That fact the Justin puts the belt away when he goes to see Dustin was such a class act. Big ups to him and I’m looking forward to seeing him go for the title.
There is a lot to learn from dustin here. The way he's so calm even after the loss and paying his respect to gaethje. He's taking this loss like a man and that's much appreciated.
When did we start supporting and praising losing? This generation of participation award winners is the demise of what we call competition Justin fought a great fight and overcame so much adversity we should praise the redemption
@@Howhighsquad001 I was curious what kind of interests you have to be acting this pretentious on ufc vid. You’re really out here subbed to tik tok babes but trying to lecture about flaws in current society lol
Wtf man, it's insane how good Gaethje's striking has become. From outstriking a Muay Thai master in Fiziev, to knocking out Dustin Poirier like that with a beautiful hidden high kick.... Already respected him tremendously but it's even higher now
@@goodxd701 Imo, if he fights Charles again, same thing happens. I don't think Justin can be himself against a high level submission artist like that and he probably gets pressured technically and mentally.
Isn't it too much of an exaggeration to call it "outstriking" for a fight that was won by majority decision after falling behind in accurate strikes in the first 2 rounds?
I think Justin is about to be champion these last two fights he's been unbelievable. His foot work hard to see his power and patience and countering. He's doing everything right
Oh please. There is levels to this. He wont be a chanpion. Charles and Islam are just on another level. He is winning belt if those 2 get injured. Even then there is Beneil. Cmon man we saw him against Charles.
@@anhbayar11 yeah we all saw what Charles did to him and I’m not taking any credit away from Charles’s performance, but the Gaethje we saw in that fight was completely different from the recent version of Gaethje we’ve seen in the Fiziev fight and the Poirier rematch. Those two fights showed a Gaethje who was much more patient and technical, picking his shots well and using good footwork and head movement to avoid damage from his opponent, and he used his jab and straight shots a lot more effectively than before, rather than just loading up on wild hooks like he used to. And on top of that, we gotta remember that after the Charles fight is when Gaethje finally got his deviated septum fixed, so Gaethje’s recent two fights against Fiziev and Poirier were the first fights he’s ever had where he was able to breath out of his nose, and that’s why we saw improvements in his cardio as well
One of them clearly was going out with a knockout. My god these two are my favorite fighters, hats off to both, they are true warriors and winners both in the game and in life, so much respect and value coming from them it is really rare nowadays.
I love how Justin even thinks it’s luck in the moment. It wasn’t luck. The dude is a monster and you can tell he changed his whole game because of that original loss. Good shit Justin that was wild boy.
@@jonyhyder6506 i mean do you know what exact shot wll ko your opponent?.. its not like a submission you hit a lot and one eventually gets the job done, you dont know which one will get it done until the opponent falls
@@jonyhyder6506nope it’s not luck he trained for it. It was timed and landed. He surprised himself but muscle memory and technique took over. Not luck at all
Definitely an inspiring story for the Porier loss to be what caused Gaethje to become a better fighter and he proved it tonight. Both men are warriors and living legends.
Its hard watching two of your favorite fighters compete knowing someone has to lose. Respect to both of them and huge congrats to Gaethje. The improvements in his game over the last few years have been insane
Gaethje looked on another level tonight. Nobody pieces Poirer up like he did in RD1. Let alone the crazy KO finish. Ppl gotta give him more respect than just he's violent & fun. He's phenomenal.
It's always surprising to me that Justin Gatjhe is actually 34 years old. 34 years old and still has so much potential, I mean this guy was the highlight 5 years ago. D1 wrestler turned brawler and now a picture-perfect head kick. This guy can do so much more than what we expect and that's at 34 years of age. God this guy is good. Honestly, if this guy just lets himself evolve more he can definitely go on to have one of the best championship reigns at lightweight.
@@TropicoDreams You're trolling, right? That's definitely not your prime when it comes to your anatomy, when you've been in the sport for as long as Justin has been. You might hit your prime mentally though and there's definitely an overlap between the two at the ages 28-33.
