Talking about barry and no image or mention of rose until the exact moment he says “one weakness” was perfect 😂😂
It pans purposefully😂 i came to comment on the same thing
Bro, that was some top-tier editing there
"One weakness... Minors" 😂
Ha, beat me to it.
🧑🍳💋
Cody's win against Dom was one of the most impressive performances I've ever seen- it's a shame he wasn't able to sustain that
That was my own personal "Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the Machida era".
That Cody that beat Dom that night was the best bantamweight we've ever seen.
@@samuelstephens9921 The TJ Dillashaw who destroyed Renan Barao (twice) is the only other example I can think of that comes close. And that's in a division with a lot of greats, like Dom himself.
For 25 minutes Cody was the best fighter in the entire world
@@n3rdstuffzand not a minute longer
I think Houston's bare knuckle run right now is even more impressive because he's 51 years old.
That's fucking wild had no idea his career found new life in bkb until now
Yeah I could care less about the fact that he's juicing. He's 51, OBVIOUSLY he's enhanced. Still wildly impressive.
@@187btokes I think PEDs are so far spread in any high level physical sport that no one really cares. The people that do are usually the person or the fans of a person that lost and the winner got caught with PEDs. Personally I'd like to see honor held in higher regard but what can you do?
@@84SuperBeast They just need to do it like weightlifting does. Have leagues that ban juicing and ones that don't, then everyone is happy.
@@LordofTheFallen Last I knew people were still trying to cheat in the non juicing weightlifting. It's a competitive thing. People will always cut any corner they can to get a competitive edge.
Surprised Andrei Arlovski isnt on the list. He was the first guy to knock out Roy Nelson and has a lethal right hand, but he's been knocked out almost as much as he's knocked people out.
Man I always think about when he got knocked out by tim sylvia. Like it looked like it barely grazed him
Probably because he hasn't been a cannon for almost 10 years. Pretty sure his last finish was over Browne
10 years ago I would've agreed, but he adjusted well and stayed relevant.
Yeah but recently all his wins have been Decisions, he started to fight smartly that's why he's still able to compete at that age
I think Phil hawes is an honorable mention. Bro has great offense but everytime he loses its a devastating knock out.
Yeah dude. It's shame. No chin at all
@@spearpig1034 Exacerbated by awful defense as well.
@@madgavin7568 Especially saw this in his last fight. The dude threw the same shot like 4 times, basically telegraphing what he was gonna do. And when his opponent found the opening, it was lights out for him.
Great example. I love watching when his striking gets going it’s so good. But once he gets caught it’s just game over
Top 10 Most influential fighters for a single country
Good idea
Nice!
Most influential flight from every single country
In no particular order
GSP
Michael bisping
Francis ngannou
Dricus du plessis
Marvin vettori
Joanna
Khabib
Valentina shevchenko
Alexander Gustafson
Zhang welli
Korean zombie
Israel adesanya
Ooh I like this
Should do a video on the opposite of this. Guys who could take whatever you could give but didn’t have much power. Guys like Edgar, the Diaz brothers, Vettori and Cruz.
Ahh so an airsoft cannon
Max holloway, marvin vettori.
Steel water guns
Titanium pistols
Nick had power, Nate did not
Nick had average to weak power I'd say, cardio toughness and skills are his best traits
3:35
"Pat had a weakness"
Cut to him grooming Rose. Lmao.
Glad I wasn't the only one who saw that 😂
@9:30 "Allistar demolishing people."
Alistar slowly turns his head to a blonde girl with a smirk. 😏
Yep I knew Melvin Manhoef would be on there. I remember watching him knock Mark Hunt and Ruslan Karaev out in about 30 seconds - terrifying! I also remember watching him absolutely destroy Robbie Lawler. Right up until he got sparked out that is. Those fights were a long time ago now tbh I’m thinking 2008/9 or something, but obviously he’s still fighting now.
