cant wait for him to make his flyweight debut!
nice profile picture
Also exited
Yes he could be a great future atom weight champ 😅
Maybe he changes his gender and goes down to women's strawweight to dethrone rose
@@starlight9586 your late bud , he already said in his interview after he beats gastelum he’s making the cut down to fight rose at ufc 283 !
He transformed from DC’s cousin to Usman’s brother
Funny you say that because Usman's actual brother is a heavyweight. Usman got the ripped genetics while his bro got the big bone genetics lol
Lol
@@H.K.5 Yeah, Usman's on the Juice no gifted genetics lol
@@H.K.5 defo juice and EPO
@@PozzaPizz u're definitely one of coby's audience
Heavyweight Cannonier looks like the father of middleweight Cannonier.
funny that, but HW version is younger than the MW version

@@inkwarsandroid3963 NO WAY
@@tayflintstoner2873 😂
He's been knocking out people in HW, and he carries that power to MW, this man is scary
It’s only a matter of time before he claims the strawweight title
Don’t be dumb dude ….he could never lose that much weight, I’ve heard they’re thinking about booking him against Amanda Nunes to bring back the featherweight division.
@@Rugbiii lollll you got me with the first half XD hilarious cheers brother

Lol
His discipline is impressive
kzhead.info/sun/ldCtldCiqYCvl2w/bejne.html Batman VS Harley Quinn...
Fat happy eating everything and undisciplined, Him and Kelvin can relate.
Gastelum should do what he did and drop down two weight classes. He's probably had people telling him it's not possible which is why he hasn't already.
@@morphingtime2000 170*
@@pope9349 he is just not that disciplined
@@pope9349 Nah he's not even a 170er he was never even lean at 170
@@H.K.5 some dudes are just big even if their short, DC and Fedor come to mind, Daniel took himself to near deaths door to make 205 even if he was only like 5’11
2:46 workout an hour before work, work 10 hours, workout another 5 after work. this guy is a machine
but he still had to work as a professional. thats stupid
@@koen4261 🙄
Yeah and still had time for 8 hours sleep, very smart and calculated
Kelvin should hire Jared nutritionists and go back to 170
🤣🤣😂
With Jared's nutritionist he could drop to 145
Imagine a Jared level ripped Gastelum
kelvin's legs are stuck at 155 so a few simple tweaks to his diet then he good for 170
He's too fat and lazy. He'll never win a title at MW, but WW he could have already been the champion. Just lazy BS I think.
This guy is the definition of workethic.
All of the giys in rooster are non stop gym. And than u have guys like him. Non stop and some more.
@Hello Tron yes because being in the top 10 of the ufc middleweight division means that you are not good lol.
@Hello Tron explain
@Hello Tron ?
@Hello Tron You're right, he's great.
This guy is giving me motivation to lose 20-30 lbs
More.
@@jessewrites3819 I lol'd :)
I went from 190 to 175 shredded in 4 month,its doable and it feels so good.I used to think I was in shape because I was big and I was lifting weights but boy was I wrong.I started doing more cardio and doing body weight training instead and the result is incredible.
Do it , you will say i wish i did earlier.. life changing 👊🏾👌🏽
@@pope9349 Cardio is the worst part of working out…the absolute worst
Looking forward to see cannonier vs rumble johnson for the welterweight belt!
UFC marketing/promotion has gotten so much better for the fighters since Conor v Dustin 3.
I think they have finally realised that Conor is nothing but a sinking ship, and they will have to start promoting all their fighters properly if they want to reap long term profits.
Yea, also cannoneir seems like a good dude. Im happy to see guys like him with inspiring stories get some spotlight.
good to see he’s become more disciplined with his diet and taken his training more seriously.
Was just thinking that he made it look easy. That takes incredible discipline over time to accomplish and sustain. Its like he woke up one day and decided to lose 50 lbs and get a six pack. 🤷🏾♂️
Thats a good career and health choice. Fighting guys like Lewis and Ngannou if your undersize enough to be middleweight doesnt seem like a good idea.
