I get not liking Izzy as a person, but as a fighter I think people are over reacting. His accolades are top 5 and he’s still only 24-3 lol three loses with all the huge names he’s fought. In my opinion, he’s still got gas left in the tank. Don’t write him off.
Ik right and alll this time off too at his elite level he is bout to go on another run imo
Chael quoting George Costanza is the best thing ever.
“Jerry, remember; it’s not a lie if you believe it” - My favourite line and scene from the show 😂🎉
5 on 1 in a Las Vegas hotel hallway they still had to dial 9 11 .
Don't think it was vegas...but yea...all outta 'tuff guy my ass
@@qball8437it was Vegas, It was at the luxor. Allegedly
@@DAxxB34ST Chael did a thunder clap to clear the crowd that broke the time stream and killed Tupac in 1996
@chiquita683 I heard he watched the hallway fight scene in Oldboy and decided to recreate it irl
It's funny that people think that actually happened.
Hey uncle Chael. Don't forget DDP fought Brunson. Cheers from Joburg RSA
that was painful, brunson corner threw the towel with seconds to go
@@alexlol3260Brunson was done bud 😂
@@sentientdogma1206 at least let him get back to the corner
I never met a girl from joburg
🇿🇦 I’m in joburg too
Izzy via KO first round. He'll exposed that south african keffer
Izzy is the underdog now.
There are literal layers of dogs
Not when he's a former 2x Middleweight champ with multiple title defenses...lol 😂
DDP would not be able to catch izzy just like costa and Romero 😂
Izzy is smart, these people forget
@@Rodneybrainsmart😂😂😂😂😂
Dricus beat the shit out of Whittaker
He also stood his ground against Strickland and did well in the striking boxing aswell.
@@420Momentum 😂😂😂 yeah blocking Stricklands punches with his face
@@lokidd3644 are u kidding me? Did u not watch the later rounds? DDP was landing very good punches and landed some good takedowns aswell. Strickland punched DDP as hard as he can and DDP took it ok the chin and kept fighting. He wasn't like Sneako covering up for dear Life lmao
We all saw it. ❤
@@420MomentumStrickland isn’t a power puncher, he never was so that’s not saying much
This is the 27th time you tell us the DDP / Bo nical undercard / main card story
And he always forgets about the Brunson fight 😂
The story has him fighting different opponent each time, which keeps it fresh
It was Brunson and they never moved him to the main card. Bo fought Pickett to open up the 285 main card
Starting off with a George Costanza reference.. Chael. Your off to a good start so far, but we'll see where this goes
I wanna know how DDP “backed out” of that first interview with Adesanya?
after he beat Whitaker, he told the press he was injured and needed time, and could not turn around quickly to fight Izzy. That’s what Uncle Chael is referring to
Izzy is good but he gets taken down ddp just looks heavy asf and he for sure goes in the octagon at 200-220 pounds
He's absolutely a dude that could step up to LHW pretty easily. He doesn't look out of fighting shape at the heavier weight either!
He enter the octagon usually at 208.
Fight miles are a real thing, and kickboxers tend to log a lot of fight miles. There isn't a magic number where you're suddenly just not good anymore, there's a lot of other factors, but eventually, all those punches and kicks to the head catch up.
It’s so crazy how few years these dudes have of their prime. I know there are outlying cases but in general it seems like 4-5 years. 31/32 to 36. After that- all depends on how good the competition is. 4-5 years of prime? That’s nuts. Islam is 32. He’s got 3 years until he’ll be called “old man” by the younger fighters and fans. THREE YEARS! Some of y’all may not have the perspective yet to really feel how short of a time frame that is but MY GOD. A drop in the bucket. Almost makes it discouraging to watch MMA. But I still love it.
Now really think about how long Jon Jones has been fighting at championship level. Absolutely insane. If not for his personal life controversies he could have gone down as the Michael Jordan of MMA.
Prime is about 7 years, late 20s and early 30s, like 27-34.
Real physical prime is actually more like 26-31. After that the body (very) slowly starts to decline but it's not noticeable until like 37.
32-35 can still be good years to be on top if you are skilled enough, which if you are already champ then most likely you are.
Because Bones has more juice in his system than tropicana
DDP had a broken foot and couldn't fight Adesanya the first time.....just here to keep Chael honest.
