The way Lyoto was dropped like a sack of potatoes is one of the coldest moments in ufc history
Factssss dawg... no debate, top 3 submissions in ufc history
I’m glad Jones is in the UFC…I would not want this guy out in the world with nothing to do and nothing to live for…cold blooded!
@@xlaw6272 Jones would have been a menace
Not "one of", it is the coldest moment in combat sports history.
When showing Jone's win over Belfort it is legally required to show Belfort's unsuccessful armbar attempt, regardless of the context of the video. Glad to see the rules are being followed here.
Perhaps, the archives are incomplete
Why is it legally required?
@@AJ-pt9du it was the first time we’ve ever seen jones in danger of losing. This was when he was tearing through the lhw division
@@boborton3605 I’m still in amazement he didn’t tap.
😂😂 this is facts
That Jones superman punch into Guillotine is so fucking brutal btw. Holy shit.
Rima
Say what you want about Jones but there’s no drug that boosts fight IQ, creativity, or brutality. 🐐🐐🐐
@@GoldStandardPlays u wanna bet? It’s called cocaine 😂😂
Another level of martial arts
@@GoldStandardPlays im not sure about brutality
Seeing Machida ragdoll like that when I was a kid blew my mind. Never have I seen that man get worked like that. Jones tore through the LHW division man
Jones was the LHW division.
he nearly dropped jones though
Yea I remember watching this live at a twin peaks with all the homies. The place was packed and loud soon as Machida dropped the place went silent 🤫 . We couldn't stop talking about it on the way home how scary It was.
@@dchapa4478 he's so fuckin strong
@@bokbok501 yes, even Gustafsoon and cormier said as well that Jones is ungodly strong, kinda ironic since his nickname is Bones
Jon let Machida go and his body flopped to the ground lifeless as if his soul fled before he hit the canvas. Insane.
straight up killed him.
One of the coldest finishes in all of MMA tbh.
@@theoneandonly06 Theres a great photo where jons walking away and u see lyoto in the background out cold with his eyes rolled back. as u said coldest finish/photo in mma
It's some Mortal Kombat finish type shit
That one legit scared me, like I thought machida died on his feet the way he crumbled to the mat
Watching that as a Jan fan was a true emotional rollercoaster... At first - Oh that's a Jan! :) And then - Oh... that's Jan... :(
🙈🙉
Who does not love Jan
@@pablogomeztorres892 Adesanya's Salty fans
Hahaha I just watched that part and did the same thing
It's still so incredible to me how many times OSP pulled off the von flue choke. He pulled it off 4 times in the UFC, whereas the man who popularized the submission, Jason Von Flue, has only pulled it off twice in pro MMA. Just wow
as I understand it Jason Von Flue didn't invent it, it existed in wrestling and bjj before but he just made it popular, thus the name.
OSP is the man, looking forward to his next fight.
@@dantearias2182 idk what his plans are but he needs to stay at 205 , he is not a heavyweight
@@italianstalian331 I think he was just filling in that last time though
The saint preux choke
Craig got his ass beat 14:50 minutes straight by Ankalaev and pulled of a triangle from nowhere, mad lad. Plus him maiming Hill's arm was cool too.
He probably has the best ground game at 205 besides glover obviously
BTW how the fuck have I not seen that those are my favorite type of wins lol
Must have been a tight triangle
The guy is an ace on the ground
@@italianstalian331 I would say Glover's wrestling and top control are far superior, but Craig is very fast at snatching things out of nowhere and has a better guard
Paul Craig submitting Ankalaev was insane!
paul craig’s face when the dude jumps on his back after the win ☠️😂
That was mcgregor 😂
@@danny2571 ...no
No
It was Chris "the bad guy" bungard. He's a bellator fighter
The cirkunov submission is very underrated.was incredibile!
It was a Peruvian Necktie.
Meh
Very unsual submission as well
@@Uvenkai Especially because he's doing it upside down. Normally, this is done from top against an opponent in turtle.
@@marcusanthonyPOV yea he shouldve threw his left leg over his back so it would stop him from rolling over, and then he would have had it right there.
UFC did Jan real dirty putting the Glover submission over him, after HIS submission victory LMAO
The ufc did him dirty by showing jan's submission as well?