MW Cannonier looks fantastic... it's ideal for him.
Naah bro....he definitely wil luk d best in flyweight.....
@@trextne9261 I think at straw weight he will look great
@@Taha4816.He would hve.... Unfortunately ufc dont hve men straw weight division bruh.......😄
@@trextne9261 ufc will open up men straweight from him
"Fat and happy." Haha! I love this dude.
1:30 looking back at that card in Croatia, that was a SIIIIIIIICK card
I like this dude man! He's the man I would like to be if I was a mmartist. Very cool. Seems OK every time. Does not show any kind of emotions. Fearless. Knows how to talk. Add

Haven’t heard Jared talk in a while. Look forward to seeing him this weekend I hope he wins.
Brother, you are a motivator! Stay focused bro!
This is very inspiring to me! Push yourself to the next level, and then do it again and again...until attaining new heights becomes automatic and natural to oneself. 💪
kzhead.info/sun/ldCtldCiqYCvl2w/bejne.html Batman VS Harley Quinn.....
One of my favorite UFC fighters. A true stand up guy.
His transformation is just WOW!
Dude shredded asf and solid as a rock
Love this fighter he make a cool champ. Either way much respect for the change in life style God bless .
He went from Luke Cage to T'Challa.
Yeah...no.
@@Tony-hn8qy Come on, he did look a lot like Luke Cage in his heavyweight days.
Fr
@@Tony-hn8qy Yeah...Yes. You blind?
he is a beast. been watching him fight for many years. he is champion material for sure.
Jared’s the man! 🙌
Great personality, good guy!
When is he fighting Peter Yan?
😄
always liked this guy
I respect him a lot for this
Thanks for the video, UFC-ULTIMATE FIGHTING CHAMPIONSHIP
This is so inspiring
Whoever designed Megan Olivi, thank you for your hard work. She's truly an art piece
You’re welcome
@@johnny614 Absolutely. Abso-fuckin-lutely.
@@realkingrav2265 The reincarnation has arrived to the comment section praise be to the Nords💫
1 hour cardio before work, 10 hours of work and then 5 hours of training after work "it's not a career it's an opportunity"
I love ufc ❤️ I’m a big fan ❤️
My man thinking big, love it
seems like a very considerate sparring partner
This guy doesn't even have a 6 pack though, he has 2 more than that.
Fr dudes shredded af
kzhead.info/sun/ldCtldCiqYCvl2w/bejne.html Batman VS Harley Quinn....
I luv that idea ♥️
He’s the opposite of Anthony Johnson
Literally
This man is Kelvin's lifestyle nemesis. Just the opposite of Kelvin's career and lack of discipline. Struggled many times to make weight at 170 and now at 185 as well.
Good stuff homie
He knocked people out at HW but the thing to remember is that he still has that power in MW just imagine
I was in the house for Cannonier vs Hermanson and i remember he said in an interview after that he silenced the crowd, but he really didnt..I was in the nosebleeds and ppl were going crazy screaming his name! Made me real happy to see the scandinavians show love to an "outsider" who just beat the breaks of their boyXD
Respect for Cannonier
Guy is a beast for what he's done. Kelvin should hop on his diet lol
Cant even believe how he lost all that weight to become middleweight with 6 pack. Great Determination and hard work. Like to see him make 170.
Respect! I'm a fan.
Beast 1h bike session every morning and one later as a warmup
Huge Cannonier fan.
so you're a fan of Cannonier back when he was huge
@@faustosanmartin7532 to be honest I had no idea he competed at that weight. I only learned of him when he was down to where he is now. This doesn't take away from me being a big fan of his though. Hope that's not where you were headed with this question.
Everyone joking about him losing weight but i love how ufc fighters never give a damn so ufc always an example for how to be mentally in life
He is now at middleweight..and he look so solid..
