Luke being scared of alcohol after feeling those margaritas has me rolling.
(Yes I know Luke isn't scared of alcohol its a joke)
@@andrewgosh6987 The only one that would not take it as a joke is Luke
As an alcoholic, I would love to get to this point where he just doesn't enjoy it anymore. Lol
Belligerent Luke is still Undefeated and Unapologetic.
one shot of whiskey and BC is calling khabib “fedor”
are they in the UK already? could be jet lag 😂
@@bigmig67 that and we just finished a very “Fedor” heavy week so his name is fresh in the vocabulary
He’s been working VERY hard at distinctly pronouncing FEDOR and BADER with mixed results
Like 3 times :))
@@bigmig67 nah they said at the beginning that they recorded this before the Teixeira vs Hill fight
As much as I like your show overall, PreGame Preview is truly your consistently best work with Chuck. Love it.
"this one's for cro-cop"
why is BC like this 😂
I know, I was like "wtf did Cro Cop die"??
Listening to this while waiting to attend the UK podcast live
Have fun bro!
"I'm feelin' those margaritas."
@@nathanmiller9918 I was feeling them at 14:00
Lol me too
Epic time right?!
On the Train home from seeing MK live in London. So. Freaking. Good! Cheers boys!
It was the best ever!!!
Super jealous. Anything super notable go down? What kind of format was it?
@@donovandick7163 facing the audience, I mean it was from the outside just another show but BEING there was next level. I marketed live events on London’s equivalent to broadway and honestly this was up there. Then they hung out at the end which you obviously don’t get online which makes it notable. Luke texted Eric nicksick to see his hog lol thanks to the wheel of death. That was very funny.
Chuck absolutely CRUSHING it with that Spotify hoodie.
“This one’s for cro crop” f**k that made me laugh for some reason haha
You know you got a hit when the man in the hat is in it 🔥
Chuck putting the image out there of BC referencing random fights when watching movies as he does the other way around has killed me 😂
Comedy gold😂
6:22 "Just a taste, Fuckface" has to be a t-shirt
Ha! My first thought as soon as I heard l that as well 😂✌🏻
I love pregame previews! Way to get my wife and I all hyped up! Also Chuck is one of the best guys in this business. I absolutely love everything he does with the show!
This is my favourite format of MK
Thanks for doing the job the UFC doesn't want to do right now and getting my hyped for this fight. First time ive felt the big fight buzz for UFC 284.
This shit is so tired and unoriginal. Definitely the flavor of the week for people fishing for likes. You dont need dana white to give you a reach around to get excited for ufc 284. Its a top heavy card and the ufc are promoting it like any other ppv get over it.
@@AL_145 agreed but some things are still enjoyable and part of the routine. It adds to the overall experience rather than me just sitting with my own thoughts. Do u know when the ufc 284 press conference is ?
Man.. I'm honestly sitting here trying to talk myself out of offing myself and this suddenly drops. Ok MK, you bought me an hour at least.. thank you?
Damn, at least wait till after the PPV
Sorry to be this guy but I think Luke's mother may have taken her own life, maybe not the place for that shit big dog
My friend wait until after Volk vs Islam
Don't do it. Talk to somebody.
Hey Justin, don't do it. Will yourself into spending time and energy into something that will be productive and bring you positivity in your life. Whether it be the gym or something else, try that first. Much love!
The Iceman himself! 👏👏👏
Love it when you bring in Chuck for the big fights!
Can wait for the UK+ podcast!
Joe Lopez is such an underrated coach. It’s also funny how he talks about Alex he was like “most people wouldn’t take this kind of risk but Alex does what he wants” basically just saying it’s not a great idea but Alex is going to challenge himself and all he can do is help him
I think Volk has a point. He can became one of the greatest if beats Islam. If don’t, he can still beat senseless most of his division, earn big money, then retire before the new blood comes up.