Lol not happening
Izzy fought Strickland with an injured back so DDP was just scared. Everyone fights with injuries
What about the second time he pulled out
@@blameitonkj4882 😂🤣🤡
@@robthevampireslayer3211What
Izzy was a dominant champion. He was was very busy, didn’t duck anybody. Several times, I was rooting for his opponent, because he was fighting one of my favorite fighters. He’s entertained me for years. He has over 100 professional fights . He was a great champion.
I don't know if there are many things that I heard about more often in my life than Uncle Chael talking about that DDP on the undercard/Bo Nickal on the main card-situation. 😄
Im betting on the guy who beat periria
Izzy in a bar "I beat that guy one time!"
Ddp smoking izzy with real mma😂🔥🇿🇦

Aa opposed to pretend mma???
Viljoenskroon bar style, julle wil nie leer nie.....Dricus gaan hom frommel.. 😂😂🇿🇦💯
😂😂😂😂
Lief vir ons Afrikaanse woorde . You can't express yourself better in any other language.
Frommel lmklaar
Fokkit, lag my gat after hier uit l9ndon...
Ek glo nie DDP was al ooit in Viljoenskroon nie, maar as hy was sou hy dit laaik
DDP gaan hom buig soos n warm fizzer!
i actually happened to watch that till fight today against ddp. it was not close. till never looked good…
never looked at confidence that way… uncle chael strikes again
One thing is for sure Dana will probably not line up Izzy and sean again. Sean's defensive style doesn't leave any openings for Izzy to counter punch. If that fight happens it's co-main at best and only sets up Khamzat to take the belt from Strickland
Dricus Du Plessis 🇿🇦
ftshek
Shout out to the puppy 🐶
I was there when Izzy and DDP had that back and forth in the octagon it was pretty awkward lol
I think fighters have figured out to put pressure on adesanya. Problem is hes one of the best counter punchers to ever do it. Having said that, i think driscus is a worse matchup for adesanya than strickland was
Strickland broke that man's will to keep fighting.
I think Izzy loses to DDP and I’m not even a DDP fan.
Chael telling & retelling & retelling the DDP story and how Bo Nickal was ahead of him on the card in late 2022
Chimaev just called for a title shot after pulling out of the fight with Whittaker. What a moron 😂
Izzy doesn't have that dog in him anymore.
good one
I'm not sure it was the dog that was in Izzy...might have been the other way around...
Nope Strickland took it 😂
Underrated comment hahaha
Does that really depends on what you think
I really like DDP but I‘m ok with Izzy winning because the Izzy haters are starting to be really annoying.
Swrs bro they are very annoying
Totes agree.
I agree, they acting like Izzy shouldn't have been in the UFC
Same i want izzy to win. Guy gets no respect for taking Periera's consciousness away from him after being in such a dark place, losing his belt, being down 3-0 , that is the most amazing comeback ever ...And it gets NO CREDIT
I hope Izzy has an incredible performance
I'm leaning towards DDP. He's mentally & physically tougher than Izzy. Plus with Izzy being off this long, it all adds up to his doom.
I’ll come back to this
@@olawandeode8239 yes come back & leave a real comment after Izzy gets dizzied.
@@olawandeode8239ill remind you
😂
@@SinisterPlauges does your name come from the smell of your breath or your 🍑?
Will his dog ever be the same?
Dricus made whittaker look like an amateur, and whittaker is one of the best, with all due respect.
How many Ufc champs would actually fight CHAEL in a Motel Hallway?
Sean changed Izzy forever.
lol, you lying and you know this
@@lekgotlatgae5955 what do you mean? It’s plain to see. Even before their fight. Izzy was hiding under sunglasses and a hat and had nothing to say.
He was never humble and hie already had his time.
He;s been doing choreographed dance, he's actually pretty darn good. Entertaining! Lol, I wanna see more of that! HAHAHA he couuld become an ig influencer lol
i honestly don't care about this fight Izzy should have taken another fight before this considering that he lost to Sean who then according to Dana himself arguably beat Dricus so why are we making Sean fight other people first i think Dana is just trying to squeeze relevance out of Izzy but i'm just not interested in the fight and it is kind of disrespectful to Sean who i felt deserved an immediate rematch considering Izzy is one and two in his last 3 fights lost to Alex beat Alex and then immediately loses to Sean but its Dana privilege when you have that popularity i guess
Dude you are totally correct but it's kind of a, "We all know that, but it is what it is" situation now ...
Speaking of Bo - where he at now?
No one is ever the same or should try to be the same it's called evolution that's what you should be talking about.