Such a cool dude
Can we just appreciate Megan here She’s very hard working wakes up early and makes even more of an effort to make herself look beautiful Just a pleasing sight (she’s got lovely arms)
When I look at the Hermansson stoppage in these promos lately it looks kind of early. So did the Branch stoppage. Stoppage at 1:18 definitely wasn't a bad stoppage tho.
That angle of the Jack stoppage was bad. On the other angle his face was distorted the whole time like he was in agony. He was eating shots after getting hit with a huge uppercut. The branch stoppage wasn't a bad one also. Branch was getting beat up badly on the ground lol. Cumulative damage.
Lol. I watched both and they were perfect stoppage
What a cool dude!
Hope Jared gets the W on Saturday, he seem's like a really cool guy
God Bless.
Cannonier vs. Namajunas. Can't wait!
He’s intimidating, looking like blade with those sunglasses 😎
I want to see izzy vs jared so bad
It's coming...
Jared is fun to watch... would loved to see him vs Romero... Sadly its unlikely now since Romero moved to bellator
That would have been a BANGER
Just like rumble. Power at any weight..
Cant wait
Lol dude said maybe welterweight in the future. The sad part is he could probably make that weight if he really wanted to while Kelvin the real welterweight can't make that cut. Kelvin should be welterweight champ right now but he just can't get on a diet.
You delusional bruh, no chance in hell Kelvin beats Usman, not even if he was 205 and Usman 170
@@60345 that’s the stupidest thing I’ve heard lol wtf
OG Bobby Johnson
him vs brendan moreno would be the fight of decade.
i respect that weight loss jared did way more then anything kg has done.
what a beast
I was disappointed with his loss to Bobbie but Robert is the top of the top, I hope he finishes Gastelum
Lol I don't see that ever happening. Chin too strong.
Anyone know what was his max weight when he fought in heavyweight?
I‘m looking forward to Cannonier vs Moreno 👌
Cannonier is a beast
Man became his own kid
He did the reverse rumble, AJ went from knocking people out at welterweight to knocking people out at heavyweight and everyone in between😂
Holy crap. I didn't know he was heavy to light to middle weight. So unrecognizable. Can't wait to see his stick figure weight debut.
What do you mean?
@@H.K.5 Justin Bieber
hard to call let alone make bet im torn, love and respect both, ill just enjoy tonights card and keep my cash to 1 side, jeeez its gona be a fight/scrap this 💰and its at the apex, WIN WIN so makes better viewing time as i in uk LETS GOOOO
i clicked on this cause i never thought this man smiles
He did a reverse Anthony Johnson
Dudes a tank lmao look at the training footage
Still can’t believe dude was a heavyweight shits crazy but he’s big asf so it’s not surprising
He looks in great shape at 185. Awesome decision, health-wise and probably career-wise... 💪🏻🙂👍🏻
I need that piece of magic at 02:17
DARRUDE SANDSTORM I BELIVE
How much did he weigh at HW
I actually can’t believe he was a heavyweight
I’m a huge Bobby Knuckles fan but I picked Cannonier
Jared Cannonier vs Brandon Moreno, make it happen, Dana!
DC, Mark Hunt, Gastelum...
I know they’re different but what if DC or Roy Nelson had tried this
jarad is such a G
Smart move
She ain't ugly. 🥰
I don’t get why these fighters overtrain so much. It seems that training 5 plus hours a day would tax the body more than you would gain from it. Don’t get me wrong I think the injuries leading up to fights and also constant leg breaks accruing have something to do with their malnutrition also
You not understanding is probably why you’re both in such different positions in life
@@chaosanimator616 not understanding what? A scientific fact that the body being to taxed will cause injury
Whittaker destroyed him. If he really wants to contend for the title he has to dig deeper and work on sharpening his skills. The top 2 contenders and the champion ain't no joke!!
Imagine if Roy Nelson and DC got down to middle weight with their power?!
We need a Cannonier vs Pantoja for the flyweight title
4:15 Getttt the Hellll outta here
Now we know how Joel Embiid looks like bald.
Damn he does look like him