I don't see him beating Charles or makhachev multiple times.....one lucky shot once can happen tho....would be nice to see him rock that belt....noone deserves it more.....
@CrazyLouiee At that age, it is more mental and emotional prime. The beginning of wisdom. With that comes more composure.. and from there as you age, you gain even more. Acting less on emotion. The only issue with that though, is that while this is taking place, simultaneously, , reactionary timing and even speed/ quickness begin to drop, strength will drop a little more slowly because it can be maintained for a while longer if you stay on top of it... As you age, the ability to beat someone younger and more energetic will come down more to knowledge or wisdom gained over time than someone younger. Usually it goes.. tenacity, strength, and speed are what you have when you're younger.. As you age.. the speed and tenacity and reactionary timing will drop ( strength can be maintained ) but will rely mostly on the accumulation of experience and knowledge or wisdom you've gained along the way.
@rpawis One lucky shot is all it takes. If there's any two people that it's been shown can be knocked out or knocked down with a good shot it's both Charles and Islam.
Dude this was so unexpected I didn't even thought it's possible to knock out poirier haha. This fight showed how much gaethje has improved over last 5 years. He gotta get that title shot now!
Neither deserves a title shot. Dude just lost to Oliveira 2 matches back. He needs at least 1 more high rank opponent. Stop giving title shots this easily. What a joke.
@@cookieking1996 I did but it was long time ago and dustin has been consistently improving ever since so it was very unexpected so see him getting knocked out like this.
bro I was SCREAMING when this happened i love justin gatheje he one of the greatest ever and he TRULY brings the heat more than anyone else,he IS THE ONE AND THE ONLY TRUE BMF
That was so badass!!! Made me tear up a bit... so perfect! Dustin's always been 1 step ahead and Justin's just been earning it time after time!!! Congrats man! I knew you could do it!!!!!
Bro why was I just typing this myself lol That is hilarious honestly. I was just thinking that same thing like dam I got so excited for Gaethje but at the same time it kind of hurt me a little seeing Porier go out like that. Love both those guys. True warriors and it looked like we were in for a fight of the year type of fight. But dam he just caught him with that Leon though lol.
Lol yep, amazing knockout, Usman was training with Justin, there's no way he didn't teach him that kick - it was down to the inch the exact same. Literally a Karmanic victory!!! Usman just needs to KO Leon with it, then the story is complete
Dustin looked weirdly composed after the head kick. Even on the ground the awareness that he got knocked out, the guy is so composed. Hats off to Gaethje for that KO tho.
Timely stoppage, just like their first fight, the fight should be stopped when you're no longer defending intelligently. It wasn't even half as bad as Kamaru going to heaven
@@door-hingeIf the fight continued any longer Justin would’ve ground and pounded the hell out of him. Dustin wouldn’t have survived, but if he somehow did he’d have to deal with a crazy concussion being rocked and wobbly against Justin So ye Herb Dean definitely made the right call

Hats off to herb Dean that was one of the best stoppages I have ever seen. He did a great job of protecting the fighter. More should be said about him.
Gaethje chalked his victory up to luck and chance, but he looked a step ahead of Porier the entire fight. He was feinting, creating beautiful angles and hitting and not being hit. The most calculated we’ve ever seen Gaethje. The wherewithal to draw porier to the cage to get Porier on the front foot, feint to stop Porier’s offense then throw into the opening… my god, Gaethje looked unbelievable.
@@reyansk709he wasn’t really getting hit clean. He was able to roll with most of the punches in the first round and he’d fire back his own punches that landed flush

@@zypher9959didn't u see the right hook in the first round. That punch is skull cracking one. But the one he talked about is the one that got Justin back off to the side
Im so happy for gaethje, was rooting for him the whole time, if there's anyone who can come back and win the undisputed title its gaethje with his insane power
God damn it!!! This arena has a thing about it, justin landed the same the head kick that Leon landed on kamaru infront of the same crowd. its really unbelievable
There really are so many variables in this sport. Of all the possible outcomes, i never would have thought a headkick would be the shot to finish this fight. That unpredictability is what makes this the most fascinating sport.
