the bjj part, fighting the white belt up to the black belt professor and the rashguard as a reward at the end was the best 👌

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️
Bo "Tickle your Pickle" Nickal!
Mad props Bo looking forward to you taking on the top competition!
Wrestling for people that suck is just as important. My wrestling coach changed my life.I beat our heavy weight in practice one time and got tortured by our light weight. Lol I was a stoner kid..
My coach did exhibition match,he put me against our smallest guy who was a badass I was bit larger then average
My coach new I wouldn't mind losing, that mangling happened in front of my mom.😂❤
Bo broke the first rule
Can we all take a moment to appreciate the brilliance of ATT starting a chapter in happy valley, next door to the highest concentration of early 20s year old world class wrestlers in probably the entire world? Just genius. That gym is going to be a powerhouse. And doubles as even more recruitment material for penn state, not that they need more than the goat for HC.
agreed!
US
Where is the video of bo pretending to be a newbie haha
Add coments

He’s like the Jake Paul of mma. And he’s going to keep wining if they give him a fair shake
Are you high?..... Bo is way more talented at wrestling then Jake was at boxing.
@@frankiecal3186 no shit he's been wrestling since he was 4
@@mixdoe2885 Thanks for stating the obvious.....genius.
My turn.
He’s like the Mariah Carey of mma, as long as he’s alive he’s gonna keep making hits
@@frankiecal3186 bo is and always will be a great wrestler but I don't see him going too far in mma.
Please can you come to me 47:57
im so glad Bo Nickal and shavkat rakhmonov aren't in the same devision, you just know Dana would make them fight each other because he's too busy servicing all the muslim fighters.
Hope they give him a worthy opponent soon.... up till now it's been UFC tomato cans. He's beaten every single one in one round.
Just wait till the top 15 bo gets smashed
@@raybud3494 I doubt it, but more to the point it would be good to finally see Nickal against some quality opponents.
@@raybud3494Bo is being slow and steady with his career, he knows when he's ready
See that’s why I love the difference of opinions there like assholes everyone got 1..
Anyways bo don’t stand a chance against top 5 in the world.. idgaf what anyone has to say..
@@raybud3494 My point is that I'd like to see Bo stretched. UFC is quite protective of its stars though.
Isn’t that also him admitting he’s never been tested?
Do, re, mi, let's start to sing,
About a wrestler, a force within,
His name is Bo, he's got some flair,
Delivering low blows, foes beware.
(Chorus)
Bo, Bo, the master of low blows,
Stepping in the ring, everybody knows,
With a sly grin and a wink so free,
Bo, Bo, the one we want to see!
Re, mi, fa, we'll spin this tale,
Of Bo's conquests, he'll never fail,
He dances 'round, with cunning guile,
Leaving his opponents in a pile.
Bo, Bo, the master of low blows,
Stepping in the ring, everybody knows,
With a sly grin and a wink so free,
Bo, Bo, the one we want to see!
Sol, la, ti, the crowd will cheer,
When Bo walks in, they know he's near,
His every move, a work of art,
Bo's low blows, they hit the mark.
Do, ti, la, the end is close,
For those who face Bo, they'll feel the woes,
His low blows strike, so swift and sly,
Another win, he'll reach the sky.
Bo, Bo, the master of low blows,
Stepping in the ring, everybody knows,
With a sly grin and a wink so free,
Bo, Bo, the one we want to see!
Do, re, mi, we've sung our tale,
Of Bo the wrestler, his legend will sail,
The master of low blows, a hero so bold,
Bo, Bo, his story's been told.

That is a long long long ways away. Also would take bones jones and volk losing or retire which I don’t see for at least 3-5 years.