He just retired recently. Impressively long career
@@Bouldergoat ah ok thanks I didn’t realise he’d retired, I think I saw he lost to Yoel Romero fairly recently. Yes an impressively long career he was a very exciting fighter to watch - all action style kill or be killed. Man, It’s made me realise how much I miss those K-1 days that was my favourite thing back then the K-1 Dynamite New Years Eve show and the K-1 World GP.
He kept throwing the SAME Exact inside leg kick at Lawler, probably a dozen times, until Robbie finally lined up an overhand right just before Melvin threw the exact same kick again. It was definitely in strikeforce but I forget the year, and don’t feel like looking it up.
He retires tomorrow guys! Final fight against Niko Price
Dude lawler knocked him the fuck out
I love that you guys included the street sharks and Vin.
Tend to disagree with the Brock Lesnar because he didn't get starched when he lost. He lost by TKO's, not KOs.
Should’ve been switched with marlon moraes
I don't think this list is about straight kos. Brock broke under pressure, like glass.
@@MistaTofMaineI still say if the money was right and Brock trained for mma right out of college he could have been one of the best
@acecool72 if your aunt had balls she'd be your uncle. Brock is one of the biggest glass cannons in the industry. He has no defense at all. Like none...
@@MistaTofMaineStill the only dudes that TKO’d him were a prime Valasquez and Overeem when he was on all the “horse meat”, and right before that he survived a war with Shane Carwin who is a murderous puncher, not really comparable to the other guys on the list.
I was expecting Johnny Walker on here somewhere, but amazing video nonetheless
same here
These videos never cease to amaze me
Always nice to see Paul Buentello in one of the highlights. I'll never forgot after a victory in the UFC when he grabbed the mic and said half his catch phrase before having the crowd finish it and it literally was complete silence lol
Dont fear me----cmon people!!!
Always grateful for the content from the crew! Keep pumping it out and I'll keep showing up to support you lads. Love you maniacs!
How was The Reem able to tank Mark Hunt's bombs? That fight was confusing.
He saw the punches coming and wasn't out of position. Helps he had a size advantage over Hunt.
because the punch that you don't see coming is the one that will hurt you the most. Mark Hunt is a heavy hitter but he's not a sniper, most of Overeem's losses are due to him bring reckless and letting his guard down and it's not about his chin. I will always say that there's no such a thing as a glass chin in the heavyweight division because one single shot could knock anyone's lights out, only a matter of time. Overeem isn't exactly a glass chin, he's just reckless.
@@madgavin7568 Reem still took some good shots from Hunt that SHOULD, from previous viewing experience, have set him on his ass. It was weird.
@@AngryJT What the other guy said.
Feel bad for duffee, nearly permanently lost all feeling on half his body and fought 6 months later
How was johnny walker not on this list, hes the first person that comes to mind when I think glass cannons
This is a very fair comment. Ever see anyone else do the worm while standing up?
As much as I love Johnny Walker, I agree
maybe not enough fights yet? but yah- he has some great offense, but shit for a chin, and hes reckless
Do the opposite, dudes that can take a punch but can’t knock anybody out
Max Holloway and Belal Muhammed in a neck and neck race for number 1 (Max can hit you 400 times in 25 minutes and not finish you but Belal couldn't finish a dude with one arm over 5 rounds.
@@finalsorrowsspillow hands colby too
Vettori for sure
Chael sonnen maybe? He took punches off rampage Jackson, Fedor, Anderson Silva,Brian stan,Mike bisping ,wanderlei Silva, and he never really got hurt from strikes
What would you call them? Granite peashooters? 😂
Multiple Burn After Reading clips? Why, yes! Thank you! Send the editor my love and gratitude
Greg hardys nfl accomplishments weren’t the reason he got into the ufc. Dana was a fan of the work he did at home lmao
Dude, what's your age? Answer: Sav-age! lol
Calling Brock a glass cannon is kinda BS considering he was the only dude to get past one round with Shane Carwin. Yeah he wasn't defending well but he was absolutely not knocked out. He had an iron chin just with bad defense lol
Good chin, bad defence and didn't like being touched.