Jan "legendary polish tapper" did himself dirty by QUITTING against a 42yr old
As a
@@damaster7276 It looks like it's fake, Texeira didn't even grab him under the neck and he was already tapping. Such a strong man got defeted so easily, weird.
@@GoodStuff1992 I mean JUST right after haha
Jones pulled some mortal kombat shit on lyoto lol
I remember seeing Griffin submitting Shogun live, one of the craziest things I’ve ever seen.
Had everybody dropping nachos and shit hahaha
Right? At the time Shogun was ranked as the p4p best LHW in MMA, Dude was a straight killer in Pride, Everybody thought they was sending Forrest in there to die lmao truly one of the greatest upsets of the time, Plus seeing Forrest go on to beat Rampage for the title afterwards was the moment that 100 percent hooked me into MMA, Watched every fight card since.
No you don’t
The bear jew's ground game is a thing of beauty, especially off his back
Who the fuck is bear jew 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Bear jew
@@ArmedChicano weird nickname init
@@hadriancaesar2686 its from the movie Inglorious Bastards.
@@hadriancaesar2686 im a firearm enthusiast bro
I would be questioning every minute of my existence if I was Ankaleav. He just needed to survive 2 more seconds
Gotta be gutted with that. He tapped so quickly as well. I'm sure it was tight but could he have fought through for just a few seconds at least?
Ankalaev did an interview before his last fight saying he quit in that moment. Crazy because Paul would've been cut after that fight.
All of OSP chokes are crazy
Petr yan🇪🇷
You will never see it coming, it's a counter guillotine.
That standing Guillotine is so freakish. And the way Machida just flops to the ground afterwards 😬
i thought machidas dead.
Tbh the Paul Craig sub Vs nzechukwu should've been in here too. He also lost the first 2 rounds in that one, and then caught him in a triangle In the final minute of the 3rd. The fact he's come up clutch like that TWICE is just absurd
also Craig vs Hill. it was insane.
Craig constantly got fed to the undefeated prospects. He's had baptism by fire in the ufc. Time to start showing him some respect in the rankings
@@rockysbigfan he’s gonna rip Krylov’s arm off next month
It's his whole game basically, he's the LHW Ryan Hall. He tries to strike, either gets knocked down or some awkward takedown, then reverts to BJJ to catch guys when they get over-eager to try and finish him on the ground.
I remember watching that Paul Craig triangle live and i fuckin flipped my popcorn everywhere in astonishment
Imagine you had bet on Paul in that fight...
I don’t know how Vitor didn’t break Jon’s arm. I don’t like the guy, but damn, Jon is a hell of a competitor
Ive heard that that arm got sone sort of permanent (or still lingering) damage... cronic shit and stuff
@@pablogomeztorres892 Yeah. Permanent nerve damage. Wild that he just willed his way out.
Untill Francis touches you ,in MMA you are still fresh .
Jones arm popped out of the socket.
I swear how the ufc made #10 Jan winning and right after #9 Jan tapping. I swear they do that shit on purpose
100%
Haven't watched yet but if it isn't Jon's guillotine over Machida I'm unsubscribing
No
Well there you go
Lyoto Machida gave everything that he have for that fight, huge respect for him.
Ankalaev beats Craig 9 times out of 10. This was the 1 out of 10 for Craig.
Can you imagine being a pro fighter and going in the UFC comments to see this being said about you 😂
@@robamiri9665 doubt he really cares tbh he knows it also
@@robamiri9665 Man...I've watched that fight live, and that was a beatdown from Ankalaev until 4:59 of the 3rd round... I hope they rematch one day...
@@robamiri9665 I mean in Ankalaev's defence, it was true because he was beating Craig from piller to post. Chikadze though? Most delusional fighter in the UFC, he even thinks Marvin beat Izzy in their rematch.
@@shadowzeenko3653 bumkalaev tapped fast no heart
You can hear how happy DC is for Glover. I love it. I think we all felt that way when the big OG won the belt. What a legend.
4:16 The way he transitioned into that kimura and locked it in was really nice.
Paul Craig has insane submission skills. Obviously striking is not great, but to be able to throw that submission as beaten and tired as he was (and as quickly as he did too) shows just the insane skill level!
Paul Craig's submission blew my mind, comeback at the last second against a guy who is currently on his way to the top. Dude is wild.
why on earth he tapped ill never understand with that little time left he cant even put you uncouncious that fast especially with basic triangle defence. didnt even try to fight it.
