Hope Gus looks good. Like seeing him fight, he needs a win.
Ya he’s still got some decent amount of time to, hope he’s back on his game
All those years ago he kicked Jon jones' ass and robbed. Love me some Gustafson
@Bubba Simpson I disagree. But at least you have it 3 to 2.
Wait what? Tou wrote gus wins 3 rounds and loses? Stfu now stypid.
@Bubba Simpson I agree that Gus won 3-2 but I dont think u have to be dominant
Dont forget the Robert Whittaker rest... Then he came back and cleaned out the middle weight division.
Gus is washed. Stay the fuck retired. Especially if he has that idiot andres Michael in his corner
I still hope so!
@thomas burns i think werdum is just that good
Bobby knuckles
I fucking love gus, can't wait to see him again
Me too. Man, that 1st Jones fight was one of the best ever
The first Gus and Jones fight was the first UFC fight I watched, since then Gus had been my favourite fighter
@@manavpandya4113 Cool. I think he will come back reinvented this time!
Gustafson: Hey retirement, I can't let you get close...
I laughed way too hard at this lol
He already retired. Lost to Werdum quickly.
Gus was like Jiri Prokraskvchviri 1.0
@Ragnar I can't believe Alexander Gustafsson gave Daniel Cormier and Jon Jones the hardest fight of their lives and he gets submitted by a past-prime Fabricio Werdum.
@@MasterBears23 dude I hope you butchered Jiri Prochazka´s name on purpose LOL
Good lord imagine Gus and Jon fight each other at heavyweight
That's what I was thinking LOL that would be hilarious
Would be cool to see Gus beat him up again
Kind of hard to do a trilogy when one guy has lost both of the fights, the second wasn't even close
@@IcedCub Gus kicked his ass the first fight though
@@joshtheflatearthjedi222 Didnt Jones beat the shit out of him in the rematch??
Ortega took a year layoff and looked fantastic against Zombie.
More like a 3 year layoff
Ortega needed time off due to damage from 1 fight against Max. Chael is speaking more towards guys who need time off due to too much activity in general.
@@loganroberts1582 didn't realize it was that long 👀
@@foolycooly3763 then why would he talk about Gus? I thought Gus took a year off before going to HW lol
Gis is coming back?? That is great news for us Swedes! Go Sweden!
Skål!
Jag älskar dig 😂 Mexican American learning Swedish. Would love to visit one day.
Tror han är bättre än någonsin, hoppas bara det blir lätt tungvikt den här gången
@@nnotrubenn Vänta. Vem är frán Mexico? Jag är frán Spanien men ok. Go Sweden!
Sweden the shithole.
Gustafsson has so many legendary fights, I am so happy to hear he is back. I will never forget what Daniel Cormier said to Joe Rogan in the ring after a hard fought win: "Thank you Alexander Gustafsson, you made me a better man and fighter tonight. I will forever be indebted to you."
Undefeated, Undisputed Leg Crosses of Greatness: 0:27, 1:35, 2:40, 3:49. Never lost a round.
Gus needs a break but uncle Chael does not break...
Much respect.
Chael sets the schedule....you will wait.
Man, my heart resonates with alex. Hope to see him back stronger and better.
Gusto got good moves.. He'll always pop you up with Dynamite shots.. Soft but will burst you open. Best takedown defense 💯🔓very long reach and a good left hand
It's funny because in his last fight he landed virtually no shots and then was taken down and finished within minutes of the fight starting
@@janblachowiczsfatgrandson7833 I understand you bruv.. I think like chael is saying he should let he's brain rest, laylow for now.🔓I know it's a hard decision to make but it works. He may come back stronger and more technical 🔞
@@Hoppa_93 I hope he goes back to 205. I think right now Gus beats most of the top 10. Would love to see Gus/Jiri.
@@janblachowiczsfatgrandson7833 that's true he beats all top 10.just that to get a shot at that Gold takes years.. Well on the other hand I hope Chandler loses 🤣🔫
@@Hoppa_93 I think he will. I'm saying Olivera pieces him up on the feet and Chandler gets caught taking a panic shot around the middle of the fight and submitted.
Gustaffson needs a tune up before he comes back, set him up with Aljermain Sterling.
Aljo stops Gus via DQ
swedish coloniser bullies african pgymy
Gus vs Rockhold at 205 would be a good one
Good shout.
Unfortunately Rockhold said yesterday he's committing to 185....
Rockholds glas jaw cant take punches from a guy like gus, Bisping and Blachowicz knocked him out ffs
@@notnirup blachowicz has ko power tho... Bisping, I get why you would say him but jan is strong
Chael is the sexiest man alive
Junior Diaz how about artem"the goat"lobov.
We need the Alex that floored Glover. Those boxing combos was unreal.
Can't wait to see Gus again. An absolute legend for Sweden and one of the pioneers that brought UFC into Europe.
I was actually rewatching Gus fights last night when the story broke. I’m so excited to hear he’s coming back!
This is back to back fights where we say “this is not Gus”.... maybe Gus isn’t Gus... I’m Gus now
No, I’m Gus now.
