles who was high on the pfp list at the time, and volk twice who was like number 1, alex has beaten jiri and jamahal who were pretty low on the list, and in 0 way should jon jones be above islam on the pfp list
@@nutsackmma i think with p4p rankings guys who move up a weight class and do well should get more consideration than guys who fight fighters at or below their weight class, i dont think islam could move up to 170 and dominate like pereira or jones did
@@henny137he very well could, people for some reason sleep on Islam a lot, Islam’s wins are far better than periera’s wins, he beat Charles, volk twice and Dustin, this is better imo than beating Jan, jiri twice and hill.
@@user-kf3is7bt2v Dustin 2-2 in his last 4 fight, he had one foot out the door talking about retiring and volk is a 145er, Islam damn near kills himself to make 155 and he arguably lost the first fight!! Second fight was on ridiculously short notice for volk, only impressive win for Islam is beating a red hot Charles Olivera imo
@@henny137 jiri is also 2-2 in his last 4 fights, and Alex also nearly kills himself to get to 205, and no he didn’t lose the first volk fight, it was competitive but it was a clear win for islam, also jiri was compromised going into the first Alex fight, literally every single opponent Alex beat at 205 is worse than Charles, volk, and Dustin.
Tbh all the Dj “glaze” is pretty casual. Almost all his wins are unbelievably bad (his cejudo win isn’t even aging well), he lost quite a lot, and most importantly: he was the first champ of a new devision, which allows him to stack title wins (since he didn’t have to fight much for the belt) and there were very few people in it since no one was training as a flyweight.
Saying Aspinall definitely beats Jon is delusional. Its debatable ofc, Tom is young, strong, fast and has good KO power but we should not discredit Jones. You know he has the experience, the fight IQ and the most unorthodox fighting style which catches many by surprise. It's still a though fight but saying Jon meatriders are bad whithout mentioning the Tom NPC's is wild. Let's see if he gets past Blaydes so that the UFC may finally be obligated to make Tom and Jon fight. God bless!
lol i’ve never met a tom npc, tbh i think jones does have a chance at winning but i can think of more advantages that aspinall has going into the fight, im just calling out the people who think the fight wouldn’t be competitive
@@nutsackmma the people saying the fight is not competitive be it from Jon or Tom's POV don't really understand fighting. I've certainly met both Jon meatriders and Tom NPCs, not as much as Khabib garglers but my god it becomes tiring listening to the "ducking because he is scared of Aspinall".
@@-Ice_Cold- leon towered over him, so yeah he's a small ww but we'll see I guess, size is overrated tho especially when you see 145 hooker koing 170 burns
Saying Volk is above Silva all time has to be the most blasphemous take I’ve ever heard. You clearly never watched Anderson in his prime. 16-0 in the UFC with 10 consecutive title defenses while moving up to LW and beating contenders there at the same time. It ain’t just about resume. It’s also Aura and history. Anderson has the best KO and best submission on history under his belt with the KO over Vitor and the submission on Chael. Saying Volk over him is insanity. Volks prime lasted about 2 years. Sure he beat some great fighters but he clearly lost the second fight to Max during his prime run and lots of other wins are overrated as fuck. He beat the corpse of KZ and Darren Elkins(bum) and he beat a washed Mendes and an inactive Brian Ortega who’s not even a former champion or that great to begin with. Let’s keep it real most of Volks praise is because of his third fight with Max. Saying he’s above Silva all time is a straight up disrespectful casual ass take.
