Shout out to the reporter for flagging Whittaker & Costa for FOTN
For a WHOPPING lousy $50,000 for getting their brains bashed. At least make the bonuses $100,000 like c’mon after all the UFC’s success and bragging about highest grossing events in arena history every month it seems. Bs. Fighters deserve more pay
@@ViralVirus-v9zYou are absolutely right, but the UFC has all the power in negotiations so fighter pay is unfortunately low.
@@ViralVirus-v9zremember when Tony asked UFC to increase ir to 75K for being on Texas and they actually did it
Giving Dern vs Lemos the Fight of the Night instead of Whittaker vs Costa is absolutely ridiculous…
Shoulda gave dern cake of the night ya feel me that thang was jigglin
The UFC love towards Dern is a head scratcher
@@jaimemendez8098 not really, social media interactions when shes got that ass out are poppin. they show love to fighters who bring viewers regardless of their skill level
I said wow to that aswell. I was highly dissapointed but felt reassured seeing your comment as the first comment! Props!
how was that the fight of the night what the fuck.
Whittaker is a warrior!! That was fight of the night… it’s no contest!!!! Props to Paulo
Decision of the night. 😂😂😂
Was that supposed to be a burn or?
@@brusli1732huh? So was Lemos
Paulo is underrated😊
Can’t believe it wasn’t
Whittaker vs Costa not getting FOTN is crazyyyyyyy
Insane
Was Lamos and Dern a good fight? I missed it
@@jmz2144 it's wasnt terrible, but still not fotn imo
💯%
Dana doesn't like Costa, even with the ceremonial weighing he doesn't Shake hand
When Dana doesn't like a question even though he knows exactly what they're asking him he says "what do you mean?" or he dodges the question by saying "what do you think?"
Or "I cant hear you" then ask to repeat while he thinks of an excuse
I almost shed a tear anytime dana says something truthful… that rarely happens 🤷♂️
That's a pretty tried and tested tactic of answer live questions on the fly.
@@meyao8987when he’s shitting on someone just as bad as him 💀
Dana is embarrassed to announce ufc 300 main event
Honestly I think he's just guessing anymore.
😂 WTF? UFC STILL ONLY gives $50,000 for Fight Of The Night?? DANA throws down $50,000+ per HAND in VEGAS 😂

Wow .. Whittaker and Costa was not the fight of the night or performance of the night ?? Wow
That's what I'm saying
I’m pissed at Dana for not naming costa vs rob as fight of the night

ok so pay them 50k each
costa vs robert was a shitshow, just leg kicks, no real action, a prelimfight not ca main event

Dana showed his greedy true colors yet again. He doesn’t want to give Costa extra money because he doesn’t like him due to his prior antics
Yep.
Ludicrous comment.
@@mooncat.787 🐑
He probably gave Whittaker 50k on the side cause he definitely hates Costa

NO $50.000 TO BOBBY KNUCKLES???
i liked how dana gave leon edwards the praise for taking any fight. even before covid when noone would fight chimaev he said yes right away.
Big facts 💯🔥💪🏾
He took Lemons off of the rankings , he was 4th at that time, just to make him agree and prove a point that ranking doesn't mean much at times
dana was the same guy, who wouldnt let Leon fight for the titlle 2 fights ago..... lol
He said no to colby though 😂
People try to discredit Leon on a weekly basis lol dude deserves what he has and more
Dana so happy that he can match up Holloway and Topuria now. Volk was a problem because he beat Max three times already
As long as Justin doesn't give max the Ferguson treatment
UFC seriously still giving out 50k as a bonus? Surely that should be adjusted for 20 years of inflation and massive company growth...
Should be $100k considering inflation and all the money they’re pulling from the gates.
50k for just doing your job is still alot
@@Alex-tu9bh "foR juSt dOinG yOur JoB" - you are aware the money has to pay for off-period, recovery, surgeries, teams, coaches, cooks, trainers and much more?
Dern V Lemos fight of the night? They literally rolled around doing nothing for the majority of the fight.. RoB V Paulo deserved that
Totally agree 💯
This is MMA, roll actually matters, takedown actually matters and costa an Whitaker give an awesome fight but not that much variety
Did you just showcase you’re a casual? 😂😂
You don't understand grappling and high level BJJ.
@@akeniwa Since when was fight of the night judged on "variety" It's the "fight of the night" AKA the best/most exciting. If you would prefer Dern V Lemos 2 over Rob V Paulo again that's on you..
Props to Marab, but Dana saying retiring for 3 years never worked out for anyone is a lie. GSP won the middleweight title after a 4 year retirement
Also, John Jones)))
Yea 2 best fighters ever in general bad idea
@@bryanmorrison2396 that “monster” drink got him speaking some sober thoughts