@@replexityhe’s probably never making 155 ever again but he could still do it. He’s only 5’8. He used to be barely just under 170 without cutting any weight he could easily fall down to a more natural weight off of steroids and make 155
Both are true class acts, justin has improved all around in life, his fight game iQ, his patience, his power, his speech, he just seem all around better, time a dedication to improve all around as a human are extremely felt. Amazing, he certainly should be motivating all at this point! God Bless❤
Inspiring humility here from both fighters. Good sportsmanship and Gaethje essentially saying he was lucky. Other fighters these days should seriously take notes. Congrats Justin, my favorite fighter
Literally the biggest Justin fan in the world, but as a true fan of the sport I couldn't help but shed a tear as Dustin showed good sportsmanship then exited, knowing he's probably done
Fantastic victory by Gaethje. Evolved Gaethje is always a problem. You could tell he was tapping into his next-level fighting. He's locked into the benefits of it and it feels like he's firmly become this next level of fighter with no reverting backward. I love that he didn't brawl his way to the victory and make it "a car crash for the ages" like he was quoted saying. He was measured, collected and centered from the first round. It reminded me of when he fought Ferguson and we saw those first signs of his evolution. It was beautiful skill. He has the kind of mentality, precision and patience of skill now that I believe can hold the belt. The former Gaethje was too reckless. But this evolved Gaethje is a championship belt holder in my book. Can't wait for his championship bout as he bring his evolved style and mindset of fighting to the table.
Props to Herb and Justin for not giving Dustin unnecessary damage. Justin is really a stand up guy to not go for a kill shot which he had every right to do.
@@bengalihindu Why should Dustin fight Colby who is a full weight class above him? You can't be 'afraid' of fighting someone above a division than yours. It doesn't work like that, on the other hand Colby deserves criticism for avoiding Leon in 2021, Gilbert before that, and recently Belal.
Ranking wise they’re still up there but Justin gets the title shot while Dustin got set back from it by 2-3 more fights, especially since he’s 34 and in the lighter weight classes, that’s the end of your prime
Que Grande y humilde Geathje! Amo a estos dos guerreros! Era dificil para mi decidir por uno, pero sin duda me alegro DEMASIADO por Geathje🥺👏👏👏 gracias Dios por permitirme vivir estos momentos y ver estos dos guerreros en su mejor momento 👏👏🙏

Gaethje looked like a completely different fighter tonight. The way he was staying calm than throwing wild punches. I even think he was doing great in the first round.
That fact the Justin puts the belt away when he goes to see Dustin was such a class act. Big ups to him and I’m looking forward to seeing him go for the title.
He puts it away because he wants the title belt. Did the same thing with the interim belt against Tony.

He cracked Justin In the first round ? Dustin was getting lit up, what u talking about?
@@zypher9959what are you talking about? Justin def did get cracked in the first round
@@zypher9959he bleed in 1st round don't act like its total domination
@@zypher9959didn't u see the right hook in the first round. That punch is skull cracking one. But the one he talked about is the one that got Justin back off to the side
What bww
NOOOO dustin, this is heartbreaking. Props to Justin though, that head kick was timed beautifully.
Im so happy for gaethje, was rooting for him the whole time, if there's anyone who can come back and win the undisputed title its gaethje with his insane power
Who the hell saw a Gaethje head kick ko coming 😂. Love this sport
Nobody says a word when the ref jumps in with supernatural speed and saves a great fighter from taking extra damage. Well done Herb Dean
God damn it!!! This arena has a thing about it, justin landed the same the head kick that Leon landed on kamaru infront of the same crowd. its really unbelievable
Nothing but class from both competitors... Justin is the true BMF in the UFC 🔥
Joe took the words out of my mouth when he said it replicated leons head kick, he covered that kick so well holy shot
I love the respect between them. How fighters should act
Man I was expecting 4-5 rounds.. what a kick man and congrats to JG.. wild. Great PPV
I've always said Justin is the TRUE BMF.. Not Nate, Not Masvidal and Not Dustin Poireir, Glad my boy Gaethje won the BMF title
Khabib is true BMF he make all tap including your idol contap chicken 😂🐓
@@shoresy4084yes it's true
But gathje is a beast nonetheless
And so is poirer
@@shoresy4084contap chicken?…. What’re you ten?..