I think the fight with sean was just a bad day at the office. he really was a busy champ and i think he got bored at some point compareable to jones vs reyes. maybe he's motivated now but i have to admit that father time gets everyone that means i'm hyped
I'm not sure Izzy still has it. This was not a good come back right for him.
Izzy got cooked that was it . Strickland took him to school
If this comment gets 4 likes, I'll do zero push-ups!
Lol i was the 4th like
15 does not equal 4. Looks like you gotta do some pushups.
Do it p u s $ y
I’ll reverse push-up by pushing down and raise you -2 push-ups
@@4nthonyrivera800prove it. Now.
DDP is the more confident now cos he beat a guy who beat Izzy
Is doesn't work like that in UFC
Chael still salty that DDP has gotten ahead faster than Bo
Dogbender will be annihilated.
Let's hope so. It's only fair.
Other way around
@@mamadousow8290 why you support dog abuse ?
Stupid idea to bet against Adesanya
@@dominiceliakim4617 You do remember what happened last time??
undefeated & undisputed
Wow, even pronouncing DDP name correct 👍
STIPE KNOCKS OUT jbj✝️🇺🇸
DDP got on the map vs Till
May not be not great of a win in hindsight, he was already done, bur im guessing most fans had never even heard his name till they saw him fight Till
And from there has been on a hell of a run
Tito tapped!!
That's just a fact.
Dp Vs Strickland fight wasn’t that convincing
Izzy will meet the dog in DDP & i'm not sure if he'll feel that's good or bad.
We want see Pereira vs Izzy again!
At 205.
DDP the new South American Champ😂
Hahaha
Who was the old SA champ?
Not Chael calling Dricus South American 😆
U no theres 1 person in ufc to stop pereria .izzy and it was knockout of the year .
Give izzy the cred hes due .izzy will slice and dice ddp .
All the hate is just added flavour. There's no fighter in the UFC with a better story. Izzy is now starting the third part of his story. The hate is important because it's more consistent than being a fan. The hate keeps the notoriety bubbling. What really hurts a fighter is when the fans ignore them.
Cuzz how many times do you want to tell this story?
chael talks about the bo nickal under card thing in every single video that’s about dricus. we get it now ffs🤦🏽♂️
DDP is gonna starch Izzy, he’s cooked 👨🍳
Nah DDP will turn wrestler to get the victory.
@@ffshooter9929Which will turn into ground and pound which will turn Izzy into Grace Jones.....BOTCHED.
I got izzy in this one. I just hope it's a good one.
Izzy and Conor need to go on the road together
STIPE THE GOAT✝️🇺🇸
GOAT fireman and family man
@@alexlol3260 STIPE THE GOAT AND STIPE KNOCKS OUT jbj✝️🇺🇸
In my opinion Izzy didn’t deserve a title shot off of his last fight but from him being dominant when he was champ I guess it’s fine. But if he loses this next fight he needs to climb back.
Izzy Beats DDP 3-1. DDP is confident, I get it, but stylistically, DDP's style is one which makes Izzy look good
Tough one boet. I want our boy to win, but I don’t want to disrespect the skill set that Israel packs
Alex is the guy Izzy wanted to be
I see it 2 to 1 for ddp being the favorite. I think ddp stops him via ko on the feet or tko on the ground through strikes or neck choke
Don’t bet on it. You will most likely lose and be broke for the rest of your life.
DDP will have the edge over Adesanya i believe, if Dricus closes the space and makes it a dogfight i don't see Adesanya winning , If Dricus allows Adesanya to kick him and rip at his body its going to be tough beating him.. Taking Adesanya's counter punches away he doesn't have much for Dricus!!
Izzy is the only fighter I've ever seen considered to be a P4P that actually turns his back to his opponent and runs away in the octagon.
Go Dricus!
Respect uncle Jill I’m glad you spoke on the black-and-white. I know it must be difficult coming from racist ass Oregon but thank you.
Take your anti-white comment and shove it
You're the racist. Oregon is awesome.
He's 1-2 in his last three fights. Hate to be pessimistic, but it's likely that his best days are behind him. Same story of virtually every fighter's career.
Love from South Africa 🇿🇦 , I wish you could be a UFC commentator someday
I'm not doing push-ups
Izzy got destroyed. DDP actually landed some really good punches on Strickland Took Strickland down slammed him a few times good ground and pound. Etc
DDP will dominate Adesanye and keep him on the back foot.
IM THE REASON WALDO IS HIDING!
He always had confidence, Izzy made DDP withdraw because of the racial slurring. South Africa's racial story you should all know. If Dricus had gone with that fight, they would have called him a racist.