“It’s not his (yair) fault that Ortega’s shoulder did what it did” actually it is lol
SERIOUSLY. I'm so goddamn sick of everyone saying it was a freak accident. Yair grabbed onto Ortega's arm, applied pressure, Ortega tried to pull his arm out, and his shoulder popped out of socket.
Basically it's a sub, just one without a name. A happenstance submission.
I think it's safe to say it was already compromised, but that's mma.
@@OctopusWithNoFriends when u go for a sub, u know what happened, u don't look surprised like yair..
"Some would say it's the thicciest" -BC 🤣🤣
Dead wrong 11:20 - it’s the ‘Warilla’ Gorillas 😂
MINDENHALLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the A team in MMA Media
Man! I love these episodes in particular.
How does this only have 14 views
Should've responded to you directly, but anyway, must be the Schaub liquor in the beginning. Showtime's got no love for Bapa.
This just premiered an hour ago, 18 hours after your comment.
@@JGAbstract what in the hell, Bobby?!
Now THIS was better than the other MK preview.
I love how they don't correct his Fedor mistake.
Inner monolog "Just keep saying Fedor"
Look with all due respect, even as a long time analyst of MMA and techniques I do believe that Luke seriously underestimates how difficult it is to defend wrestling PLUS judo against a guy whose musculature has developed over 25 years to apply force with a complex understanding of the manipulation of center of gravity of a person's body.
I do enjoy a healthy dose of mith 👍
we need more of chuck. when chucks around bc tends to be a little more serious and luke tends to relax a little more. perfect storm with these 3
Tienen que tener una sección con Chuck 1 vez x semana
Yo pense igual. Fuera bien tener a los 3 cada Viernes.
@@artchurro1 yo creo que Chuck debería tener una aparición en solitario de vez en cuando
@@asturiametal Es buena idea. Estuviera bien 👌
It says "Unlisted" right underneath the title so that's probably why.
Luke acts too cool for school to watch promoting Islam. The guy is actually pretty funny and charismatic and has that mystery Dagestan thing about him too
BC 25:46
1:00:16
Good stuff gentlemen
Islam is his own man, his own champ. All he has to do is keep dominating
If Volk wins this that puts him in GSP territory.
Honestly he's already in that territory. He'd surpass GSP if he manages to do this.
"Don't make me late for my train" - BC (impersonating Luke)
Chuck the consummate professional.
BC: Says A-team and proceed to make a V.
Best series on the channel
UFC Saturday Super Bowl 🏈 PLUS MY BIRTHDAY SUNDAY HEAVENLY IS THE WEEKEND HERE ❤❤❤ GOOD 👍Video Thanks
Enjoy🎉 🙌🏻
Max Holloway never bulked up volkanovski has with perfect preparation as well so comparing the 2 is a whole lot different at this point.
Your videos are of those few I actually watch from start to finish. Subscribed! Islam☝
If you guys don’t get Chuck some damn merch !!!!!
I thought Islam would continue to be reserved on mic, but he did very well for this fight
And Volk and Yair win that fight at 145, maybe in MX? Would be bonkers and super fun - and if Conor gets it done against Chandler, you could slide in Volk vs Conor (if Volk gets passed Yair). He could run the table and make bank this year, inshallah.
P4P matches for titles in UFC:
DC vs Stipe
Randy vs Belfort
Randy vs Chuck
Chuck vs Tito
Chuck vs Rampage
Rampage vs Henderson
Jones vs DC
Hughes vs Penn
Hughes vs GSP
GSP vs Penn
Cejudo vs dillishaw
Nunes vs Cyborg
And maybe Henderson vs Melendez
13:09 …that is exactly why Khabib won’t be in his corner and stepped away .
He’s letting them be there own man. Cause all this “coach Khabib coach Khabib” attention he probably feels it takes away from his boys so he’s off camera coaching them.
Good preview, however at @22:15 BC incorrectly says Charles got dominated in his next fight after beating Poirier, BC forgot that he defended against Justin first before then losing to Islam
Kinda fun to have BC interrupted for a change, lol.
