Who should Islam & Merab fight next?
Kron and Shamil open weight
Sean o malley or yan and Islam should fight Arman
Islam vs Winner Dricus Strickland or Winner Belal Shavkat.
Thats what i think more make sense
Hear me out..
Merab & Topuria VS Islam & Umar
In an MMA Tagteam match
Merab v Umar 2. Umar was 🤏🏻
Izzy calling that slip in real time was LIQUID
He's a professional athlete of course, i saw that too.
@@michael-c1i3c Everyone said it was a knockdown. actually it was just a slip.
@@NerdyDictator i mean it was an obvious slip he literally landed on islam's armpit
We all saw it was a slip
@@kigenmusa6013everyone except Islam haters of course
Izzy should be a commentator as all of them perceived Islam’s slip as a knockdown.
iirc on the broadcast they said their seating position they can just see his back, so they couldn't tell if the punch landed clean or not.
I was gonna say pretty much what the other guy did, when your sitting cageside looking up it’s a completely different perspective then what we see at home
@@ryanhowes6075 Just like when khabib was smashing Conor’s face and the commentators were perceiving it as if Conor was gassing out Khabib with his face.
they literally said it was a slip on the broadcast
@@itsthecponz Not at first.
Merab is called the machine for a reason. Cardio for days!
cardio for days, weeks, months...

You forgot that he also has steroids for days
Qaa
@ make up more fairy tales and cope more🤣
Great first PPV of the year
It was awesome. Just a pity, Merab had a weak ass opponent.
@@dewalddewet759u mean islam had weak opponent lol
@ And Merab. Merab's opponent is a weak little entitled brat Karen.
@@dewalddewet759merab with his failed takedowns downs and cant finish anyone 😂😂 such a boring champion
@dopestuff1714 OK if you think so. I am bored with you now. Please stop replying to me.
I never seen a fighter having as much fun as merab. His goofy ass antics, his emoting in the octagon. Dude is such a beast lol love that guy
Izzy you should be commentator man, you are so good in analytic of each fight...
They use to put fighters on commentary during a potential match up back in the day. They should bring that back
He's still active as a fighter.
He’s fighting in 2 weeks bro
He could replace Joe Rogan or DC.
@@petertang2611 soon, there won’t be enough space in the commentator’s table. It’ll just be dc.
I thought Jiri & Jamal would have got fight of the night but after watching Merab & Umar, damn that was some good action
You think so??
Umar was hurt ... it was obvious Merab pwned him
I didn’t think that fight was that impressive tbh , I knew Merab wouldn’t get tired and Umar did pretty good but Merab has one of the craziest gas tanks ever 💯
@@enrique-himerab was to so what?
@enrique-hi he got hurt during the fight where as merab came in with an injury. But go ahead keep making excuses for the little dags💀
@@3xHotshotmerab posted no proof lmao , umar did
KOing strikers and submitting the grapplers. Islam beats everyone at their own game. A true GOAT
He's should move up to 170
@@stevep4236not much left at 155 except arman, after that i think he just might
Moicano beat him on feet. He had no choice but to wrestle. Maicano is a natural feather weight by the way.
@@gumogumonopistol7491yeah
@@gumogumonopistol7491oh yea i forgot lighter man skill
Merab's cardio needs to be investigated 😮
Let me guess youre a more plates more dates fun...ya roids fan 😁
There is no such thing as talent ...its hard work and dedication...only fun boys belive in talent 😂
@iSRS28-ov3ps shut up man
@iSRS28-ov3psWhat?..
Merabs cardio comes from him jumping around peoples heads living rent free as a "boring" fighter.
Those Russian and Georgian fighters are on another level. Training in the heart of nature truly shapes them into exceptional athletes. I love it-it’s that connection to the environment, combined with hard work and unwavering discipline, that makes them absolute beasts in the sport.
Don't say russians and georgian...they are all from the Caucasus region, and all of them are caucasians. Just mountain guys))0
@@chechen_nokhcho к сожалению они не знают в чём разница
Georgian fighters are better
@ да, для них национальность зависит от страны))
ive never seen izzy this awake during a ppv
Bro has a gum an everything
He is a true fan.