Izzy -300 DK favorite
Sean strickland broke izzys mind and personality. Izzys ante comfortable anymore. Izzy needs to beat dricus for redemption. If izzy wins im im his fan again.
Dricus is going to knock out Izzy, he is willing to get upclose to him and Adesanya will do what he did vs Strickland. Back up and get overwhelmed with pressure, DDP is also better on the ground. Izzy cant let him get close or he will get smashed 😜
I highly doubt it. No one has knocked Izzy out cold n the Octagon. Not even Alex. Stickland landed some vicious blows but Izzy stayed in there. I think Dricus loses by 1st round KO
@@jerome25greatness78 Weird because I saw a video of Izzy out cold getting oxygen after sleeping for at least 120 seconds with Alex's son doing a dance next to his lifeless body.
That wasn’t in the OCTAGON
@@jerome25greatness78 He has definitely gotten starched out cold just not in the UFC yet. Strickland is not known for his power, its all in his pressure and even still his 1-2 almost sent Izzy to the shadow realm. Dricus dropped Whittaker with a jab lol
@@bobdolesghost2406 exactly lol
DDP by rear naked choke
You guys must not understand Israel Adesanya. He does his best work with guys who rush in on him. Israel is a counter fighter. With the year off if he comes back and is really trying to prove a point, he will KO DDP in the 2nd round.
Dricus the South American champion 😂😂😂
He will be either better or never the same. How can you spend 9 min talking about it😂
I believe we will see Izzy beat DDP. After that, his career will be a mystery from there. He was supposed to beat Strickland easy, but he didn't adjust in the fight at all, but we know he can. That's why he KO Alex. Anything can happen. I'm just glad he's back fighting
I was thinking the same thing. When Izzy is quiet, focused and not entertaining, he is the most dangerous. He had almost no words before he beat Alex. I like the cold bloded killer Izzy.
Izzy lost that Strickland fight in the first round after he got dropped and took almost 20 shots to the head. He never recovered from that and just managed to survive to the end. He paid the price for not taking Strickland seriously. Dricus will suffer for that.
i will be back here after the fight
@@mrspiff6955 I agree he definitely underestimated Strickland abilities against his.
@@ItsameAlex cool, I'll come back to see what you got to say.
If they fought in July last year DDP would have won, I think now, DDP won't just win, he is ending Izzy's career.
Apparently ddp is south american
Let's all be honest with ourselves, DDP did not beat Sean Strickland. It's just a fact. Nobody cares about Izzy versus DDP! Anybody who knows anything about the UFC knows that they are partnered with woke ESPN, and they are sponsored by woke Bud light. That's the reason why even if remotely close the fight was never going to go to Sean Strickland. That's the reason why sean Strickland didn't get a rematch. That's the reason why Izzy's coming back for heads and not belts but doesn't want to get that lost back. ESPN is woke bud light is woke. Modelo is woke... And UFC is becoming low key woke
Absolutely not
I would ask Sean Strickland his opinion of who should be the favorite in DDP v IA since he rearranged both of their faces. No?
Sean has a scar on his eye from the stiches he got in the DDP fight, there no are scars on DDP or IA from their fights with Strickland. I know you might say that it was because of a headbutt, it wasn't, you can clearly see where Dricus's right hand cut Sean, he was already bleeding before the "headbutt".
@@kooskoekemoer Dricus’s face after the fight and 3 weeks later looked like hamburger meat, Sean jabbed his head off and Dricus came out appearing to have been ran over by a lawnmower 💯☝️🤔
@@mikemosley2948 During the fight DDP's one eye was swollen shut, and Sean couldn't see out of his one eye beause it was covered with blood. It was pretty even in terms of damage, but DDP's veriety of attacks, takedowns and controlling the majority of the fight by moving foreward, made him the winnner. You have to be biased to think that is was a robbery, I hope they fight again soon.
@@kooskoekemoer I didn’t say it was a Robbery, U I said Dricus’s Face looked a hell of a lot worse than Stricklands. Just go pull up the after fight pliers…. Duplessis looks like he died💯☝️🤔
@@Matt-km3po I agree, DDP used his face to block those jabs, he even admitted it, but I'm sure he won't let it happen in a rematch.
Dricus blitzes with his chin in the air. Izzy will put him to sleep inside 2 rounds. That fight won’t be close.
Bet on that
You're smoking your socks buddy. DDP is going to strangle the Gynobender come Aug 18