those are terrible takes, anderson was beating everyone because most of the people he was fighting were trash. volk beat max clearly 3 times, who is a top 10 fighter ever, beat aldo who is another top 10 fighter ever, beat ortega who has elite jiu-jitsu and has only ever lost to max and volk, beat yair rodriguez who is a great kickboxer, had one of the most dominant title fights of all time against tkz. you're mentioning volks wins being overrated? Anderson's best wins are against dan henderson who got a title shot off of a loss, vitor belfort who is mid as hell, chael sonnen who was beating his ass the entire fight until the submission, and forrest griffin???? not to mention his 11 losses, and the vitor ko is not close to the greatest KO of all time, not even better than chandler vs ferguson lmfao, im not overrating volk you're overrating silva and btw resume definitely matters in the goat debate more than aura, no way you actually said that lmfaooo
@@nutsackmma Volk beat a completely washed up KZ. Yair is a mid fighter at best. Ortega fights like once every ten years. He clearly lost the second fight to Max. I never said Anderson is the goat. I said he’s above Volk. Volk didn’t even have as many title defenses as Jose Aldo. Let alone 10 like Anderson did. Also you say the people Silva fought were trash? Exactly who was trash? Look at all the bums the UFC was feeding Volk early on in his career. 16-0 with 10 title defenses. Enough said. Volks prime was like 2 years and now he’s done. His chin is done. Also look at the way Anderson beat his opponents. People couldn’t even compete with him. The way he played around with Demain Mai and Yushin Okami are good examples.
I wanna have a phone call with you bro. Record it and post it to your channel if you want cause for some reason TH-cam won’t let me reply to your reply about Silva/Volk🤣🤣

Bro is the biggest casual ever. Jon has hinted to fighting Tom multiple times, plus who the fuck is a Tom aspinall fan anyways what does Jon get out of fighting him? Tom has 1 or 2 good wins in the ufc when Jon been in title fights for over 10 years. I’m not gonna say jones easily wins but he will win if they fight, and also this has been said about a lot of Jon’s opponents. “Gustafson will be the one to beat jones” “dc is an Olympic wrestler he has to beat Jon” “Reyes will be the one to beat him”. Jones beat them all, and before you start yapping about jones beating Reyes, Jon won that fight I watched it multiple times, how tf do u give that to Reyes I’m convinced it’s a bunch of dc fans or Jon haters saying Reyes won bcuz it was close.
Max smokes the little McGregor wannabe, he knocked out the hardest hitter in lightweight he isn’t getting hurt by topuria max literally almost beat prime volk and before u say anything about ilia beating volk it was because volk was rushed back and coming off of a brutal knockout. I’m betting everything on max by whatever he wants
he’s not gonna let u hit
Yeah you’re a casual. Not a super casual but a Jesse on Fire level. I can you’re a McGregor era new fan. Just consume Lucas Tracy and guru and regurgitate it theory.
is the mcgregor era considered new? lol
Jones took down DC the Olympic gold medalist wrestler
jones failed multiple takedowns on dominick reyes and alexander gustafsson, he struggles with taller opponents because he can’t use his reach advantage
@@nutsackmma he still got Dominick tho plus he took down Cyril Gane (ik he’s not grappler heavy) but still it’s still impressive to say that he took down DC though DC took down ppl taller than him like Gustaffson.
Plus Jones trained with Gordan Ryan and Olympic tier wrestlers just tell me how is Jones struggling? I’m trying to figure this out.
@@305thief8 bc aspinall is bigger and stronger than him, jones at walk around weight is 250 max, tom cuts to make 265, jones and jones couldnt take down reyes until the last 2 rounds when he was gassed out
@@305thief8 and jon is declining himself, his striking against gane looked slow and gane clearly had a speed advantage, luckily for jon tho gane has no power than jon needs to respect and no wrestling either
Hendo was 46 when he fought Bisping for the belt.
😭😭😭😭
Conor will KO islam for the lightweight title
the jones fans also say: "so you are an ufc judge then?" and "the champ rounds matter more, reyes shouldve been more agressive in the fifth" theyre just bkts that didnt even watch the fight, i even saw a video saying jones won the 2nd round
i don’t understand how people are fans of jon jones, he’s honestly the most unlikable fighter, watching that fight i have no idea how any judge or person would think that dominick didn’t win 1-3 and jones 4 and 5, people don’t understand that the judges can be wrong 😑
fax about everything but aldo is still the fw goat
nah volk and max are both better imo, but i respect ur take if your criteria is title reign
Aldo is comfortably featherweight GOAT. He’s pound-for-pound GOAT.
lmfao no bro not even close
good video, especially the first point but nah reyes didn’t beat jones
😂 29 wins and asspinal with 0 championship wins is the guy to beat bones, im sure hes terrified of a sloppy boxer with ok grappling.
u just exposed yourself for being a casual, and if jones isn’t scared of tom then why doesn’t he fight him?
