Glover looks like a dad fighting his daughter past boyfriends lol
💀💀
u hit right on the nail
Lmao that made me laugh
@Peter Griffin 3 month old account Someone's household is ass
@Peter Griffin You are 😉
That man is pure heart. It doesn’t matter if he gets the belt or not, he’s a champion in his own right 🥋✊🏼
Pure champion in my eyes no matter what.
@@jededward7313 Glover Teixeira will be the champion himself as well💪💪💪👍
he did it!!!!
And newwwwww
@@Alexandervaldes017...... 42years old.....
This was fucking awesome. What an absolute dude. Gets rocked like crazy, doesn't panic, does intelligent stuff and brings fights back from the brink. Amazing.
Yup. Love that they didn't just show a finishing montage and actually gave us a story. Made him look like a damn hero instead of a monster like they do with just about everyone else. Just like you said. Fucking awesome.
Yes exactly seeing the same narrative that they just plow through the division got stale this is refreshing
...an absolute dude...
Most of the time it looks like now he's done But proves me wrong, how does he keep on coming back like that, very tough baldy head 😁
Getting another title shot 7 and a half years later, what a journey.
@Peter Griffin Bruh. U got some other work than talking shit in the sub comments?
@Peter Griffin I don’t get it how is that a casual comment
@Peter Griffin you have over 100 comments on this channel most of them being “casual” You seem more like a casual my dude.
@@ethanrichardson855 brother, he tells about himself
And winning it will be the top of the cherry
Glover is the real zombie. Unless you KO him stiff like Rumble and Gus did, he will always, inhumanly recover like a mad man and most likely beat your ass.
For real, hes a nightmare
Jones dominated him over 5 rounds so I guess you can do that as well?🤷
@@jamesavery5152 Ped’s can do that for a guy 🤷
@@ItNeverBeganBuddyBoyo Corey Anderson and Phil Davis also dominated Glover. So this guys point is invalid even though he wants to show that Glover never gives up
@@jamesavery5152 Jones is 0-3 against the authorities
Glovers been 40 yrs old for the last 5 yrs
Hagahahaha
Its like a father teaching his kids how to behave.
@Peter Griffin do everybody a favour and leave the mma community alone
@Peter Griffin get a job
Yeah I body slam my kids when the don't behave
Now he is the champ in the age of 42 ... He never give up. His journey make me cry what a inspiration...
I honestly don’t care if he loses his first title defense, him winning the belt is already a legendary moment that no one will forget.
Glover's story is so inpirational. Gets rocked in almost every fight but always finds a way
No doubt Jan is going to rocked him jajaja. Exciting AF for this title match 🔥
@@ignaciojaque9983 mr wrong
@@stepdaddy4196 I gladly accept this surprise, I can say that I am really excited to see the total dominance of glover. PS: it even made me make money lol, since I bet on rounds, Initially left money on Glover until round 3 and was waiting for the fourth to change the money to Jan. Everything goes for a reason😌
That Gustafsson knockout is probably my favourite of all time. That version of Gustafsson on that night would have beaten anybody, no shame in taking that loss for Texeira.
After Gustafson put his finger 5 inches in glover's eye
@Peter Griffin This is getting out of control i thought you just did this once but you actually spend your freetime typing troll comments and shit on youtube videos, i truly feel sorry for you. Im not trying to be mean or funny but im genuinly worried about your wellbeing. And i get that you are not serious and stuff but that almost makes it worse. Its actually very concerning behaviour.
@@williamstrom9755 OMG 😂😭🤣💀
@@williamstrom9755 Man i saw him in a 4 different comments in a different channels this guy got a free time to make a nuclear bomb
Hes probably a bot. Just joined 3 months and 145 comments
I forgot how vicious Santos' g&p was on Glover. He really laid it on him, and that makes the comeback even more impressive.
and people talking about polish power everyone has power lets see what happens 👍👍
Santos is dangerous, if he passed Glover I would bet on him against Jan. But Glover ground game is dope
i officially become his fans after watching this
@Peter Griffin at some point u were a casual as well let people be.
dude loves to bag. And in mount he really goes for the finish
What a casual.
@@Kvngz What a dumb response lmao
Nothing wrong with being a casual. The guy enjoys being a casual. Yall think you are the real sht if you know more info about an entertainment sport.