Everybody is different timmy
Shoutout to Dana showing love to Leon Edwards accepting all fights.
No, Garry's fight was horrible Dana, perhaps you were sleeping and missed it...he ran away the whole fight.
With the same logic Neal kept hugging him against the fence
@@paddygallery8891to try and engage somehow. He had to clinch so he couldn't run away
It was a good fight, you just don't know what you're watching. Garry's footwork is amazing.
@@SavageCombatI would argue you’ve never even watched a good fight if you genuinely think that was a good fight.
Both fighters sucked and were scared to engage.
@@disturbed157and he did nothing with it. They both fought like wet blankets, deal with it.
I can't believe dana is saying he has to "think" about giving volk rematch
yeah thats crazy unless he wants topuria to fight conor
Dude he got knocked out bad twice in 4 months. You want to send Volk to his grave?
He got flatlined why in gods name should that be ran back right now
Because he's been champ for over 4 years. Deserves an immediate rematch.
nah. Let topuria have 1 or 2 defenses while volk takes time off and then volk gets his last chance at the belt. Volk has been kod bad twice in 4 months. Its too much.@@georgecase5908
Lmao 24:18 Dana still salty about Cejudo unceremoniously retiring 3 years ago. Honestly can't blame him, business wise. I still remember the look of disgust he had on his face during his first retirement speech.
Good bye Triple Cringe Cejudo. This time, stay retired.
Yeah, Cejudo wanted to talk on Mic. And Dana said you better not give him the mic
@@nm5612They would have given him the mic if Merab didn’t talk for 20 minutes about absolutely nothing
Could of stayed the last time while he was champion and made more money
I think Henry should have stayed retired,all he did as champ, champ two divisions,now will be remembered for comeback double loses.
Dana nervous as hell waiting for someone to ask about 300...😂
Haha. Shouldn't have said the main event was going to be mind blowing. Alex v Hill is clearly like the 3rd or 4th backup plan.
@@rabguk I think, it should have been the mainevent for 301 in Rio. Who is it now? Pontoja? 🤓
@@KingPAZmmaI thought the same. Alex in rio would’ve been the best. Dana threw it big time. Still a good fight tho.
Jhill should be NOWHERE NEAR the 300 main event
bro jamahil hill is such a good and exciting fighter, I don't get the hate? Like he's not a star sure, but none of the stars were available
Conceive believe achieved
It’s actually a good fight. Alex against the most exciting contender, but it was hyped up like a super fight which it really isn’t
Finally Leon getting the respect he deserves!
💯
Leon sucks
Dana got that same exact desperate smile on his face for UFC 300 that he gets anytime he pretends slap fight is worth af
Why are so worried about his Slap fighting. Powerslap is here to stay deal with it. Also UFC 300 Main Event is good.
@@GratefulfellowLol no it’s not. Dana’s doing his best to push it but slap fighting does not have longevity
I was into it for like a week and then it got extremely boring and that’s what most people’s experience is as well. It’s a carnival act not ready for prime time
@@GratefulfellowDana burner account 😂
@@LarryGoggins000 Nope am just someone against cancel culture. U don't like something u move on.
Amazing fights! Costa vs Whittaker was my personal FOTN
Dana wanted to give either Khamzat, Shavkat and Islam the fight vs Leon. They probably all said no because of Ramadan and didn’t offer Belal the fight when he would’ve agreed. What a shame
Excellent suspicion.
Watching the grass grow is more entertaining than watching Belal fight
@@onana34 No offence but I heard your name as Pajeet first.
@@qtt8122 but I'm not bud
I'm pretty sure Belal is also muslim.
Man the secret juice was about 6to8 more seconds from a win, after that kick to the Reapers head.
UFC 300 is such a flat tire… It needs a main event like Machachev vs Leon edwards or even Jones vs Stipe, Khamzat vs du plesis, or Conor vs Chandler … Hill vs alex is a good co main but not main.
muslims are on ramadan at that time, jones injured for X amount of time, leon
fought not long ago, and doesnt have an opponent if he would be okey fighting. conor and chandler is just a meme fight anyway... that leaving us with hill and pereira
Dana sold himself short , should of held BMF title back as a main event but he shot his shot too early
@@aurelijus1it’s sad but there aren’t many great fighters left in the UFC. Just some good events here and there
@@IamKirkoBangzyeah that crossover is more exciting than just a regular title defense I agree
@@masoncordell9685 absolutely, it would sell more too
So Dana's hating on Whittaker n costa
Probably because Costa lost he kinda likes him
Dana said He’ll kick some to them.
I wanna know whos gonna be on the 301 card in Brasil since 300 is taking all the good Brazilians
The UFC has enough Brazilians to fill up 4 cards so i wouldnt get emotional over it
There will be enough time between ufc 300 & ufc 301 for alot of those same Brazilian fighters to fight on both cards
Pantoja might headline the card at this point which is questionable
Amanda lemos obviously
If they'll have Pantoja headlining and the two biggest stars - Charles and Pereira - out, this card better not be a PPV, because it would be the lowest selling PPV card of all time.
Good to hear Dana talk up Leon
No bonuses for Costa and Whitaker is crazy
My god, the amount dumb fucking questions these "journalists" ask after every event is depressing. "he changed his instagram bio to 15-0; what do you think that says about a guy like that?" Like, wtf? Why don't you just full commit and ask him something like; "well, Robert Whittaker confessed he prefers wheat bread to white. How do you think that impacts his capacity to climb the ranks at 185lbs?"
Alex wants the rematch you sort of have to give it to him, 7 defences and 14-0 at featherweight before tonight.
Hell just lose a decision this time around
If they didn't give it to Aldo after 9 defences in WEC+UFC, they shouldn't give to Volk. UFC is not fair.
Volk obviously deserves it, especially since there isn't a clear contender (Max is fighting Gaethje), and you just can't keep giving shots to Ortega or Rodríguez.
BUT, I'm concerned about Volks health. After 2 KO losses, I wouldn't mind him taking a long break.
5 defences three of switch were Max...
Something tells me they're not going to give it to him
Man the performance of both georgians was incredible tonight. Kudos to you tough guys
they both hoist other countries' flags, merab had USA flag, topuria had spain flag. they abandoned "georgia"

