Every time I see John Morgan.. I think of Colby saying drop down and give me ten push ups
Yeah same here ahahah
This is going to age beautifully when Morgan has a commentary gig 10 years after Colby washes out. Might just make more over his career too, without any of the CTE, broken jaw or blown out knees. Wouldn't that be hilarious?!
@@utkarsh2746 Or he's having heart bypass surgery.
The only workout John Morgan does is the Cheeseburger bicep curl.
@@Boss_Scaggz EPO will clog up arteries too and Morgan has health benefits, Colby will be posting a go-fund-me for his. I'm sure you'll foot that bill. :)
From an Algerian to a Tunisian..Good luck my Maghrebi brother. Inshallah you smash it, no pun intended 👊
nchlh frr
This guy is humble and seems like an inteligent fighter with a high fight iq. Cant wait to see him in the future
Greeting to my 🇹🇳 Tunisian brothers.. your boy made us proud.. from a Moroccan-American
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
❤🇲🇦🇹🇳❤
shoutout to that kid for putting that fighter on the map💯💯🙏🏽
This is actual Dana White privilege
I hope everyone Dana Favors now loses
He will probably get pushed to the top
Lmao
@@TheAntManChannel I hope those fighter who always want the USA chant shit now loses, like Aljo, Colby etc.
@@Algojo LOL stay salty, momma's boy
Such an awesome fighting style, like a Tekken character with those step in elbows and knees
@Javier Martinez No shame in that brother, all fighters lose, this is mixed martial arts not boxing so keep your record clean of losses
huuuge respect to you ma brooo im moroccan and i love our tunisian brothers lets goooo mouniiiir i hope you win the belt
❤🇲🇦🇹🇳❤
This dude seems very humble
yeahbut its funny how he says he was the introvert kid LOL then he's a fuckin gladiator
No shit. He prays to Allah
Hear me out… I think the UFC is showing love to Jon Morgan because of how disrespected he was by Colby 🤣 this is just a way to say “sorry bro, we’ll make it up to you”
10 push-ups
Or maybe he's based in Las Vegas and would somewhat make sense to appear since he reports on MMA.
Flabby.....
I really can't stand that guy
Nah anti fat boy brigade
His fight with Warlley was a huge made mistake, he needed more time to be prepared for the top 15 lvl fighters, I mean now that he got Ali as a manager I think he'll be able to capitalize more from his past experiences, good luck to our Tunisian fellow.
God damn John Morgan looks like the goblin king from the hobbit
As a tunisian ppl only know us from 90 days fiancé 😂😂 but good mounir is here i hope he understand the game after the last fight i only hope the best for my homeboy❤ 🇹🇳✌🏼
👊
Tunisia is an irrelevant country no one cares abt that country
Zied was a much better man than Mohamed
As a non tunisian I have never heard of 90 days fiance but I know tunisians. So people don’t only know you from 90 days fiancé
@@jermainepryor8654 who are you talking about
Those kicks to the body in his fight were nasty
this guys got a chin and throws crash elbows out of neutral standup....i like him already!
Another striker….let’s go Dana…keep them coming….there’s more talent out there all around the world!
We are tired of these fucking wrestlers 😂😂
this guy seem like a good dude lets see what he can do in his next fight
1:25 I was listening to this video in the background, this just got me interested in this guy. Can't wait to see some of his fights. 4:01 - 4:09 just made me a fan of this guy. Great mindset, seems like a really intelligent dude.
Bruh I’ve been a fan of this beast since the desert force days🙏🏽👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾 it fuckin amazing that he made it to the ufc
Respect to you my brother - proud of you. Ive seen this guy grinding in the gym every day! And he’s always humble and always has time to talk! Reppin team Nogueira Dubai!
John Morgan talks really well for a guy with one lung.
Much love from Albuquerque New Mexico!
All the luck to this man, hope he can find it in himself to become champ
Looking forward for this man!!
The tunisi accent cracks me up . Reminds me of the dictator
From the movie ? 😂😂😂😂
@@zarits11mode23 yeah🤣🤣🤣
LW and WW are the 2 best division in the UFC. So stacked with fighters.
Thought we were getting some kind of update or something on Dominick Reyes for second there.
I don’t think he’s alive
Respect I'd love to visit Dubai one day otc Especially for a fight island event.
good story. origin stories are always inspiring. thank you for sharing yours mounir
From Algeria much love you Tunisian brother 🇩🇿❤🇹🇳
Great to see a fighter born and raised in maghreb getting into UFC. Cant wait to see his upcoming fights!!!
Sign me Dana i am taking over this mma meme game
مررت من هنا؟ إستغفر "لعلك تستغفر والله ينادي ملائكته في السماء اقضوا حاجة عبدي 💛
منير ربي يوفقك خويا إن شاء الله من الأحسن إلى الأحسن
Machalah akhi bon courage ☑️☑️☑️
This dude ain't no joke. Some folks in the UFC better get their hands act together or they gonna get smoked.
