Like Sean a lot, but been watching Dricus since he's very first fight, he dominated EFC, two division champ, ksw champ, undefeated UFC champ. Very proud of him, Cyrus fees once said, there is no limits to where he's career could go, and here we are. He looks different but he's got that dog in him, and heart of a lion
Kuk.
More octagon side videos! 💯🔥
Thats the problem about this sport wrestlers are going to say ddp won and strikers will say sean won. In my opinion takedowns without any signifigant damage dont mean much strikes should always out shadow takedowns without bien at least half a min on the floor his face said it all all those strikes in the face shoulda made him ahead
ddp won easily
The jab sets up everything. DDP face doesn’t look like the elephant man just from jabs my friend. It was a close fight that should have went to Strickland based off the damage done.
Is it only me or DC's tongue is turning into a heavyweight
Today, those who make the champion are the useless judges Strakland robbed in the face 😊
DC what were your thoughts when you saw DDP kiss his coach?
Sean won 3 of the 5 rounds man one of the judges said Sean won the 3rd round but not the 2nd round wtf can we all agree Sean won round 2
Sean definitely won that fight I've watched it twice an don't see how din Thomas comments on the aftershow stating sean only won 1 round. Smdh what fight was he watching
Your first problem is you think like a judge. Ever heard the saying “don’t leave it in the hands of the judges”? Most the real fighters and Dana himself said Sean won sooooooo.
DDP’s hay makers missed all night long. He had a half assed takedown that’s it. Oh yeah and a head butt.
Yeah yeah that’s what I’m saying 😂😂😂🙄🙄
Yeah, DDP led the entire night — led with his face into Strickland's fists. You shouldn't be able to "steal a round" by blitzing a take-down the last minute of a round. That's not "winning a fight," that's gaming the scoring system.
How did DDP win Rd 2. Yeh he landed his first shots for the fight but only a couple landed.
With such a close fight the obvious decision should be an immediate rematch. But since that appears to not be happening, could it be that Sean Strickland was robbed as Dana White said, you have to take it from the champ and Dricus Du Plessis did not do that… Perhaps certain individuals are nothing more than a corporate lackey's pushing the narrative that Sean Stickland lost the fight because of the so-called controversial interview with Sean Strickland. Truly hope this is not the case as the UFC is one of the last sports that appears not to be catering to this so called wokeism. And if certain individuals like Judges, Commentator's and others are selling out to corporate or political pressure or corporate advancement, it's only going to diminish this great sport.
DC: I allowed Dricus to hug his family before the post fight interview even tho I don’t do that😂😂😂😂
DC did you forget that if this was in the USA, Rogan would be doing the octagon interview? I actually used to love you as a commentator but you show your true colors when fight week is over and you can say what you want. Stop crying about Jon Jones every week and move the fuck on, it’s sad to see a “double champ” be so bitter
Dc: Eric Nicksick has a good eye for knowing that Sean was down…… WRONG.
Eric is a coach who knows the fight was close but deep down he knew Sean was winning, the judges are just so fucking stupid and so are you DC. Jon owned you in every fight but you STILL talk shit about him cus your so bitter. I used to love DC until he got so political in MMA but now the fraudulent double champ shows his true colors.
I agree with all the comments on DC. Great fighter and great commentator.
***Du Plessis shocks everyone by winning a fight that he actually lost😂
DC was wasted in that draft kings advertisement lol
I think Strickland one the fight
You ever see a champion look so beat up winning the belt.
I thought ddp would’ve had to knock Sean out to win
Everything Sean has said, and posted about other people so far, posting about Ian Garry, i didnt know about ian till his video where all over the net, all done by Sean Strickland, all the child mole s t ation and attacking his opponent as they sat to watch a fight in crowd, just think of everyting be saying about lqbtq and everything if Izzy had done half of that, if any black man had dont that, imagine whether they will liked or sht all over.
its a world race minded people and these should be called out.
look at the hate for Kamaru Usman when he was champ, for Ngannou till now they just keep quiet, see the hate for Izzy, you ask are these really that bad what did they really do?
and imagine one of they talk like Sean was talking down on to everyone like the presser was only about him. imagine the whole medi will explode and call him arrogant, this and that.
Imo you need to get out of commentating “brother”, listening to you glaze Ddp all night while he got worked was shameful. You’re so bias, idk if you try to be so blatant on purpose a “devils advocate” maybe but not once did you give Sean credit even though he was objectively winning most of the fight. Dom was right about you.
All I know for a fact is if that had been Izzy with those same exact stats he would have decisively won and everyone would be glazing him talking about his striker. The ufc SHOULD be ashamed of what happened but of course they don’t care they got rid of the outspoken advertising hazard. That’s all they care about. Same as you, you’re a “company man” you’re never gonna disagree with what Disney wants.
Had Sean edging it out 1-3-5. 1 and 2 clearly Strickland. Round 3 he just beat out DDP in strikes and DDP had zero takedowns. The takedowns he did score, he did nothing with Sean popped back up. If we are talking about damage… look at DDP's face which looks like he was beat with a tin mug. Sean had superficial cuts and blood once wiped dude looked like was on on a jog. Not a "robbery" per say, very close competitive fight. Opinion wise, which can be supported by the stats… Strickland won. 3:20 there were no DDP takedowns in Round 3 DC.
Sean won rounds 1,3, and 5
True Good Man👊 I think this was Strickland best fight so far. He needs to work on more attacks and combos after his jab.
Drake sucks
DC was one of my favorite fighters I think he's even better behind the camera MMA is lucky to have him
Strickland won
Strickland won that fight
I wish we had these judges for the petr vs omalley fight, those take downs would've won the fight
last ufc event i watch, this shit has become as corrupt and dogshit as boxing, good luck dana pink
Can this dude miles get tf outta shot next time? Clearly lingering for whatever reason 😅
Dricus's takedowns amounted to nothing, Strickland won that fight. Rematch.
Strickland claiming the cut was caused by a headbutt is such a MAGA move, couldve been coming from Covington
Everybody talks about the damage DDP sustained proving Sean victorious. This only proves the toughness of the South African heart. This damage was taken in round 1 and part of round 2 and what did DDP do? He opened a can of whoop ass with 1 eye shut. The minute Sean started sustaining damage he started backpedaling, DDP never backpedaled when he was being hit. Sean speaks a big game of toughness but doesn’t walk the talk. Doesn’t push through an assault, take the blows to achieve the goal and assert dominance. Then makes excuses for his lack of performance in the later rounds due to a headbutt, not a clash of heads (if that was even the cause). DDP showed all round why he deserves to be a champion to be respected.
2-3 for dricus I don’t think so but who am I
Dricus Du Plessis vs Isreal Adesanya in South Africa.
You don't give the spilt decision to a challenger wtf
Sean won that's it
Well if the ufc releases one of the young killers,DDP will be one & done .
bullshit dc. watch it back and say sean lost! used to listen to your opinion but fight are scored on damage! strickland only had one cut from a headbutt. bullshit dc
It's going to take Dricus alot longer to recover from that beating than Sean from that head butt…which clearly shows who really won that fight… 💥
Du Plesis shocks Sean ? Sean literally just beat Du Plesis lol
