These 2 guys are just getting better and better. I look forward to the 2 shows every week and think it's just the right amount to build anticipation. Fantastic.
This show is only getting better and better. Still want to see y’all in studio. DC and uncle Chael deserve to have a big production set and studio set up. This has the potential to be a pat mcafee level show for MMA.
1. The BMF was and should always be intended for journeyman brawlers. 2. It needs to be kept separate from other title matches. Just because you’re a champion doesn’t mean you’re a BMF (Tuporia a prime example)
I've grown to liking the BMF belt. But I think it should be a trophy belt instead of a belt to be defended, kind of like the old Superfight and tournament belts. Like if Gaethje won, it shouldn't be "he defended the bmf" but he won a bmf title twice. A performance based based title, where fans and fighters agree that it makes sense to be up for grabs. Only putting it up like once every 3 years so it's special, and the winner gets some extra bonus like ppv points because it's prob what sold he majority of the ppv anyway. I get not liking it, but the fact a current champ wants it enough to refuse to fight unless it's up for grabs show's it's value (and should also disqualify him from getting it) The main and only reason I really like the title, is it will enhance the performance of the fight when someone is fighting for that title. Risks will be taken, finishes will be chased. It's almost like a guarantees that the fight you want to see will be exciting.
Conor is no bmf, he apologised during a fight, has a 1-3 lw record and didn't win against a top 5 since Obama. and Chandler only has 5 Ufc fights with a 2-3 record and fights dirty. None of them deserve the bmf "title", even when its an unnecessary title.
IMO, Topuria does not meet the requirements for the BMF belt. I’m not saying he’s not good, he’s obviously a champion caliber fighter, but not quite BMF. Justin taking a fight where he had nothing to gain and everything to lose - BMF. Max fighting the biggest KO artist in a division above him - BMF. Topuria skipped over Max. The BMF is not strictly a ranking based belt
I think it's the equivalent to who's the actual gladiator in the UFC. It's definitely just as good as the gold belt. But definitely the BMF belt is the belt that makes you the BMF on the planet. Key word Planet !
If Dustin beats Islam then Dustin will be next for the BmF if Max vs Topuira don’t happen. Max will want that LW strap and he has the BMF belt to put up as well. Dustin vs Max 3 will be massive
I'm not a TH-cam wizard, but people watch this for Chael and DC and skim over their recommended section to see what to watch next. Not putting Chael and DC in a thumbnail of an ESPN MMA channel is not a smart move. They're your needle movers. We don't watch this to see just anyone's perspectives on the BMF, we watch this for the daddest man on the planet and uncle Chael.
Ilia vs Holloway is the fight I want to see the most right now tbh. Holloway possibly has the style to beat Ilia but with that said and regardless of what Volk fanboys think, Ilia could win that fight. 💯
You imagine what turn of events it would be if max ends up facing illia beats him regains the title then defends against volk in the quadrilogy and finally beats him I mean there would have to be a next tier of HOF For the bless man foreva
The BMF belt should only change hands on Ko/Tko. If Ilia cant put Max away he doesn't get it. It also keeps it in the realm of real fighters who are not going to wrestle fro 25 minutes. As much as i love good wrestlers, the BMF should only change hands on a finish.
Justin knows why he needs to heal up because he's close friends with Usman who Usman had been brutally KO'd. So I am sure he would have advised Garth to take it slow.
Volk deserves rematch because he was the 🐐 , Holloway is a huge fight, why wouldn't he take that, Ortega also a huge name fight. Who is Top gonna defend against ?
Dustin is going to beat Islam! Next gaethje trilogy! Now Justin takes his world championship to the b.m.f. Fight max again with no broken nose or 2 nasty eye pokes!
If they are going to do the BMF as a continuous title, it needs to have defined stipulations. I think it should be 135/145, 155/170, 185/205 to qualify for a BMF you should of fought in both weight classes and won fights in both weight classes to qualify. The holder of the BMF title should be known in those 3 classes.
Well you have to consider which fighters are qualified as “BMF”, it just so happens most fighters in LW are considered BMF’s, I don’t consider any FW/BW as BMF’s, I don’t consider any FW’s fighters as BMF’s, Maybe in LHW or HW, But Justin, Dustin, Chandler, Charles, MAX, all embody that
Max wants that rematch with volk and its incredibly hard to get with his losses to him.. if he gets the 45 belt that fight is literally his next fight. Thats his motivation.
I think the BMF should be relinquished once a fighter becomes champion but if he loses he has the chance to fight for an open BMF 1st against someone else. No BMF can be carried by a champion. It just becomes open upon going into championship fights. All BMF titles are picked by the fans as the fan favorites as deemed BMF contenders. We can’t have wrestling crotch sniffers with a BMF belt. Fans pick
Chael is 100% correct. If Max tells Ortega look u can fight me for BMF belt that’s huge opportunity for Ortega. Chael only said that because Topuira wants to fight Ortega instead of Max. So Chael said Max can offer the BMF belt which in reality if Ortega wins he can 100% get title shot because the BMF belt becomes that much popular and Champion will want to hold 2 belts at once lol. But Max is just throwin out options to get in Topuira head .
@@Ghost-304 did you just start watching MMA? Holloway starched and picked the round to finish Ortega in when Ortega was in him prime. Nobody wants to see that fight again.
@@Ghost-304 The BMF has always been for specific type of fighters. Ortega and especially Ilia are not in that category. They would never do what Max/Justin did at the end for example. Many people beat Masvidal after he got the BMF title, none of them got it because they were never in the category.
The UFC has a problem. Ilia needs to be told who to fight and NO BMF. Shut him up and book him the Perth fight for the rematch with Volk. Ilia needs Dana White to notch him down just a tad.
In my opinion you guys need Chael and DC in the thumbnail.
💯
Agreed!
Seriously. What are they doing over there????
You think it's just a generic ESPN mma video.
100% why i didnt see the last episode
They really do other wise I think is Ariel and don’t wanna watch
ESPN mma make a thumbnail for dc and Chael please when you release these
You think about it all day 😂😂
Almost skipped this video bc i didnt realize it was DC and CS
Still no thumbnail 😂
Who cares bro 😂 just sit there and watch it with your doritos and sugar drink pot belly
@@TripleAudio-qo9vtprojecting?
Chael absolutely hates when DC cuts him off
Aljo didn't look great in his featherweight debut? Tf? Aljo may have had a "boring" fight, but he dominated that fight.
Winning and good are not the same
I thought aljo looked amazing at 145 but he really needs to work on his boxing for 1 camp
He dominated the fight tbh I enjoyed Aljo's fights
If it was GSP or Khabib they’d love it lmao
Fo sho.
These 2 guys are just getting better and better.
I look forward to the 2 shows every week and think it's just the right amount to build anticipation. Fantastic.
I think Holloway needs to be fighting for a world title next, but McGregor vs Holloway 2 would be nuts!
so many episodes into this, and still Chael's head is zoomed-in a bit too close.. let's go video techs
You smell like chettos and soda
your head too and your butts
Man! These two together have the best MMA show ever!
This show is only getting better and better. Still want to see y’all in studio. DC and uncle Chael deserve to have a big production set and studio set up. This has the potential to be a pat mcafee level show for MMA.
Show is so much better and smoother when they are conversing naturally vs forcing their version of PTI on us lmao
Who's here for the bad guy
Me
Here for both, I’ve been watching since RC first started
@@JmanHash99 me to man but chael is amazing
Chael’s random monologues are my fav 🤘
Uncle Chael is my daddy.
lol DC's story about gaethje eating the waygu 😂 savage
1. The BMF was and should always be intended for journeyman brawlers.
2. It needs to be kept separate from other title matches. Just because you’re a champion doesn’t mean you’re a BMF (Tuporia a prime example)
BLESSED MAN FOREVER
Killed him with the Charles Barkley comparison lol
Glad theres finally an espn show I actually like
I was hoping to fly out to Vegas for 303 and to watch Uncle Chael get inducted into the HOF, but tickets are too freaking expensive
They can't let you get close
I wanted to go to a fight night with Joanna vs wayerson in Tampa 120$ cheapest seats
I got you bro, what’s your cash app
how much are the seats even going for? im talking about bird nest seats
@@Eduardo-yp6brI spent about 1,400 a seat with fees and that was about the cheapest available

