How can people not like this guy? He is so good, well spoken, respectful (until you disrespect him), the complete MMA fighter, confident and feet well grounded.
Nice to hear from the Champ Dricus. I like the way he always sticks to his demands and stands up for himself to NOT to be pulled or rushed into fighting before he's fully ready. Keep up that way. Greetings from Somalia
From the first bell, looking for that finish. That's it. There's no secret formula to making the exciting fighter. They want their finish and they go to work trying to get it. They take risks. They use their whole body, they are prepared to take hits - obviously they try to calculate what won't wobble them, not always successfully - they change their game plans, but that driving force to get at that other guy, and when they do get near him, unleash what they have made a point of working on - power, strength. And then you have the guys like Dricus who are also a submission threat, ready to grab every opportunity they can for that finish. All of the above means they may get caught, do get caught, but they aren't going down with a whimper. You got an exciting fight, you saw someone who not only wanted it, but went after it. And I like Dricus's personality. He's chatty. And he stands up for himself. He understands diplomacy, but the steel backbone is always there.
Even if they dont shout his name at the moment this man has massive support, love and respect in South Africa. From the same people that support the Springboks
This guys about to go on a Volk/Olivera type title rein. Dricus is insanely entertaining and will be doubted against every opponent until he proves them wrong
@@hillbillylizard2334 not in terms of greatness but the way Volk was hated on and called a paper champ by Holloway fans after beating him in the rematch is the same thing happening to Dricus. His fight style will definitely turn him in to a fan favorite soon enough though like what happened to Volk and Olivera
I like how DDP does interviews with lesser known channels and there not half assed 5 minutes either proper 30 to 40 minutes and the interviewer is more often than not knowledgeable and asks good questions Great work man
jc should fight costa next, imavov should fight izzy as a main event in paris for a shot at the title which will be a fun fight between the two, strickland gets his rematch with ddp during the meantime
Recently started following you, one of the only real MMA accounts, every other account is posting nonsense about Dillon Dannis every week they are literally bot accounts ran by the same guy. Thank you for what you’re doing I know I could not grind the way you do, takes a serious amount of work. This is a huge interview hopefully you see some more growth. God willing. Have a great day👊🏼
@@FightWave if not soon it will come in time my brother that is for sure! You are growing really fast on Instagram it’s just about brining them over here. It will end up being the most random fighter that you didn’t think would do crazy reaction. It’s about getting the clips off the videos onto Instagram. I’ve only just subbed to the TH-cam but more will be coming for sure!
How doesn’t Whittaker get another title shot if he beats Chimaev??!! No one has wanted to fight Chimaev for a reason. And how dare this guy not put some respect on Whittakers name! #stayhumble
I thought he lost. Watch Izzy beat him then rematch Strickland then Strickland wins then rematches Ddp then wins and rematches him for best of three. Middleweight is dead.
Literally gets the shit kicked out of him put in the hospital. Takes months to recover. And Strickland is snow boarding two days later. Gets an eye cut from a head but. And still beats the shit out of him. What’s wrong with America.
What's wrong with people that to make an argument, have to rely on fiction. When you need to do that, says your POV is just wrong. And we saw SS in the snow... where was the footage of him going hard at the snowboarding? What's wrong with whiny Strickland fans that they have footage before them and haven't got a clue what they are looking at?
After Sean’s last fight it’s obvious there’s bias against him amongst the judges. If it was any other champ they would’ve gave the fight to champ against DDP, he won 3 rounds and had wayyyyy more significant strikes than him(just look at DDP post fight). The fight was close, but not enough to warrant Sean losing the belt.
Strickland fans are still crying. Strickland threw one or two kicks, so he didn't kick the shit out of anyone. Dricus threw plenty of kicks and some hit the elbow of his injured foot. Strickland had three cuts... One on his left eye, one on his right and the other on his head... And no, the so-called headbutt was a cut caused by a punch at the 4:30 mark of round 4. Strickland did need to go to hospital... To get stitches. Keep on crying, lads 😂
@@matsutendaiHe lost bc judges suck and have a bias against him. That judge that scored Costa 4-1 against Sean should make it clear there’s bias against him.
@@matsutendai Are you joking or are you genuinely that impaired? One judge scored it 49-46 Costa, and had it 4-1 Costa.😂 It was a bs split decision win
@@matsutendai Also it’s not that which makes it clear there’s some level of bias against Sean. Sean at the very least won 3 rounds against DDP, and had wayyyy more sig strikes. DDP besides the headbutt and getting a double leg didn’t do nearly enough to warrant a belt. It’s an unwritten rule that the champ keeps the belt if that match is close, but even then Sean won 3/5 rounds. Most ppl have it 3-2 Sean including Dana
Turned down 300 and thinks he's going to get any say in who he fights 😂 these guys are delusional win a belt and all of a sudden I've got injuries and I want to fight this person on this date lol clowns 🤡 trying to turn mma into boxing
No one in the UFC gets to decide who they fight next, the UFC has their matchmakers and it's based on who's pulling the most ppv's, not fighter callouts.

@@kit12790 I just watched the interview and he pronounced it correctly, and the name also perfect.
@@kit12790 cope more yo, all humans make mistakes, you would fuck it up too lol
As a South African I am incredibly proud of this man, he is the perfect embodiment of everything this wonderful country stands for🇿🇦❤️
He's such a charmer ❤😊
Do you all kiss men and grope each others dongs?
wonderful country? it's collapsing
He is the worst champion so far in terms of performance …. Sloppiest victory I’ve seen so far, and most thought Sean won it
How can people not like this guy? He is so good, well spoken, respectful (until you disrespect him), the complete MMA fighter, confident and feet well grounded.
Couldn't be more proud of Dricus as a fellow South African he carries our flag with pride and proves that us South African's don't give up
Nice to hear from the Champ Dricus.
I like the way he always sticks to his demands and stands up for himself to NOT to be pulled or rushed into fighting before he's fully ready. Keep up that way.

Always good to listen to DDP, very well spoken. Great questions as always 🌊🌊🌊
Our African King 👑
Nice DDP!!!
Ufc champ❤️✊🏾

He is nothing like Volk he may be good but NOTHING like Volk he arguably lost against Strickland

Oliveira? He was a champ for like two fights

How the hell did you get DDP on your channel????

Closet champ 😅.
Bro bring islam makhachev to your interview this will help you to boost your channel, btw you're doing good 👍🏽
dricus is pretty much soley responsible for guru's ego blowing insanely out of proportion smh
I believe he will take adesanya down and submit/TKO him within 3 rounds

Dricus, be the 1st man to admit you lost, the whole world knows, big money

Ok fine. Snow boarding might be a gay weak argument. Bro. Look at his face. Beside being black and blue. You can see it in his eyes.

Strickland won

He lost the fight with his dignity and gained the most pathetic fans in mma
Rumour has it that Strickland is still walking backwards on his heels...
