How iconic is Gaethje struggling to get onto the fence twice, still going for it again and sticks a clean backflip 😎 Legend.
Legend? Yes. Balls bigger than beach balls? Absolutely.
@@joshuamullins5451 lmaooo it’s true tho, other people would’ve stopped and been like nah if I try that now I’ll land on my head Gaethje is like “eh fuck it yolo I guess”
@@SwoleakhulTheBlind eh, I kinda get the sense that Gaethje's whole life has kinda been lived to the tune of "eh fuck it, lets go"
Also iconic that he continually disrespects the staff. Cut men and security. He has a habit of pushing and disrespect. He's an asshole
Justin is a one dimensional bum
i had no idea korean zombie’s twister was in his debut damn
For real what a legend
was thinking the exact same thing
That was a rematch between Zombie and Garcia. Their first fight was in WEC and between those two fights Korean Zombie was viciously knocked out by George Roop. So it was Jung's debut but he was around for a while
@@skurwienieodmulenie9747 yeah I remember being hyped for the rematch. Considering why the hell the judges were on crack in their first fight lol
Yeah that should of been #1. Legit debut
“He may not know where he is, but he’s standin up!” 😭💀
That was funny asf
I laughed so hard
Hahahaha
Sounds like most town centres in the UK at kicking out time.
Who's that commentator?
That Johnson-Gaethje fight was an insane roller coaster. It was one of those fights where the longer it went the more sucked having to remember someone’s gotta lose.
Both fighters got permanent brain damage...what could be better?
@@joemarshall4226 shut up bro
Right, both performed amazingly.
I thought Gaejthe was doooone

It’s easy to forget how unreal Conor was. The finish of Brimage was some of the most accurate, sniper-like striking I’ve seen.
Absolutely true now the UFC is full of band wagon fans who don't like him or make fun of him simply because he lost a few fights .... pathetic if you ask me to not see his talent as a fighter
@@sadflute8639 only cuz he lost a few fights in a row** his reign is over he wont be champ again.

He was something the UFC and the mma world all together had never seen. There's a video breaking down the science behind his fight with Alvarez and its incredible
"Easy when you're fighting midgets"...
The fact that Korean Zombie got a twister on his UFC debut is incredible I’ve gotta admit one of my favourite debuts is Houston Alexander knocking out Keith Jardine
I won't count it as UFC debut cuz he came from wec , the guy he beat was actually their second fight , first one was in wec I recommend it
@@shaysolomons2492so you wouldn't call it his UFC debut despite it being his UFC debut? I get UFC absorbed WEC but doesn't mean he walked out under the UFC lights for his first fight lmaoooo
@@travismiller1491 fair enough
Gaethje failing at cage climbing gets me everytime! 😁😁😁
Look like it hurt too, did you see how his leg bounced like that, I felt that 😆😆😆
Makes me cringe a lil
So funny

Reminds me of a stunned cockroach trying to climb up a wall
CM Punk's UFC debut was also memorable.
Haha for allll the wrong reasons...
🤣🤣🤣if not the most memorable
hey at least he tried, its a lot more than the majority of people can say
memeable*
@@mawortz "Do or do not, but don't try"
"60 Gs babbbyyy"... my gawd he had no idea what was in store for him..
Also Conor (2021): THIS IS NOT OVER!
Undeserved if you ask me. The fight against Mayweather was an embarrassment, a marketing success, but a complete embarrassment. It was the moment where I stopped being a fan. How he went after him in the beginning, flailing about, and then seeing him get tired by round 6 was embarrassing to watch. When all he had to do is pace himself. Practically falling over himself by the end. Connor got that money from marketing.
2:45 to 2:50 - Anderson catches Leben with a counter jab and a backstepping left straight, staggers him with the counter, then head kicks him from short range and drops him with a 1-2 all in 5 seconds without taking a single hit. insane.
Fell like part of it has to do w how the other guy threw his punches 😂😂
@@franciscomagallon3364 yeah, wide looping shots without head movement
You have to hit Leben many times to get his interest or defeat him. That guy's chin was so freaking insane.
@@mikeg3439 that Terry Martin fight was crazy!
Michael Johnson’s sister bouncing up and down in the background and then disappearing will always be iconic
Wait I saw this😂 what happened she like fell forward?
Shes in China now