It's ironic how you made a video of casual takes but you rank Silva 10th and put Volkanovski above DJ the GOAT, I saw this coming the second you ranked Jon number 1 of all time.
I have DJ ahead of volk bro, go watch my goat list lol, and why should silva be higher? his best win is dan henderson, and I actually hate jon jones
@@nutsackmma The goat debate will never be settled in such a complicated sport, it all stands on opinions, but in mine, I have DJ at #1 as a Jon Jones fan.
@@Medgator i disagree, jon’s resume is wayyy better than DJs
All the homies hate Jon jones 🙏
I don't understand how people can like him lmfao
tbf people say ddp vs Strickland was a robbery beacuase it just was... r3 wasnt a DDP round and its just ao hard to argue in favour of ddp for that round. even r2 could be seans based on impact but I scored r2 to ddp as the difference wasnt as obvious as it was in r3
the clear rounds were 1 and 5 strickland and 3 and 4 dricus with 2 being the toss up
@@nutsackmma 3 was not dricus… 2 was more ddp than 3 was. Your misremembering. End r3 sean shut ddps right eye and swelled his forehead, he also went 29-13 on headstrikes… r2 ddp cut sean if I remember right and sean swelled ddps left eye. They also were neck and neck on numbers. Impact wise sean did both more immediate and cumulative damage in r3. He wins r3. R2 sean did more cumulative but ddp arguably did more immediate damage with the cut which puts it in his favour as immediate impact is favoured over cumulative. R4 was ddp for definite. R1 and 5 were clear sean rounds. 2 is a toss up but r3 just isnt really hard to score, it was a sean round and the only way you could score for ddp is if you were watching live… a rewatch makes it clear sean took the round
good content man
thank you 🙏:)
This video is a fan who started watching UFC about 5 years ago clearly 😂
thats literally when most people started watching around the conor era lmfao
I don’t think Jon’s ducking tom simply because jones was supposed to fight stipe before Tom was in question maybe if he Dosent fight Tom after he fights stipe
jones is most definitely gonna fight stipe and retire, the thing i’m mad about is how people say that jones would easily beat aspinall
One is usman is a better striker than Jorge the reason he caught him is because of the threat of the takedown
interesting, do a lot of people say Usman is a better striker than Jorge?
agree on all, esp the top 4 goats lmao its such an NPC list
While your video is informative, I am sure am not the only one who actually needed to take a min to get what you are trying to say with these words in " ". Maybe it's just me.
wym
funny flukas commented on this because all your takes in this are recycled from him
he inspired me to make a channel, if you actually watch his videos he makes great points to backup his arguments, but you just can’t form your own opinions🤷♂️
@@nutsackmma i didnt even say i disagreed with every take and super ironic you say i can't form my own opinions even tho every take in this video is almost exactly the same as what I've heard lucas say in his vids 💀💀
@@GamesWithBrainz 2 people can’t have the same takes? lmfao all i’m saying is yeah i agree with his takes, im listening to 1 person rather than a bunch of people
@@GamesWithBrainz but i’m making a part 2 rn with some more original takes bc you’re right i did steal a bit
Good video, but simplifying down gaethje to a hook dude with grunts is very wrong. He became an elite counter striker in the latter half of his career. Max schooled him due to his greater speed which gaethje could not stop. Illia is also a great counterstriker (against Josh emmet which isn’t that hard) but I also think max is faster than Illia. I think Illia Vs max is probably more 65-35 max due to the speed advantage
you’re right but ilia is still more skilled, and the fight is closer than that ilia is way faster than gaethje
@@nutsackmma Illia is definitely more skilled than gaethje. I never said he wasn’t. I meant that you discredited Gaethje a lot for him being very skilled. Illia is definitely faster than gaethje, but I still think Max has a significant speed advantage, which can help him box with Illia
@@engineer_429 the speed advantage isn’t significant ilia is very fast as well, it’s any man’s fight
@@nutsackmma idk man. When I watch tape of max and Illia fight I see Illia is not as quick as max. This fight is definitely not easy for max but he clearly has a speed advantage. The only man to outspeed max was volk, and Illia could not keep up with volks speed. Illia set up a perfect combination to ko volk
ilia definitely kept up with volks speed
Jon jones has for sure lost this man money
😂he is my least favorite fighter
ankalaev beats pereira is such a braindead take lol. even if ankalaev does get pereira to the ground he won't be able to finish him. guy has never won a fight via submission + got submitted last second against paul craig... not to mention his takedown accuracy isnt great at 31% and has never attempted a submisson inside the ufc. pereira will walk through him.
