Hooper is punching like when i dream i need to punch and i have 0 strenght

I have them too from time to time. Fucking weird man.. there's gotta be a meaning to them. I mean it can't just be coincidence that everybody has the same dream
This guy looks like he came right after math class
Right out the set of modern family
math really makes people violent
Neko LYG looks like you just went to a goth club
You all chat about him like he's a pussy?? I garrentee he'd chew you all up without breaking sweat
Yeah and came out of the class with a B
I'm gonna die from laughing so hard after reading the comments.
Same lmao

I saw glimpses of Tony Ferguson in Hooper. The way he was able to get hurt that much and come back is amazing
Haha Tony ferguson huh. Justin gaethje is the same way he'd get punched up hard and still keep coming forward
Amen to that

this is more true than you think like i just realized i have the exact same body as this guy (height and weight) and we even have the same physique. i just randomly started bjj lessons also who knows maybe ill be up there next lmao

I think they should fight
@@basicburrito1157 Shawn would win, his striking is on another level compared to chase, don’t know about ground game.
@@brandonwilliams8003 I agree with u but I’d still like to see it happen tho
@@basicburrito1157 maybe when chase gets a bit more experience. No training or conditioning can compare to the level of readiness that experience does. And chase has none of that, his striking is sluggish and weak but his ground game is good. You can tell he was a high school wrestler but hasn’t had much experience outside of that
@@brandonwilliams8003 the fact to both of you spelled sean wrong is funny

@@romanian146 bro slow down, first u gotta start training grappling, it's wayyy more important than striking like we saw in this fight, then u gotta talk to your coach about even wanting to fight, then he should get u some amateur fights and then IF u win most of them u can start thinking about going pro, but there will still be a long way to the UFC...
I'm most impressed with both of their resilience. Hooper took some.big shots to the chin and K was choked and arm barred and never considered tapping
16:15 he almost tapped lol
Coach: stop throwing so many kicks Hooper: throws kick at the start of second round.
am i a joke to you
It is a reflex... Fighters don't fight 100% conscious of every single move they make... You can't do undo months of training with 1 word of advice that just silly. Coaches are there to guide fighters, not dictate their moves 1 by 1. These are fighters we are talking about not robots.

Hooper just Got an A on algebra at 2 and went to fight a Hawaiian Strike boxer at 4. #RESPECT
This is the weirdest fight I have ever watched
Gugu Masango man I was thinking the same thing lmao
It’s build and skill with no experience. Like reading a book on building a house then being given the material and told to make it happen
Hawaiian was taking it easy on the guy he could’ve ended it a while ago lol
anonymous papi, I had the same suspicion
It's called a cup... lmfao
So world champ Pavard does free fight aswell :O
haha i knew i recognised his face from somewhere
Only reason I clicked on this video. The resemblance is uncanny.

These two are incredible. Great fighters. Evolution is coming their way. Keep it rolling you two.
U have to give this dude some credit esspecially after surviving that first round

First of all, I thought it was really him
ESTI.18 exact
Damn...so damn true hahaha
PAVAAAAAAAAAAARD
Does anyone else have those dreams where they will throw a punch but it feels like you're underwater and can't land with nay power? This fight was my dream embodied.
I have a dream where I'm taking a jump shot but I can't lift my feet off the ground and then can't let go of the ball. And I just sink into the ground.
Zachary Adams Lol that never happened to me ion know y
I thought I was the only one who had these dreams. I see what you're saying. Lmao
Every time I fight in my dreams that happens. Whenever I throw a punch I think "I didn't think I was this weak"
That's exactly what popped into my head lol
This honestly was the best ufc fight I have ever watched
Hooper's punching looks cartoony, but the kid has great endurance and did his cardio opposite to his opponent.
He is bad, he is nerd... Bla Bla... He is in the ring... He have my respect
Thank you
Better than all these critiques in the comments
The guy is a fuckin killer, what are you all talking bout
Best comment I've seen all year.
i can beat him in the ring.

lmaooo
A good first round, and Incredible toughness from Kawaihae to make it to the decision.
their combined age is 38 years old.. he probably thought thats the coolest shit to say at the moment.
He's not great, but i really liked him in The Social Network.

Here, take this cake.
He did an impressive job not getting knocked out in the first minute
Yeah,didnt expect him to get so many resonably powerful shots to the face and not go down lol
Only just😂😂
Bruce Lee: Be water my friend. Chase Hoopers: Say no more fam.
That guy hooper has heart man, he didn’t get intimidated, he let the other guy gas himself out, and then just dominated the rest of the fight!
-Coach: “what’s your plan Hooper?” -Hooper: “ don’t worry coach, I got it all figured out. First I’m gonna stop his punches with my nose and then I’m gonna throw punches and kicks 5 inches away from him” -Coach: “cool Hooper, good stuff” 👍
shit talk his young and dumb style, but he just beat the guy with it lol. how humiliating is that? hooper can change and improve his fighting. this dude can never unlose this match. maybe he'll ask for a rematch? :D
"Good plan Hooper. You the man, baby"
He showed great skill. Kid never gave up. You mad you're boy got pounded on 2 rounds in a row non stop.
Im pretty sure you didnt watch round 2
No need. One fighter without skills and another without stamina = poor fight
Just imagine they have a rematch after a year or two. Hooper having the power and Kawaihae having sufficient cardio. That's a fight I'd look forward too even after years.
liu yuhan alamar you can “get “ power it’s either something that you have or something that you dont
...I saw more cardio in Hooper.
joerambe 1 He’s 18, he can definitely develop power. If he was 24 you’d be right, your power is pretty much stable after that but he’s still a kid and hasn’t developed all his explosiveness or bone density yet.
@@starwench bullshit, when Hooper puts on weight from muscles his power will go up period.
@@starwench sure buddy. Also either you're smart or you aren't.