Hahaah. Over turned!
God Bless Luke Thomas for talking real talk, for f@cks sake.
Stop shaming Luke. LET THE MAN DRINK and cut loose. THATS SUCH GOOD podcasting
Islam isn't as charismatic as Khabib but he is charismatic in his own way, especially in interviews with DC. Islams little rant on "checking black belts" is just as funny
I know exactly what Islam and his team is thinking....they saw how an average fighter like Brian Ortega was able to get on top of Volk and almost choke him...Islam is going to easily get Volk down and his strength 💪 and choke is much more powerful. It's a wrap for Volk. Cue the Vince mcMahon entrance music....You got...no chance!!
Brian really said Islam is “Fedor 2.0”
Legendary lmao
Also, Chuck's the man PERIOD
Islam like Khabib fights to the level of his competition. I am most looking forward to seeing how Islam handles Volks speed (foot and hand) as well as low center of gravity, tdd - its a super fun fight.
Why is this unlisted?
Quick Luke, berate us on our political opinions letting us know we are idiots and not just people with differing outlooks. It's why I'm here.
BC's first time in The UK+
This is the Dagestani era
could smell the alcohol through my monitor during the intro
Looks like a bottle of tiger thicccc whigskey. Bc supporting B schaub 24/7
some serious vinyl in the background right there. band of gypsys and heavy weather? MK is 4real
BC we got u, it's The mmA Team.
I hope Islam becomes the next P4P number 1 next because everyone else had their time and he was avoided for so many years... Anyway, both champs at their best and gonna give us fireworks.
The fact that Islam is somehow the #2 p4p fighter after having exactly 1 elite win is absolutely hilarious - look at what Alex, Kamaru, and Izzy had to do to even be considered top 3
@@painandpyro Islam has more wins inside the top 15 than Alex who only has beaten 3 ranked opponents out of the top 15. Usman's two title defenses against Masvidal were extremely weak considering that he could have fought other contenders but fought Colby twice and Burns, a former sparring partner. Adesanya has mostly had friendly sparring sessions... Islam's fights are one sided against the future top contenders, so he deserves to be ranked extremely high. Gotta blame the UFC for favoring fighters and protecting the biggest names at 155 from Islam...
@@painandpyro What you're ignoring is that Khabib had wiped out Poirier, Gaetjhe and Mcgregor before Makhachev ever got there and part of the Khabib 2.0 mystique is the recognition that Gaetjhe or Poirier will not last a round against Makhachev. Also, what did Alex Pereira do that Makhachev hasn't?
@@alcottdevalte7440 Name 2 elite wins Islam has.
Volkanovski has Holloway x3, we don't even need to go into his other accomplishments, that alone is a feat Islam hasn't even come close to touching.
Plus him, Kamaru, and Izzy have also actually defended their titles against contenders in their actual weight class multiple times, another thing Islam hasn't done.
And spare me the "no one eats to fight him" bs, literally every fighter who isn't seen as a "money fight" complains about the same thing, which you can see if take off your cult of dagestan blinders
@@painandpyro Islam has elite wins over Oliveira, Moises, Tibau, Hooker, Ramos and Arman. Alex has only beaten Max, thought he lost the rematch, and then he has a win over Ortega and an old Zombie. Aldo moved down to 135 several years ago before retirement and Chad Mendez retired several years ago, which confirms how stupid all the people are that say he has cleaned out the division when he only has win over 3 ranked opponents out of the top 15... Thought Adesanya lost to Romero and Whittaker in the rematch, not to mention his friendly sparring sessions against Romero, Jan, Vettori 2, Whittaker 2, and the Jared fight... As I said earlier, Usman fought Masvidal and Colby twice when they didn't deserve it even though I thought Colby won the rematch... Usman could have fought other contenders that were on longer winning streaks but didn't.
