After stumbling and suffering losses to two former champions, Gaethje put together a streak of finishes culminating with an upset TKO victory over Tony Ferguson for the interim lightweight title at UFC 249.

I love how Trevor Whitman's impression of Justin sounds like someone doing an impression of Homer 😂😂😂
@Imineti I didn't say it was a good impression 😂😂😂
@Imineti for reals it's just like Ernie or Kermit
Am I the only one who feels that he’s tough enough to make it? 28-1
You should hear them together on Joe Rogans podcast, it's the funniest thing!

Almost every interview I heard from Justin , he always said since he was 4 years old i was like we get it we.get it🤣🤣
Justin gaethje is the reason I am now addicted to MMA. I came across couple of KZhead videos of some of his old fights and became hooked on watching him fight. After that I just started watching MMA all the time now I am a huge fan and I am pulling for Justin.
Welcome to the MMA family 👊👊
How long ago was this that u got involved if I may ask
He’s not even a real champion

I respect Gaethje. He was the underdog this whole time. Win or lose, I know he'll put on a great show. I hope this ages well
I am from the future where he gets submitted by face smesher ...I hope this ages well
He’s is not a real champion and I don’t think he will be a real champion This will age well

Gonna be an epic fight!!!
UFC just wants to sell PPVs.Gaethje is not at the level of Khabib...
kzhead.info/sun/atWceduRhWWfpIE/bejne.html
khabib will smesh him
My biggest takeaway from this video is they called vick a top contender
At the moment of the fight he was beating everyone, after that fight his chin leave him alone.
Vick was literally released from the ufc yesterday. Look at him after that fight, heck, look at the the hand raise at the end of their fight. Imagine where these guy's would have been if things played out
@@iamlogiebear 4 fight losing streak
Does anyone else remember the "run like a bitch" statement by Gaethe in this fight's press conference?
Vick was on a winstreak before fighting justin and justin knock his ass out and after that vick chin doesn't the same anymore lol
Ferguson is the real hero for eating that many bombs and some how still going.
It's a bit worrying when someone mentioned that Tony should retire. Has anyone checked to see if he is ok? If he fights again, will be be putting his brain at risk? Should he retire?
Ferguson is an idiot who made zero adjustments and took that much of punishment. It's not a great thing to take so much damage.
@@mmohon93 exactly. there was no upside to taking the fight against Justin. If he won he would face Khabib, which he was scheduled to anyway. If he lost, he lost the chance to fight for the championship. On top of it he had no answer to Justin and considering Justin didn't even do anything special (just stuck to basis boxing and leg kicks).
Its dumb tbh ..
That doesn't make him a hero, it makes him stupid. If he had someone to throw the towel early in the fourth he might have walked away with less brain damage. Tony won't ever be the same. That was a career altering beating
The scariest thing is how bad he absolutely demolished Tony Ferguson.
And the way he was dominated by Khabib was and it is still hard to fathom
@@alhassangangu4357 Exactly. Ferguson was already washed out with a knee surgery on his resume that made him submit no one after the recovery, which showed that his knee flexibility (required for his BJJ rubber guard) was gone for good. My brother also had the same surgery, and he can't fully bend his knee even after 3 years since the surgery (with a ton of physiotherapy). My brother is 23 now, so age also matters when it comes to recovery. Ferguson was old. Khabib would've dominated Ferguson even worse than Gaetje did.

Hey rogan. The justin impression by Whitman is classic! ... whatchutalkingbout! 🤣
One think people here ignoring this upcoming about and that is Justin's bone density and his muscle mass there's a reason why he can knock someone out with both right or left hands because of his bones the weight of his bones and the weight of his muscles he has a powerful punch. how many people do you see doing backflips off the top of the cage can you imagine how much impact there is on his shins when he lands there his body's built differently and I think he's going to show that in this fight. He might just bleed his opponent more than he's ever been bled he may hurt his leg more than he's ever been hurt and may be hard for him to get around on one leg and his vision being hampered by Blood and that may just throw him off his game but everybody thinks he's going to throw Justin around like a rag doll... He might not be able to do that this time... Justin has a very good chance of winning.