Islam at this point main mission is checking black belts in the ufc 😂
Umar put up a good fights he'll comeback
Hats off to Merab and islam. What a pace from merab unbelievable
The irony of izzy telling jiri to zest it up 😂😂😂
I was rooting for Umar and ended up celebrating Merab. He really is the man.
Jiri came out in the T-Rex 🦖 😂
Merab vs Umar could be fight of the year. Both were amazing.
Lol hell nah
Merab is a Gladiator 100%
CEO of EPO
Cant believe how good Islam is man. Gets in and gets out so fast
10:45 yoo izzy you sharp as fck.. most people taught it landed
His sight sharpness is beyond imagination bro I saw him training with Laser and man the guy has great vision
Fighters of Izzy's style have sharp eyes and fast processing speed
I thought it was pretty obvious he slipped 🤷🏽♂️
I mean, he's UFC fighter still, c'mon bro
it was a clear slip, fans just get hyped for no reason.
Takedown in front of khabib was crazy 😳
Umar is not kaibib
@@uncommonchannel3864 takedown in front of KHABIB who was coaching. You donkey
@@uncommonchannel3864
Khabib is overrated 🗑
@@Mojorising1328khabib is definitely not overrated, he’s rated fairly, one of the best LW but not the best simply because his resume isn’t long enough, but we all know he had the talent to be the best
When khabib used to win his father and coach were praised......when islam wins khabib and javier are praised.....so if Umar lose of course khabib and coach are gonna get called.....its common @@uncommonchannel3864
The overwhelming majority of “fans” called Merab vs Nurmagomedov “bOrInG”. That was an incredible fight.
I don't think "ANYONE" called that fight boring, let alone "majority" or "fans", not even the "casuals"
@ 😂 don’t use Facebook much, do you? There were even people calling for Merab to never co-main another fight like a bunch of glue sniffers.
@ that’s cute though, dealing in absolutes like an amateur. You know with that logic a single person saying it was boring shatters your argument, right?
@@Chris-lk9ug I don't use facebook
@@Chris-lk9ug a single person saying it was boring might have exactly what happened and it shatters your argument not mine because you said "majority" or the fans said it was boring.
4:09 zest recognize zest
😂😂😂
😂
I don’t get it can you explain
@@Exploreraddzesty means gay and Izzy can be a lil gay sometimes
@@ExploreraddZiri's pose looks feminine and izzy recognized that so he is joking that they both are zesty meaning feminine
I knew Merab would do well but man, he actually put on an entertaining performance. Well done. U could tell he was really having fun in there. I love when his personality comes out & he shines vs the whining he tends to do. Best way to shine is doing exactly what he did vs Umar. He's funny & absolutely a machine.
Merab is Really Really “The Machine”😂❤❤ Love it
Merab is great for that division. He will inspire more fighters for that division to come up. Great for MMA.
I don't think anyone in his division can beat him
@@sRvDj i meantime is not his friend. he should get as many fightsas possible.
Izzy’s eyes lighting up at Merab is amazing.
11:09 Izzy knew🤣
Everyone knew
Damn good imitation of Jiri saying "I'm coming". Love Jiri. He's a character.
Thx adesanya for commenting merabs fight…❤ you’re Best.
Bro that dinosaur pose by Jiri 4:06 before the fight started was too funny. Legit paused as I saw it then burst out laughing the same time they did
Cheers to Moicano for not avoiding a challenging fight! I'm hopeful he got an increase in pay for the change of plans. I was bummed that Payton Talbott lost, but I was glad to see Raoni Barcelos get the respect he deserved, and I'm sure the fight will help Talbott figure out what he needs to work on. And maybe spend less time skateboarding.
Moicano got paid his regular show and win he’s a moron
Reindeer is a beast. 😂

Izzy: “I like Jiri’s footwork man!”
Jiri: 6:04
Mario 😂
I wish you would've reacted to this along with Rob, loved the breakdown video. Great video as always!
when you know you know THE MACHINE🔥
Man Jiri leveled up, his headmovement was insane, so goddamn smooth!
