@lilmanq7746 nah he was like that before it's just he never would speak about it. In some early embedded episodes he was going to church a lot I remember. His wife is very religious I think which also intensified his beliefs
one night i was randomly flipping channels and this fight was in the 2nd round. i was hooked until the end, and the ufc had a new fan from then on. iconic fight
MacDonald was never the same guy after this fight, this fight took many years off his career and the possibility of ever been world champion.. amazing fight though
@@TheRulersBack18agreed, Robbie was messed up bad, but Big John said Rory could’ve died because he was aspirating blood most of the fight which is terrifying
Robbie lawler is the most voilent fighter to ever walk this earth This man lives for war and chaos inside the octagon, him retiring with KO win is absolutely adamant to his amazing carrer
Why on Earth would you edit out the stare down between 4 and 5? And Rory all bloodied up staring across the octagon! Definitely one of the greatest fights ever

You can't categorize Mousasi and Rory together. They are totally different. Mousasi has a lot more accolades in MMA as opposed to what Rory achieved. I respect the hell out of Rory and always liked him, but I really don't think you can categorize him as a legend in the sport.
@@LMaximus904 Brother... Mousasi did more than that... You are not aware what he did in DREAM?? In addition. Look at Mousasi's level of opposition as well. Mousasi even has a win over Mark Hunt, who is two weight classes heavier than him. Also... Rory didn't have any kind of win streak in the elite of the sport as Mousasi did. Saying that Mousasi and Rory achieved the same is ridiculous lol.
@@PyroChamWhat?! Rory has wins against Demian Maia, Tyron Woodley, BJ Penn and Nate Diaz, he always faced top level competition and had many close fights against the best guys
Robbie Lawler's resurgence and eventual title win is one of my favorite comeback stories in MMA. He left the UFC and fought for smaller organizations before coming back to the UFC. Rory MacDonald was seen as the future and GSP's protege who would carry the torch
Both of these men showed what a warrior mentality is ! If I'm trying to show a non mma fan what this sport is about this is the first fight I show them!

I can clearly remember Firas Zahabi corner advice after round 3. "You're figuring him out, I want you to circle, breathe and finish him." Rory went for the finish, blew his whole gas tank at the start of the round 4 and after that it was a matter of time before Robbie hunts him down. Nobody ever talks about that corner mistake... 😁
This is forever and ever the greatest fight in any combat sport ever. Regardless of what was in stakes, even if this fight was a co-main event, it would still be the greatest fight of all time. Thank you forever to this great warriors 🙏🏽
I still remember the night I watched this fight and entire event with my dad. We were so nervous and excited. UFC 189 is one of the greatest events the UFC had ever had, overshadowed by Conor😢
I feel like an incentive for fighters on top of the normal bonuses could be to give them a portion of the money generated from official ufc TH-cam clips. Even if it's small, it would give people incentive to literally have a highlight reel finish.
This fight is forsure top 3 ufc fights of all time, both these dudes are the definition of warriors

of all time? you looking back from the end times? maybe you mean "so far?"
How I got my mom into mma lol
20:15 brooo why u gotta skip literally the coldest staredown of all time???
lol yeah probably the highlight of the whole fight! So good.
It's a crime.. Best part! Instead of all those fake arranged staredowns people acting tough for no reason, that was a real one!
@@dtudeski1 yea the stare-down was the best part of the fight...right....
No kidding! I was so bummed. How could they miss that
I went looking for it...😖
It makes no sense how they are smart enough to upload this fight but then dumb enough to skip the best part lol
Thanks for ruining it.
Holy shit they did!
wtf!
What’s the best part?
@@thebigdezshow8971
There is a stare-down between them at the end of round 4.
It's concentrated warrior spirit captured in a moment.
Google it.

Rory was so close to pulling of the win, wish he would have gotten a belt before he retired. That dude was a killer

He won bellator belt beating Lima which is no achievement to sleep on
This fight was so crazy it turned him to God
@@LMaximus904 still a great accomplishment, just wish he got that UFC belt to add to it