Jamahal is gonna headline ufc 300😂🤣😂🤣
Rob & Costa deserves FOTN
A fight event at Santiago Bernabéu would be crazy ngl
The UFC announcers and Dana White seem to have forgotten that Jose Aldo defended the featherweight belt 7 times whereas Alexander Volkanovski only defended it 5 times. It is very disrespectful to Jose Aldo's legacy and his Hall of Fame career to not include him in the discussion about who the featherweight goat is...
Aldo is a close 2nd. Many of his defenses were against nobodies, and the 13 second ko too.
Both mcgregor and Holloway say Jose is the goat.
They've also both beat him.
@@lordcatz4826 'Nobodies'. They were the best of the time.
@@lordcatz4826I was just about to make that point. It is t about the number it’s about the quality of the number. Volk has defended against absolute best 😊
NOTHING for Whittaker and Costa?!? They must have gotten a heavy locker room bonus

To me, fight of the night was Rob vs Costa
Lot of disrespect for José Aldo. He is still the greatest featherweight. Seven title defenses, which are basically nine because he was the WEC champion before the merger. Aldo is 1, Volk is 2 and Holloway is 3 in the all-time featherweight rankings.
lost to max, lost to conor, lost to Volk....never fought a great fighter name his best win bruh??? volks loss to makhahchev 1 is better than all those victories for aldo
mended and frankie edgar are good wins but not enough make him goat
@@zaeynalamgir1384
Well, Volk lost to Topuria now, who's basically a no name fighter on paper, so mma math is pure nonsense. The people Aldo fought at the time were the best of the best at that time. He also dominated in the WEC which was the champion's league for BW and FW and the way he did it was beautiful. That double knee for example! Most people suffer from recency bias unfortunately. But everybody is entitled to their opinion and mine is that Aldo is still the best to have ever done it at FW.
Aldo stunk !!!
fair enough bro....but i think the level of competition volk has faced is levels above aldo....aldo stats wise is still the mannn but after he lost to many people in 145 he moved down to 135 and beat some good fighters which means he was not completely outta performance but just not as skilled as the next generation.
mind you tuporia will be in the talks of 145 goat in the future as he is only 27@@Guillermo_Carratero
How did nobody ask him about walking of Howies podcast
They did 6 mins in