@@RRJH4201 When he was pressured non stop he got finished, he for sure had an alright chin, but let's be honest, he definitely was a glass cannon. He was really good going forward, but once people found the opening, brock just kinda covered up and didn't do much.
@@Mmarules no argument here lads.
He had a fragile mid section due to diverticulitis tho
Nice work, great job!
I've been a huge fan and supporter of t this channel since the beginning
Needed this one today
Imagine an 8 man, one night tourney with whichever 8 of these guys you want
I love the lil outro, i want more of this
How did Michael Johnson avoid this list?
Can we get a vid on the jarred cannonier type guys that’s have fought and won in crazy weight jumps. Like Anthony Johnson going from welterweight to heavyweight and lorenz Larkin basically doing the opposite. I’m sure y’all could find more but that’s some good content right there
I think you missed 2 of the top 3. Mike Pyle. Good striker and submission guy who would often lose by KO or submission. It’s not often someone is good enough to submit good people and throw subs in high level people only to find a way to get tapped out. How you can get so good offensively and not learn to defend as good is odd in grappling.
The other was Andre Arlovski.
Mike Pyles mullet should be in the UFC hall of fame
Really good list!
I'm a bit surprised to see Brock on the list in some ways. Fair points about his def and stuff, you're right. But he took a ton of dmg from Carwin and still won. Again you're spot on, it could have been stopped w Brock losing. But for me a glass cannon has super low hp or def stats or can't take a shot. Saying he had no defense in terms of technique or in a different way is fair. I feel Brock showed a lot of toughness and took a ton of shots against Carwin. It's prob nitpicking from me tbh.. Just in that sense it's tough for me to see Brock as a glass cannon but just imo. More like super aggressive and defensively irresponsible but tough ah lol.. The examples of Duffy and Soukoudjou and others all really resonated w me. Cody too is a good example for me.
That camera pan from Pat Barry to young Rose Namajunes while talking about Barry's weaknesses at 3:36... chef's kiss
Idea for a video. A ‘chain’ of finishes. A gets beat by B, b gets beat by C, c gets beat by D. Etc etc Love to see how long a chain could be made.
Great video
I love how they don't mention that TJ was doping super hard in their fights. That was the start of Cody's downfall and it's understandable, he had TJ knocked out and that EPO helped TJ stay in the fight. I agree that Cody is near a glass cannon but I don't think he deserves to be on the list, at most he's an honerable mention.
Yes, he clearly deserves to be on the list. He got a glass jaw...
He has the softest chin of them all. I kinda think Melvin shouldnt be on it, six knockouts is a lot but the man has had a buttload of fights
Jimi talking s**t in the clinch before throwing knees is peak schoolyard bully
Expected to see Johnny walker here
He isn’t even a canon though. He’s just a bum with a terrible chin
Bayliun, finally!!! I was about to give up on finding a non-Tommy video...thank goodness!!
congrats on 100k
I don't know why but "right hand roundhouse punch" had me dying 😂😂
Honestly imo Charles olivera is the most prolific glass cannon, not in the sense that he isn't durable, he can obviously take a hit while a lot of these guys just fold immediately, but in the sense that he has the most dangerous offense in any fighter while still having incredibly bad striking defense. I mean he can check leg kicks amazingly but he is extremely hittable in the face. He's kind of a glass canon of the most elite order, one that can beat any fighter no matter how good if they get caught on the feet or ground but also one who can get caught easily and pay for it
He is also like the only jiu jitsu glass cannon in history, has the most submission wins in the ufc but also lost by submission lot of times
@@josip342 He has 10/10 submission offense, but like 5/10 submission defense.
The thing is though he's fighting guys with alot of power. Dariush wasn't able to hit him at all which surprised me but that's because Charles was more patient.
