There's a huge difference between the way Zhang was hitting the mitts compared to Esparza. I think it will be a quick night for Zhang.
Frfr
yeah Carla's only shot is to wrestle, but zhang's gonna be too explosive and powerful for any of that to work
for sure, zhangs the biggest lock this week imo
Zhang said "I respect Carla a lot, I really wanna show my skills that night" lmaooo she's going to beat the breaks off Carla hahahahaha she said it as nice as possible
Carla don’t deserve all this hate man .. not her fault blame the judges
"Showing the best of myself is how I show respect for my profession and my opponent!" - What a great mindset! Huge respect for her Zhang
Zhang is a great fighter. Also, on my channel I did a video which analyses "The Keys To Victory For Pereira Against Adesanya"... you need to check it out!
Agree, a great approach.
I would be fucking scared of being her opponent
The more prepared I am to punch you in the face, the more respect I show you.
@@BxngWorld tell us more about how Charles us going to beat Islam. You seemed pretty sure of that before
Watching Carla’s kicks and you can see the difference in power between her and Zhang. Zhang is on a different level
Carla looks like my lil sister hitting mitts
Shut up dude
Zhangs team literally had an explanation regarding power output in training.... You clearly haven't watched the video lmao.
Can we all just appreciate how great ufc embedded is? The insight into UFC fight preparation is simply unmatched
I think it really gives the more common fan a great insight to how long and hard these athletes train for a 3-5 round fight. Like it’s not just oh yea I hopped in the cage. It’s no I’ve been grinding for 3 months for this fight. Embedded is the best thing since TUF to connect with the more casual fans
Facts I just wish they were longer
I feel like I've bonded with the fighters through this series. I love it!
@@nathanognibene448 facts you get to see the human that goes inside the cage
Bots??
There's a clear and quite extreme difference in strength and speed between Esparza and Weili.
This is going to be very entertaining. Also, on my channel I did a video which analyses "The Keys To Victory For Pereira Against Adesanya"... you need to check it out!
I'm not a fan but I am genuinly worried for her. I don't know why she just didn't walk off into the sunset after the 2nd rose fight
Weili is borderline super-human, the way she ran through Andrade was insane.
technique as well, Weili chains her power extremely well, while Carla is kinda throwing arm punches, and not turning her hips over with the kicks.
@@Cerus-kd2mv because the champ PPV points will change her life even in one fight
Things like the embedded series is the reason why the UFC is so dominant. Its not just the fights, its not just the medias and entertainment, its not just the fighters personalities. Its all those mixed together, constantly.
Facts!!
Ok Dana
@@nicobr00 lol dana burner account😆
I read this in Dana’s voice
@@akash-dsouza not just the PPVs but fighters as a group only get around 17~18% of overall revenue (including PPVs, sponsorship money, guaranteed money from ESPN and other broadcasters, merch etc.)
It's something else to see Weili train. So intense, respectful and dangerous. Nothing against Carla but unless there's an injury, Weili via molecular decimation
Glover getting emotional for Alex becoming champion is something I didn't expect, they love this guy.
I live very close to bethel CT where both guys are located they are really good guys. They’ll literally stop and have a conversation with you at the grocery store extremely humble.
What a difference in intensity in both the training and the team’s attitude between Weili and Carla. Carla’s coach seemed concerned, while Weili’s whole team was hyped and ferocious
Keep Doubting Carla🤣
Man I am scared for Carla on this match!
Wrestler lol wat u thinking
I absolutely love Weili's striking. It's beautiful and vicious.
@@BigSoldiermx don't act like she even fought in her last fight. Both literally did nothing 💀
Wow massive props to glover teixiera for opening his own gym. A real legend of the game man. Easily a hall of famer and one of the most underrated fighters in ufc history