They need to have an exclusive event for the BMF. Tournament style one night of fights for whoever signs up.
Winner of Conor v chandler should fight max for BMF
Conor is no bmf, he apologised during a fight, has a 1-3 lw record and didn't win against a top 5 since Obama. and Chandler only has 5 Ufc fights with a 2-3 record and fights dirty. None of them deserve the bmf "title", even when its an unnecessary title.
apologies for a butthurt of a dagy for a red pantie night or the ages? that apology? excuse moi sir how pricky
This will be his last fight in Ufc . you think Dana going to let the bkfc thing slide I dont think so
I don't think 1 win in the last 5 years should qualify Conor. But it's a make believe belt anyway, so who cares.
Terrible fight
Justin saying he remembers you Chael is his caveman way of showing love lol
The BMF should be annual. The BMF of 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024...It could motivate fighters in all classes to put it on the line every fight.
My fav mma show, and the only one I watch religiously. But you guys gotta put their faces in the thumbnails
Bmf rule should never allow a decision finish. Keep going until someone is out!
I fxckn love this show!! Good call on getting uncle Chael into the mix. DC you da man! We miss ya Ryan
I've said this for years. Only one fight we need to see JBJs vs Daniel Cormia at heavy weight
Topuria wishes he was the Blessed Man Forever
DC’s at his best when he entertains Max’s call-outs… 😂
Chael is a genius with the whole max/ilia and Ortega thing. Hahaha Ortega choosing is HILARIOUS
IMO, Topuria does not meet the requirements for the BMF belt. I’m not saying he’s not good, he’s obviously a champion caliber fighter, but not quite BMF. Justin taking a fight where he had nothing to gain and everything to lose - BMF. Max fighting the biggest KO artist in a division above him - BMF. Topuria skipped over Max.