I dont think he would get hit as much if his eyesight was better
@@TheAbomb From what I know Islam fight was the first fight post eye surgery where his vision supposedly got a lot better, unfortunately was pretty hittable in there too. He can lack head movement
11:49 bro those hammer punches had me dead😂
More video game analogous fighter videos plz. Excellent vid :]👍
Melvin's fight with Robbie Lawler was nuts. Robbie was so compromised by those leg kicks Melvin was just teeing off...until he wasnt anymore. And thank goodness Cody's team on the ultimate fighter stopped him from "doing something about it", especially against that version, or any version of Conor. He'd have gotten knocked out defending someone who would eventually be knocking him out...twice.
Luke.. I love your 80s mullet-hear!!!
MMA (Editing) ON POINT
B. You’ve been killing it lately brother. Keep it up! 💪
You should also do Top 10 Titanium Waterguns (credit to GURU)
funniest thumbnail.... he looks so happy and silly
Always love the content but seeing Luke make my finger smash the like button
Legit downloading Dark Souls 3 after watching another Majin Joe achievement hunter video & I beat Gywn in Dark Souls 1 as a glass canon literally killing myself with power within (a pyromancy the cause you to do more damage but lose health over time) as I killed him and it counted btw. So I could not relate to this intro more. Also Volt Tackle Pikachu with light ball is also a baller glass canon. Love this channel, cheers mate.
The editing in these videos is so good lol. The Pat Barry "Weakness" and the Overreem "demolishing" edits were sharp. Well done boys
Never heard this term but it’s amazing
Niceeeee viddd🔥🔥🔥🔥
Cody is what happens when you only level your vigor to 20. You at least need 45 to not get one shotted by higher level enemies.
That vin diesel clip was golden 😂😭
that "fuck off" the luke taylors best contribution to this channel in its entire history
Glass cannons are always awesome. Whether MMA or games
I have to say , i like the street sharks reference, now i need one for extreme dinosaurs.
3:02 best moment in the video so far. Horrible punching form rewarded with a horrific Knockout 😂😂 Greg hardy was a dumpster fire.
i was elated when bam bam folded him
He's still a dumpster fire lol
Vin Diesel doing Street Sharks commercials. Loved that cartoon.
I remember Todd Duffee. When he first came to the UFC, I was like damn ! This guy was as big as Brock Lesnar. But he had the weakest of chins. I guess the big strong guys hardly get punched so they are not used to it. Just see the way Brock reacts every time he gets hit, whether to the face or body.
I'd like to see one on glass cannon grapplers. Guys who are great at tapping or using effective ground and pound but get tapped a lot themselves.
Charles is #1 on that list
Chiesa
Great idea for a video
I like that Houston Alexander's head is so tall that it constantly goes out of frame.
I love you showed Elden ring clips. Cause if you know what a glass canon is…you’ve def seen em in ER 🤣
It was a lot easier to parse out glass cannon from walk-into-danger fighters. Immediately thought of Charles but in reality he just eats one to give two. Same with Dustin. People have questioned both their chins but they aren’t getting dropped by jabs. And 8/10 they are the ones dishing out the damage.
Marlon Moraes belongs here, possibly at #1. His KO loss streak is legendary
If the Reem didn't get KO'd in the last second of his fight against Rozenstruik; he would have had another title shot.
Michael Johnson should be an honorable mention
What you said at the end about loving glass cannons is 100% true imo. Most people will take them over guys who fight through attrition.
Speaking of video games, it's why I hated the introduction of resilience to WoW. I would rather be PoM pyro'd in the face 5000 fucking times for more HP than my character even has than play 1 more 30 minute arena match.
Seeing Vin Diesel play with street sharks made my day lol
It’s most likely not realistic but I would really like to see a Cody redemption arc
I’ve been hoping for this since his loss to dillashaw. I think it’s just mental with him but not having a chin doesn’t help.