@@karlmaddin6554 not with an interim belt I wouldn't think
Its not the interim. The champ is scared 😳. Tom is undisputed
Absolutely ridiculous Rob and Paulo didn’t get FOTN. That was the best fight on the card and it wasn’t even close.
If UFC 300 isn't a full on spartan event, I'll be seriously disappointed.
Fumbled the bag with ufc 300
UFC in Spain with Topuria as the main event is going to be amazing.
Happy that Wandy is inducted to the Hall of Fame
For the younger generation, Wandy was the man who put many eyes on the sport in the early days with his style (KO or KO'ed)
they outta up that 50k to 100k by now

Hahahahhahaha
Freudian slip question. Huge disappointment

The deflection tactics Dana uses is CRAZY when he's asked about Ian Garry @15:20

Gary not that good and I hate the welterweight division
Yeah cause garry was in the room lol, dana didn't want to hurt his feelings
@@jonesdager701 Gary just has good Kicks
Dana ‘I’m not even thinking about that right now’ White
The mma gods spared Whittaker in exchange for volk and Henry
Stooging Costa vs Whittaker on a FOTN is total bs.
Jones was right about the UFC scrambling to find a viable main event for 300. Literally the most underwhelming announcement ever. They could've booked Pereira-Aspinall for the interim HW title, but they settled with this instead...
aspinall would destroy alex thats a horrible matchup for a legend like peirera. aspinalls time is coming either way.
It's pretty silly to want that fight since Izzy knocked out Alex. Tom has far greater power than Izzy. If Tom lands a punch anywhere on Alex skull, he's dead. Hill vs Alex is much better. So long as hill actually shows up in shape and not fat.
👴🏻 OIL UP DANA 🇺🇸
How does merab not get a performance bonus 😢
Wasn't a bonus type performance IMO, but he is relentless.
Hard to earn a performance wrestling against Cejudo, especially in a banger of a card.
That said, Merab is a savage n will be champ
Whittaker n Costa was a war worthy of a bonus
Multi billion dollar company still only giving 50k bonuses? Pathetic.
I'm glad Leon Edwards is getting his shine.
Lots of respect to all those fighters
Why is he bragging about highest grossing gate as if bending us over (figuratively) for a $500 ticket is a good thing?
Exactly.
No explanation for Amanda Lemos skipping her post fight interview??
Dana White - You cant take 3 years off in a combat sport.
Jon Jones and Connor McGregor have entered the chat.
Volk has been the champion for five years. He’s taking fights on short notice if he doesn’t give him a title rematch Dana White is fucked up! Volk looked good in the first round. It wasn’t like it was a blow away, he got caught. He didn’t look slow. He didn’t look old.
Let’s see Sugar vs Holloway! Striking clinic!!
Barlow looked great. I'm surprised he didn't get a Performance Bonus TBH.
As a football fan (soccer for the americans) seeing UFC fights happen in the Bernabéu would be an absolute dream come true
Now that I know that he walked out with Zuckerberg I’m very happy he lost.

Underrated comment. This is priceless. If this was true, it would only elevate his level of greatness to a level I wasn't aware could be achieved.
Aspinal vs Pereira I would have been content with. Its not the mega fight he promised, but would have been interesting to see Alex go after that 3rd belt. I won't believe Dana's lies nevermore
Fighter bonus needs to be higher like button…
Dana seems to like the post fight presser. The words “let see how this thing plays out” and “big strong durable guy”. The fact that he calls these men “kids” is amazing

If he doesn’t give Volk a rematch after having the division on lock for 4 years I don’t know what to say. He gave Izzy and Usman immediate rematches and there’s no one else at 145
I get what your saying too but he just had a rematch and got kod, defended his belt and got kod now you want him to get a rematch, and possibly get kod again? Three times in a row in the space of a year, let volk have some months off to rest and then get his rematch which he does deserve

Dana, you better give Volk the rematch that he absolutely deserves.
Volk needs a break after Back to Back KO losses, if they put him in a rematch right away, he getting slept even easier. Do the Izzy things; let Illa fight someone else and allow Volk to take as much time as he needs and come back to face whoever is champ when he's recovered.