BOOMER
@@matthewmayfield8095 BOOMER
I think the groin injury right before the Oestemir fight was worse then Gus let on. Remember, both Jones and DC had problems taking down and holding down Gus before but in all 3 fights after the injury Gus was like a dead fish on the ground. Hope he is fully healed now!
I completely agree. He clearly moved as if he still had pain. I had the same problem and was unable to hip escape, push kick, side kick, and even hitting someone in the belly with my knees was paunful. If he still is that hungry as when he first fought Jones, he could beat Jones now. But the competition has become fierce.
Gus n Bones 1 was the very first ufc fight i watched. Been a huge fan and have watched every single fight since. I love Gus and i hope he stays at heavy weight...but i just want to see him fight again
Just that small mention of Holloway gets me hyped for his next fight, his last was nothing short of incredible.
Yayy I was wondering what happened to Alex
Gus is a talent for sure and I hope his time off put things in prospective for him and he does well at heavy even after that one sided first time loss.
Its so awesome that uncle cheal uses his powers for good! Even when he trashes jon it still keeps his name in the game and he always tries to put shine on the guys who need it. Cheal your a good dude 👍
Gustafsson would benefit from being more active. He's had like 1 fight a year since the Anthony Johnson fight 6 years ago. But he definitely looks tired when he fights I'll agree with that, even against Jones 2 he looked like he had no will to win and no urgency.
Looked stunning against Texeira tho
I hope he comes back and puts on a masterpiece
Max "Just Did This Himself" Holloway
I like it
Chael never sleeps 😂
Don't call it a comeback! He been here for years.
Gus did have a break Chael lol. There was a 11-12 month gap in between his losses to Lionheart (and an 11 month gap after this fight for Smith to fight his next fight as well) and Werdum and not to mention he took that Werdum fight on like 2 weeks notice I don’t think it had anything to do with needing a break lol after he lost to Lionheart Smith he actually announced his retirement and cried then left his gloves in the cage as well. so Gus fighting Werdum made as much sense (even less so) as OSP fighting Rothwell on short notice, the quarantine UFC era in the first few months was pretty “unorganized” compared to regular UFC standards.
This
Ok hear me out it’s sounding like from your explanation of the “break” Jon should come back even scarier than ever since he’s taken this break with committing to heavyweight..I like it
I’m the biggest Gus fan.... but he did have a break when he decided to fight at heavyweight. I think he needs to go back to 205 and he could dominate it.
GUS IS BACK 👍👍👍
Spot on Uncle Chael!
"Max 'Just Did This Himself' Holloway"
Gus vs. Reyes ?
re watched the dc fight. really good mobility his movements were really fluid
Not convinced he should fight at heavyweight, but hope he comes back refreshed and good.
Come on Gus! You got this!
Gustafsson needs to go to lhw he beat jan and glover already he might have a good shot
Gus introduced me to MMA...I know its sound stupid given him not being Jon Jones,Conor McGregor or Jose Aldo kinda celebrity and it´s a long story all together....but I´d absolutely love to see the Mauler return....just stay at 205, division is getting it´s shine back again. Heavyweight will keep getting murdered by Ngannou for next 2-3 years
The longer uncle chael talks without a break, the more defined his neck veins get
gus is such a fan favorite. idk anyone who doesn’t wanna see that man with a belt
Exactly what i’ve been waiting for! LFG
What the hell does LRG mean??
Looking for Gus XD
@@MrMorris911 Oh okay. Hahaha. Awesome.
UFC needs a new weight class, HW should be 207-236 & super heavyweight should be 237+ & there’s no ceiling for super heavy
JOSHUA FABIA IS SO SELF AWARE THAT he thinks him and Dana are best friends
I hope you do.
Gus at 240 245. I dont want to even imagine that uppercut.
I don’t really count a loss vs Werdum as a loss. I mean it’s Werdum, he armbarred you, can happen to anyone. I’ll be concerned if he gets his ass kicked for 2-3 rounds in his next fight
I disagree Chael. I think Gus wants a belt and LHW will be is easiest road to getting one. He's already fought and beat Jan, and has a good chance of beating the other few top contenders at that weight. I hope he accomplishes that goal. It would be awesome to see Gus go out on top. He deserves it.
I’m a huge fan of Gus, but moving to HW means more KO defeats & I cannot ask him to do that.
EVERYONE NEEDS A BREAK!!
Leg crosses: 4
Back to 205 would be the smart move. He has a win over Jan already. Sells itself.
Plot twist- it's actually Gus Johnson
Max ‘just did this himself’ Halloway
My single worst UFC memory is the decision going to the juiced cheater in gus vs jones 1. that one decision changed the trajectory for both fighters. Had that decision been rendered correctly, gus wd have gotten the opportunities, instead of that raging booger eater. those opportunities come once in a rare quadruple red moon and it takes a lot out of a fighter to lose to a loser...
Why? More than half the roster has been on steroids since UFC 1. Steroids are part of pro sports.
Yeah all these Dom Reyes fans squawking robbery..that was close too but the last 2 1/2 rounds were all Jones.Jones won maybe one round against Gus due to finally getting a takedown..benefit of the doubt.That was the real robbery.