He’s one of the most raw talented fighters I’ve seen fight just with his athleticism and power it’s such a shame
Poor Cody knew he’d be on this list
No shit... he's literally on the thumbnail🤦♂️
@@cosmicbilly Thumbs up captain obvious
“Demolishing people” slow mo of overeem and that blonde looking at each other 😂
The thwomp noise is killing me lmao
Glass canons are great and all... But I bet Al Iaquinta could sell a glass house to a rock slinging caveman.
Putting Lesnar in here is a bit unfair as he was never knocked out cold, the rest couldnt take a punch while he just hated getting hit
Lesnar also wasn’t a knock out artist, he clipped Randy Couture once FFS
A better fit would’ve been Andre Arlovski
Yeah I thought Brock was way out of place. He took a beating from Shane and Cain and never went out.
And if you get kicked in the liver by a K-1 Grand Prix champion you're going down, I don't care who you are.
@@Rando1975and that was after he had a surgery for his dialysis, which is already incredibly painful by itself.
To be fair, the list was created for "glass cannons" not glass jaws. While he wasn't knocked out, Brock broke down the moment any huge hits landed. It's actually rare seeing a guy flop around after taking a huge punch, the only other time I can think of where a fighter responded to hits in a similar fashion is Bob Sapp. You could see the pain in Brocks body language and reactions every time a powerful punch landed on him. You don't see that very often at the top of the divisions in MMA. someone who clearly can't handle taking damage.
While we could argue that he could take the damage considering he wasn't knocked out, it's mostly to do with his reaction and body language during those moments. I'm a Lesnar fan, thought it was amazing what he was accomplishing in the UFC but he clearly hated being punched. His body rejected it entirely. lol Either way, he's still one of the most exciting fighters to grace the octagon and his ppv views reflect that.
Pereieras left hook is the definition of a glass canyon
Houston Alexander came to my gym for a "seminar" . That seminar consisted of him teaching my team very outdated blast double techniques (grab the quads and put your forehead in his chest),, and then everybody stood around the boxing ring and everyone sparred him for one minute each..... I think he just got paid to have a private workout Lmaoo
As the old man of the group, I didn’t understand a single video game reference, but B is the man! Now I have a new phrase I can use - “he’s a glass cannon!” Cheers 🍻 from the only guy here who stopped playing video games back when the original XBox and PlayStation2 were the best consoles. Aren’t there like 52! PlayStations and Xboxes now? Anyways. Now no one will read this bc it’s too damn long! Enjoy UFC 290 fellow fight fans 🥋👊🏻
Was that, was that Vin Diesel playing with street sharks????? 😂😂😂😂😂
Burn after reading is a great movie. Top choice!
My personal nominee would have been Melvin "The Young Assassin" Guillard.
The guy's overhand right could sleep a Mastodon. But he had no cardio, even less ground game, and a glass jaw.
Straight jabs would knock that guy senseless.
pat barry era was a crazy ride. i so wanted to see him keep winning so we could have got jds vs barry. that fight would have been insane!!
Can u make a vid of “top 10 cpt americas of mma”? Basically fighters that embody the American stereotypes, Colby, Don Frye, and possibly wonder boy
Couture (obviously), Lesnar, Severn, Liddell, Hughes, Penn, Franklin, Abbott, etc.
Dude, watching Mark Hunt getting KOd by one punch is UNREAL.
That was a great Vin Diesel commercial.
Speed is everything. In 60 seconds, I throw 129 punches. Yeah.
10:45, is that vin Diesel or am I just too drunk lol
Johny Walker and Luke Rockhold should be on this list.
cannae get more fightfront/mma on point video game challenges?
Pat Barry, like all bosses, had a weakness **_proceeds to pan in on Rose Namajunas_**
Good night Irene!!!!!!! My favorite commentator
"Take a steam train put a face on it"
Glass canons are fun to watch because they either knock someone out or get themselves knockout
Best defense is more offense -The real Karate kid Johnny Lawrence
If these guys are glass cannons then that makes Max Holloway a titanium water pistol
Wtf was that Vin Diesel playing with Sharks?! Lol