Merab is the most fun fighert to watch nowadays. WHAT A MACHINE!
Good luck to you in the Imavov fight, we hope you come back and win, a rematch with the loser of the Sean vs. Dricus fight would make sense later.
Amazing camera angles...great work guys keep it up
That little Mario coin effect didn't go unnoticed at 6:09, good job to the editor
Solid reaction video Izzy! UFC 311 was epic, amazing wins by Islam, Jiri and Merab. Great start to 2025 for UFC.
You’re up next Izzy, best of luck against at Imavov at UFC Saudi Arabia. 👏👏👏👏👏
Just for the record I wanna see Merab vs Figgy, I know Figgy lost his last one but still he was a flyweight Champ, that would be another Champ in Merabs resume... and Merab pretty much cleared the division... would be fun fight
Nah figgy lost his last fight.
Islam vs Moicano fight literally shows why there is ranking in all categories...😶🌫️
Thank your for including the bridge which i can copy now ;)
It was a great card 🔥
Great 1st PPV, Greater reaction video
How great was the Merab fight absolute cinema couldn't of asked for more from the champ. He absolutely schooled him.
WOW! Amazing project just saw the road map. I am in it for the presale 🌟🌟
I’m sure there are a lot of logistics and nuances to work through, but the UFC should consider having the next-in-line contenders fight on the same card as the champion if they can’t have a backup fighter for every title fight.
Two of Islam’s defenses have now been short-notice fights (plus the short-notice fight earlier with Bobby Green). This is hurting his legacy, but it’s also robbing MMA fans of seeing him pushed by the next best guy while he’s at his peak. Double respect to fighters accepting short-notice fights, but they haven’t prepared for the champ and most likely won’t be able to give him their best.
Champs won’t be around forever. If we want to see their greatness, they deserve to be pushed by the best possible contender. Most champs only fight two or three times a year max-we deserve to see them fight the next best guy. Reschedule if needed.
But when the next best pull you can not do a shit. UFC is a big business not a fun platform😂
Against Islam, RDA-Dariush-Olives-Arman all pulled out once. The UFC not going to pay the backups for every championship fight, usually they are not needed. It's just the Machachev curse.
he didnt prepare for them either and STILL WON lmao if the fight doesnt go into the later rounds being short notice doesnt matter as much
Nice reaction ❤ Merab the machine 🦾👑♥️🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪
Umar thought the referee raised his hand? 😂😂😂 Anyone noticed that
Yeah 😂😂😂😂
I would think that to if I outstruck my opponent in 3 rounds and outdamaged him, and in first 3rounds outgrappled him 😂
8:48 i love the way he just do that in front of khabib face and team lmao
I miss seeing izzy out there man. When you’re hungry you’re unbeatable. Look what you did to Alex in your last meeting. No way Strickland or DDP better than you. I can’t be convinced of that.
100%
I swear man izzys team and everyone is always a vibe. I wish i can find a dope clan like that. Was a pretty good card
Umar cardio was affected by his broken hand 😅😅
Lmao yes
I ended up celebrating Merab even though I was cheering for Umar. He's the real deal.
hi Adesanya you are my favorite fighter and I want to be like you because your the same style of fighting as me and I am 12 years old and I hope I would be in the UFC like you and be the new stylebender.
I wish you all the best Young king 🤴🏾
You will be successful
Good luck little man 🫡 keep at it you'll do great things one day.
Thanks you
Jiri’s head movement was impressive. Glad to see he’s added that to his skill set.
How is a 47-48 performance while you are the only one that bled dominant? Showboating is meaningless
Say you’re a casual without saying you’re a casual
Islam makhachev ❤️
Jiri is strange and unique, but he is tough
Can't wait for Izzy's fight next weekend!
Don’t think it’s next weekend
When?
@@Sasuke-bakri the weekend after next
@@1Haaku Izzy vs who?