I’ve never heard DC talk about any division other than lightweight and featherweight

They are in the thumbnail,Good Guy Bad Guy..
ilia topuria vs halloway in summer/fall
Would have loved this show to have been DC and Askren
I hope ESPN never put DC and Chael as the thumbnail.

How could anyone deny rhe courage it took Illia to refuse to fight anyone in rhe top 15 at fewrherweight... Smh
When i was a kid at least Tito didnt let Chuck Liddell destroy every other light heavyweight so he could hold on to a belt.

@@jobymahon2871 Yet he wants to fight Holloway in September and only turned down Volk so he could rest. Do u want to see Volk get KOd again?

Most exciting fights at 155
BSD vs CHANDLER
Max “Blessed” Holloway vs Fiziev
Do you think Dixie Normus will come to the UFC and eventually fight for a title?
Hopefully you'll get Max on Thursday's show.
GREATEST MMA COMBO IN THE WORLD!! GOOD GUY BAD GUY ALL DAY!!!

We all know it's the Blessed MF belt now
If Max is going back to 145, at 155 Arman should fight the winner at 302 and Gaethje vs Oliveira 2 should be put on the same card
Every bmf win has been by knockout. You should only be able to win the belt by ko
Jorge wasn’t a KO, Nate was robbed by the Doc. If that fight happens anywhere besides NY the fight continues lol
No, only specific type of fighters should get it. Usman KO'd Masvidal, it doesn't mean that he should get the BMF belt.
Volk deserves rematch because he was the 🐐 , Holloway is a huge fight, why wouldn't he take that, Ortega also a huge name fight. Who is Top gonna defend against ?
Thank god they got rid of RC
In my opinion i dont want dc and chael in the thumbnail. I like the thumbnails you guys have! 😊
Glad to tune in and not hear about fake wrestling
Thank you chael (and dc)

Only person connor should have to fight when he comes back.. is Max. Max earned that pay day and easy victory ✌️
Max.... vs who is skillful or stylewise. In boxing or kickboxing.... near same height.
Max wants that rematch with volk and its incredibly hard to get with his losses to him.. if he gets the 45 belt that fight is literally his next fight. Thats his motivation.
I hate the idea of Max vs Ilia tbh. And for Gaethje, i would love to see him move up. Gaethje vs Colby would be dope

Max is the people pound for pound .. dude is ur favorite fighters favorite fighter.
Dc making out that max is looking for the easier route to greatness is pretty insulting to his mate who we all know is a fearless warrior
Best show on the sport
I don’t like the bmf cause only fighters 145-170 can obtain It unless someone gets stripped.
Yo in all honestly, Hill was out cold. Yes, he woke up quickly, but he was out.
Hey DC SHUTUP AND LET DHAEL ANSWER
Chandler x Holloway would be fun
Jones vs Stipe and Alex vs Tom.. winners get each other! This is simple

ESPN talking heads gaslighting you into liking the BMF belt:
If Max has to put it up then it has to be retroactively traced… crazy that Leon Edwards is the lineal BMF champ.
Guess Chael forgot Justin called for the Dustin fight
If a champion wins the BMF belt then it's no good. You would have to choose which would be stupid.
Does Chael watch the sport still? Holloway v Ortega for BMF ???? Bruh...