Man it would be so crazy if Glover wins at his age and the journey hes been through in his career win lose or draw Glover is a legend
💯 HOF
@Peter Griffin 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@Peter Griffin Nice try John Morgan
Only 4 years of diff between them
I just don’t know who root for on Saturday. Jan is such a likeable dude, and he’s pure box office with the striking power he has. On the other hand, Glover is an absolute warrior and it would be a fairytale ending to his career if he could win the belt. Both fighters are just amazing ambassadors for the sport, can’t wait to see the fight.
I'm rooting for glover but Jan is my bet. He's just to well rounded and will rock glover of he stands and trades
i feel like glover can recover from these other guys. but if jan hits him this clean oof, to be fair tho santos can probably hit almost as hard as jan so who knows
fyi its ok to root for both
Glover deserves it more than anyone, top 5 legend in my opinion! Glad he won, Jan looked a bit like he didn't want to defend the belt as much as Glover wanted to take it!
"It's not as hard you can hit but as hard you can get hitted and keep moving forward", Rocky Balboa and Glover Texeira.
Glover is like a fine wine, been getting better with age! He looks in great shape even at 42!!
yo chill with that, if Paolo reads this Glover could be in danger
The Rocky line at the end 🙏 Glover is a true OG
@Peter Griffin ok
@Peter Griffin bot
@Peter Griffin ok bud your favorite fighters are probably Conor McGregor and Sean O'Malley
"....it's how hard you can get hit and keep coming forward." - never a truer MMA maxim expressed.
The way he survived vs Coutelaba and Marreta Santos, that's heart.
Him destroying Ion was SO satisfying.
Gustafsson looked incredible wow. Those uppercuts are insane.
Gustafsson that night was just magical
And now he’s the champ, what a legend 👑
This man is a true definition of kill or be killed. Unless he is knock out cold, his opponents are always in a vulnerable state. He is more dangerous when he gets hurt because he comes at his opponent like a zombie when the alarm rings and hurting him will not stopped him unless you take his head off his shoulder. What a fighter, what a heart.
Like he said in Embedded, the real Rocky of the MMA🔥
He looks like a Brazilian Evander Holyfield.
More like Brazilian George Foreman 🥊
my heart is with Glover...hope he achieves his life dream...a true Rocky story
Man! Glover is fucking dangerous he is a better fighter now than when he was on a 25 fight win streak and fought Jones.
He fell in love with his hands early in his ufc career and that got him exposed when fought better strikers like rumble and gus lately he’s fallen back on his grappling and it’s proven to be the best in the division showed great iq by reverting his style late in his career and that’s how he got a title shot at 40 years old and almost 20 years into his mma career
Honestly think he has a decent chance against Jan
@Peter Griffin why
@@smittywerbenjagermanjensen4737 He is calling everyone casual, just someone who has nothing to do
@Peter Griffin i see you everywhere. You don't have a job do you?
Isn't he 42?
Glover always finds a way
Big respect to this warrior
Gotta love how after his loss to Gustafson the ufc tried to get fighters to make a name off him and he’s like nah
True
Accurate 😅😅👌🏾
Glover representa a garra dos brasileiros no octógono.
"its not about how hard you hit, its about how hard you can get hit and keep getting forward"
Proud of him, he’s come along way since his UFC Debut and the Jones title fight, if he wins this Saturday… that will be incredible 👏🏼🏆
So proud and happy for Glover, been following him since 2015 and never really thought he got make it to the top again, as he said its not easy. But the heart Glover has is way bigger than any skill set, he has a do or die mentality, this man gets rocked in almost every fight and get in to spots where its usually over, but not with Glover , he survives and comes on top. Massive respect and I real feel happy for him more than any other fighter winning a title.
styles make match ups, imagine if the UFC would had respected the rankings, just imagine what this man would had done to izzy.. ufff Glover's ground game is just outstanding, what a legend! really like Jan but damn come on if anyone deserves to get the title is this man!
You are definitely undermining Izzy's abilities
@@simonboyane1140 Is he though? Glover has beaten up much bigger guys and much better guys on the ground, Izzy might be 6'4, so is Lionheart Smith, yet Glover put a beating on him, Izzy has good striking but guess what, so does Thiago Santos and again, Glover made mincemeat of him too, so no, Glover wins against Izzy after getting him down.