@@shoresy4084 Trolling attempt 3/10 way too obvious
Peter griffin is ur second account. Spamming comments
My two favorite fighters . Hurt bad to see Dustin lose but love seeing Justin get his get back
There really are so many variables in this sport. Of all the possible outcomes, i never would have thought a headkick would be the shot to finish this fight.
That unpredictability is what makes this the most fascinating sport.
Justin Gaethje is the meaning of respect and sportsmanship together
Justin is a beast in the ring, and a class act after the fight by acknowledging his opponent.
Too sad to see Dustin lose like that, but I can't put Justin down, the guy is a monster!
Justin "The odds said I couldn't do it. The fans said I couldn't do it. Look at me now, living it. Head shot dead. That's it." Gaethje 😎
Man, I'm sad for Dustin. What a revenge knockout for Justin. I think Justin should get the next title shot next.
Conor call him out 😂😅🤔
@@vilotfox1Conor weighs 190 & is never fighting again, he is a talking head that exists purely to stoke the fire at this point
@@replexityhe’s probably never making 155 ever again but he could still do it. He’s only 5’8. He used to be barely just under 170 without cutting any weight he could easily fall down to a more natural weight off of steroids and make 155
Well he will get tapped by islam but sure, let’s go.
@BinaryDoesNotExist Correct, but that does no good for him when calling out lightweight fighters.
Both are true class acts, justin has improved all around in life, his fight game iQ, his patience, his power, his speech, he just seem all around better, time a dedication to improve all around as a human are extremely felt. Amazing, he certainly should be motivating all at this point! God Bless❤
The way he threw the punch at almost the same time n speed as tht kick is crazy talented 😮
Justin did blow the roof off the place.
Congrats Justin Gathje.😃😃
Kamaru Usman after seeing that - Justin was never my friend
That ko was perfect! Perfect shot and he let out his warrior ahh while doing it! Both men are warriors. Still wanna see the trilogy!
Inspiring humility here from both fighters. Good sportsmanship and Gaethje essentially saying he was lucky. Other fighters these days should seriously take notes. Congrats Justin, my favorite fighter
Literally the biggest Justin fan in the world, but as a true fan of the sport I couldn't help but shed a tear as Dustin showed good sportsmanship then exited, knowing he's probably done
He's only 34. No championships in the near future but if you think he's not gonna fight you dont know him.
Mirroring history and yet another devastating head kick knockout 😱🤯🔥🔥🔥
justin was on another level tonight! amazing knockout for justin looking forward to a title shot🎉🎉
Jorge did not want to wrap that around 😂😂😂
Toy belt is a toy belt. He wants the real championship.
he lost 100k on the fight, and it was Leons 2 piece and a soda that ended it.
Fantastic victory by Gaethje. Evolved Gaethje is always a problem. You could tell he was tapping into his next-level fighting. He's locked into the benefits of it and it feels like he's firmly become this next level of fighter with no reverting backward. I love that he didn't brawl his way to the victory and make it "a car crash for the ages" like he was quoted saying. He was measured, collected and centered from the first round. It reminded me of when he fought Ferguson and we saw those first signs of his evolution. It was beautiful skill. He has the kind of mentality, precision and patience of skill now that I believe can hold the belt. The former Gaethje was too reckless. But this evolved Gaethje is a championship belt holder in my book. Can't wait for his championship bout as he bring his evolved style and mindset of fighting to the table.
Insanity 🔥🔥 Gaethje has gotten so much better
This 2 guys are my favorite fighters, it's heartbreaking that one of them lose. But hope they get back at it.
Justin Gaejhe truly is a phenomenal fighter, wow. Incredibly impressive knockout.