He wouldn’t last 2 minutes with me I’m a dog man , I get suped up on my super male vitality there is no stopping me
@@uh2187 imagine hating iron Mike
Nothing but respect for Glover - what an inspirational great guy
"This is how I show respect to my opponent." *clip of weili absolutely smashing pads*
Exactly...showing respect by training hard
I can’t imagine Carla vs Weili going any other way than Carla getting eaten alive
Yea her win was a fluke
There's a pretty good chance Carla wraps up Weili and submits her.
That fight is going to be a slaughter
Ilia Topuria said on an interview, "when I enter the cage I feel like a champion already because I train as hard as I can and that's a victory", I'm getting the same vibes from Zhang
@@Smokingthatquandopack not really a fluke but definitely not the champ
Esparza looks sharp motivated and she done some new things for this fight. Being around this long at the very top just shows how much passion she has for the game. Weili via vicious KO in the first round.
😂
😂👊🏼💯
CHINA WILL CELEBRATE SATURDAY NITE.
I hate when I hear coaches of female fighters saying they are putting them up against men to train for a strong women because those men are never going to give their full strength and certainly not going to use aggression so when they fight that strong female who uses all their strength and aggression the female fighter can't deal with it. It's just like Megan Anderson who said she was sparring men to prep for Amanda and one punch from Amanda and you could tell she had never been hit like that in her life. This 'training with men' thing only gives false confidence!
@@lukemurray4950 perfect point
Weili is coming into this fight in incredible shape! Not only shape, but her technical ability and focus look extremely sharp. I think she will be our next female champion! 🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳
I haven’t placed a bet on a UFC fight in years… I think I’m going to place a bet on this fight lol.
How Rose had more willingness to stand with Weili, but completely run away from Esparza….I’ll never understand
She didn't want to ruin the wedding pictures
Zhang is an absolute mashine, impressive strengh.
Yep she's my man
Machine* stay in school kid
@@samueldenis573 lmao
No way she loses

@@BxngWorld you're a causal in boxing an for sure your don't know shyt about ufc..
Zhang practicing the walkout is dope.
Can’t wait to see Magnum back in there! Let’s go get that belt back 💪🏻
That face off between Izzy and Pereira gonna hit a whole different way than it did the last two times. They need to make a movie about their story. Like Rocky but obv their version of it.

In my book. Glover is the official BMF. Everything about him is badass.
Right, for example tapping to Jiří in 5th round🥵
Such a humble dude. Crazy he's almost 44
They begin 🔥. Love the embeddeds ❤️🔥
Great card. Excited to see the Esparza - Weili bout. Both amazing fighters. Interested to see how Karla deals with Zhangs POWER. Coach Oyama is super smart.
What a crew Weili has to prepare her for this fight! Her dedication is presented not just by her own efforts but also those who work around her.
i don't want to disappoint you but she's not from japan, i know once cartoon fans see someone that has an asian face they start to love them and cheer for them thinking they're from japan or whatever.
@@Youssef-hd5bl what are you on about
@@Youssef-hd5bl I don't know what that means but let's go Weili!
UFC Fans switched on Weili wen Rose beat her bandwagon🤣
The crew is brilliant bro. Also, on my channel I did a video which analyses "The Keys To Victory For Pereira Against Adesanya"... you need to check it out!
I remember seeing the news that Alex Pereria was pursuing MMA, I thought to myself "Oh this fight will never happen, some wrestler will expose him". At yet here we are, crazy when a good storyline comes together
This is beyond hollywood story haha
That's why they put him against Strickland lmao the UFC fast tracked this fight on purpose and it's obvious😂
He got babied to title shot…. Easiest path to title shot ever
@@teamshox like 7 fights in mma compared to izzy’s 24, definitely don’t see him beating izzy unless it’s a one well timed or set up shot
Ufc kept him the hell away from elite wrestlers to preserve the cash cow that is this fight 💯
There's something very natural about Carla that differs from your average female mixed martial artist. Whatever she has it was achieved by dedication and hard work. She doesn't look like a machine or a steroid injected fiend. Everyone is counting her out. And, one thing I've learned from this sport is NEVER COUNT ANYONE OUT.
She might be an actual biological female lol
Agreed - I am also a little skeptical about Weili and I am actually a fan of hers... China treats their athletes like an extension of their national pride rather than as individuals. It is super important to them that they dominate in sports. Considering that most raw hormones, peptides and designer drugs are produced there, it wouldn't be a stretch to think that they "request" that she take some PEDs. I'm not sure it would even be up to her. USADA doesn't go testing athletes in Thailand and a lot of peptides and hormones are in and out of the system quickly. Her face does have more masculine traits and lots of DHT looking acne too.
@@Mr-E. Speaking absolute 100% facts. She's definitely been on the sauce and I'd say its almost certainly government sanctioned.
@@Mr-E. unfortunately, your favourite athlete is on PEDs. USADA testing is a joke.
@@nathanclearyschin7100 proof?
It’s time for Embedded! So excited for UFC 281, Izzy vs Alex Pereira and Chandler Vs Dustin are going to be amazing 🔥🔥🔥👏👏👏
Zhang is a monster in that division
But got head kicked by Rose👋
Stop riding Carla every comment lmao, you're gonna cry once she gets destroyed

@@BigSoldiermx True, that's the nature of the sport though. Anything can happen. Ex. Leon Edwards vs Kamaru Usman
The way Carla was kicking and hitting the pads couldn’t even hurt my 7 year old lil sister. Rip 🪦 Carla you will be missed
Keep Doubting Carla💰
its fight week, you don’t hit pads as hard as possible especially when you’re nearing the end of camp . Islam was baby slapping bags by the end of his camp
you don't train 100% every time. That is stupid.