@@Sasuke-bakriImavov
Izzy really a fan of everyone in ufc u could tell dude really loves watching
Crazy that jiri and Jamahal were exchanging hay makers and survived each others best shots but it only took Alex one clean shot against each. Alex was watching his sons fight like you were with vettori and costa
I’m starting to think it’s plausible that Alex really did break that Ngannou punch power record cause his power is crazy.
@@jengofetlupa44think his bone density is crazy and technique is very efficient and precise
Makes you wonder just how fucking hard does Pereira punch, jiri and hill were sluggin, both landing and taking shots. Pereira and You are really two special entitites to me in mma, with your striking legacy. Only you figured him out, hes slaying all these light heavyweights now. He’s shining bright. Waiting on you now to shine again. Take your time, champ.🙏
Merab said he would humble Umar. He actually humbled team Khabib…
Really ?
Did he fight and win against makachev and khabib too ?
1 loss and your mouth sprewing hatred they had three fights that night 2 won still pretty good right
@@learnfirst2371 Absolutely. It’s a team war
@@waqashussain512they’re all overrated. You’re crying for your muslim brothers 😢
Kaan we love you so mutch man you are our pride Turkey and Cyprus ❤
a lot of people are very happy and celebrating because one of Nurmagomedov's has been defeated.
This is really weird. 😉
Some people hate other people's success!
Yeah they all got weirded out. Like an once in a lifetime experience for them to see one of them lose. That just shows how good they really are.
Big shoutout for mentioning X.AI50 and SUI. These two look like the future to me. Holding both tight!
0:35 I need friends like this
Put your energy into friends like this my guy 🫶
@@chrisbilton8342 facts
You can't have friends. No one likes you
Merab dominant fight? The guy only has one KO in his career and cannot finish an opponent. What domination are you talking about?
Yeah he just spammed takedown no damage at all.
Casual spotted😂
That’s khabibs whole career you don’t see anyone complaining
@@maul8384 Khabib have finish his opponent. Merab decision streak 😂
He made umar remember his father
Broke boy taco is so cool for new Zealand culture much love to the fam all the way from TGA
4:30 -What Adesanya says to his BF 😂
You often have gay male fantasies?
His dog 🐶 *
moicano got robbed
Rage bait 11/10 😂
And Umar won by knockout lol
Seen other comments about it already, but I just can't stress enough how insane it was from Izzy to INSTANTLY call that slip.
Adaxum presale bonus tiers are a great incentive for early supporters..huge potential here!
Been waiting all day for this one. Izzy's turn in 2 weeks🙌
I love these reviews. The music and company are chill. I’ll catch the next one with yall mates!
Dude Izzy, u need to be getting paid by the UFC to do desk work, analysis, or commentary bc ur great at it!!! Plus u bring a fun factor that the fans would love, appreciate the videos ✌️
Nice that you recognized the slip directly ;)
Jiri with the Death Sentence pose during intros 😂😂😂
Izzy your a king, from south africa love you
Merab made him humble 😅
merab walkout with rusty machine start moving and umar walking with cold ice around
cardio pressure vs technical well rounded fighter really delivered, man i want to see them rematch tbh than o malley rematch
Great card, main and co-main were crazy good.
Adaxum Defi and E-commerce combo is what sets it apart for me. Time to join the presale ASAP.
Merci bro 🔥😎
I love how as soon as Islams locks the submission everyone just accepts his victory
More vids with you and Bobby Knuckles plz! 🔥🔥🔥
Izzy's predicting ability is out of this world bro🤯
Merab Islam Jiri what a performance they put in looking forward to you win Izzy let’s go 🔥
Izzy immediately knew it was a slip !!!! He's the man
I enjoyed the reactions
Hearing an exceptional striking legend like Izzy calling out how sublime and slick Jiri's footwork and head movement are just affirms me as a seasoned observer to know I was saying the same things in that fight. To be fair, I think we all saw it..have to be blind not to avknowledge to adjustments and growth in Jiri's game displayed in that fight. 👊
Islam mackhacev best fighter in the world😊
Merabs jaw be rocking the whole time like he on niffy wiffy 😂
Oooooh Mario😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 killed me
Uff 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Merab is crazy he is the man😂😂