Alex is NOT gonna fight in heavyweight. Terrible idea too
lol why? i think alex beats anyone at heavyweight with a proper bulk besides aspinall and jon, but he won’t fight jon because jon doesn’t wanna fight anyone under the age of 40
@@nutsackmma his natural weight at 20-30 was always about 200 lbs. Now it's about 230. Other fighters cut down from 260+
there’s a thing called bulking, and a lighter skill advantage
@@nutsackmma yea bro good idea i'll also jump from lightweight to light heavyweight because i'm a decent striker and walk around at 190
alex walks around at 230 bro, and he has the power for heavyweight without a doubt, and he’s way more skilled than like 90% of them, only ones who could beat him are tom and jones
nutsack mma is crazy w name
😂thanks man appreciate it!:)
Lmao it’s always the biggest casual talking about other people not knowing anything
what do you not agree with
Agreeing with all takes👍
preciate it man😁
What does pereira have to do to get to top 5-10?
Weight cutting to 145lbs also affects Islam a lot he’s a big 155er.
Jon jones lost to Dominic rayes
Pereira could be top 10 with a win against magomed, easily top 5 with a win over either aspinall or jones
and islam doesn’t weight cut to 145 when he fights volk volk goes up to 155, and i agree on the reyes take
Alex is already top 10 easily
Here’s a like man anything you need 😃👋
Big crafty vet Hendo wasn’t 38 when he fought bisping in their title fight though
Bro was 46 👴
jesus christ😭😭😭 thank you tho man! :)
5:28 I agree w everything but more power than Gaethje? What?
Yes, Ilia has more power than Gaethje
@@nutsackmma I'm just gonna pretend that I can't read.
@@blackalpha8135 lol lemme hear the reasoning
@@nutsackmma Nah, I'm tired of online argument. Lmao.
@@blackalpha8135 okay😭
A better Islam take is that he shouldn’t be number 1 p4p, you can argue both jones and pereira went up a weight class and dominated to win the strap, Islam almost lost to a guy a weight class below him “but he beat the number 1 p4p fighter” yeah so did Leon and he did it in his own weight class, dagestani privilege is real
you could argue maybe alex, but islam has beaten charles who was high on the pfp list at the time, and volk twice who was like number 1, alex has beaten jiri and jamahal who were pretty low on the list, and in 0 way should jon jones be above islam on the pfp list
@@nutsackmma i think with p4p rankings guys who move up a weight class and do well should get more consideration than guys who fight fighters at or below their weight class, i dont think islam could move up to 170 and dominate like pereira or jones did
@@henny137he very well could, people for some reason sleep on Islam a lot, Islam’s wins are far better than periera’s wins, he beat Charles, volk twice and Dustin, this is better imo than beating Jan, jiri twice and hill.
@@user-kf3is7bt2v Dustin 2-2 in his last 4 fight, he had one foot out the door talking about retiring and volk is a 145er, Islam damn near kills himself to make 155 and he arguably lost the first fight!! Second fight was on ridiculously short notice for volk, only impressive win for Islam is beating a red hot Charles Olivera imo
@@henny137 jiri is also 2-2 in his last 4 fights, and Alex also nearly kills himself to get to 205, and no he didn’t lose the first volk fight, it was competitive but it was a clear win for islam, also jiri was compromised going into the first Alex fight, literally every single opponent Alex beat at 205 is worse than Charles, volk, and Dustin.
nutsackkkkkkkk
😎😎😎
Btw did you get that Jon jones being undefeated from me? I was saying that shit on Twitter for a long ass time and I’ve never seen anyone else say it.
you're a smart man
Tbh all the Dj “glaze” is pretty casual. Almost all his wins are unbelievably bad (his cejudo win isn’t even aging well), he lost quite a lot, and most importantly: he was the first champ of a new devision, which allows him to stack title wins (since he didn’t have to fight much for the belt) and there were very few people in it since no one was training as a flyweight.