Rumor has it Gus has hired the great Joshua fabia to train him!! Hell be unbeatable!!
Gus smoked Jan. Without jon or DC he could be the best LHW. Gus has huge potential there
Great video i wish also comeback the Viking...i think was unlucky
Leave it to Chael to say one of if not the most rested fighter since the end of 2015 needed a break.
I think this is bad news. The options are Polish Power or guys who are way too big for him. And no, the fighters up next to contest the heavyweight championship are not the wrong lens.
Jan would love to have a rematch against Gustaffson - especially since he won every rematch he had
Let's go Gus!
Gustafsson always reminds me of Charlie Hunnam in Sons of Anarchy
Alexander is a natural lhw he's got no business at hw, looked slow and out of shape imo
I want Gus back at 205 BIG TIME
Chael: "Alexander Gustafsson has announced that he is coming back..."
Me: "Oh no... why?!"
Chael "... thank goodness! Thank goodness!"
Me: "Ok, great"
He will go light heavyweight because he wants that strap. I think the Gus that fought Jones can beat anyone at light heavy weight right now no Jones no Dc no outstanding wrestler in the top 5 he can beat anyone standing up.
American Gangster vs The Golden Boy
TFC 8 round exhibition
I’d be the greatest exhibition of all time.
Why are you sharing this with us Uncle Chael?
gus holds dominant wins over both the guys contending for next LHW championship , he spent his entire time at LHW in shadow of JJ/DC, shouldn’t he go LHW now with both them gone ?
I’m so used to calling him Gus that I forgot his first name was Alexander
Uncle chael I'm coming to your neck of the woods like 5 miles or so. Can you tell me a must have foodie place maybe 3 please
From what I hear from Swedish outlets he's planning on coming back at heavyweight
He needs to go to light heavyweight I feel like he could’ve arguably won the fight against John and he also could’ve won the fight against DC so really he could’ve been champion twice and it’s a thin division he might as well go down there he could easily beat Jan And he already starched Glover and there’s really no one else in their division that can just overpower him he’s got a shot against anyone
Gus hasn't fought more than once a year since 2015, there was over a year between Smith and Werdum, he may need 5 or 6 more years of rest.
😆
Tell me why Chael
Anybody else remember when Whittaker needed a break and Chael shat all over him for it 😂
You can’t do that as champ though you’re literally just holding up a division
@@АлексейНиколаев-ч3р Chael was undefeated when he needed a break from Wanderlei's bad breath, Everyone deserves some r&r now and again.
Gus should go back to Light Heavy Weight, easier path with DC and Jon gone.. and i like his chances against Smith again.
He cant be talking about my favourite youtuber like that.
Bro if Gustafsson goes to heavyweight he will tear through the division he will probably get a title fight and I genuinely think he could beat miocic and nganou
Tito tapped!!!!!!!!!
I don't really understand his take here, the break between the Lionheart fight and the Werdum fight was over a year, its not even been a year since he fought Werdum which is less of a rest period. Gus is one of my favourite fighters but it seems like lazy rationale to say he's gonna be better because he's had nearly a year off, he already did that and lost.
Always liked Guss. Good luck man.
He just said straight up holloway is the best featherweight champ of all time and ortega is gonna take care of business with the Australian..so u know it must be true cause the "Gangster" said so😄😄
Gus at heavyweight makes no sense. If you look at him at LHW his biggest struggle was with guys with power (Rumble Johnson). Based on that he doesn’t stand a chance against Derek Lewis or Francis.
Jon is gone.....Jan is in... Gustufson is back hahahahahahaha Gustufson is getting that belt now!!!
This break narrative doesn't work. Gus fought once a year for his last 3 fights. Lost each one. Gonna come back this year to lose again. RIP
Volkov is going to be the next light heavyweight champion. That spinning elbow, he did on Dominick Reyes was one of the most disgusting moves I've ever seen MMA. Gus is coming back too a crazy division.
Volkov? XD
How d’ya like that?
I don't see Gus beating Nganou. On the other hand he already beat Blachowicz once. A good win in LHW and he could very well get a tittle shot.
I would love to see Gus vs Jones 2.
Sweden represent!!!
Gustafsson is done. That's a dumb idea to come back just to get a proper beating.
By the way European kickboxing is exciting fight style.
european mma has been on fire lately
I disagree! I'd explain it in detail all the reasons, but let's face it... you don't read comments, this is the Chael monologue show, not a discussion.
I’m excited!!!
Having Gus in the mix is fantastic!
Gus should do like francis and only pick people who won't take him down
When you have fought for the title, let alone TWICE, you know you’re in the correct weight division. 205 is the correct division. He did need a break though, for sure.
Two challenges right? Against Jones and dc. Then an interim belt fight with Jones. So 3 times he fought for the belt
@@stantheman2756 oh you’re right I forgot about DC somehow.
Not many people go up in weight and win. Gsp did who else? Weidman no rockhold no I hm who else idk I’m tired as fuck
@@MaynardOwns Oliveira went up from 145lb and has a 155lb title shot this weekend. More people go up in weight and succeed than go down.