Gaethje proved he has improved leaps and bounds, causing the same amount of damage like he used to but without recklessness.
Props to Herb and Justin for not giving Dustin unnecessary damage. Justin is really a stand up guy to not go for a kill shot which he had every right to do.
Everyone's favourite fighter❤
Great For Justin!!!! Guy is all class he deserves this moment!
Justin deserved this win! Hopefully Dustin gets a couple more fights in before retirement.
Dustin can fight Colby..But he is afraid of him..
@@bengalihindu Why should Dustin fight Colby who is a full weight class above him? You can't be 'afraid' of fighting someone above a division than yours. It doesn't work like that, on the other hand Colby deserves criticism for avoiding Leon in 2021, Gilbert before that, and recently Belal.
@@madgavin7568 colby is fake.All his wins are against retired fighters.
This is one of the fights where you root for both guys. But I think whoever loses wouldnt be that bad, both are still at the top.
Ranking wise they’re still up there but Justin gets the title shot while Dustin got set back from it by 2-3 more fights, especially since he’s 34 and in the lighter weight classes, that’s the end of your prime
@@jocoolshowah dammit that sucks nvm
Both of these guys are true Warriors you can't hate either one.
what a year gaethje has had, i hope he goes on to win the world title
Hope we get to see the trilogy between those two. Outside of that, congrats to Gaejthe for that wicked win.
Que Grande y humilde Geathje! Amo a estos dos guerreros! Era dificil para mi decidir por uno, pero sin duda me alegro DEMASIADO por Geathje🥺👏👏👏 gracias Dios por permitirme vivir estos momentos y ver estos dos guerreros en su mejor momento 👏👏🙏
Well done Justin! A true warrior and so himble in your victory. Respect !!!!
That was a fight where I didn't want either guy to lose! Congrats to Justin. The fighter's fighter, and classy in victory. Bravo, sir.
Kudos to Herb Dean! He put his whole body into that stoppage to protect Dustin as much as he could.
Amazing knockout, Usman was training with Justin, there's no way he didn't teach him that kick - it was down to the inch the exact same. Literally a Karmanic victory!!! Usman just needs to KO Leon with it, then the story is complete 😂😂😂
He had his chance
Usman can't get his leg high enough to teach him that
Leon changed that man forever
A feint to a headkick Is a day 1 kickboxing technique bro lol
wait, what... Usman taught Justin a knock out head kick technique he got knocked out with? If so, that makes no sense.
Usman’s knees ain’t gonna allow him to do a head kick, especially on Leon who’s 6’2.
As decent sized fan of both but who picked Dustin to win, all I can say congrats to the champ he deserves it he looked like a beast today
I always wanted Justin to win a Division Championship and this title is just suited for him, congratulations BMF.
It’s meaningless though. Good for him but this BMF nonsense makes the sport look goofy
@jarnold1789 theyre treating it like a TV title in pro wrestling. Its the "peoples champion" belt. Itll definitely help dudes get actual title shots.
@@cfields8507 I suppose that’s true and that’s a good thing. I know the ufc definitely has a heavy “sports entertainment” element to it, but making it more like professional wrestling doesn’t appeal to me personally
The Leon Edwards kick but with the opposite leg 🔥
Wanted Porier to win but I love both these guys so congrats to Gaethje! Both guys are as real and as humble as you can be! Love em both. ♥
So proud of this dude. He’s gone through a lot of adversity in the sport and he’s made it out the other end an official baddass mfthker 🎉
Gaethje has some of the most devastating leg kicks in MMA. He needs to throw more head and body kicks.
Amazing victory.
Dustin is a monster in the cage man, props to Justin amazing KO , evolved great in the game, thanks to both
the way Herb gets in there has really endeared him to me over the years
Два хороших воспитанных без всякой воды бойца встретились снова, сперва один выиграл потом другой и победила дружба 👬 Молодцы ребята!
Gaethje looked like a completely different fighter tonight. The way he was staying calm than throwing wild punches. I even think he was doing great in the first round.