@@an_what Well, not every fighter has the KO power of Ngannou. That's not how the world works...
Many jokes here. But the kid is there, fighting, dealing with hits and pain, going for it, at 18 years old. Just saying.
The other guy is young too
Both are really brave and good fighters !
Exactly so many jokes about what he looks like. Lol ppl making fun of him who have never been in his position or in any proper ring for that matter.
For real so many jokes about the kid but he’d fuck anyone in these comments up
Cool guy he kinda weirdchamp
Never give up. Real warrior this kid.
Warriors both of them. Well done Chase! You’re awesome.

Hooper has the heart. The technicalities can be fixed with training.
and some food
@@Pepmins He's a pretty tall ass dude, which already makes them heavy and I don't think they need any more weight for their weight class.

9:30 i think hooper was looking for the other kinda neck
This is like the beginning of a super hero story
He has the heart, now all he has to do is learn to jab and hook and uppercut and overhand and straight and body punch and body hook and body uppercut and elbow and hammerfist and leg kick and body kick and head kick and spin kick and knee and single leg and double leg and body lock and outside trip and inside trip and suplex and engage clinch and thai and double under and back clinch and pressure and use footwork and arm bar and rear naked choke and gogoplata and guillotine and knee bar and twister and neck crank and eat.
@I know I’m gay when I say this but never say never MMA is unpredictable
@I know I’m gay when I say this but I take it you don't grapple? The kid has extremely good Jiu Jitsu (so did his opponent as well) and he wrestled in high school which was less than two years ago and obviously he still wrestles do to his career in MMA. His problem is his standup. Most guys in the UFC (and really just MMA in general) actually have pretty terrible Jiu Jitsu. Of course BJJ is only one side of the spectrum when it comes to MMA but most MMA fighters are jacks of all trades without any formal backgrounds in anything. All of the greats over the years had formal backgrounds in something before transitioning into MMA. Michelle Nicollini, Demian Maia, Ryan Hall, Charles Oliveira, etc are all examples of MMA fighters who have formal backgrounds in Jiu Jitsu and you see how they tore it up over the years. Same can be said about Wrestling with Dominic Cruz, TJ Dillashaw, Chad Mendes, Jon Jones, etc or guys with Karate backgrounds like Lyoto Machida, Michelle Waterson, GSP, Uriah Hall, Stephen Thompson, etc you see my point. When it comes to MMA it's better to master one thing and be decent at everything else, than it is to just be decent at everything and be a master at nothing. Trust me, the kid has potential. His Jiu Jitsu and his Wrestling are both on point, it's his striking that needs a ton of improvement.
@I know I’m gay when I say this but His opponent is a black belt in BJJ though while Hooper is a brown belt so I wouldn't call either of them incompetent. He was just gassed to be honest and that shit will mentally make or break a fighter. Can't tell you how many practices I've had where I let a partner get the better of me with something that I knew how to defend against but was too tired to even try to do so. Trust me, cardio while not synonymous with fight IQ, can still be a motherfucker.
nikola poyukov I don’t think you really understood my comment in the first place. First and foremost his opponent is a black belt in BJJ and even though they are in the same weight class, he’s obviously way bigger and stronger. The reason why he couldn’t take him down aside from already being at a size disadvantage is because he wasn’t setting up his takedowns properly in the first place. On top of that, he has bad stand up and his opponent knew he didn’t want to stand with him, which means he was anticipating the shot even more so he was ready to sprawl. But that’s besides the point because my argument still stands. It is better to be a master at one thing and be decent at everything else than to be decent at everything and a master at nothing. Like I said in my previous comments, the kid has amazing grappling but terrible striking, and you use your striking to set up your shots so that way they don’t become so predictable.
nikola poyukov once again, I said in my previous comment that they are in the same weight class but his opponent has a bigger frame. Come on dude this isn’t rocket science. Use your eyes. Who’s more muscular? Who has the larger body type? Who’s slim/slender? Do you know what cutting water weight is? Because that’s what fighters do. MMA fighters rarely fight at their natural weight and his opponent obviously cuts more weight than he does to get to 145. I take it you’re new to MMA?
Hooper's kicks were useless - does no damage and puts him out of position for a counter. Kawaihae has bad cardio - could've won if he was better conditioned.
Maybe wearing the largest cup ever seen interfered with his kicks
That's true, but with some good coaching and the confidence to throw those kicks, they'll be a great tool.
Kawaihae was impressive stand-up, but that ground game was #sadbad; I expected more of round 1, but as soon as round 2 started Kawaihae was loafing.
Hooper really sacrifices strength for anemia and famine.
whered he go?
still such an exciting fighter packed and loaded with potential

Keep Right Errr I was talking about cardio but if u say so man lol
Just shows that a 2 years difference in age cand be a HUGE cardio difference, especially when does one work constantly on his cardio and the other does not. Most people would say it a thicker framed 20 years old would have advantages over just a 18 years old and may be would be true ined a very short of fight but when it does go ined to a second and then third round the kid with the history of cardio work and a 2 years younger age takes the advantages. - I do not usually liked to watch this stuff but THIS was very a good bout of fighting and well worthed watching tp me.