After all those videos of jds getting knocked out they finally did him something good
Lol right
That's what happens when the OLD....get fed to the YOUNG
@@jsmooveSNEAKERHEAD arlovski too
Bro fr they doing the legends so dirty these days
IMO JDS should be retired after he beat Derrick lewis
I've always been a big fan of Michael Chandler especially when he was the face of Bellator. I'm glad he was able to execute what he's known for in his UFC debut, especially as the co-main event of McGregor v. Poirier.
Bet your happy after his last fight
All of the debuts are impressive however the fact that Chan sung Jung has one of the first twister finishes in the UFC for his debut is pretty damn impressive ❤
It was THE first twister wasnt it?
Imagine Gaethje vs Chandler ends in a draw. Both doing a back flip from the cage. 😂😂
*plot twist: after a well synchronized backflip, they got a contract with the Cirque Du Soleil.
Who celebrates a draw tho 🤔
@@kingwan4051 a champ of course Because u didnt lose your belt
@@kingwan4051 a champ 👍
So if champ vs interim champ ends in a draw, they both keep their belt?
Justin shoving the commissioner (or whoever) at 1:37 after is failed backflip attempt is hilarious. “Nah fuck off this flip is mine.”
🤣🤣
He apparently got fined for that. The ref was just trying to enforce a dumb rule I think.
@@fernandovalencia5411 I mean, fighters sometimes injure themselves while celebrating like Johnny Walker. Or Gaethje himself when he landed on the cameraman
@@looka698 Cameraman shoulda moved.
@@looka698 fuck the cameraman
I like when he says " IT IS ALLLL OVEEERRRRRR"
8:37 no one mentions how beautiful this feint takedown gets him to sprawl and lose the fight. Clean work by Joe.
WOW holy shit
Very nice.
I was looking for that Comment... took a while
TKZ avenging his loss against Garcia in his UFC debut via a Twister is just crazy
@brasi luca Leonard Garcia had a knack for undeservingly beating Asian fighters.
@Generic Username I am actually making a joke cause Leonard Garcia has two well-known, undeserved wins, both against Asians.
Bro your fuckin thumbnail man 💀
“He doesn’t even have the energy to celebrate” Does a backflip from 9 feet in the air
Him falling from the cage like a limp dummy, sent my ass straight to Heaven though LOL 💀😂😂🤣😭
While Gaethje is whupping on MJ against the cage "THEY MAY BOTH HAVE TO TAP OUT DUE TO EXHAUSTION!"
People have torn their acls with that celebration more than once
Initially it seemed that way, buffoon.
That’s gotta be an amazing feeling when you win your debut. Sitting on the fences must be an absolutely amazing feeling. Ik from playing sports when you get a big moment like that, it’s like the greatest feeling ever.
Silva is my favorite fighter of all time. Love that man.

Gaethje. What a warrior. He basically fought being KOd and still managed to FDup an elite fighter while not knowing if he was alive. That is a spirit. A warrior. My respects.
And then being able to pull off a perfect backflip with all that leftover vertigo.

Michael Johnson was a great fighter but he was never elite
debatable. johnson was 9-7 in the ufc by the time he fought gaethje. now hes 12-14.
@@knuckle-sandwichmma681 thing is Johnson goes in either a beast or a terrible fighter. Dude is dice roll definitely considered something if you just ko Poirier in the first round

You mean Anderson "sees bisping talking to the ref so perfect opportunity to sucker knee" Silva, yeah whatever.

Michael Chandler is the type of guy to impress Me with His Performance
Finally a fresh joke on the type of guy. Thanks you 😂
I think I can beat him even without my wrestling - An Eagle
Dan was in 2 of the most brutal wars in a long time in the ufc right before that and lost both so I don't think he was or will be the same after the poirer fight I think chandler is great but they knew what they were doing with that match-up they pushed him so hard why the hell did he get to be a fucking title fight back up and he never even had a single fight in the ufc before that its kinda weird to me
Chandler would lose to Emanuel yarborough
Im not impressed by his performance
Gaethje walks forward like terminator no matter what. Its insane. One of my favorite fighters ever that the UFC signed. Hes just awesome!
Do Bronx humbled him big time 🇧🇷
Man those combos by Mcgregor back then were SICK!! Especially his 4 punch combo on Eddie Alvarez to become the 1st ever UFC 2 seperate weight class World champ! Love him(I do. But I'm also half Irish) or hate him you gotta be honest about how skilled he really was !
That Twister from Zombie....pure gold!

@@captainbtn yep you're right. Or was it Mike Perry?
That was a great video. No bullshit. Just fantastic highlights. Thank you.
It may not have been shown in this clip but the Griffin and Bonner fight is what launched the UFC to a new height as they punched each other in the face the whole fight and nobody backed down. I was watching this on our local channel and it gave me chills watching these two warriors battled it out as the whole crow just stood up until the end. I won't forget "So you want to be an ultimate fighter" line by the commentator.
2:48. The original 3 piece. One of the greatest punch combos ever recorded in a UFC fight. All three elements in sync. The speed, force, and accuracy of those punches. You could see the force.
Cool but What the hell do u mean by " the original"? I hope you're talking about a cuban journeyman here.....
@@gamebred6995 wrong
@Cryforequanimity 😂😂😂😂
It was nice but one of the greatest combos? Bit of a stretch.
Forest Griffin vs Stephen Bonnar Was the first Legendary Classic Fight 👍🏼
Not really. It brought the UFC to the masses but there were plenty of legendary fights before that.
@@funnymcfunfuns1455 Name some then.
@@ibrahimtall6209 Ok, that was in 2005. we can go back to the early 1990s. Royce v ken. Royce v Kimo. Royce v Severn. most of the Tank Abbot fights. Shamrock v Severn. Ruas v Varelans. those are all truly legendary classic matchups and great fights and that is just the first 7 UFC events. I can go on and on.
@@funnymcfunfuns1455 none of those fights compare to the Bonnar vs Griffin match. Not even close. You are trying to compare a match that the UFC put in the HoF against just random fights with big names that don't make anyone's top 50 UFC fights of all time.
LoL... I love how Justin couldn’t even climb the cage at first, literally fell off ! 🤣 ... but still went and did his backflip he loves so much. 👏👏
A walk down memory lane. Loved this
JDS was absolutely one of the scariest fighters in the UFC back in the days. His one punch KOs are brutal.

Conor fought so much better when 60 grand was a big amount of money, he's that rich now he's probably getting 60k a day in interest on its own, I can't see him getting anywhere near the position of becoming a word champion again.
@@aboutthemetal8783 I think his time is done. The fighters are getting better.

He is absolutely incredible. His style is very unique

@José Flores he said toughest not best.Meaning he was the level of difficulty
Justin faced the most adversity
He basically destroyed Johnsons career well him and khabib ofc
I remember watching the first Forest Griffin and Stephan Bonnar fight live. To this day that is still the greatest fight I've ever seen. The cherry on top was Dana giving them both contracts in the end.