John seems like a decent guy. Just enjoys the sport
لست تونسي لكن نفرحوا لخونا و ندعموه للوصول للقمة نحن فخورين بك يابطل
This does not make sense when translated to English hahaha
@@701delbronx8 ok no problem ( Im not tunisian but im happy for my brother and we will support him to get the top we are proud of you champion ) i hope that is make sense to you now have nice day peace
@Babahadji Mohamed thanks brother
Let's go Mounir 💪
John morgan looks like the shark from finding nemo
once again its not what you know its who you know to get ahead in life
love his accent :)
Other than football, mma is easily the other sport that is truly international in terms of talent
Even more, its female fighters are becoming very popular too. Definitley more popular than female footballers
Uhh, tennis? MMA is nowhere top 10.
why u let Morgan do his job? He still has 10 pushups to do
He didn't ask a question here and Colby sadly doesn't run the UFC
@@lambdalambdalambda257 you must be the life of every party
@@ladsd679 😂😂😂😂
My brother 🙌🏻 future champ 🇹🇳
So proud
Good luck brother 💪🏻✊🏻🇲🇦✌
He looked so amazing first fight i dont get how he lost last one! He is very attractive fighter!
I remember that one, was a great debut, it was on the same night as Khamzats debut if I’m not mistaken. He just ran into a nasty vet in Alves in his second fight, I think his future is very bright.
Kicked in the liver, your bodily automatically shuts down after that
@@lamayama8476 Yea...same night as Chimeav! That night were so good performances..Him,Chimaev,Kattar..i was supriced! But he looked the best! Only problem is because he is 35 this yeaar! he is not that young,he doesn't have that much time..
if looks determined if you'd win a fight, Sage Northcutt would've been the goat by now
Gay
He is not arab, he is african... Tunesia is in africa not in the middle east. The fact that he speaks an arab dialect doesn't make him arab. I know enough people from Maurentania that speak arabic but are still considered african.
😂 don’t tell Dana white
Dumb axx Middle east is West Asia and North Africa and He is Arab.
Good on him. Good luck👍
Lazzez: "I'm trying to bring striking game to whole different level" Ngannou: that's number one BS .....
Elite striker 🔥🔥🔥
he has a great style !!
Cinderella story. Awesome!🐸🍺🔪🔥
Good job brro 👍👍❤️❤️
The most important wisdom I got from UFC, is that absolutely anyone can create a business that rivals and challenges the UFC, and by simply calling it something else. How is this possible? Simple.. You assume control and just do it.
Yes my brother
The guy is talking exactly as a movie character "The Dictator" LOL 😁
Good job
And Dana White fed him a monster.... but the kid came out with flying colours
I want to see Dana Whites son fight in the UFC
4:55 both muslim fighters prostrated to God
Wish he fought more then once every two years...
John Morgan GIVE ME 10!! Lmao
Tunisia❤❤
will always be my superstar!!!!!!
his accent is really really cool
Giving Mounir Abdul Razaq Al Hassan was brutal and Al Hassan is a beast. Mounir did well.
Let's go Mounir 🇹🇳
بالتوفيق منير 🇹🇳💯💪
بالتوفيق لخصمه
I guess these guys do not like Mousassi
@Al Ank Still considered middle eastern just not an arab I guess you gotta be sunni for them to recognize they show khabib all the love
GJ Brother
2:06 real life Jabba the Hutt
Hope to see anas siraj mounir in the ufc one day
He is not arab he is north african. Thats why he is good.
great striker
The new Yair Rodriguez 😂
John Morgan Returns!
That’s cool 🔥👍🏼
I’m glad dana signed him to a 20 fight contract for $25,000 PLUS bonuses.
Great Story
May god bless you!
I really want to know how John Morgan became a UfC Reporter
He's an MMA reporter not UFC. And in the early days of MMA it was real simple. If you had a website or a column you were instantly an MMA reporter.
@@lambdalambdalambda257 yeah but he hasn’t been around since early days of UFC has he? How could it be that the UFC hires people like him with no qualifications also? it seems the UFC is packed with annoying reporters or journalist like him. They should have more people like Dan Hardy doing the Job, people that have a Mixed martial arts Background. John Morgan is very annoying and it’s crazy much money he makes being a reporter for the UFC not to mention always being in every other interview or asking the first questions all the time
@@joescaletta9665 i don’t understand how he always gets first questions lol guy takes all the good questions, the other reporters must hate that shit
Let’s go bratha !
Why am I not surprised that no one seems to have a problem with them leaving this up lmao
Holy shit, it’s flabby butt
10 push ups
@@Tiktokshopsecrets flabby butt was funnier lowkey lol
still long way to go, good luck ^^
I like mounir lazzez is very good fighter 💪
debut 2020?where is he now?
his accent is a slow mo of Darren Till
Interesting man
Tunisia Stand up!!
Him vs garry please🔥
Tunisian accent sounds a permanent r sound in “arrrrrrrriba”
Bro welterweight is stacked
Last goo 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
🇹🇳🇹🇳🇹🇳 our champ 💪
Dana whites sons “good friend” aka Kinahan
We are Tunisians 🇹🇳🔥
He was my trainer at TND
Where ?
@@zarits11mode23 I think it's Team Noguira Dubai.He trains and teaches there.