Izzy's a better striker than Gus and look what Gus did to him
@@andrewstokes6623 I get your point. The thing is it's easy to take Izzy down if he's not worried about your striking. Jan is a kickboxer and powerful, hence Izzy had many things to worry about. I agree though that Glover is an absolute animal because he just keeps on coming unless if you knock him out
@@andrewstokes6623 exactly! look at what Jan did to izzy on the ground! and Glover's ground game is way better, more vicious, Jan just kept izzy down without doing much damage while Glover... come on do we really need to spell it out to you kids?
Man I just hate it when both fighters are so damn likeable. Jan and Glover represent the best of fighters. Will be heartbroken to see either man lose.
I have inspired by so many great people and now Glover is one of them.. Imagine become champion at age of 42 in MMA is almost impossible but here Glover is the proof
Glover is definitely one of the greats carrying the torch for BJJ. Incredible scrabbles and recovery to submission.
Inspirador, Glover Teixeira!
God damn. Glover really fought everyone. What a warrior
Jon Jones fought most of them in this video 😂
Na torcida Glovão 🇧🇷
Glover "Just never give up " teixeira 🙌🐐Legend
One of the most inspirational human beings to have ever exist
That Gustafsson performance was probably his best, damn he was so quick that fight
Legendary run from this guy, such a humble beast.
Glover has to be the scariest in the weight class to face. Man is all heart. He doesn't stop. He is a Terminator. Knock him down as many times as U want. Keeps coming
Can't believe he pulled it off, happy for him!
Such an inspiration i always feel late in my life but glover thanks man !❤️
I pray glovers physical and mental health stays sound as he goes through his life
Lovin the Rocky reference! Keep fighting the good fight brotha
i love this man. An inspiration
With the performances and adversity glover has overcome in his fights ,you cannot hate on this man. Even tho I think Jan is a monster and also like him,I'm rooting for glover
What a journey! Legend already, love this mans attitude and story
Congradulations GLOVER, You earned every bit of it.
Wow! That’s determination and heart
He can take more punishment than any fighter I’ve seen, and still win
"It's not how hard you can hit, Its how hard you can GET hit and keep coming forward." ABSOLUTELY CHAMPION WORDS !
When he lifted lion heart off the ground 🥺
Anthony got A LOT of heart damn.
That was 🏳️🌈
Great vid!
Glover fighting at 42 is a slap on the faces of fighters like Khabib and Cejudo who retired at 30 and claim to be the GOAT.
after whole video, the quote from glover made me goosebumps
I just loved Teixeira's story 💯 Unreal 🔥
I am so touched by great fighter Teixeira. Keep going Man, you are the best of best.
That Alexander Gustafson knock out was one of the best knock outs I've ever seen.
Glover, you're a motivation. Thanks.
This guy is super humble, every time ge checks out on the opponent to see if everything is ok
I almost feel like glove doesn’t mind getting dropped. That way he can just grab a leg or something😂
he can be so proud of what he has made ....oh man.a real fighter ...he had earn that more than any other fighter.glover is the real deal....congrets bro ,i hope you will be champ for a long long time....
He is a warrior. Win or lose, tremendous respect!!!
How can you not love this guy. He is a WARRIOR!!
Incredible… what a legend.
Such an inspirational fighters...after the hard work n ups and downs.. Congrats Glover u deserve to be a champion
These episode are awesome
His rocky quote at the end makes me want him to win
Congratulations to this Champ. An inspiration
Oh my god he almost killed Lionheart, that was painful to watch
Always loved Glover, humble guy with my favorite skill sets. Good boxing and jiu jitsu
inspiration! Warrior heart
Não importa se GLOVER TEIXEIRA fosse derrotado, pois suas lutas são muito emocionantes muita garra , ele com certeza é uma inspiração para vários lutadores
Honestly by lookin at this vid, it’s hard not to see Jan win.
hey guess what?
Yeah.. this aged well
Surprising Outcome TBH. Glover pulled it off!
Legend
Does anyone else get reminded of Norm McDonald when Glover talks?!?
GREAT man !

Man! i love this guy,.. Big respect to this warrior