20:14 yall cut out the best part smh
TOTALLY. HUGE MOMENT FACE TO FACE
@@mixmarcos_spain arguably the most iconic moment of the fight. ik they cut between rounds but still, they should've kept it
21:45 Shark bite
Why was the epic stare down between the 4th and 5th round cut? Someone fire the editor 😂 It really should be in this video whenever it is shown. Epic
why did you guys cut out the stare down after the round 4. it was the first and most epic stare down between rounds in UFC
Robbie was just unreal at this point in his career. The shots he took in this fight and his ability to recover was scary.
one night i was randomly flipping channels and this fight was in the 2nd round. i was hooked until the end, and the ufc had a new fan from then on. iconic fight
MacDonald was never the same guy after this fight, this fight took many years off his career and the possibility of ever been world champion.. amazing fight though
This fight stole rorys soul he was never the same again truly sad that he never fully got to rise to the top
The greatest fight of all time, what they both got paid for this fight is disgraceful and disgusting to this day.
amazes me that there are fans who are ok with how underpaid these guys are. rory was fighting for the belt and made less than $60k base, DISGUSTING
@@TheRulersBack18agreed, Robbie was messed up bad, but Big John said Rory could’ve died because he was aspirating blood most of the fight which is terrifying
Two of the greatest dogs to ever step in the Octogon. Two examples of the warrior spirit found in this day and age.
Just like the title said, best fight of all time.
Completely different era of UFC
DON'T SKIP THE STAREDOWN!
One of the most underrated fighters in the sport, Rory was a badass!
Robbie lawler is the most voilent fighter to ever walk this earth
This man lives for war and chaos inside the octagon, him retiring with KO win is absolutely adamant to his amazing carrer
MAX HOLLOWAY !???????????
Halloooo?
BMF ???
@@princedevilavl7man Holloway is great but he was never nearly as menacing as Lawler
Jon Jones wants to know your location.
This fight for sure will go down as one of the greatest fight in ufc history 💯💯💯
A little bit of each of their souls was left in there after this fight and for our entertainment. True warriors. Will always feel blessed for this one
This is a close second behind Rose vs Carla 2
Never underestimate Francis and the Black Beast for best fight of all time.
Complete casuals, REAL hardcores know Adesanya vs. Romero was the most exciting match of all time
@@burntouttoast3438 Of course !
Sh!t the best fights are mentioned… what about Derrick Lewis vs jailton Almeida ? Was a banger, too , right?

Yeah definitely up there. I’m more annoyed that Rory isn’t seen as a legend in UFC along with Gerard Mousasi? Politics? Damn straight

GIVE THE CHANNEL MANAGER A RAISE THEY BEEN COOKING RECENTLY WITH THESE VIDEOS
Bro this is mma not a cooking channel there’s a big difference
This is probably my favorite fight in UFC history. These guys left everything in the cage.
1:45 it's a 3 round fight and 2:00 it changes to 5 round at the bottom screen 😂
It was a error
Glitch in the matrix. Do you think this is real?
Fight so good, they wanted to see more of it!
good catch

9:20 you know there's a lot of blood if they're echoing it together at the same time

Absolutely loved the stare down in between 4 and 5 rounds why would you edit that part out
The Title Says It All. 100% NOT Click Bait!
This Fight was just as Legendary as Forrest Griffin vs. Stephan Bonnar!
This is the greatest MMA fight ever and I knew it when it was happening. An absolute war. Both guys incredible.

One of the best fights I have ever seen.
respect to both fighters, absolute warriors!!
Crazy how an old fight can have you so hyped 🎉
Both of these guys are studs! Kudos!!
Everyone looks at the heart and toughness. Lawler has the best sprawles I have ever seen in my life.

Awesome and very entertaining fight. True it's a great fight of all times
There Are No Winners Or Losers I say both Robbie and Rory are magnificent ❤🙏🏿❤

Two legends!! Much respect
hard as they come the pair them god bless all

Man, what a fight!
The perfomance of lawler wow!
Never noticed the lump on Robbie’s head after the 4th round this is like my third time watching this fight
Been waiting for ts
You cut the best part!!!
Yes, no other fight has been this bloody since
This is like a rock song that starts off slow, then starts going hard.
Would venture to say that this fight and Jones Vs Gustaffson 1 are the best ever. Back and forth, bloody, and entertaining as hell!
This was pinnacle UFC. Best fight hands down.
MASTERPIECE🔥
I would agree to this day in ufc still the best fight I’ve seen!!!
I feel like an incentive for fighters on top of the normal bonuses could be to give them a portion of the money generated from official ufc TH-cam clips. Even if it's small, it would give people incentive to literally have a highlight reel finish.
Definitely my favorite fight ever❤❤❤❤❤❤
I knew Robbie would come back thats a WARRIOR
This is one of the craziest octagon fights I've ever seen.
Why did you cut out that legendary stare down at the end of round 4.
What an absolute classic
Fantastic. MMA as it's best.
MacDonald's face lights up but he sure can take a punch, and his jabs and kicks are really fast !
Still one of my favorite fights
Robbie Lawler is a fan favorite.
Once champ is always a champ ❤❤
Lawler vs Mcdonald 2 was one hell of a fight
This pace was insane