@@MilkyCamps maybe the pro fighter knows more bout the situation than you do....
@@carphucker2973 not sure what more he can know about one of the most basic submissions in BJJ lmao. It's a blood choke not air. I know plenty about it trust me
Showed Jon Bones Jones not once but twice! Love him or hate him he's got sick skills honed to a razor's edge! Straight up DYING to see his next fight!!!
St Preux was shown twice too
Roids king
should've showed lyoto's face on the ground after jones' submission, said it all.
That sub by Paul Craig was CRAZY
7:13 that was nice turn around. That's how you finish
Can we make if official, and change the Von Flue choke to the Saint Preux choke.
Some commentators have it called it the Von Preux choke
Man seeing Jon Jones toying with these Legends is just insane. Goat for a reason. (relax ppl, only inside the cage)
Eyepokes
and then proceed to get his ass handed to him by thiago, reyes and gustafsson
@@dimwitter the gustafsson and santos fight was debatable, the reyes fight however isn't
@@lunafreed reyes came closer than santos
@@dimwitter lol Is that a joke... The Goat fucked all of them up. The Reyes fight tho
The way Jon lets Lyoto go shows perfectly the kind of person Jon is.
Jon Jones submitting Machida is hands down top 3 submission in ufc history… something out of a movie.
Forrest Griffin's reaction to winning the title is how anyone who's ever commented on a video like this one would react if they won the belt in that fashion.
That win wasn't for the belt tho
that was just shoguns debut i think. still unreal and was suuuch a big win at the time
Tito has the greatest post fight celebration of all time. Fight me.
Nah for sure one of the coldest so no debate
Tai tuivasa
@@djhotdawg8435 it's more disgusting than great to me
Derrick Lewis has entered the chat room
@@MrWolfchamp-xi3cu fair enough
Jhon Jones its a freak of nature. A killing machine, the only guy who brought it to him that I saw was Thiago Marreta, to bad that his knee gave out mid fight for no reason.
And Reyes too
and reyes and gustaffson especially reyes who arguably beat him
Jones fucked those knees with those oblique kicks
uncle dana whoever has been putting out these random highlight videos needs a raise okay
the way jon walks away not even looking back at machida is so badass
Being a sociopath is a badass in your book, eh? Hope you get help soon, my friend
@@nobodysfavourite6953 I mean they all fight in a cage, they are all sociopaths in some small forms of ways.
@@auntaqvi5237 you sure about that? You want to compare GSP or Bobby Knuckles to Jones? There are many more examples of class acts in MMA, your excuse is invalid
@@nobodysfavourite6953 you not being able to separate the fighter from the person sounds like a you problem, not a me problem. you do you though
@@auntaqvi5237 plenty of fighters who would never pull off a stunt like that. You enter the cage, leaving your morals behind? You can't call it adrenaline, or "heat of a moment" - there's just too many fighters, who are able to control themselves in such situations. Respect, discipline, humility - this is what martial arts is about, it's not krav maga, where you bite the attackers arteries, or gouge their eyes out. Go, be a disgusting pos somewhere else
Damn the victory over Machinda was a *statement* victory for Jon Jones he just choked the fuck out of him and then know when it was time to let go Machinda just hit the deck like a sack of meat in a slaughterhouse.
Jon Jones will definitely be on this list
should be top 3
How do you show Jan win then next video show him lose 😭🤣🤣😭
Some really awesome fights and finishes. Was fun to watch. Great video
That is a very impressive submission by Paul Craig, damn the guy is a beast. Being heavily purnished on the feet like that, still pull off a triangle out of nowhere
That submission by Jones against Machida has got to be 1 of the nastiest walk offs ever. Now if THAT version of Bones fights in heavyweight... it's over for any of em
One has to wonder after JPs recent injury disclosure if the neck was an issue in the glover fight . Tends to look at that way given how fast he tapped
Who else knew the Number 1 without even needing to watch the video?
Yes, more of this please
Crazy to look back and see when we were all rooting for Tito Ortiz, him scoring that win over Bader was such a moment.