Really admire Carla for sticking in there with her career and grinding back to the title, but she’s gonna get merked badly in this one! zhang is just way to fast twitch for her.
She was gifted the title in one of the ufc worst title fights in history. She hardly earned it to b fair she gonna get fn steamrolled by zhang
Keep Doubting Carla🤣

@@youknow2849 she definitely earned her way to the shot though, rose threw the fight away but it's at least partially because she didn't want to get wrestlefucked and submitted by carla again so in a way she earned the title too. it was a terrible terrible fight don't get me wrong, but she did grind her way to the shot.
Let’s go Zhang !!! So professional, so respectul , she deserves it ! Get it !

He’s got a winners mentality
weili is such a badass martial artist… she’s one of my favorite fighters for sure from technique to mindset.

I predict someone gettinng kicked in the face, probably for trying a takedown (I am usually wrong)
@@eliasekstrom6660 yeh you probably are :) id say it is gonna be the obvious meeting of better striker and stronger puncher. Either Izzy by decision/TKO after 3th round or Alex by KO in first 2-3 rounds
The style these guys have? Pereira is extremely aggressive. It's Issy that doesn't brawl.

He'll yeah!! Feng Wei is gonna tear Esparza a new azzhole!!!
According to every fighter, every fight camp is the best camp they've ever had.
Great adesanya is training to run the entire fight ... so much for a great fight
The fact that Esparza is training with men shows me she has built up the strength for a long, grueling wrestling match with Weili. With that being said, Weili by head kick in the 2nd half.
😂😂
Rose head kicked Weili made her 2.0🤣

I love the bit where Carla’s coach made sure she trained with men heavy to replicate what she would actually be up against sheesh
Esparza was ground and pounding the pizza delivery guy, it seemed like 4:15
Aw man Israel just gave me flashbacks..My Girl 1991 Macauley Culkin was the boy who died bc he got stung by bees..such a good movie..ah I miss the old days
Much love from Albuquerque New Mexico
Carla looks abysmal on the pads Jesus Christ💀💀💀
Honestly she has no excuse to be this bad at strikingwith her experience in mma, to not even look good on the pads and have really bad shadowboxing just does not inspire any confidence in her. I hope she puts up a good fight at least
@FuckMMAfans Yeah but they don't look this bad when they've been either a champion or a top contender for the better part of a decade
@FuckMMAfans with a username like that and a comment like that I have a feeling youre biased XD. Go fight one and find out
Alex should do a challenge like "how long before I mention the Isreal knock out" challenge
he has a right to mention it as many times as he wants though. He will KO izzy again also
still better than the Elsa line smh
The way Zhang picked up ngannou like he was a fortune cookie, go for a submission at this point Carla
Can't wait!!!!
All the best to the CKB team!
We are back fellas and fella’etes. It’s time. Episode 1 - It’s realer than real. LFG! It’s so good to see Glover transition into a coach, and have some great fighters under his belt - I’m waiting for the little Peirera to come to the dark side.
Wayles training is the best I've ever seen
Carla Esparza is a 2-time UFC Champion on a 6-fight winning streak who also won TUF. Win or lose, she has always been game, and deserves respect.

that reflex work looked so cool
We are all expecting a Thai heavy master class MMA style for the main event what if someone wins by submission !!! Can’t wait for what will be ,Epic !
Yeah, man, that'd be WILD... I know that, because it's MMA now, that "remote" possibility is actually a (somewhat) distant white elephant in the room, in the far back of all of our minds... Because i DO think we're all wondering: _Is_ Izzy gonna actually SHOOT a takedown on Pereira?? (..."Because if he DID win _that_ way, wouldn't he/isn't he privately afraid that the narrative/takeaway will be that he was too scared to actually TRY to avenge his kickboxing losses with an appropriately kickboxing-decided outcome/win??") I myself am definitely wondering that. I don't think we wanna see THIS thing, between THESE two bad-asses, decided by an UNforced cop-out strategy "to just WIN" by resorting to some anticlimactic contest of their lesser, less-relevant abilities/skillsets - we wanna see them FUCKING BANG. (!!!)
@@justinklenk I'm actually thinking Pereira might try to wrestle, even when it's unsuccessful it can open up shots.
All my homies love Weili
Anybody in the weird spot of feeling like you don't want Izzy to lose and you think Alex might be able to get the job done a little bit. So you're worried 😂
Dude I can’t lie, I’ve felt this for months
I have the opposite, I really want Alex to win but I feel like he's going to lose lmao