@@captcha-bot volk could lowkey be better than DJ
If volk was a flyweight at the time and defended against people in their debut, he would have 20 title defenses
Saying Aspinall definitely beats Jon is delusional. Its debatable ofc, Tom is young, strong, fast and has good KO power but we should not discredit Jones. You know he has the experience, the fight IQ and the most unorthodox fighting style which catches many by surprise. It's still a though fight but saying Jon meatriders are bad whithout mentioning the Tom NPC's is wild. Let's see if he gets past Blaydes so that the UFC may finally be obligated to make Tom and Jon fight. God bless!
lol i’ve never met a tom npc, tbh i think jones does have a chance at winning but i can think of more advantages that aspinall has going into the fight, im just calling out the people who think the fight wouldn’t be competitive
Shut up
@@nutsackmma the people saying the fight is not competitive be it from Jon or Tom's POV don't really understand fighting. I've certainly met both Jon meatriders and Tom NPCs, not as much as Khabib garglers but my god it becomes tiring listening to the "ducking because he is scared of Aspinall".
The funny thing is that Islam did beat former 145 ers - Oliveira and Poirier
islam beats every 155er
Islam is also a former 45er, he actually fought at 145 in sambo
@@zarifinator1327 He's too small for 170 then. RDA right. He's no stronger than these featherweights
@@-Ice_Cold- leon towered over him, so yeah he's a small ww but we'll see I guess, size is overrated tho especially when you see 145 hooker koing 170 burns
Saying Volk is above Silva all time has to be the most blasphemous take I’ve ever heard. You clearly never watched Anderson in his prime. 16-0 in the UFC with 10 consecutive title defenses while moving up to LW and beating contenders there at the same time. It ain’t just about resume. It’s also Aura and history. Anderson has the best KO and best submission on history under his belt with the KO over Vitor and the submission on Chael. Saying Volk over him is insanity. Volks prime lasted about 2 years. Sure he beat some great fighters but he clearly lost the second fight to Max during his prime run and lots of other wins are overrated as fuck. He beat the corpse of KZ and Darren Elkins(bum) and he beat a washed Mendes and an inactive Brian Ortega who’s not even a former champion or that great to begin with. Let’s keep it real most of Volks praise is because of his third fight with Max. Saying he’s above Silva all time is a straight up disrespectful casual ass take.
those are terrible takes, anderson was beating everyone because most of the people he was fighting were trash. volk beat max clearly 3 times, who is a top 10 fighter ever, beat aldo who is another top 10 fighter ever, beat ortega who has elite jiu-jitsu and has only ever lost to max and volk, beat yair rodriguez who is a great kickboxer, had one of the most dominant title fights of all time against tkz. you're mentioning volks wins being overrated? Anderson's best wins are against dan henderson who got a title shot off of a loss, vitor belfort who is mid as hell, chael sonnen who was beating his ass the entire fight until the submission, and forrest griffin???? not to mention his 11 losses, and the vitor ko is not close to the greatest KO of all time, not even better than chandler vs ferguson lmfao, im not overrating volk you're overrating silva and btw resume definitely matters in the goat debate more than aura, no way you actually said that lmfaooo
@@nutsackmma Volk beat a completely washed up KZ. Yair is a mid fighter at best. Ortega fights like once every ten years. He clearly lost the second fight to Max. I never said Anderson is the goat. I said he’s above Volk. Volk didn’t even have as many title defenses as Jose Aldo. Let alone 10 like Anderson did. Also you say the people Silva fought were trash? Exactly who was trash? Look at all the bums the UFC was feeding Volk early on in his career. 16-0 with 10 title defenses. Enough said. Volks prime was like 2 years and now he’s done. His chin is done. Also look at the way Anderson beat his opponents. People couldn’t even compete with him. The way he played around with Demain Mai and Yushin Okami are good examples.
I wanna have a phone call with you bro. Record it and post it to your channel if you want cause for some reason TH-cam won’t let me reply to your reply about Silva/Volk🤣🤣
nah im good lol, sorry youtube wont let u reply tho thats weird
what did you have to say tho?