Old school UFC was amazing
"aw hes gonna get smushed" is my favorite call for some reason lol
Always great to see that the big boys can have some submission skills
So Crazy how Ankalaev tapped to Craig with 1 second left in the round! 😲
Jan tapped fast cause Glover injured his neck / spine with that neck crack earlier
Tito Ortiz reaction takes the cake: 2:00 Jones is the GOAT 5:40 You chokin me? Nah I'm chokin you
Perfect awesome submission ✨🤩
Paul craig is one of the most underrated submission fighters in ufc history. His submission game is one of the best the UFC has ever seen. never ever count out paul craig.
Tito Ortiz's post victory celebration will always be my favorite 😂
It suck
@@tonyzamora2761 👍
Obnoxious and annoying is what it is
@@danny2571 👍
@@tonyzamora2761 no
Jones vs Belfort was a classic.
Jan is huge dude, never seen a LHW built like him, can't wait to see him fight again
The good old Von Flue choke impresses me as always.
Ankalev probably beats himself up over that loss to Craig. Maybe he was about to go out, but he only needed like 2 more seconds max.
1
Ankalaev has to hate that Paul Craig highlight. He literally had to hold on for 2 seconds longer 💀
"I clearly felt the nap" - Jon Jones
Clicked to see if Jon’s sub over Machida is in this list. I am now satisfied
They did Jan dirty on this one 🤣🤣
Holy shit i had never seen Craig submit Ankalaev! That was awesome! At first i hated how slow and clumsy Carig and Maerschart looked, buy they have definetly grown on me in the las few years... those guys really bring on the ground!
Forrest vs Shogun was insane
Rules of showing submissions. If you’re showing ankalev being subbed u have to show Paul Craig getting bodied then show his Hail Mary sub When showing jones subbing victor you have to show vitor almost breaking jons arm A sub compilation isn’t complete without an osp von flue choke
10 mins passed so fast I want more!
Paul Craig has to be in a best submission highlight reel ⚔️
The Paul Craig comeback was class 👏
Man Ankalev lit up Paul Craig before getting that squeeze
Never heard of Paul Craig but holy hell what a come back
Wow i never knew ankalaev lost in the ufc, let alone in that fashion my god paul craig
last second worst loss ever to have
If it's a last second loss, zombie losing to a back upper elbow what ever you'd call it was worse
I forgot that for his era Tito was really good
This is a pretty awesome list. Tito pulling off the upset sub on Bader will never not be awesome. Him doing the gravedigger act after like 7 years of losses was special. And holy shit, big ups to paul craig for that submission. That guy he was fighting was terrifying.
Hopefully Paul Craig is in this
Of course he eould
Could have easily put Jones vs Rampage here too. Absolutely dominated LHW
So glad that there are still people who appreciate Jones and his decade long run regardless of all the other out-of-cagebullshit.
Jon Jones is the GOAT 💯💯 Khabib who?? Bones was running through the LHW division during it's apex.. Check the resume
Facts. Khabib isn't even in the top 5
krylov tapped with his left foot, miragliotta didn't see it
Paul craig could of had 2 submissions up if they haven't put jamal hills fight here. what a legend
Technically the Hill fight was ruled as a TKO, not submission
A l'époque, personne n'avait vu venir l'étranglement de Griffin contre Shogun Rua...ce gars a fait des combats mémorables et celui-ci en fait partie, incontestablement.
Yooo that upside down Peruvian neck tie was CRAZY
Great stop by John for Machida don't think I would have caught that being in there.
The fans in the crowd (behind Machida) called it out to the ref
jones and belfort is like battle of the juices “i can do more drugs than you!!!!!”
Jan's standing RNC is beautiful.
6:57 his reaction is literally inhumane, what a beast
Craig didn’t panic, kept his composure and catched Ankalaev who didn’t respect his ground game at all, amazing. It seems nobody from TOP 6 want to fight Ankalaev rn.
Jon choke was brutal the way he lets go and he drops like he's dead than his coach screaming go check on him to get some fan to me it didn't matter that was savage he looked dead
Damn, Jones vs machida was epic fight 🔥 amazing submisions by john bone 🔥
What a fantastic neck tie
Wow Misha! Beautiful finish. 🇨🇦
Jan clearly pissed Uncle Fester with that: "You don't believe in me."
What a graceful comeback by Paul Craig
Jon is a real GOAT
Real cheater
@@rodihernandez8953 keep crying hater. last I checked he was declared innocent of the PED use by USADA
I bet Ankalaev still has nightmares of that triangle, so close to a win with the time ticking away