They ranked Makhachev on 3, and then Izzy, the number 2, was beaten by Poatan and dropped on the ranking
Luke acts like if there is too much liquor in his cup he HAS to drink it lol. Culture
I follow AKA channel and I can tell you Islam is even funnier (sense of humor) and charismatic than Khabib. You just have not seen enough content to understand his persona😂😉
Trying to beat Khabib and Islam in their prime is tough. I do believe that those who counter wrestle offensively have a better chance of success. Those who did have shown better resistance than those who tried to only defend takedowns. But all have still lost.
BC needs to let Luke and Chuck talk a bit more.
Why so Luke can be precious and lecture people more?
@@briangardner7575 yes
Just Chuck
I’m hyped
These guys are jokes besides the dude in the middle ..
Lol there called Warilla gorillas no idea wat chuck called them
Half an hour of talk about Islam. You finally get to talking about Volk. 3 minutes later you’ve swung it back to talking about Islam. It’s crazy how often Volk is disrespected in subtle ways like this.
10:00
You mean Khabib dude.
Not Fedor!
These old cans are jaded af. Culibao vs Baghdasaryan might be the 3rd best fight on the card
Sorry, but an actual MMA A team would replace Brian. The A team doesn't need fart jokes and casual takes.
Drunken Belligerent Luke is Undefeated. Test yourself against the best!!!
43:21 Come again Chuck.
dana is already promoting JBJ as #1 p4p if he wins like 2 weeks later so yeah this won’t matter
time stamps guys if u wanna grow dis shi
HTF did no one here about Joe Calzogii
These dude are big trippin if they're comparing Islam's record to khabibs. Bro just calm down and look at their last 5 fights. Take a deep breath.... then stop talking.
I like watching Yair and his fight this weekend is a great fight but i do question how highly everyone seems to rate him. In his last 5 fights he got beat by Egdar. Was getting comfortably beat by Zombie before the 1 in a million amazing last minute KO. He beat Stephens well in a good fight but stephens has lost god knows how many of his last 10 fights. He then got beat by Holloway even though he fought well but people have started to wonder if Max is on the slide since and then he got the win because of the Ortega injury. I like Yair but just always feel he has to show more for the level of hype he has. Without the 1 in a million shot v zombie he is 2-3 going in to this fight with one of the wins being oppos shoulder popping.
Great fight over the weekend though. Think Volk is safe against any of the winners though.
I think Islam will finish with a better resume than khabib and think he’ll also end up with 170 belt - but khabib would’ve beaten him if fought
Great show. Peak mma programming.
I think Khabib will always be the better fighter, but Islam can get a better record eventually.
Yo I been out of the loop for a month or so. Why is Schaub a "former colleague"?
Even if Alex's tdd has gotten better, he got taken down by ORTEGA who has terrible TDs. lol
"That sounds like a slave owners name" HA!!!!😅😂😂
anyone who thinks Ortega or Chad is anywhere near to makachev on wrestling is delusional
Islam by submission rd 1 or 2
As much as I don't like Mahachev, if he does beat Volk and 2 more good opponents, he will surpass Khabib. Khabib most notable wins are Dustin, Justin, Conor, and Barboza.
All of them are good, but Islam came up fighting the new gen, and they are better fighters overall compared to Khabib competition.
Arman alone would beat Khabib past opponents. 29-0 in impressive, but against who was that 29 wins?
Also, Olivera destroyed most of Khabib top opponents except Conor.
Chuck is goated foreal
Luke looking THIIIIIICK AF!
He became number 2 p4p because he won against number 2 p4p , so it is like he took away the position from charles, and now if he beats volk then he will take his number 1 position.
Charles beat Chandler, Poirier and Gaethje - Islam doesn’t inherit the credit for those wins just by beating Charles. The whole P4P debate is nonsense anyway.
BC can waffle... great show otherwise!
26:40 that’s cap. A inner lip tattoo will not fade in 5 years. Anyone who says otherwise doesn’t know what tf they are saying lol
